Presidential election Nov. 3. HIS PLATFORM. A railway conductor, remon- strating with a passenger for standing on the platform said: "Platforms are not for standing on but for getting in on." Gov ernor Geo. E. Chamberlain, a candidate for United States Sen ator for Oregon has given to the world in general, and to Oregon U 1 : : nn.hSmilnn fVio nlof. repuuiiuillia in jai uuuiai cue n- form which he has framed for the purpose of "getting in on." A few extracts from his plat form will suffice, for the present, to show how difficult a task the governor had in framing a plat form which should entice repub licans, offend no democrat and serve his own unselfish, non-partisan ends that is to get in on. Aftrr the usual statement of importunity by' many from a parties to become a candidate he launches out : "I believe firmly in the direct primary." If he did not so be lieve he'd be the only exception in Oregon. "I believe in the election of United States Senators by direct vote of the people, Years ago Oregon, by the action of a republican legislature, offi cially expressed the desire of Ore gonians that this method of choos' ing senators should be adopted For many years the senators and representatives in congress from Orecron have favored and now favor this method. The gover nor has no advantage here over either Senator Fulton or Mr. Cake. "To accomplish this no candi date should be elected to the leg islature who does not unquali fiedly sign Statement No. 1." George E. should hang on here it is his best hold, but he has no mnnnnOlv of it. But this, he says, is the only issue. Has the tariff been revised, the currency Rvst.pm corrected and a score of things carried to completion along republican lines as they should be ? Republicans see that there are other issues, vital issues of greater moment than this. Can the President and the Republican party be better served by a non partisan senator who is a Demo crat than bv an earnest, tried and true Republican ? Mr. Chamberlain would have us believe so. for, from his own language we gather that no Re publican, even though he has im bibed his Republican principles with his mother's milk, can be in rr.ore nerfect accord with the President than he, the non-part isan Democrat Geo. E. Chamber lain. Hear him; " The President of the United States and theDem ocratic and Republican masses are in accord on all vital issues. As a result the President has an tagonized large numbers of his own party." Truly this is a most unusual result of accord. But then the accord of the Democratic masses Anmnuncit oa f7r f-Vi Anhncrrmism of such "large numbers of his own party. " Of course the Dem ocratic party lines right up squarely with the President and supports him and his policies. That is what the Democratic party sends Senators to congress for. What man of any party in Oregon is in such perfect accord with the President as Mr. Cham berlain ? He says "I have been in hearty accord with most of the policies of the President." This tense, "hjvf hppn." is not satisfactory, tion an omce separate trom a We are not ignorant of what sort private business, at the City Hall, of accord he has shown in the past with men and measures known as Republican, but since he seeks Republican support he should plainly state the present measure of his accord. Is it full, fair, frank, earnest accord based on life-long devotion to Republi can principles : Mot for a mo ment do we believe it. Then what policies does he exclude from "hearty accord" by' the phrase "most policies?" These, in the opinion of Republicans, may be vital issues. He certainly should explain these things at large to Republicans. Will he do so ? Probably not until he is sworn in as Senator from Oregon. But if he goes to the United States Senate it will be because the members of the legislature have no discretion in the matter, and must support him, even though it violate the conscience of every member. It is necessary that Senators respect and obey the will of the people. The Gov ernor is very earnest on this mat ter. "There is no othsr issue be fore the people" he assures us. He has us almost persuaded that he alone, if elected, would consult the people in all things and obsequiously bow to their will. We are all most convinced (he would refer the style of his clothes and the brand of his whis key to the will of the people, the dear, abused, senatorially be deviled people. But, hold ! If elected, "I will support those measures, whether of a Republi can or Democratic administration which my conscience approves." We do not quarrel with the Gov- j ernor tor this. Tney all do so or should do so. Possibly the members of the legislature should do. When conscience enters the arena argument may cease. Yet indeed, the governor should say what kind his conscience is. Is it "void of offense toward God and man ?" Is it ' 'seared as with a hot iron," or is it of the elastic. India rHbber sort which best serves a non-partisan Democrat when angling for Republican votes ? W'th a hint to Harry Murphy, we think, could the Colossus of Rhodes have seen it he would have jumped down, beaten at his own art by the greater straddle of our Governor. With one !foot resting on the Democratic Jack ass, ana tne otner ligntiy planted on "the Republican Elephant., and install- proper files and other equipments which will enable him to more conveniently care for the increasing work of the office." This will not only re- J quire a man ot clerical ability but one well versed in law, and to our mind we could not find a man more peculiarly fitted for this important position than G. W. Denman. For twelve years he has filled his present position as County School Superintend ent, not only spending his entire time in Jthe work, but also the principal part of his salary in the cause of education. He has made one of the best Superin tendents in the State and placed the schools of this county on such an advanced plane that it will make his successor hustle to maintain the present high stand ard of excellence. While s'ome of us were asleep George studied law and will be admitted to the bar at the next term of court and hence he is legally well qualified. His rec ord of doing things in the past is ample assurance of his ability to make a good Police Judge, The Corvallis & Eastern railway ?I1I sell ronnd trip tickets to Ya quioa on Wrfnwddye and Satur days only of each "wwk at $3.25, eond for return within 60 dys.

