ulted In uncovering numerous ob-
lects which indicated that the cave
had once been n regular place of res
idence for a number of people,
though they did not possess a high
i gree of civilization. On the contrary.
they represented very primitive modes
of living. Other circumstances Indi
cated that the time when the Spy man
made use of this queer home must
have been many thousand years ago.

permit such an animal to exist there

quires semi-tropical surroundings.
Again, the rudeness of his weapons
and utensils showed that the Spy man
must have preceded even the barbaric
age of Europe. Some of the unveri

these discoveries were that he dated

that not half of the voters of Oregon
would vote on senator. The result
proved that the politicians were out
of touch with the sentiment of the
people.
Out of a total vote of 93,302 cast
for supreme judge at the June elec
tion ln this state, 91,936 votes were
cast for United States senator as fol
lows: Bourne, 4J.53S; Gearin, 39.417;
Paget (prohibition), 4(10, und Slmola

President Roosevelt and
Hitchcock began at the root of the
land frauds, to investigate. The first
wholesale crookedness in the general
land office was discovered during
Hermann's administration, and natur
ally all official eyes were turned to
Oregon Hermann's home.
The Oregonian whines that land
frauds are not being prosecuted with
equal vigor in California. Washington
or Idaho. Just wait.
When the "head and front of the
offending" is dealt witn In Oregon,
then the turn of the other Pacific!
coast slates will come. If there are;
land frauds In California, Idaho or!
Washington, they will be ferreted out. ,
Meanwhile let us attend to Oregon. I
Hermann, whom the Oregonian has j
boosted for congress and for other!
official positions from "time Imme
morial, is chiefly to blame for Ore-j
gon's dilemma. Had he remained ,
true to his trust, had he conducted!
the general land office in an honest'
and efficient manner, Instead of open
ing It to negotiations with the Puten
alleged, Oregon would not now be
plunged into this disgrace.
The president and Secretary Hitch
cock are to be congratulated upon the
thoroughness with which they have
Investigated conditions ln Oregon.
Oregon may not be the rottenest state
on the Pacific slope. Quite likely It Is
not, but since the chier offender In
the land office irregularities is an
Oregonian, why should we complain
If Oregon is put upon the rack first?
Hereafter let us be more careful
In choice of public officials. Hun-
choice for United States senator.
This example is worthy the emula
tion of Iowa, where it said the spirit
of popular government is rampant.
Governor Cummins, who is u candi
date for runoniination, expects to be
swept into office on this movement.
! He thinks a great national convention
is necessary, and has called such to
i meet in Des Moines on September 5.
I A national convention can do noth
' lug. The mass of the people must
i move first. Slates must fall Into line.
following the lead of Oregon und cast
a popular vole on United States sen
ator, place their legislators under
pledges Bimllar to statement No. 1,
and ere they are aware the popular
election of United States senators will
be ln force without warrant of law or

The New York, New Haven & Hart
ford railroad Is at present engaged ln
a very Interesting experiment, writes
Proughton Krandenberg In tho Tech
nical World Magazine, which, strictly
speaking. Is hardly such any longer,
as Its efforts have been crowned with
success from the beginning.
The road covers the lower linlf of
New England with nn astounding net
work of lines, and as tt result of the
opening of the richer lands of the west
and south, the men who had been
tolling on the Impoverished New Eng
land farms, small and stony, forsook
them, took their families, ami left
New Englund.
The price of land declined until
there came to be many farms that
could be bought for $1 an ucre and
at Inst a great number that were en
tirely abandoned. By reason of the
road carrying to and fro Italians who
had been landed In New York and
wished to go to the cotton mills of
Lowell or the shoe shops of Lynn, etc.,
ond Italians who had landed in Bos
ton and wished to go to New York,
the news of these abandoned farms
came to be noised about among tho
Italians and they begun to take them
up.
The men would work ln the near
est factory and the women and chil
dren cultivate the ground. The Ital
ian Is a born irrigator; and now, all
along the New Haven road, can be
seen garden-like estates that were
once abandoned by their previous
owners. The road was quick to see
the trend of the Italian and Is bent
on encouraging It. It Is probable that
a combined agricultural and Indus
trial population of Italians, Poles and
Portuguese, aggregating millions In
number, will be gained to the terri
tory traversed by the road.

