The Oregon Sunday Journal de clares that H. M. Cake has forsaken the statement Xo. 1 principle which he advocated before the primaries. It says that he has kicked the statement Xo. 1 people out of doors. Here Is what Is the matter with the Journal: The republicans observed the primary" law, nominated candi dates In the primaries and came out fearlessly and emphatically for the ob servance of that law and made their contest under it. The democrats did not do this. In almost every county In the state they evaded the primary law, refusing to put out candidates before the pri maries and declining to recognize the law. Xow after the republicans have nominated their candidates in the prl marles and settled their contests at that time, the democrats want the republicans to forsake their own can dldates and accept democrats placed In nomination on petition after the primaries. Why did not the democrats get out candidates and observe the primary law? Why did they not make an ef fort to get out good men before the ; primaries and not wait to try to dis rupt the republicans after the pri maries? The Journal is now "sore" because Mr. Cake and his followers will not forsake their party nominees and fol low these clandestine nominations made after the primaries. Mr. Cake and his followers made a fair, open, clean fight in the primary election for statement Xo. 1 candidates. In most of the counties these were nominated and are being supported by Mr. Cake as forcibly today as before the pri maries, and the Journal knows It. Mr. Cake has not deserted any prin ciple which he advocated before the primaries. He is for statement Xo. 1, but he will not knife his own party to please the Journal or any other dem ocrat. He will not be dictated to by his opponents. The republicans observed the pri mary law and nominated their candi dates at that time. The democrats should have done the same, If they respect the advance deglslation which has been passed by the republican voters of Oregon. Mr. Cake Is a republican and Is entitled to every repubilean vote. arrangement, understanding or dis cussion of the subject, every member of the convention studiously refrained from the mention of Haywood's name. f During the entire deliberations the name of the federation secretary was not spoken although he Is being folst td upon the country as presidential umber, and was perhaps foremost In the minds of many of the delegates aurtng. the day. There Is no other explanation for the matter, than that by mental con sent, the members of the convention maintained silence. Haywood had brought odium upon the party and I'matillii county socialists did not Join in the loud clamor for his acquittal as did many other localities, and so without prearrangement or agreement, but simply through common mental consent, the would-be martyr was not mentioned In Pendleton's convention of socialists. " " SERMONS IN CARTOONS. The facile pen of the cartoonist Is far more powerful than the preacher or the editor. It carries home a con viction which It Is Impossible for words to Impress. It clinches argu ments more forcibly than any Impas sioned eloquence ever dare to attempt. In the Spokesman-Review of Sun day are two cartoons which are wor thy of special mention since they are original with Morris, the Spokane car toonist. One represents the states of Idaho and Washington as fair young women riding in automobiles. Idaho Is ac companied by two fighting politicians, who In their vicious struggle are neg lecting the automobile of the Gem state and It Is running wildly near the brink of an abyss, while Idaho Is ready to leap out to save her life. Washington Is represented as a fair young woman seated happily In her big machine, running smoothly along a broad, safe highway, labeled "direct primary law." She has no fighting politicians to contend with. She Is not threatened with disaster by being thrown over the brink of political corruption. She la running along safely and contentedly on a broad highway of popular legislation. The lessen Is significant. Xo amount cf sermonizing could carry the weight of this cartoon. The other cartoon is that of an old farmer, representing Joe Cannon, speaker of the house, with his wagon standing squarely across the railroad track, his horse unhitched and eating out of the rear of the wagon, the driver snoozing contentedly on the seat, with a long cigar In his mouth ard half asleep. A train loaded with frantic people, labeled "the public," has come to a halt where the wagon is standing on the track, but all the shouting and noise of the public falls to awaken the snoozing old farmer, Joe Cannon, and the progiess of the train is im peded while his old horse, "congress." has his nose in the hay. MENTAL SUGGESTION, OR WHAT? An Incident of mental suggestion, telepahthy or thought force was re-cf-ntly recorded In this city which Is worthy of more than passing notice. Since these forces are coming to be recognized In human affairs no Illus tration is too remote to pass unno ticed. Thirty or 35 members of the social ist party of Umatilla county recently met In county convention In this city and adopted a platform, named coun ty candidates and transacted routine business Incident to a county conven tion. As it was' the .'first meeting of the aoclaltsts after the acquittal of Hay wood at Boise, it would naturally be supposed that Haywood would have fown mentioned many time during ihe convention. But without any pre,. THE BOOSTER MOVEMENT. Pendleton has received much favor able advertising from the meeting and organization of her real estate men All of the northwest papers have taken up the subject as a theme for compll mentary editorials and whatever un favorable mention may have been made of Tom Richardson's failure to enthuse the property owners a week before, has been drowned In the praises for the real estate men's boos ter meeting. The seed that was scattered in the Tom Richardson meeting, failure though It was, will grew and ripen Into a publicity movement for Uma tilla county which will surpass any thing of the kind In Oregon. There Is more to offer In the way of