Strange as it may seem, Cref field is again at the head of a little colony . of his adherents and the fact that a camp is to he located somewhere near Wald port, in Lincoln county, is pretty generally known. That there are those who would be led astray a second time by such a dirty rascal is, alas! too true. To a person of sane judge ment it seems strange, in fact, it passeth human understanding, that such a creature as Creffield could have secured a following in the first place. To again es tablish his practices after hav ing served a term in the state penitentiary would seem doubly im possible. Yet such is l he case. Adultery landed Creffield behind prison bars and, shameful as it maybe, adultery and Holly Roller ism seem inseparable. One would think that with many, if not all of the followers of "Joshua" Creffield the First in the insane asylum and Cref iicid himself in the peniten tiary, would have cured all of their fanaticism. One by one all who were sent to the asylum were discharged and sent to their homes supposedly cured. JLater liberty was granted Cref- iieldL Are the same conditions to again prevail? I the same scenes be enacted? and the same remedies applied? What can fee done with or for a people vho are so weak as to follow the damnable teachings and practices of a man like Creffield? We .give it up. What steps the Lincoln county authorities will take in the mat ter is not known. If we mis judge them not they will act promptly, now that they know the results of Holy Rollerism, and use every means within their power to protect their people from pollution by Creffield. BE NOT MISLED. There seems to be some dis satisfaction in certain democrat ic circles about the republican nominees for election- We are sorry to see an accusation made of "jobbery" and "combine" and emphatically deny that any such statement is founded in fact All men who took a prominent part in the recent primary elec tion we believe to be men of honor, be they republicans or democrats, and feel assured that the primaries were conduct ed on honorable lines. It is an unfortunate thing that every candidate cannot be nomi nated and later elected, but the fates decree against it. We sincerely hope that all may look at the matter philosophically and accept conditions as they really are and not be affected by the imaginings of those whose interests it would be to start a strife. Did You Ever! 1 newest is a treat country In more ways than one. Here are crealious of nature on gram scue ana tmu-s unique are uo numerous to mention But we are not so wild as Kast- ern people are fain to believe .Svne very amusing: absurdities are bruited absard and ofteu fiud soace in the newsopers.

Ia cur school bov days we used to read in the geographies' oi that penoa ot the pamj as of South America where large herds of wild horses roamed the p'ains, and their hides, tallow and flesh formed the principal articles of support to the half breed Gnachos who inhabited the region. Wild horses were a'so found on the plains of our great West, and the broncho and the Indian pony are decendants ot those herds. It is news that they are still roaming the plains as far north ai Oregon, and also that their only value is that put upon them by the South Amer ican" Guachos. They are not worth the trouble of domesticat ing, it seems, and so cowboys have been secured to round up the heard and do the slaughter ing. Better look out that the beef trust does not take a hand in the work of destruction and secure the business of distribut ing the remains. A Real Man. Stephen A. Lowell, of Pendle ton, Or., was given a splendid vote in this county for senatorial nomination on the republican ticket. His many ardent sup porters will be pleased to know that he is not "sulking in his cent." and they should bear in mind that the day will come when the people of Oregon will beckon to Mr. Lowell that he may come forth. In order .that his many friends may know how philosophically he is viewing the situation we publish the loll'ow ing letter sent to R. C. Wills, of this city: April 23, 1906. Robert Wills, Corvallis, Oregon. Dear Sir The result of the pri mary election indicates the nomi nation of Mr. Cake, of Portland, to tne seuatorship, and I beg to express my thanks to friends in the various counties for their kind offices in my behalf and to ay that I trust some time in the future to be able to reciprocate. It has been apparent for the last ten days that the contest was between Mr. Cake and mysell for the anti-Bourne vote, the sent' ment over the state manifesting a willingness on the part of the electorate to support either man most likely to receive the snp port necessary to accomplish Mr. Bourne's defeat, and mturalh at the last moment the balances turned in favor of the Mult nomah man because ot the expec tation that location would give him the support ot the City of Portland in a large degree. I am sure that Mr. Cake will make an efficient senator and I believe he is entitled lo the support of all republican?. With thanks for many cour tesies, and with assurances of personal regard, I am, Yours truly, Stephen A. Lowell A3 Oakland Letter. Ralph Pruett, of this citv, re ceived a letter Tuesday, from his parents, who reside in Oak land and were in the earthquake recently. They stated that nearly all the plastering: was shaken off their house, almost I every disti they possessed was smashed, the clock was hurled into the middle of the floor and broken, all the plumbing wa Iwisted and put out of working order, and a general smashing ud ws experienced bv all. The letter savs that every church. city hall and public building ha.-, been converted into shelters foi the refugees who are flooding the city, and that no church services were held in Oakland the Sun day before the epistle was written The noise of the earthquake is described as similar to an express train crossing a bridge, only that it was much more terrific and terrible. While the usual population of Oakland is 100,000 the letter to Mr. Pruett says, that the present population is 250,000 giving some idea ot the congested condition that exists in towns within reach of San Francisco. No Pacific Coast Panic. In certain quarters there ia discussion as to the effect which the San Francisco disaster will have upon the financial conditions on the Pacific Coast. It is even thought by some that there is danger of disruption of Pacific Coast busiaess, affecting all Pacific Coast cities, amounting, in ' fact to at least a mild fjrm of financial panic. This apprehensoa is unfounded. It Young Basil's Cloffoin Ederheimer Stein & Co.