With the enviable record he has made as an officer our peo ple will regret to see Mr. J. F, l ates step out ot the omce of Police Judge at the end of his resent term. Since 1895 he has held the office, having twice been elected, and had he not refused to stand as a candidate it is lislilv probable he would have been re-elected without oppDsi tion for the third term. It is seldom we see a man hold such a position without making many enemies, but when h red put the trimmings on an offend r lie did it in such easy, grace ful and dignified manner, always tempering justice with mercy, that none seemed to take offense. Malice never enters into his rul- ngs and in all the trying cir cumstances his well balanced mental faculties have been equal to the occasion. The fact that that the City Council, without olicitation on his part, and cer- ainly presuming he would be a candidate for re-election, raised the salary of the office, hows their appreciation of his ervices. We believe that when a man makes a good officer it is the duty of the people to say so as it is always an incentive to his uccessor to emulate his exam- le and keep step with the rapid growth of the town. Now that Mr. Yates has hon orably retired as a prospective indidate, suggestion's naturally come to our minds as to his suc- essor. As indicated by Mr. Yates in his retiring card, the office of Police Judge has grown to be a question of vital import- nce to the city and it "should furnish the holder of this posi- ti In his Corvallis speech last June Senator Fulton made the declaration that if he did not re ceive the popular indorsement in June he would not be a candi date before the " legislature. In view of the activity of his, parti sans in the state against State ment No. 1, The Journal had its Washington correspondent ask Senator Fulton if he still stands by that declaration, and his an swer thereto was "I am notmuk ing any statements now." This refusal to reiterate his declara tion, together with the opposition of his Oregon friends to State ment No. 1, raises the question, if, after all, the Fulton move ment has not had its ultimate in an attempted legislative election instead of popular choice. The plan of some of his friends of accepting a candidate if he be all right politically has its wide ten dency toward promoting a com plexity that will after all throw the choice into the legislature.

There is hardly a family in Corvallis where there is not one or more members who suffer at times from the effects of a weak stomach. It may be that this occurs only after eating some food that does not agree, or because of a supper latest night; or it may he that the stomach is so weak that scarcely any food can be eaten w.tnout t ain and distress. The only way to treat a condition of tnis sina successiuiiy is wita Mi-o-na. It removes the canee of indigestion, weak ness of the muscles of the stomach and bowels, and restores the whole digestive system to health and strength so that it takes care of all the food that is eaten. Get well and strong by using Mi o-na tablets. Take the remedy at the first symptom of indigestion, when von can be cured easily with a few doses. How ever, no case ot stomach trouble is too se vere or chronic for Mi-o-na to overcome. Graham & Wells sell it nnder an abso lute guarantee to refund the money un -less it cures. - A 50-cent box lastgfor a couple of weeks, ' and will do more real good than a dozen boxes of the ordiuary digestive tablets.