land, water, climate, transportation facilities, Investment opportunity, home making opportunity In Umatilla county than in any other eastern Ore gon county. The area of vacant land which Is ready for settlement, Is greater here than In any other county. And the spirit of the country, the live, vigorous class of citizens all com bine to make the booster movement a success here. Something has been slarted which no opposition can ever stop. Come and be a "Jlner." big thief, even where the law lays Its hands upon him, gets off; your little thief -is likely to go to Jail. But even the little offenders chances are good better than two to one. For of 11,037 cases of grand Mrccny re ported by the chief clerk of the dis trict attorney of Xew York for the seven years ended December 31, 1908, there were 6637 cases' acquitted, dis charged or dismissed, and there were only 4400 convictions. The fact that there have been a few more convictions for embezzlement In 1007 than In the previous year In nearly all the large cities Is merely the result of there having been a much greater number of embezzlements, and does not mark a growing tenden cy to prosecute, as some misinformed vriters seem to think. AT DAYBREAK. As the faint dawn crept upward, gray and dim, He saw her move across the path to him Her eyes as they had looked in long gone years, Tender with love, and soft with thoughts of tears. Her hands outstretched as if In won derment, Nestled In his, and rested there, con tent. "Sweetheart," he whispered, "what glad dream Is this? I feel your clasp your long-remembered kiss ' Touches my Hps; I hold your tender form Close In my arms again yea, close and warm. "As In the days when first you used to creep Into my heart; and yet, this Is not sleep "Is It some vision, that with night will fly?" "Xay, dear," she answered, "It is really I." "Yea, little sweetheart, it is you, I know! But It Is strange the dead can meet us so. "Bodied as we are; see, how like we stand!" "Yea," she replied, " "in form , and face, and hand." Silent awhile he held her to his breast, As If afraid to try the further test Then, speaking quickly: "Must you go away?" "Xay, dear," she murmured: "neither night nor day!" C'iose on her bosom then she drew his head. Trembling: "I do not understand!" he said. "I thought the spirit world was far apart." "Xay," she replied, "It Is not, now, dear heart! "Quick! let me close your eyes with kisses. . . so. , . . Cling to me. dear! 'tis but a step-ti go!" The white-faxed watchers rose beside his bed; Shut out the day," they sighed; "our friend is dead!" Charles B. Going. BIG THIEVES ESCAPE. Writing In the Saturday Evening Post, Bailey Millard tells how the big thief escapes. He says: In Xew York, aa Is shown by the records of District Attorney Jerome's office, the big thief nearly always goes free. Of 3274 cases of grand larceny under which head comes embezzlements In the years 1905 and 1906 there were only three cases of conviction In which the sum named In the records was $50, 000 or over. The great mass of the other convic tions was for the stealing of sums ranging from $100 to 11000. Your ASPIRATION. Something I may not win attracts i me ever Something elusive, yet supremely fair. Thrills me with gladness, but contents me never, Fills me with sadness, yet forbids despair. It blossoms Just beyond the paths follow, It shines beyond the farthest stars I see, it ecnoes ramt rrom ocean caverns hollow, And from the land of dreams It beckons me. It calls, and all my best, with Joyful feeling, . Essays to reach It as I make reply; I reel its sweetness o'er my spirit stealing, Yet I know ere I attain It, I must die!" Florence Earle Coates. THERE, LITTLE GIRL, DON'T CRY! There! little girl, don't cry! They have broken your doll, I know; And your tea-set blue, And your play-house, too, Are things of that long ago; But childish tapubles will soon pass by There! little girl, don't cry! There! little girl, don't cry! They have broken your slate, I know; And the glad, wide-ways Of your school-girl days Are the things of the long ago; But the life and love will soon come by There! little girl, don't cry! There! little girl, don't cry! They have broken your heart, I know; And the rainbow gleams Of your youthful dreams Are things of the long ago; But Heaven holds all for which you sigh There! little girl, don't cry! James Whltcomb Riley. BLOOD FILLED WITH UlUC ACID Rheumatism comes from an excess of uric acid in the blood. Thi acid circulating through the systein'acts as an irritant to the different muscles, nerves, bones and tissues of the body, and produces the inflammation and swelling of the joints and the sharp, cutting pains characteristic of the dis ease. When the blood is overburdened with uric acid it continually grows weaker and more acrid, and poorer in nourishing qualities. Then Rheuma tism becomes chronic, and not only a painful, but a formidable and danger ous disease. Sometimes the heart is attacked, the general health is affected, and the oils and fluids which lubricate the muscles and joints are destroyed by the acrid matter which the blood is constantly depositing in them ; the muscles shrink and lose their elasticity, the coating of the joints becomes hard and thick, and often the Bufferer is left a hopeless cripple. S. S. S. attacks the disease at its head, goes down into the circulation, and by neutral izing and removing the uric acid from the circulation and building up the thin, acrid blood, cures Rheumatism permanently. S. S. S. changes the sour, acid-burdened blood to a rich, healthy stream which quiets the excited nerves, eases the throbbing, painful muscles and joints, and filters out of the system the irritating matter which is causing the pain and inflammation. Begin the use of S. S. S. now and get the cause out of your blood so that the cold and dampness of Winter will net keep you in constant pain and misery.

Mark Heacock of the Wlnslow brothers jewelry store has been ser iously 111 for several days with In flamatory rheumatism. Is an ordeal which all women approach with indescribable fear, for nothing compares with the pain and horror of child-birth.
