HART, of Folk. j TAS. A. FEE, of Cmatilla. GRANT DIMMICK, of Clackama. A. C. HOUGH, of Josephine. Editorial Comment. In cne sense of the word there -;x?e no political issues this year. Tfae stupid result of the effort of Jaodge Parker to give national significance to the Democratic platform by surreptitiously issu ing a bogus and misleading tele .ram to the St. Louis conven tion, has sent what might have Ijeen a promising boom, into per ooianent retirement. The gold Standard has been settled, it is sto longer an issue. . Yet no one IiaG come forward with anything better. The Democrats are i Ty ing to leave off favoring free sil - ver and att -.eking the supreme court. Theoretically they want ! fZLie tanrr revisea; pracucauy iney -are satisfied with things as they ;are They can hardly ask us to 3ive up building the Panama -canal or to repeal the measure 'that gave Cuba reciprocal trade relations with ue, or to go back to an antiquated and ineffective Ttaiilitarv svsfem and a navv of -wooden tubs, or to stop try ing to give the country an hon est and progressive adminis tration. What then are the Issues for the campaign of 1904? There are none. The policy of file government is fixed and ex- - iaSone. What then is the presi iential election of 1904 to be -about? Itisto.be about Theo dore Roosevelt and nothing else. 'The voting population has but one question to answer this year, atod that question is, Do you want Theodore Roosevelt as president for four years more? 2Jo matter who the Democratic candidate may be or what he stiay talk about, this one ques imon states the issue. The re-tssilt-as the recent election in this &icl indicates will be "a prairie Jire for Roosevelt." The New Switch-board. ' " The "Independent Telephone Company will be ready for busi ness in a few days. Three ot the arural lines are already connected, .Philomath, Mountain View and ' V t T 1 II I .. 'Monroe, wnue me otuers wan uc ou in a few days. The operator's cswitch-board, the finest on the "Pacific coast, arrived last week i.md is now in place. It looks very much like a val nable piece of furniture, richly be ,:tudded with , copper and: ivory :il xtures and miniature lights of pure pearl. There are five different divis .tons used in systematizing the -public service; four colors, green, -white, blue and black, with one geueral division for county ser vice. These little pearl lights guide the operators in their work .-changing color with each succes sive call. Waile the phones are being used, the lights continue to -shine only ceasing to do so when the receiver is put on the hook. "There are now 42 telephones up on the rural lines and all farmers are.requesced to avail themselves of the opportunity, and attach themselves at once. When once the phone is used, its numerous advantages will be apparent. There are 175 city instruments -ordered with manv more to follow. Shot For a Deer. Surrounded by the choking smoke of a raging forest fire, .ex cited from the fact that he had just shot his first deer, lost from the irall and wandering about in the Winding smoke in a vain attempt fossin .it. AVesiey Jyle a 19-vy-ear-old youth recently from Iowa, lata 3 shot down in the mountains iear Cow Creek, Or. , Friday after noon bv a gun in the hands of the 'IRev.. E. Meminger," pastor of iie Mount Tabor M. E. JChurch, Portland. Pyle was brought to Portland yesterday morning and was taken to the tiooa &amari- 4au Hospital, "where he is resting easily with good chances of com plete recovery. The shooting is said to have been accidental and occured while the Rev. Mr. Mem inger and the three other men in hispaitv were hunting deer. The weapon was a rifle of 3030 bore. "Chitk" Shai.r.an, of Forest Grove, a f.rouer 0. A. C. student and football player, passed through this city, Friday enroute to the Siltlz countiy Fort Clatsop "The Plymouth Rock of the Pacific." In his article in the August Pacific Monthly descriptive of the expedition which fixed the site of Fort Clatsop, P. V. Gillette, the well-known pioneer re fers to this histortc spot : Lewis and Clark reached and selected this point on the 7th day of December, 1805, and on the 8th began to cut down trees, clear land and build their cabins. They erecte i teven cabins in all ; the smoke house was built first, in order to have a place to smoke and dry their meat. A storehouse was built for their auiinu Di:ion, ttores. etc.; a small cabin for Tousaint Chabonau. the interpreter, and his wife, "Sa : a-ja-wea," and the re mainder of the cabins were used as quarters for officers and men. As soon as the houses were completed, they con structed a strong blocka le around the clearing, as a protection against the Indians. The stockade enclosed something. over a half acre of land, and stood on the high land about two hundred yards back of the river; within and on the north side of the indou're was a beautiful spring which supplied the garrison with an abundance of pure water. After the fort was completed, a number of men were set to work to survey and open a trail through the forest to the ocean, three miles west. ALCOHOLIC SOMNAMBULISM. Pmllw Effect on Some People of In dnUrenee In Intoxicating LlquoTa. , Dr. Francotte, of Liege, has published a carefully prepared paper, having spe cial reference to the medico-legal rela tions of the somnambulism which is met with as a result of alcoholism. Somnambulism, regarded as the con dition in which, during loss of con sciousness, coordinated actions are car ried out, of which there is no recollec tion afterward, is met with not only in hysteria, epilepsy, and the hypnotic state, but also as a result of alcoholic indulgence. The author relates the fol lowing case of a man who was arrested for disorderly conduct in a public place. He could not be induced to answer ques tions or even to speak, and appeared to be quite demented. There was no sign of intoxication, but next morning at the medical examination, he con fessed that at a place far distant from that at which he had been arrested, he had imbibed a large quantity of alco hol. He had completely lost recollec tion of what had occurred during the next 48 hours. He confessed to other excesses in alcohol, and there was marked tremor of the hands and of the tongue. A sister had been the subject of mental disease.' The author, after citing several examples, concludes that there is a species . of alcoholic som nambulism in which the patient be haves to all appearance in a normal waj;, .but without consciousness, or at least without having any recollection of what he has done. In reality, how ever, daring such a time certain slight peculiarities 'of conduct are present which may easily escape the observer. The condition manifests itself only in degenerate individuals, or at least in those who have inherited some psychic weakness, and as it is one which im plies the absence of responsibility, un less it is intentionally induced, it is of great medico-legal importance. Neu rologisches Centralblatt.. THE ADVOCATE'S EPIGRAMS. Never drink, never drunk. . Swim in sin, sink in sorrow. Duties are ours, events are God's. There is no evil without a remedy. Two glasses of beer are two too many. Look before you leap,' the. ditch may be deep. Peer is never as flat as those who drink it. ,i A drunken night makes a cloudy morning. , . Saloons are toll-gates on the way to perdition. . . What soberness conceals drunken ness reveals. Wine smiles in the cup, but stings in the conscience. Often ' drunk, never sober, falls like leaves in October. Drunkenness is midnight, moderation is twilight, abstinence is daylight. ' Xir Law In Germany. The sixth paragraph of the new code, which will come into operation inGer many in 1900, enacts compulsory treat ment of habitual drunkards, involving their being placed under a curator, who will be, empowered to put the invalid anywhere for v treatment until ' dis charged from curatorship by the court. The exact description is: "He who, in consequence . inebriety, 'cannot pro vide for his affairs, or brings himself or his family into the danger of need or endangers the safety of othe'rs. This measure was first advocated in 1S63 at a meeting at Hanover." A :" Look at the price! $1.25 per gallon for tA ftMim i'otIIxm cnnrhlicvl (Small Ac son.
