For long that party was under the domination, in this state, of a few selfish, self-seeking men who controlled the party organi ( zation for their own personal pur poses. Party principles were lost to sight or wholly neglected. The supreme test of one's republican ism was fidelity to the purposes and interests of the party "boss" or "bosses." The same test de cided a man's fitness for public office. For no office from ward constable to governor, inclusive, could any man not acceptable to the party boss receive nomination or be elected. It mayx be recalled that at the behest of a ring of party bosses, known as "the state ring," Col ones Cornelius was nominated for governor. This was done in spite of the earnest protests of The Oregonian, speaking for itself and for scores of republicans who firmly held to the principles of the party but opposed petty, sel fish,' personal politics. The re sult of this election was the elec tion of Pennoyer for governor. The result would not have been greatly different had the Oregon ian given the most hearty sup port to Cornelius, for many r & publicans remained away from the polls and many others voted for the prohibition candidate. D. P. Thompson was the next republican candidate for gover nor. He was well qualified for the office, yet many of his per sonal .friends, including the Ore gonian, privately sought to dis suade him from entering the race. He was nominated but defeated at the polls, largely if not wholly, by the men who had supported Cornelius. We charitably pass the next choice of governor with the re mark that under normal influen ces and conditions that portion of the state's political history might have afforded more pleasant reading. Ic is not forgotten that the next two candidates of the republican party, W. J. Furnish and Dr. Withycombe were knifed to death at the polls by men calling them selves republicans but who know little of and care less for the principles, pol cies and achieve ments of the party. 1 It is not only in Multnomah and'Marion counties that faction, alivays t elfish, mischievous and reckless exists. It is seen in every county in the state. In some counties it finds its expres sion in county papers which are .easily controlled by considers tions other than party principles and policies, and the 'fitness of men for public office. Will this factional spirit be con tinued? Is there no Republican party it Oregon? You musM make answer, gentlemen. You who have delighted in faction of the rule or ruin sort must answer these questions, answer them promptly and unequivocally. There are probably no fewer republicans in the state than ever before, but the number who will support factionalism in the party is, we believe, on the wane. It certainly should" be. For our selves faction and selfish purpose need not look to us for any sort of support. We believe in the principles of the Republican party. We are proud of its his tory and its achievements, and ' shall continue to support its prin- ciples and policies -because they ! are most beneficent. -r . ii i s- VV nac, republicans 01 uregon, d of Benton county, will you do? ' .NO CAMPAIG V THUHDi B. A few unscrupulous politicians are undertaking to make political capital out of the present finan cial situation for the next elec- f- T. anoh nn .m,. the, nres; . . i v. j. I dent himself -ha3 made the best . repiy. in nis letter oeuiei.M,y i CortelyOU he says : - "Thereis no analogy at all with the way things were in 1896. On November 30 of that year there was in the treasury but 161 mill ion dollars in gold. On Novem ber 14 of this year there was in the treasury 904 million dollars in gold. ' Ten years ago the circula tion per capita was $2323. Now it is $33 23. The steps you now take, the ability of the govern ment to back them up and the fact that not a particle of risk is involved therein gives the fullest guarantee of the sound condition of our people and the sound con dition of our treasury. All that our people have to (Jo now is to go ahead with their normal busi ness in a normal fashion and the whole difficulty disappears ; and this end will be achieved if each man will act as he normally does act, and as the real conditions of the country's business fully war- rant his own acting. Ic is not impossible that a little ripple of this sort in finance will prove of great and permanent benefit to the business of the country. It is not unlikely that we have for the past five years been "too prosperous. " The ease with wliich people on the Pacific Coast have made money during the past few years may have had a tendency to dis courage precaution and economy and cause over-speculation, but notwithstanding this may be the case no line of legitimate busi ness has been hard pressed and in the end it will be a blessing in disguise. It will open up a "new