At no time in the history of Oregon has there been so much railroad agitation throughout the state as at present is in evidence, lack of railway facilities more than any other one thing has worked to the detriment of the state and retarded progress. This is not new , to. readers of the Gazette, for while this paper has ever been liberal in its senti ments, it has, nevertheless, from time to lime commented on this particular state need- At present there seems to be growing a sentiment against the Harriman system. Mr. Harn- man has been among the people, broke bread and took wine with them, but said nothing, made no promises. His attitude in Port land was not reassuring to the business men of that city. There was a vagueness about his utter ances that gave the impression that he desired to convey a quiet ing idea to the public, 'while in reality he promised nothing. Is the railroad history of Cali fornia to repeat itself in Oregon? For years our sister to the south writhed in the grasp of the Southern Pacific, but do as they would the people of that section could not free themselves of the claw&that scratched for blood. The pound of flesh was not nougb, was not satisfying. In Oregon things have not been so bad, but the development of the state requires that the railroads extend their lines. There is at present no state in the Union that offers so much to railroads as does Oregon: In Central Oregon are large areas awaiting the advent of a rail road. Thousands of acres of land are there, a portion of it already under the plow, and the entire product of the country awaits the company first build' ing-there a trade worthy any carrier is to be had for the tak ing. Who will claim it? Will Harriman take hold and force a line here and there as it is needed? Did his manner of indirectness when before the people of Portland recently in dicate that he ' had plans for future actions favorable to the interests of Oregon that he did not care to divulge? or did it mean that his company was satis fied as things are and he would not place it on record for any thing different? Let Harriman or any . other railroad man do as they may, the fact remains that the people of the State of Oregon are awakening- to a realization that upon the pestion of railroads more large ly than any other one thing hinges the matter of state de--velopment. The people are fast tiring- of a policy whereby all the benefits go in one direction, and there is a growing sentiment in favor of some good, up-to-date railroad legislation when the law making- body of Oregon next convenes in regular session. Closes Its Doors. For some time in the past there has been considerable dis content on the part of Oregon lans anent normal schools.. This was made very apparent during the last sessions of the legislature but was made even more promi nent and conspicuous by the in Tocation of the referendum dur ing the sprine. With the Wes too Normal School things are in a bai way and is dp--Ts are to be closed during .1,1 c nning year, as the following ci.3p.1tch clearly indicates: ' . The Weston Normal School will not run during the coming year, efforts to raise money by snbcriotion having been dpfirtit-f 13 aiiandoned, President Preucu and others ot" the faculty, it is be lieved, have becared other posi tions, and the former left here tedav for Portland. It was felt useless to try longer to secure monev, since if the appropriation bill falls next Tune, another subf .scrjDtjon would he necessaiv. Five thousand three hundred and i i. j . . - ,pihtw nnllarc has hosn tqicpH for the school and $10,000 was needed. Suspension of the Nor mal at Weston means a seveie blow 10 that town, as the attend ance was com para tivt-ly large and the students brought annually a large influx of money. . The handsome new .institution, was completed only iii 1902, and is one of the biggest and best equip ped scho. Is in the state. In ad dition its presence on ti e hillside hack of We--t.ni has bnilt up te 1 estate value- tn tbat district, anl the town itciived much benefi cial advertising from the fact that it had Eastern Oregon's only training place for teachers. &:ust PAY UP. Many Corporations Owe the State Money. According to the strict inter pretation of the corporation tax law, several hundred corpor ations will find their corpora e powers suspended to-day, accord ing to toe statements made in a recent dispatch sent out from Salem, Saturday, unless they pay their general license fees by that time. It is said that only about three fourths of the companies doinrr business in this state have paid their tax this vear, and the last day of the time specified for pay ment was yesterday, August 14 It is possible that'all corporations paid yesterday, but it is not prob able, and it is declared that number of important corporations are among those tnat have not yet paid. . Section 5 of the corporation tax law requires that the Secretary of State file with the State Treasurer on or before Joly 15, a-statement ot the amount of license fees due from each corporation "Within 30 days thereafter every such corporation shall pay or cause to be paid to the State Treasurer the license fee hereinbefore mentioned." Failure of any corporation to make its annual report or pay its annual fee for 20 days after the time specified renders the corporation liable to a fine. of $109. section a 01 tne law provides that '"no domestic corporation, and no foreign corporation, joint stock; company or association, which shall have failed to pay the annual license fee, or any other tax or fee which shall have become dui and payable against it, as provided in this act or any law of this state, shall be permitted to maintain any suit, action or proceeding in any court of justice within this state, while such delinquency shall continue." ; Sectioa 10 provides that a plea that any domestic corporation or foreign cor poration, joint stock company or assoc iation has Eot paid any tax or fee re quired by any law r of this state and which is then due and payable, m ay be interposed at any time before trial upon the merits in any actioa, suit or proceed ing, and if iasue be joined upon ' such plea, the same shall be first tried. Such plea cannot be made at any time by the delinquent corprat on " It thus appears from the lauguage of the statute that a corporation's powers are suspended whenever a tax is due and unpaid, but the concern is not liable to a fine until it has been delinquent 20 days. The suspension of powers operates as well in the case of the ordinary property tax as in the . case of the lice jee tax, for the statute says, "any tax required by any law of this state.'' A Gigantic Josh. Professor J. B. Horner return ed from Eastern Oregon last Sat urday, where he had been work ing several weeks in the interest of the OAC. Referring to the Gazette item which stated that the Professor had lately killed two deer, he said the announce ment was a little previous that he had not hunted nor killed any deer yet, but he assured the Ga zette man that on the first of September he would go into the mountains and get the two deer mentioned, at which time he would have plenty of venison for all his friends Inasmuch as the Professor looks lean and; lank, and no one can be found who collected any fine or venison from him, the Gazette man is of the opinion 1 that the venison story sprung from a gigantic "josh. v , OANY FOOL i Knows enough to carry an umbrella when it rains, but the wise one is he who carries one when it is only cloudy. -ajiiy man wn. send for a doctoi when he geu bed-fast, but thV wiser one is he who adopts proper precau tionary, preven tive and curative measures when first appear the ills which, if un checked and un cured, grow into serious illness.

Va, If your liver does not act reg ularly go to your druggist and secure a pacKage or rneorora Black-Draught and take a dose tonicht. This dtps.- family medicine frees the constipated bowels, stirs up the torpid liver and causes a healthy secretion of bile. Tbedford's Black - Draught will cleanse the bowels of im purities and strengthen the kid neys. A torpid liver invites colds, biliousness, chills and fever and all manner of sick ness and contagion. Weak kid neys result in Bright 's disease which claims as many victims as consumption. A 25-cent package of Thedford's Black Draught should always be kept in the house. ."I nsd - Thedford's Black- Dranpht for liver and kidney com plaints and fonnd nothing to excel .''-WILLIAM COFFMAN, Mm blehead. 111.

It entirely stopped the brick dust sediment, and pain and symptoms of kidney disease disappeared. - I am glad to say tbat I have never had a. re turn of any of those symptoms during the four years that have elapsed and I am evidently cured to stay cured, and hearti ly recommend Foley's Kidney Cure to any one sutler ing from kidney or bladder trouble.'

"I lost flesh and never felt well and doctored with leading physicians and tried all remedies without relief. Finally I tried Foley's Kidney Cure and lees than two bottles cured me and I am now sound and well."
