Thi.t the next legislature may adopt ' the voting midline In Oregon elec tloiiH seems now unite prolmble. Con siderable agitation fof the voting ma chine ha wen carried on In Portland 1 nlst season and It Ik probable that a bill authorizing the machines will be Introduced at the coming (tension. The Oregonlan In .discussing the feas U illt;' of the voting machine says: Thnt Multnomah county can save $0000 eh'Ctlon expenses every year by uoe of voting machines more than enough in thiee yearn to pay the cost i'f the machines Is the assertion of State Senator S. C. Keach, who avers that the new voting method would nave time In roiiiitlng ballon returns being kno.vn at once after closing of the polls do awaV with' defective hal lo's and obviate election contests such as that between Stevens and Word for the office of sheriff after the last election. The new voting method will be championed In the legislature thin winter by Senator Heach and also S-nutor Big Skhel, who will both work for passage of a low, authorizing the use of machines. Senator Beach has already drafted a bill giving coun ty courts the optional power of estab lishing machines In their respective counties, either for county as a whole or for special precincts. A machine will enable 1000 electors to vote quicker than 300 now take for that duty, and will therefore make possible a lessening In the number ot precincts, which, according to the present law, are formed by the coun ty court to contain as nearly as pos sible 200 electors each. Machines cost all the way from 1265 lo 1600 each. Electors have dummy machines on which to practice before elections, thus acquainting them selves with the method of voting. He fore the earthquake In California, San Francisco had 198 machine In use. In New York 76 cities have used ma chines, for between two and 10 years. Sacramento uies 21 machines. Senatcrs Btach and Slchel say that as a business proposition, the proposal fur machines, If carried out. will save the county many thousands of dollars and that as an election slmpllfler. the machine should be adopted ,lf for no other reason. Here art some examples of actual resul'.s: These cases cited are not theoretical. Seventy-six cities In New York have used the mnchlnes for from two to 10 ears. Buffalo, N. Y., used 112 machines, displacing 205 voting places and saves $14,000 per year thereby, or $!'8.000 In seven years. Rochester, same state, uses "5 ma chines in that many precincts, under the old system, saving $fi000 per year, or $72,000 In the eight years It has in-ed the machines; Milwaukee, Wis., ii-es 112 machines and saves $snoo per year.

Walla Walla County Platform Dei. mauds Direct Primary. It was practically a clean sweep for Senator 'Ankeny In the county con vention Saturday, says the Walla Walla Statesman. The only break In the ranks was on Otto Rupp for prosecuting attorney. The factions united without trading on James Havlland for sheriff. The other candidates went through on the slate. The platform Is as follows: We, the republican party of Walla Walla, In convention assembled, here by affirm our allegiance to the prin ciples of the national republican pa:--ty as enumerated by the last national republican platform. Resolved, that we endorse the ad ministration of our national, state and county officials and we pledge our candidates, ot be nominated by this convention, to-a careful, painstaking and economical administration of the several county offices. Resolved, that we heartily commend the administration of our friend and neighbor, Senator Levi Ankeny, and pledge him our loyal support In all his efforts to secure appropriations and legislation beneficial to our state. We heartily endorse an honest, ef fective direct primary law and we In struct our representatives In the state legislature to vote and use all honor able means to secure the passage of such a law.

