SENATORIAL PLOTTING. The Baker City Herald strikes a keynote when it says that the effort of the machine politicians of Oregon Is to defeat the popular election of senators and throw the senatorial election into the hands of the legis lature as of old. The only possible way by which this old fight In the legislature is to be eliminated is for the people to enact statement No. 1 Into law at tho coming June election and place the senatorial election absolutely beyond the reach of the politicians. This election belongs in the hands of th.? people and the people should forever wipe the senatorial deadlock off the records of Oregon by taking to them selves the power of selecting their senators. The Herald says of the matter: It is no surprise that T. B. Wilcox should indorse Fulton's campaign In a strong letter. Wilcox would like til be senator himself, according to In side information, and if Fulton should win in the primaries It Is thought Wilcox has a notion Chamberlain would beat Fulton at the polls. Should this be true and a repub lican legislature be elected, it Is like ly that Mr. Wilcox and his friends would try to throw the election of United States senator back to the leg islature, thus giving a chance for dark horses and old methods. CITY BONDS AS BAROMETERS. .Speaking of city bonds as barom eters of business conditions and fi nancial health, the Spokane Chroni cle pays a glowing tribute to the ex cellent condition of the inland em pire. Foremost in the cities of the inland empire is Pendleton, the coun ty seat of Umatilla county und finan cial center for half a dozen eastern Oregon counties. The sale of Pendleton bonds at good figures in Boston this week places this city among the gilt-edged offer ings on the money market of the east. The Investigation of financial and commercial conditions here made by Rollins & Sons before purchasing Pendleton city bonds has been the best advertisement ever sent out for the city. That advertisement has placed Pendleton prominently before the world as a solid, substantial, growing city of a rich section. The addition of 10 blocks of new paving to her already targe paved district will further enhance the value bf Pendleton city bonds and will give the city still more advertising, which It Justly deserves. The Spokane Chronicle says of the subject: About the first sign of the panic that paralyzed the country last fall v.'as a lack of markets for bonds, showing that there was such a bor rowing demand for money that it was more profitable to loan cash than to put it Into gilt-edge securities. The bond market Is still quiet, but 1: Is greatly Improved, which is taken by financiers as an Indication of im- saaBC r ' proving conditions the country over. The fact that an iaaue of $3,000, 000 worth of bonds by a local com pany was sold In the Inland empire recently is a good Indication of the soundness of conditions In the north west. The necessity of a good market for bonds, and the prosperity resultant upon a good market for them, la the fact that most railroads and large corporations obtain money for their purchases by the sale of bonds, and tho money they use helps to koop mills and factories busy, carrying large payrolls and an immense con sumption of raw materials. Railroads can not build extensions or increase equipment unless they can soil bonds, and If extensions are aban doned thousands of men are made Idle. The whole business life of the country is Interdependent. EASTERN OBJDGOITS INTEREST. The experience which Congressman W. R. Ellis has gained In his service in congress Is worth dollars and cents to the people of this district. He Is in position to secure needed legisla tion and to further the vital Interests of this section of the state. A new man would have to gain that experience, build up acquaintance, form congressional friendships, "learn the' ropes" and consume the people's time, for a large part of the term In becoming familiar with the routine. All of these things are assets of the- people in the work of a congress man and it Is to the people's Interests to use the experience gained by their public officials rather than give office to some new and untried man, simply because he wants It. The salary of a congressman is now $7500 per year and the people oannot afford to "break In" a new im:n every session for this sum. It rs too costly and too serious a matter to be bandied about by office-Itching politicians. The people want results and get the best results through ex perienced men Place the matter on the plane of dollars and cents, from a taxpayer'" standpoint, and why should yu give $7500 per year to an inexperienced man who could not get results until you had given him a course of train ing at public expense, when you could keep an experienced man in the el flee? I. A FOLLETTE BEATS MACHINE. Senator La Follette's forces, the common people of the state of Wis consin, won a signal victory over the Spooner machine in that state this week and the Wisconsin delegation to the republican national conven tion will vote for La Follette for pres ident. La Follette's strength Utt with the people and he has never deceived them. From the time he was a struggling young school teacher until the day he walked triumphantly Into the United States senate, he had been a friend Of the people and had won his victories through their faith and confidence in him. The progress yet to be made by the Wisconsin senator will come through the people. He will be called to the presldene. perhaps not this year, hut ir time, and he will be found on the side of right and honor and national Integrity in that position -as in every other. The evils of the cheap rates to the Pacific coast were never more em phatically Illustrated than in the coming of such old mossback -word mongers as The Dalles Optimist man to Oregon on a colonist ticket. Any thing can ride on the cheap ticket, to the misfortune of the west. The East Oregonlan Is against cheap rates unless the railroads guarantee the character and capacity of the "colo nists." It Is a shame to bunco a date, hv rlnmnlne anything In the shape of a man upon its soil, regard less of the common decelcles. The Pendleton Tribune says thit the editor of the East Oregonlan If not fit for editorial work for 30 lays aftrr writing a poem, ana uwi m writes a poem every 30 days. The ed itor of the East Oregonlan writes a poem almost as often as T. T. Gee: would take a bribe, if he had a chance. What a man follows Is Just a matter of taHte, you know. LARGEST BELT IN THE WORM). Washington state boats the largest leather belt ever made in the world. The hides of a herd of 225 steers were required to furnish the material from which the big endless belt was u..Mt l-Vr,!., the nenter in of the hides were used and each of these waVAJ stretched for weeks to insure perfectly even strength in all parts of the pro posed belt. The belt is 111 feet long, eight fleet wide, and three ply thick. The weight of the belt Is something over 2600 pounds. Not a peg, rivet or fastening of any kind was used to weld the pieces of hide together.

Cooper's theory concerning the human stomach, which be claims to prove with hit new medicine, is being given more respect and comment every day. Cooper claims that 90 per cent, of all ill health Is due to stomach trouble. When Interviewed about his theory re cently, he said: "Stomach trouble is the great curse of the 20th century so far as the civilised races are con cerned. Practically all of the chronic ill health of this generation Is caused by abnormal stomachic conditions. In earlier days, when the human race wus closer to nature, and men and women worked all day out of doors, digging their frugal existence from the soil, the tired, droopy, half-sick people that are now so common, did not exist. "To be sure, there was sickness in those days, but It was of a virulent character, and only temporary. There was none of this half-sick condition 11 the time with which so many are afflicted nowadays. "I know positively that every bit of this chronic ill health is caused by stomach trouble. The human stomach In civilized people today Is degenerate. It lacks tone and strength. This weak ness has gradually come through a sedentary existence. I furtner know that few people can be sick with the digestive apparatus in perfect Bhape. The sole reason for my. success is be IOWA WAMEN SCORE.

That is why I have had more people come and thank me wherever I have gone to Introduce my medicine, than I have had time to talk with." Among the immense numbers of peo ple who are now strong believers in Cooper's theory and medicine is Mrs. M. K. Dalano, a prominent resident of the suburb of Brookllne, Boston, Mass. She says: "For several years I was broken In health, caused primarily by stomach and nerve troubles. I gradu ally became worse, until recently I was compelled to go without solid food for days at a time. I had sour stomach, palpitation of the nerves of stomach and heart, dyspepsia, and extreme ner vousness, I suffered terribly with in somnia, and my liver, bowels and whole system gradually became de ranged. I felt instant relief the first day I began this Cooper medicine. I now feel like a new being. Today I walked all over town, shopping something I have not done for years. "I make this statement wholly from a sense of duty. I feel I owe it to anyone who might find relief and renewed happiness as I have done." The record made by the Cooper med icines Is astonishing.
