Richard Realf. Hon, Frank S. Penson, tho present secretary of state of Oregon, will be come governor and will serve until December 31, 1910, the date at which Governor Chamberlain's term would have expired had he remained to the end of his term. In the meantime In November, 1910 another governor will have been elected, the date of the state election having been changed from June to November. On March 4, 1909, shortly after the legislature will have settled the sena torlal election, the term of office of the new senator will begin, Senator Fulton's term expiring at that time. As Governor Chamberlain received a salary of $5000 per year or $20,000 for a four-year term. As senator he will receive a salary of Si 500 per year or $45,000 for a six-year term. WILL THEY COME HACK? HELP THE COMMITTEE. The publicity committee of Pendle ton Commercial association and the Real Estate Men's association is now canvassing the different parts of the county for funds with which to carry on the publicity or advertising cam paign for the entire county. Every section of the county will be visited and the business men will be solicited for funds to help advertise Umatilla county in the east. This fund will be used for tho benefit of the entire county. Each section is equally Interested and the publicity committee is giving Its time, energy, money and labor to this worthy work. The different sections of the county are urged to Join In this work. One town or community cannot carry all the load and do all the worrk. Uma- mua county as a wnoie must join to gether and carry on an Intelligent and we! organized publicity campaign vmcn win uiing me iism miiu ui settlers to the county. We have more inducements to ad vertise today than ever before. In the history of the county. Let us imke the best of the rich opportunity. A number of fanners from Helix, Athena and other sections of Umatilla have moved their families to Walla Walla within the past three or four years for the alleged reason that Walla Walla was a better town mor ally, than Pendleton. While making their Immense for tunes from the abounding opportu nities of Umatilla county, yet they moved out of the county to spend their fortunes and rear their families. vNow, what reason have they for re maining out of Umatilla county or Pendleton? The moral conditions here are what they want; prohibition has been voted; the reform which they wanted has been brought to the coun ty, and what excuse can they now offer for staying away from Pendle ton? The East Oregonian urges them to come back home. In the first place. Walla Walla mor als have never been better than those of Pendleton. Both have been. "wet" towns and Walla Walla has tolerated a worse flass of saloons and more open gambling than Pendleton and yet these farmers have deceived them selves Into believing that Walla Walla was a better town morally, than Pen dleton. Now they are undeceived. Pendle ton will be "dry" after July 1 and Walla Walla will continue to flaunt her dives. If these farmers were hon est in seeking a place where moral conditions were good, in which to rear ar.d educate their children, they can not remain at Walla Walla. Will they now show their apprecia tion of Umatilla county's progress and rtturn to this county where moral conditions are good to make thjclr permanent home? Will they give their home county a square deal? Let us see. They have made fortunes here and now havs what they have sought. Will they return to a county having good mor als? Or will they 'remain In the presence of Walla Walla saloons with their boys and girls? THE LOW GREEN' DOOR. The years roll on, and still we rev'- rent tread, We seek the place where rest the honored dead; Again we strew fresh flowers upon each grave, And place a flag where sleeps a sol dier brave. Step softly by each low green door, It, opens earthward never more. Again we sing the songs they sang of old, And glad recount their deeds of valor bold; While memory brings back through mist of tears, The sights and sounds of those far dis tant years. Step softly by each low green door. It opens earthward never mote. We name the battles o'er they fought so well Antletam. Gettysburg and Slilloh's hell: And as we thus recall the mighty past, Our hearts on fire anew beat loud and fast. Step softly by each low green door, It opens earthward never more. Again we hear the bugle, drum and fife, And live once more the stirring mar tial life; In fancy see the gleam of campflre bright, And well-loved faces In its glowing light. Step softly by each low green door. It opens earthward never more. Gone, gone, all gone, the merry, sad and gay; Their blood was spilled in many a hard-fought fray; The loving myrtle wreaths their low ly beds, , And peace doth brood above their dust-covered heads. Step softly by each low green door, It opens heavenward evermore. Townsend Allen. Are You a Lard Eater? . Half the time when a person feels blue and out of sorts you ma)' take it for granted that he is a victim of the "lard habit." Lard-cooked food and good stomachs are never friends for long. Lard food is not healthful food and no ordinary stomach can thoroughly digest it. Lard comes from the pig-sty; Cottolene from the cotton fields of The Sunny South. Lard is greasy, indigestible, and sometimes absolutely harmful; Cot' tolenc makes food digestible, nu- . tritious, delicious. Cottolene is the perfect shortening and frying me dium. It is pure and healthful. It contains not an ounce of hog-fat. Cottolene is today in use by thousands of housewives who would no more think of going back to lard than they would of reverting to tallow dips for light ing their homes." Cottolene is one of the prod ucts which pure food advocates always endorse. Nature's Gift from the Sunny South Mill MAPS OF THE AIU, CHEROKEE STRIP LAM). -MORE PROGRESS FOR OREGON. The people of Oregon have Just passed three more of what the poli ticians call "freak measures," meas ures giving the people more power in state government, namely, the recall, the proportional representation and statement No. 1 enacted Into law. The recall was passed by a major ity of 1 5.74 S. showing that the peo ple know what they want. The pro portional representation bill was pass ed by a majority of 6508 and state ment No. 1 was enacted into law by the overwhelming majority of 15,551. In addition to these the Huntley bill, or the corrupt practices bill, was also passed by a majority of 1.854. Thus four "freak" measures are added to the already long list in Ore gon and the people are gaining more and more power and authority in state government by these measures. Will the legislature dare to "mon key" with these measures? The peo ple have never been repulsed by