The Cause of Many
Sudden Deaths.
There is a disease prevailing In this
eountry most dangerous Iwcause so decep-
. live. .Manysiumen
I deaths are caused
i by it heart dis
' ease, pneumonia,
! heart failure or
' apoplexy arc often
the result of kid
ney disease. If
kidney trouble is
' allowed toudvauce
thekidnev-poison-
ed blood will at
tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of
the bladder, or the kiduevs themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from a derangement of the kidneys and
cure is obtained quickest by a proper
treatment of the kidneys. If you are feel
ing badly you can make no 'mistake by
taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the
great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
It corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pair in passing it. and over
comes that unpleasam. necessity of being
compelled to go often through the day,
and to get up 'many times during the
sight. The mild and the extraordinary
efieet of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
It stands the highest for its wonderful
enres of the most distressing cases.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle of this wonderful new dis
covery and a book that tells all alout it,
both sent free by mail. Address, Dr. Kil
mer & Co., Biiighamton, N. Y. When
writing mention reading this generous
offer in this paper. Don't make any
mistake, but rememler the name, Sw amp
Root, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the
address, Biiighamton, N. Y., on every
bottle.

to be 1 25 years of age. The record of
her birth, at Granada, Andalusia, In

of April 8, W. J. Butler, of 01725

m which were found three $10 gold
pieces and a written request to give
the body a Christian burial.
A bill has now been prepared by the
Brewers' and Wholesale Liquor Deal
ers' association, through the Royal
Arch, which Is to be submitted to the
voters In the June election. In the
preamble of the new bill It Is provid
ed that "this net shall not apply to
the manufacture or sale of liquors at
wholesale by brewers, distillers, vint
ners or wholesale liquor dealers.'
This takes It out of the hands of the
sovereign people to decide whether
they will have liquor sold by wholesale
in their community.
Then the new bill provides only for
elections In single precincts and
against voting by counties, cities,
towns or any communities where
there is more than one voting pre
cinct. No grouping of precincts Is
allowed. So that If this bill should
pass nine-tenths of a town might want
to close the saloon, but one precinct,
made up of the lowest riff-raff in
town, could continue to run a section
of Sodom n spite of all the other vot-

ers. With tne Brewers anil wnoiesai
ers unrestricted and no possibility of
a township vote, the present law
would be nullified.
The proposed liquor bill would re
quire 30 per cent of all voters on pe
tition in each precinct before local
option could be voted on. The pres
ent law requires but 10 per cent. To
vote on a constitutional amendment
under the Initiative only requires g
per cent, the number used by tl.e
liquor men to submit their amend
ment to a vote in June.
Five per cent can order an election
under the referendum in all matters
but local option. But they would In
crease the required number In this
from 10 per cent of the legal voters
to 30 per cent almost four times the
required number under the Initiative,
and six time the number required
for a referendum vote. By what rule
of fairness is such a burden put on the
temperance people? There are many
men who want to clean up their town
and will vote "no saloons," who, for
business reasons, do not like to sign
petitions for local option elections.
When the ratio Is increased.- the sa-
loonists will use their tactics of boy
cotting the signers. In order to pre
vent the holding of the election.
Under thiH bill when the election
has been held. If it goes against the
saloon, any voter can contest the elec
tion, throw the matter Into the court
for months, thus enabling one to
withstand the will, of all. "The coun
ty Judge shall have full and final
jurisdiction to hear and determine the
merits of such proceedings." No right
of appeal!
Then when the judge decides that
the election was lawful and that It In-
contestnbly carried prohibition, the
saloon keepers shall be given 90 days,
or three months, before It becomes
unlawful. Finally, if they continue to
sell and are apprehended and convict
ed, the penalties are cut down by
their bill to a minimum, "shall be
fined anywhere from nothing to not
more than $250 for the first offense,
and shall for any, subsequent offense
be fined not more than $500."
There Is no prison penalty attached
to the violation of this law, no mat
ter how many times repeated. A
small fine, periodically exacted, would
be only about as expensive as a license
fre: In shoct the bill Is framed to
add to' the difficulties of calling an
election, of securing a majority, of
having the new ordinance established,
of convicting lawbreakers under It,
and finally the penalties arc ridicu
lously small; all In the Interest of the
law-breakers.
The serious part of the new, bill Is
this: "Nothing contained In any of the
sections of this act shall In any man
ner affect the right of any bona fide
wholesale dealer, brewer, distiller or
vlnener in said precinct to sell or tg
deliver intoxicating liquor at whole
sale." This takes away from the people
tho right to prohibit the liquor busi
ness, except one feature of It. Again
the bill contains a trick to count u.l
blank votes In favor of the saloon. It
provides that the question shall only
be submitted at the biennial election.
It Is known that at this election, with
a full ticket In the field, a Inrge num
ber of voters only vote for two or
three officers, and leave the rest of
the ballot blank,
EIGHT STAMPS SELL FOR $2501.
Rave Collection Having Enormous
Price In New York.
Eight United States postage stamps
of a face value of $1.75, sold at auc
tion In this city Saturday for $2601
says the New York World. This la
the highest price brought by stamps
at any sale here this season and prob
ably the highest In years.
The stamps were a part of the A. H.
Scholle collection, under the hammer
at the Collectors' club, 24 West 26th
street. Thc-y are a full set of the
August 14, 1S61 issue. The buyer, J.
M. Bartels & Co., Is a Boston firm,
which has acted as agent for the
United States government In acquiring
stamps for Its collection of all Issues.
The government lacks this set, and In
all likelihood Is the real purchaser.
The lsyue has an interesting history.
When the civil war began the federal
government was obliged to get out
new Irene in a hurry for use In th
north. This wns because the postof
flees In the south had millions of
dollars worth of stamps, and their
validity would "give aid and comfort
to the confederacy. Therefore, the
Issue of August 14 was put forth. It
consisted of 1, 3, 5, 10, 12, 24, 30 one
90-cent stnmps. They were unsatls,
factory In design and quality, and
new Issue was put out a month later,
Hence, their scarcity now. I
The August, 1881, set Is the oldest
which is still valid. If ths buyer of
the set wished to use them they
would carry letters and parcels now
up to their face -alue of $1.75. They
are in the condition most priced by
collectors with the gum still on
them.
William Knudsen. of this city,
picked them up In a little shop In
Denmark or Rwfeden some time ago. i
The dealer did rot know their value
and sold thpm at a small price. Knud
sen sold- them at a large dvance to
a fellow collector here, who sold
them to a dealer. At the Scholle sale
they were offered at an upset price
of $2500, and several bidders were
ready to give that much.

myself aright with those of my fellow
citizens, who are laboring under the
misapprehension as to my policy In
relation to Normal schools, would
briefly say that I favor two Normal
schools, one In eastern Oregon and
one In western Oregon, and further,
I shall be in favor of allowing the