PURELY VEGETABLE
The fact that S. S. S. is a purely vegetable preparation, containlnif not
Ute slightest trace of mineral in any form, lias been one of the strongest
points in its favor during; its forty years of existence. It 18 recognized
everywhere not only ns the best of all blood purifiers, but the one medicine
that can be taken with nbsoltite safety by the youngest child or the oldest
member tf the family. Next in importance to removing the cause of any
disease is the condition in which the system is left after a course of medical
treatment. Medicines containing mercury, potash or other strong mineral
ingredients often do permanent injury by eating ont the delicate lining and
tissues of the stomach, producing chronic dyspepsia, unfavorably affecting
the bowels and so damaging the system that even if the original cause ol
the disease has been removed,, it is left in
such a deranged and weakened condition that $f 000 REWARD
the health is permanently impaired. S. Si S. i
enjoys the distinction of being the only blood F NOT PURELY
medicine on the market that does not contain wppfAnLE
a mineral property in some form., Being made VEwt I AOI
entirely of roots, herbs and barks it is absolutely
harmless to any part of the system, and while curing disease adds strengtn
and health to every part of the body. Si S. S. removes all poisons, freshens
and purifies the blood and gives better and more lasting results than any
other blood medicine. S. S. S. is the very best treatment for Rheumatism,
Catarrh, Scrofula, Sores and Ulcers, Skin Diseases, Contagious Blood Poison
and all troubles due to an impure or poisoned blood supply. Besides being
the King of blood purifiers S. S. S. is the best and most invigorating of ail

He has 100 of these houses scattered

I told my love with many sighs that
she was sweet and sweeter;
That all the world held not a prize
that I should deem completer;
1 vowed upon my bonded knees she
fairer was than others,
Including all the dainty belles and
also all their mothers,
I swore by cupId and his bow that In
the wide creation
She. she alone, was heaven-sent to
prove my life's salvation.
I told her divers things like these.

Hut she -she merely smiled and said.
"I think you give me taffy."'
That I was shoeek I here admit; it
seemed a cataclysm.
To drop from my height of love to
such a black abysm.
I groped In anguish for a time, and
suffered most extremely.
Hut dwelling on that sorrow now, I
judge, were scarcely seemly.
For time and I have cooled since

the Holy Roller Idiocy.
Oregon has had enough of this de
praved Ilk. Corvallls made a mistake
three years ago in not hanging Cref
field, Instead of giving him a coat of
tar and feathers. Hud he been
hanged at that time, aa he should
have been, this last phase of the
curse would not have been visited
upon society.
Such Idiocy, such criminal frenzy
demands harsh language and harsh
treatment. People cannot be mod
erate in dealing with such wanton
dreds of honest men, .nousands oflanj premeditated crime in the name
them are to be found in all parties in
Oregon. Why should a political trick
ster, a man whose official record has
ever been the open subject of criti
cism be kept at the forefront always,
as the representative of the splendid
manhood of Oregon, when other men
equally able and much more satis
factory, are turned down year after
year In elections and appointments?
It Is a lesson for Oregon.
Mental conditions have a great deal
to do with preventing Illness. Worry
Is the parent of disease. Whatever he
the reason for It, worry Is an Im
mensely hostile agent In human life,
ravaging happiness and depleting vital
force. If you drift Into a habit of
chronic worry or If you constantly
fear disaster or let your mind -dwell
on some catastrophe that may happen
you will so weaken yourself that you
cannot stand against attacks of Ill
ness. The mind has enormous power
over the body and this Is the philoso
phic reason why. In countless- In
stances, there Is such a thing att bene-

It recited Mr. Geer's many amiable

This fool Creffleld woman who has
been at large In Oregon and Wash

menace to society. She had driven

than herself, to murder her own

the murder of the depraved leader of
the rabble.

suffers a good deal of Irritation from
the frequent death and as frequent
resurrection In the newspapers of
Pope Capon.
It speaks as follows: "Father Ga-
pon Is becoming a public nuisance. Is
he dead, or Is he alive? Was he
really found hanging In a deserted
villa In the outskirts of St. Peters
burg? Or was the corpse merely IHs
double'? Or was there ever any
corpse nt nil? And. If the ublquitnun
Onpon Is yet alive, where Is he? He
Is variously described as living In Fin
land and In Flhsbury, as having re
tired to a monastery, and as being
seen trying his luck at 'Monte.' Fur
thermore what Is he? Is he a police
spy or not? Was "Vladimir Day'

body would settle these questions for

AXEODOTE OF SEDDOX.
Here Is an anecdote about the late
Premier .Seddon of New Zealand. He
was very active In sending troops to
the assistance of Oreat Britain In
the South African war; On one occa
sion he was taunted by un opposition
member with, his readiness to sacrl
flco his colony's manhood. "You are
ready enough to send our sons and
borthers to be shot at, but" was the
opening of a taunt by his opponent.
when the premier broke In: "Sir, this
morning I signed a commission for
my own son. He will be shot at, too,
and I have dared him to come hack
without a wound."
I'lZLIVO FACTS FOR TRl'STS.
It Is charged that tho manufactur
ers of agricultural Implements sell
their products to the foreigners at n
lower price than they charge the home
folks. This Irritates the home folks.
Then the agricultural Implement men
are charging that the steel Industries
sell their products to the foreign Im
plement makers at a less cost than to
the home Implement makers. This Ir
ritates the home Implement makers.
Thus do we see that the prospect for
a general reform In tho tariff is not
