M c. 3 The Democratic papers seem ftba still in doubt as to who should be the candidate of the party for president. - Why don't they read the Examiner, the Journal and the American, and find out? William Randolph . Hearst is the only logical candi date Wc speik authoritatively n this subject. He admits it limself. ft ft - Shirley Buck and H. L Mc Gann have purchased the Ore- goa City Courier, and will run it as a Democratic paper. They must be yn n it the business as they spesV . the Democratic party as ha i. 'principle." No, Shirley, t ire behind the times; Ic old days when you were quite voting such- a thing might have been said with propriety. Come down to "Bin ton county and find out what De mocracy ieally stands for. Ask Mac. The star-eyed goddess of re form" is still the patron saint of Democracy. The purification of politics is to be no longer an irri descent dream, but a stern reality. All good reformers should flock to the grand old, pure old, C old Democratic party, the party f purity and high principle. Wil He Hearst estimates that the hun dred delegates he has secured for fche National Convention will Have cost him twentv-thousand dollars apiece. To the pure all tilings are pure. After ten days ot apparent in activity, in the early hours of Wednesday the 14th, a small Ja panese sq iadron ventured on an ather attack upon Port Arthur, Admiral Makaroff, on board the . lavily-arinored, 14,000 ton Pet ropavlovsk, started out to repel the attack. The appearance of the main body of the Japanese Seet caused her to retreat. In so doing she struck a submerged mine which blew a hole in her hull, when she turned turtle and sank in two-and-a-half miautes. Brave Admiral Makaroff and over 1 seven hundred men went down with the vessel. Another vessel, the torpedoboat destroyer Bes irashni, was cut out from the fleet ly the JaDanese, and sunk. The Pobieda : ter Russian battle hip, xves i injured by a hid i ;n mice, r t 1 returning to the harbor, t; i f was able to make ir anchorage without assistance. . " he Japanese fleet which imme diately commenced- bombarding the fort, consisted ot forty vessels. This, the most disastrous accident, is the third battleship which Rus sia has lost by her own sunken mines. Truly terror reigns in loxt Arthur. ct jt jt Republican France has deter mined that the reactionary, mon archical, aristocratic religious or ders shall no longer wacp the minds of the youth of the laud. The whole structure of religious schools has been swept away, and in its place are secular schools, supported and coatrolled by the state.. This is the culmination of a long and bitterly fought crusade iu the same general direct ion, and looking to the same results. This work of the min istry has the approval of the peo ple, and must be manifest from the result of the last election. $Due clause of the law now in force provides for the removal of all religious emblems from the - courts of France, and it is note worthy that this act was carried on" during the week preceding Est.

WHITE H STONE, . ' Corvallis, Oregon. NEW PIANOS !! ' : $50.00 .TO $75.00 cheaper than you can buy them in Portland or of Portland agents. We cUim to sell in struments of the same quality 50 to S75 cheaper than any other rgents within 500 miles. This may seem like a bola statement, but we are prepared to back it up with incontrovertible" evidence, if given a chance. ARGUMENT. All large dealers, like the Portland firms, have enormous expenses that we do not have in the way of immense rent, electric light, clerk hire, freight, dmyage and numerous other bills. Especially is this true of their agents who cart their pianos around from town to town, creating bills which you have to share if you buy of them. Large firms save about ilO on a,piauo bv buying in large carload lots Do you think that makes up for the above expenses? We are in a position to sell cheaper than any large firms and the way our customers are increasing gives evidence that people are finding it out. Beware of spec ial sales, piano clubs and the like. ISO fat hi can sell goods at wholesale prices to the retail trade and no firm does. We always make a profit on our pianos and never give anyone a special price, or sell to you for less than your neighbor, as we have but one price the year around. There is not another dealer iu the Pacific Northwest, to our knowl edge, which has strictly, one price on each piauo from which they ever never deviate. At least have a talk with . M. A. GOODNOUGH before purchasing and see what he has to ofier. Our 8250 pian.j is a thoroughly good instru ment, of beautiful tone, action, finish, and workmanship and one which would cost else where $300 so $325. We have several new styles coming.
