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.

- 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.

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

I am so happy and so glad, -
I do not now feel blue and sad,
- - I laugh and talk and take my ease;
1 come and go just as I please.' -
I tell you what I sold my home
When I listed it with White & Stpne.-
. I Ws feeling Try blue and sad,
yt Mywlfe she made me almost mad; . .. --
V She did not want on the farm to stay,.
She wanted to sell it and more away,
' So I listed! t for more than a year -
And still found myself right here. ..'
The agents took my-place in hand ;
r j They were so sure they could sell the land,
v I sometimes think they did not try v .
For they never brought a man to bny,
They gave me a wink with a knowing smile
' . , And tried to fool me all thejwhile.1
. With that knowing smile and wink
- They conld not fool me,fdon't youl think. "
r J saw they would rot sell my home
So I listed it with White & Stone.
fou bet, I fouud them just and true; '
They will do your work all right for you.
They will always help you if they can.
They deal with you as man with man. v -They'ie
always ready with good advice.
And are not afraid to advertise. " -

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. Second hand pianos- also for sale.