The fact is that the majority of business concerns in San Francisco are solvent. This is especially true of the greater finamial in-iitntions, almost without exception, e.nd the exceptions it ill not effect the general result. It will make no difference if Eastern financial ceuters refuse for the time being, to grant Sa:i Fraucisco buamese bouses the credit to winch they are en titled nnder nrmI c in linon.

"Five years asro tbis last fall Itvas taken down with a fever and was very bad for several months." writes Mrs. Henrietta Bell, of Diamond. Ohio. She continues: "Finally recovered from the fever, then my lungs became very bad. The doctor said 1 had consumption, and that he had done all he could for me, and he did not think that I could get well. My case was a very dar.frer ous one. Became very weak, had nigrht sweats. also a very bad cough, nig-ht and day. At times would spit blood. I felt as though my time on earth would be short. Requested my husband to get me a bottle of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and perhaps it would help me. Before I had taken one Dottle my cough was almost gone. The next to disappear were the night-sweats. I am almost sure that if it had not been for your medicine I would not have been here to-day." If mothers will only write to Dr. Pierce concerning the ailments of their family he will send them sound and valuable advice in a plain sealed envelope, and without any charge whatever.

In the early sixties it was usually the duty of a practicing physician to ride many miles every day on his regular round of visits upon nis patients. In those davs a young man who had received a splendid medical training in one of the best medical colleges of that day was ac customed to ride ten, twenty, thirty miles or more visiting the sick and afflicted. His success was soon phenomenal. Doc tors and families called him for consulta tion to towns at considerable distances by rail. His specialty was the cure of those common and distressing diseases of women. He had early discovered that by combining the extracts of the follow ing medicinal plants, in just the right proportion, without the use of alcohol nis "Prescription" almost invariably cured such cases. Later, in order to place this remedy before the public in a shape easily to be procured, he established a labo ratory at Buffalo, N. Y., where regu larly qualified chemists were put in charge to accurately prepare his "Pre scription " and put it in shape for ship ment to all parts of the world. This remedy, whicn he named Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is not a "patent medicine" but a tonic and nervine for women, and a regular physician's pre scription, and contains the following in gredients : Lady's Slipper root, Black April 27.

"It cures hemorrhages, Chronic Coughs, Settled colds and Bron chitis, and is the only known cure for weak lungs.
