Pendleton's Leading Clothiers OREGON NTE8S ARE CDMPUHD The Walla Walla nulletln publish the following compllmi-ntory and sen slble editorial on the eectlon of United States nenator In Oregon at the recent Mate election. The Btate of Oregon has again come to the front an one of the great stuteg of the I'nlon by elaborating and dem onxtrating the greatest principle of our republican form of government that the people rule. I)lrect primary laws for the election of candidate! for I'nlted States sena tors, as well as other officials, have been enacted In many states, but none embody a st.itement No 1, that the candidate receiving the majority of votes cast at the primary shall, re gardless of party, be elected. The nomination of candidates for I'nlted States senator by the people has been a great step In the reform movement. Why the election of sen ators by the people should be termed visionary Is beyond us. The fact that In n republican state like Oregon a democratic senator should receive a majority of the votes cast Is no slur on the people, but a compliment to their Intelligence. Hy voting for Chamberlain, they evinced a desire for his election and they should have him. While we strongly believe In the tenets of the republican party and while we prefer the election of a republican wherever possible, we realize that the. election of Chamberlain was not a blow at re publicanism, In that the rest of the republican ticket was elected, but It evidenced the fact that the people of Oregon want Chamberlain to repre sent them in the United States senate, and the Oregon legislature Is In duty bound to send him there. It sounds Inconsistent that republicans should elect a democrat to office, but If the majority of the people choose a man to represent them, the highest princi ple of our electoral form of govern ment by and for the people, the ap parent Inconsistency should therefore vanish. The American people are becoming better acquainted as to thp'r rights and privileges and the power of the ballot. Py being able to vote directly for a United States senator they feel that they will bo truly represented In the United States senate. They feel that the man they want Is the best man for them, and party lines often become eliminated when they are seeking the best man. Judge Cake Is an able, conservative man, but he Is not as well known to the people at large as Chamberlain, who by his two terms as governor has become well acquainted with the pe- pie of the state. The factional fight between Cake and Fulton, the bitter arraignment of Fulton by Heney embittered both sides, and the discon tented flocked to the banner of Cham berlain. The Oregnnlan's peculiar attitude in the senatorial fight also lost many votes for Cake. When the Oregonlan cannot dictate policies and practices l:i Oregon she sits on the fence and sulks. She Is recognized as the mouthpiece of the republican party In the state, or has been, previous to this election, and when she sulked many of her readers and she has a large following also sulked. Thep are a few of the reasons why the republicans of Oregon voted for Chamberlain. The chief reason, how ever, was that they wanted' him. They believed that he would truly repre sfnt them In the United States senate. The people are entitled to their choice and should ever be. We are a re public. , OKF.OON APPLKS VALUABLE. Sell for Tlitrty (Vnts Aplocc In New York. "Oregon apples will In time be as famous as California oranges." "The commercial value of good ap ples Is greater than that of oranges and Oregon should profit thereby." That Is the summary of W. H. Sel- leck's opinion, and he says there are many In New York who agree with him.. Mr. Sclleck Is connected with the Securities corporation of 4 Wall street, and travels most of his time between New York and London and London and Paris. He goes on to say mat he himself when In New York buys them every day at the fruit stands and pays 15 to ;n cents apiece for them, and does not consider It money 111 spent. Cer tain kinds of apples are sold there under the general name of Oregon apples, and this is advertisement enough. They are Spltzberg, New town rippins and the Hannna apple. The lianana apple, which has never been grown elsewhere, Mr. Selleck pays 30 cents for at the fruit stand Mr. Selleck Is eager that the com mercial bodies here take up the mat ter of systematically advertising Ore gon apples so as to give them the prestige that the Qallfonrla orange enjoys, and he says It will be an easy matter and a remunerative one, for the commercial value of the apple Is greater than that of the orange. No Wond.r He FUd. A tall, solemn looking young man entered the restaurant with a mild, apologetic air and seated himself at a vucaut table near the middle of the room. It was evident that be dreaded to Intrude. He wanted to get as far away from other people as possible. He even blushed pulnfully when be gave his order, and the most casual observer could have told that be was bashful. Just as bis dinner was brought to him a buxom looking wo man with seven small children entered the place. The head waiter swept the field wltb bis eye, pounced down upon the table where the young man bad sought solitude, motioned to the moth er, who clucked to the chickens, and a moment later they were all around that one table. Tbut young man's face was a serial story. Other people entered the restaurant, glunced at the group, smiled signifi cantly and seated themselves. "He doesa't look It, does be?" quel led a pleasant faced old lady In an audible whisper. "She looks at least ten years older than be," murmured a girl at the next table. He flew to the hatrack, tossed a half crown to the waiter and tried to go through the door without opening it London Telegraph. A Wanted Opporunity. "Ole Dill" Foote and "Ole Bill" Eng lish were political traveling compan ions, and many stories were told of tbelr Joint journeying. The two hardy Democratic campaign ers were doing southern California one election time and got Into the country at the back door of Los Angeles. One night they reached a farmhouse where they bad expected to find lodgings. The farmer bad nothing but two arm chairs. Foote and English pleaded for beds cots, trundle bods, anything that looked like a bed. Nothing doing. The campaigners, like Napoleon or Grant or like Washington at Valley Forge, slept. In their chairs. When the first advance agents of dawn scudded out of the west the poli ticians laboriously got out of their chairs and went out for fresh air. They met the old farmer milking the cow wltb the crumpled born. "Do you know, gentlemen." he said blandly and without contrition, "yoa could have had a bed, after all? I was expecting two Democratic orators here last night ana saved the beds for them, , but somehow or other tbey never show ed up, dang 'em."-San Francisco Call.

M RBQTMEIR Is an ordeal which all women approach with indescribable fear, for nothing compare with the pain and horror of child-birth. The thought of the suffering and danger in store for her, robs the expectant mother of all pleasant anticipations of the coming event, and casts over her a shadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off. Thousands of women have found that the use of Mother's Friend during pregnancy robs confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother and child. This scientific liniment is a god-send to all women at the time of their most critical trial. Not only does Mother's Friend carry women safely through the perils of child-birth, but its use gently prepares the system for the coming event, prevents "morning sickness, and other dis comfort of this period.
