One would think the Laxative Idea
in a cough syrup should have been
advanced long before It was. It seems
the only rational remedy for Coughs
and Colds would be to move the bow
els and clean the mucous membranes
of the throat and lungs at the same
time. Kennedy's Laxative Honey and
Tar does this. It is the original Lax
ative Cough Syrup, the best known
remedy for Coughs. Colds, Whooping
Cough, etc. Tastes good ;Ti'id harm

ILL 1ST REGISTER
xo
'SWEARING IN" AT
PRIMARY ELECTION.
While Attorneys Differ on the Subject
of Registration for the Primaries,
Yet It Is Agreed by All That Each
Voter Should Register to Re Sure
of Ills Vote nt the niiimrios Held
That "Swearing In" by Six Free
holders Is Impractical at Prinuiry
Election.
There Is a wide difference, of opin
ion In the various counties of the
state, as to whether voters who have
not registered can vote In the primary
election bv havlne six freeholders as
,. ' ., . --
witnesses, the same as In a general
,
i ii . ii i.
The primary law Is not explicit1
upon that point and attorneys differ
L it 0i. i ., .i. ...
rangements are being made to send
the "freeholder blank." to the polls.
In other counties it Is held that no
vote can be "sworn In" at the pri
maries, but that the voter must have
registered previously.
It Is conceded In all the counties
that the safest way is to require every
voter to register In advance of the
primary election as required by law.
Registration for the primary election
closes at 5 o'clock on April 10. In
speaking of this subject the Salem
Statesman says:
Some more doubts have arisen '
under the primary election law. The
county clerk Is In doubt whether he
will be supposed to send out with the
supplies an Installment of reglstra- j
tion blanks "A" for use at the polls
on the day of primary election. !
The doubt is as to whether a voter
who has not registered while the
books are open can go to the primary
accompanied by six freeholders and
be registered at that time with the
light to vote. The doubt brings with
it the fear that in n precinct with a
largo numner or votes, a u zen men .
freeholders" provision would so block ;
the work as to make It practically ,
impossible to get all the voting done
during the seven hours allotted for the
election. This fear is all the more ;
plausible since the change In the law ,
which makes It the duty of the Judges ;
of election to take the verification In
such cases. !
Hut a reading of the law indicates '
to a layman at least that the right of
registration by the "six freeholders" j
process Is guaranteed to the voter at ;
the primary election. The only por-j
tion of the law which would indicate;
a contrary view Is contained In the
sec...... ... .,.e ,......,, ..... .... ... r -
vldes that an elector must state bis I
political alliances at the time of reg
istration. A part of that section reads: "Xo
elector shall be qualified to vote, nor
permitted to vote at any such primary
nominating election required by this
law. and it shall be unlawful for him
to offer to do so. unless he shall be
registered as above required, as a
member of one of the political par
ties choosing and nominating its can
didates." etc., but another part of this
same section says: I
0,.,.,-t.lu.l tl.-.t n.,tlin,r in tt.iu In vv
i shall be construed to deprive any
I elector of the right to register and
i vote at any primary nominating elec
I tion required by this law. on his com
I plying with the special provisions of
this law. In the same manner that he
is permitted by the general laws to j
register and vote at a general elec- j
tion." j
Then section 42 of the primary law
pays that section 2S75 of the code
"shall apply to and is hereby made 1
applicable to primary nominating 1
elections held under this law, so far
as not In conflict herewith." Section
:v7j of the cole provides that If the
elector is not iegistere.1 In the pre
cinct where he applies to vote, he
shall be considered challenged and
shall be required to swear to the
blank "A." and In addition must pro
cure six freeholders to swear to his
qualifications This is to be done be
fore the Judges of election.
Protect Proprietary Medicines.
Did It ever occur to you that pro
prietary medicines are a blessing to
mankind generally? The good ons
have long continued sale; the poor
ones have short life and soon leave
the market.
It we had to depend entirely upon
physicians and druggists It would be
expensive and very Inconvenient at
times, especially In the country and
at night when neither could be con
veniently reached. For nearly 40
years Boschre's German Syrup has
been used In many families and
thousands of lives have been saved
by Its use, when It was Impossible to
reach a physician. German Syrup Is
the best household remedy for coughs,
colds, throat and lung trouble. It
quickly relieves the hacking cough,
loosens the phlegm, and brings sound
and refreshing sleep. Twenty-five

Lewiston Brunch.
"Unless something unforseen hap
pens the Lewlston-Rlparla branch
line will be completed Into Lewlston
by July 1." was the statement of En
gineer N. C. Brandon, who has charge
of the construction of the railroad,
made to a Lewlston Tribune reporter
las tnight at the Bollinger. Mr. Bran
don arrived In the city last evening In
company with Contractors, Erlckson
& Peterson, and tomorrow morning
they will leave by boat for an Inspec
tion of the work done down the river.
Mr. Brandon said that the work
was now half completed and the con
tractors had only been employed
steadily on the work for about four
months. The big Bucyrus steam
shovel that was purchased In the
east at a cost of $10,000, Is rendering
good service In ballasting the roadbed