channel by which emergencies may be met. Certain it is that the great masses of the American people were never so well off in this world's goods nor more safely entrenched against real poverty and misery SYNOPSIS OF THE MESSAGE. Recommendations of message of 1905 onsubjectof Federal con trol of corporations reiterated. Useless and vicious to attempt to prevent combinations but each should be checked when it acts against the law and justice. Federal control of interstate commerce should be made effect ive, not by extending Federal au thority but by extending Federal activity. This is not centraliza tion but realization that centrali zation in business has come. Amend Sherman anti-trust law to allow and regulate, beneficial combinations and prevent crea tion of evil enes- National control would benefit K corporations, as meat inspection has benefited the packers and the pure food law other industries. State and nation must co-operate in enforcing pure food laws. Currency law should be amend ed to provile emergency currency Tariff should be revised from business standpoint after Presi dential election. Inheritance tax should be im posed ; also income tax if consti- tutional. Abuse of injunctions should be prevented by change in laws. Government should inspect railroads and inquire into acci dents. Eight hour law should be ex tended to all Government work. National inspection and grad ing of grain are recommended. Land laws should be revised to prevent monopoly and promote home-making. National forests should be ex tended and logged-off land re planted. Duty on wood pulp should be repealed with agreement of Can- ada to repeal export duty on pulp vvood. rvl n c..,ia !lt J i l J leasea, not soia. , latter two the bulk of the team is select- National Gallery of Art needed. 'e"J. They say that the man found dead, under wierd circumstances, in a glittering hotel, took poison, and the chemists will make an analysis to learn exactly what kind of poison it was. But the real poison the man took was al cohol, the most alluring and most destructive of poisons. It allures because it has the double quality of deadening and intensifying. It deadens unhappiness by in tensifying pleasure. But while misery can be danced down with wine, women ana song, ine lugi tive from unhappiness awakens trembling from the gray rock of remorse. And remorse is worse than mere unhappiness. Every thing is gray and shuddering and the wretched man breaks the chain and sobers up in eternity. Ex. A man who had amassed quite a comfortable fortune in the prac tice of medicine bought a'farm in later life. After some years of experience on the farm he made the following statements, which are worthy the consideration of many a boy who is cut out for a good farmer, but has aspirations .for SOme profession for which he may have little more natural abil- ity than a pig has for music. Hear his conclusions : "I would exchange my age, money and acres for youth and forty acres, and think that I had the best of the bargain; and I would start the farm by planting ten acres of orchard, buying two sows, two cows and two setting hens. Youth, strength and hustle are a great sight better than money, and the wise youth can have a finer farm than mine before he passes the half century mark even though he have but a bare forty to begin with.

He is now at his home in Seattle after a prosperous season with the lemon yellow. Whether Frost will be retained as "oach another yar will not be settled until the meeting of the athletic council, December 18. How ever, it has never been the policy at the state university to employ my coach for two years in succession since the days of Simpson, frost's regime has been a de cided success, the team winning every game except that against the Oregon Agricultural College, the coast cham pions."

Breathe Hyomei's Tonic Healing ' and be Cured of Catarrh. Nature has a remedy for catarrh, a treatment that is far better than dosing the stomach with medicine. It is the healing oils and balsams of Hyomei which medicates the air you breathe, reaching the most remote air cells in the nose, throat and lungs, tilling all catarrhal germs, and restoring health to the mucous membrane. In Bsing Hyomti you are treating your catarrhal troubles with the only Datural remedy, for it gives a curative air batb to the air passages that has as powerful healing and antiseptic effect aj that found in the mountains where the pine forests give off their fragrant and healing bal sams.

Graham & Wells have seen so many cures, even of the worst cases of catarrh, with offensive breath, raising of mucus, frequent sneezing, droppings in tbe throat and spasmodic coughing, that they feel warranted in selling Hyomei under an absolute guarantee to refund the money if it does not do all that is claimed for it.