Gasoline Steamboat 36 Feet Long, With Carr'lng Caiclty of 10 ' Tons Will Dare tlie Rapids Harrt man Engineers Engaged fai Most Difficult and Perilous Work Can yon Almost Impa suable for 20 Miles. One of the most difficult and dan gerous tasks now being performed in the entire northwest, Is the survey of the canyon of Snake river for the Harriman line projected from Hunt ington to Lewlston. For 20 miles the canyon Is almost Impassable to any kind of boat, owing to the rapids and huge boulders In the stream. The walls tower to a height of 200 feet at places and are perpendicular, without a margin be tween the water and the wall of rock. For the past six months a party of engineers has been slowly advancing toward this rocky canyon from both directions, up and down stream, and a gasoline boat hns at last been se cured which It Is thoughfwill safely navigate the dangerous canyon. The Iiewlstnn Tribune says of the boat, which Is now being tried on Snake river near that place: The camps of the Oregon Short I.lno engineers, engaged ,ln making the survey for the Huntington-Lewls- ton line, will, when engaged on the lower section of the work in the Snak river ennyon, do suppneu wun pro- vislons through ne operation of a Kiisollne steamboat that will ply be- tween Lewlston and the enmps. The boat reached Riparla n few river ennyon, be supplied with pro days oko, but has been dnlnycd in ! reaching here on account of the tem porary suspension of the Menmboat service. The craft, however, has been placed In the water at Riparla and Wlven a most successful test by Cap tain Halph Itauithmnn, Captain Works, who Is at Rlpnrla, has also been enjnyliiK pleasure trips In the craft. Hoth he and Captain BaiiRh- niau are anxious to make the run here with the boat and It Is probable Chief Engineer Stradley of the Short I,lne. will grant the authority as It Is known he Is very desirous to have the hunt here at as early a date as possible. to place her In service. Captain Baughman ntatcu yesterday that the boat is a most substantial one and showed ability to stem the cur rent of the Snake river at the rate of six miles an hour. He expressed the view that she could conveniently make the run from Riparla to Iewls ton In a day. The boat Is 36 feet long and has a carrying capacity of 10 tons. The en glneg are of 12-horse power. When the boat reached Riparla she was In spected there by Chief Engineer Stradley. The boat Is of a type en tirely new to northwest waters nnd was secured In the east by tho Short Line on account of success met by craft of that pattern In running shal low yet strong streams In South Amer ica. It Is learned that In making the permanent survey In the canyon ahovo the mouth of the Salmon river,' Engineer Stradley plans to use large scows. It Is further learned that all the work of the location survey is to lio rushed. A Ijcsson In Health.

OPERATIONS AVOIDED Two Grateful Letters from Women Who Avoided Serious Operations. from Like Conditions When a physician tells a woman, suf fering from female trouble, that an operation is necessary it, of course, frightens her. The very thought of the operating table and the knife strikes terror to her heart. As one woman expressed it, when told by her physician that she must undergo an operation, she felt that her death knell had sounded. Our hospitals are full of women who are there for just such operations! It is quite true that these troubles may reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but such cases are much rarer than is generally supposed, because a great many women have been cured by Lydia E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound after the doctors had said an operation must be per formed. In fact, up to the point where the knife must be used to secure instant relief, this medicine is certain to help. The strongest and most grateful statements possible to make come from women who, by taking Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound, have escaped serious operations. Margrite Ryan, Treasurer of St. Andrew's Society, Indianapolis, Ind writes of her cure as follows: Dear Mrs. Pinlthnm : " I cannot Hud words to express my thanks for the good Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did me. The doctor stiid I could not get well unless I had nn operation for the trouble from which I suffered. I knew I could not atand the strain of an operation and made up my mind I would be nn invalid for life. Hearing how Lydia E. Pinkham's Ask Mrs. Pinkham's Advlce-A Woman Best Understands a Woman's Ills. Next Monday will see another largij Increase as the students come In from Malhent. Harney, Crant and other counties of eastern Oregon. Several of last year's students are already enrolled, and a large number of last year's class will be here soon. There was one call this week for a man stenographer. Mr. Sturm hopes to secure the position. Miss Faye Carney Is now bookkeep er for the Graham Furniture compa ny. The college exhibit is being placed In the booth reserved for It by the fair association in the Bowman build ing, and one of the teachers will be In attendance every evening. The faculty has been Increased this year by another teacher In the short ham' department, and Mr. Churchill will devote a portion of her time to public otenographlc work. . The college rooms have been re painted and new fixtures added In preparation for the year's work. Vis itors speak very highly of cur rooms and equipment. An old man named vtllklow, an em ploje of the Island Ranch, Harney county, was kicked In the groin by mule and died two days later. Many Women Suffering Will Be Interested. Vegetable Compound had saved other women from serious operations I decided to try it, and in less than four months I was entirely cured; and words fail to express my thank fulness." Miss Margret Merkley, of 275 3d Street, Milwaukee, Wis., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham: "Loss of strength, extreme nervousness, severe shooting pains through the pelvio organs, cramps, bearing-down pains, and an Irritable disposition compelled me to seek medical advice. The doctor, after making an examination, said that I bad a serious female troubleand ulceration, and advised an the bad symptoms disappeared, and I am one. more strong, vigorous and well: and I can not express my thanks for what it has don. forme." Serious feminine troubles are steadi ly on the increase among women and before submitting to an operation every woman should try Lydia E. Pink'hnm's Vegetable Compound, and write Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. for advice. For thirty years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been curing the worst forms of female complaints, all functional troubles, inflammation, ulceration, falling and displacement, weakness, irregularities, indigestion and nervous prostration. Any woman who could read tho many grateful letters on file in Mrs. Pinkham's office would bo convinced of the efticiency ol her advice and Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, 'Iff?