the legislature yet. What will be done with these alleged "freak" bills? The people of Oregon are making pro giess. And It Is safe to say that the legislature will keep Its hands off. THE NEXT GOVERNOR. Since Governor George E. Chamber Iain has received the popular vote of Oregon for the United States senate, speculation as to the political changes and history which this election will make in the state are now in order. The constitution of the state pro vides that In case of the death, re moval, resignation or disability of the governor that the duties of that office ahall fall upon the secretary of state. Consequently when Governor Chamberlain resigns ' as governor, which he -will not do, perhaps until after th, legislature ratifies his elec- The equal suffrage amendment has been defeated by a majority of 9S90, several hundred less than the mnjorl ty acrainst It two years ago. This Is some hope, at least. Every vote gained Is a victory and the friends of equal suffrage will never stop until that amendment is placed as a law upon the statute books of Oregon. CPTIVK GETS ALLOTMENT. Herman Lehman, a captive of the Apaches when a lad of 11 years and cruelly treated by them, has at last come Into possession of an Indian al lotment through the efforts of Sena tor Gore, after three unsuccessful at tempts had been made to get posses sion of his property. With this com pleted Lehman has been restored to his tribal rjghts, says a Lawton, Ok lahoma, story. Though a German, he ls(a member of the Comanche tribe of Indians. He Is generally known by the Indians as Chief Quanah's boy, and Is called Montechema by the Indians. His oareer has been a romance of bor der life. When 11 years old he lived with his mother In Texas. A raid of the Apaches under Geronlmo, in which houses were destroyed and pillage tak en and a number of settlers killed, young Lehman and his brother were taken captive. The brother escaped by mere strategy, while Herman was tied to a pony and carried away. With the surrender at Fort Sill of Quanah Parker and his band to Gen eral McKenzle, Lehman was among the number. An investigation follow ed resulting In the return of the cap tive to his mother In Texas. A few years of life away from the Indians, to whom-he had become attached, soon led him to return to southwest Oklahoma. The Comanche Indians In tribal council and the efforts of Chief Qua nah have been directed toward ob taining recognition for him on the tribal rolls by the government, which have always failed until now. At the council he waa made a member of the tribe. Lehman now lives with his wife and ehlMren on a leased piece of land near Indiahoma. Frank Ruch, the keeper of the buf. falo herd in the national forest of Oklahoma, was talking In his office the other day to a St. Louis man. about some poor fodder he had re fused. "Poor stuff It was." said the ex- cowboy. "It must have grown on poor land. The land must have been as poor as poor as " He laughed. "Once." he said, "a Kansas farmer met on the hot, dusty road a home steader pushing on excitedly toward the Cherokee strip. " 'Whar ye bound?" said the farm er. " 'Fer a 160 acres o' free land In the strip." was the reply. And the man vanished In the glitter of dust and sunshine. "Well, a montli or two went by, and on the same dusty roar! the Kansas farmer met the homesteader return- ng. ' 'Hello,' he says, 'what ye done with them 160 acres ?' "The homesteader pointed his whip proudly toward his mule team. "'See' them mules?' sild he. 'Well, traded S'l acres of my claim for em. "'What ye do with the other SO?" " 'Don't give me away,' was the re ply, 'but the feller was a tenderfoot, an' I run In the other Si acres on him without his knowln' It.' " The new geographies will have maps of the air, says the Chicago Tri bune. The Aero club of France Is about to draft a series of aerial at lasses. The president of the club will superintend the work and hns already collected a vast number of documents ready to begin. The first few maps are to show the position of telegraph wires, overhead cables and nil danger ous obstacles which might be struck by a balloon's guide at night. Over head cables have been found convey ing hlirh potential currents of 20.000 volts or more, and these easily might cause disaster to a balloon whose oc cupants are not aware of Its position. It Is to help aeronauts to avoid such obstacles ns these that the maps are being prepared. AX ESTIMATE OF FRED DUBOIS. The political obituary of Fred T. Dubois is already In type In several of the democratic newspaper shops In IdaMo. The fearless leader that they hailed with delight when, as an apos tate, he left the republican party In IS 96. they now refuse to honor. But the man who walked out of the re publican pary carrying at least half of Its force with him, when kicked out of the democratic party, carry enough from Its strength to make democratic victory In Idaho too re moe for speculation.

S). roots and herbs A SAFE AIID RELIABLE BLOOD PURIFIER In the time of our forefathers the forests and fields were the only labor atories from which they could procure their medicines. They searched out and compounded thedifferent roots, herbs and barks into remedies, many of which have been handed down to succeeding generations, and continuously used with satisfactory results. Among the very best of these old time prep arations is S. S. S.. a medicine made entirely from roots, herbs and barks, in such co.-.i'.iiiation as to make it the greatest of all blood purifiers. This absolute vegetable purity of S. S. S. makes it the one medicine that may be used without fear of harmful results in any way. Most blood medicines on the market contain mercury, potash, or some other strong mineral. These act with bad efTect on the system, upsetting the stomach, interfering with the digestion, affecting the bowels, and when used for a prolonged period of time often cause salivation. No such effects ever result from the use of S. S. S , and it may be taken by children as safely as by older people. For Rheumatism, Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, Malaria, Sctnfula, Skin Diseases, and all other troubles caused by impure or poisoned blood, S. S. S. is a per fect remedy. It goes down into the circulation and removes all poisons, impurities, humors or unhealthy matter, and makes the blood pure and rich. It eliminates every particle of the taint of inherited blood trouble, purifies and strengthens the weak, deteriorated blood, and establishes the foundation for good health. S. S. S. is Nature's Blood Purifier, and its many years of successful service, with a steadily increasing demand for it, is the best evi dence of its value in all blood troubles.
