There is oomfort in tbe knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy fulfils every wish io relieving pain io tbe baok, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passages. It oor- reots inability to bold urine and bo aid ing pain in passing it, or bad effects fol lowing use of liquor, wine or beer, and overoomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate.

Chapman's new paper, is taking up tbe sohooi book question denouncing the American Book Company. While the average oitieen dislikes public monopoly in any form, he does not oare to be taxed for the consolation of "downing the monop oly," and it tbe Amerioan Book Com pany's publications are dispensed with, new books must be purchased. Those now in use give general satisfaction and a "reform" that means cash out to the bead of tbe family will meet with little favor. Oorvalis Qazette. Land Commissioner Hermann, for many years congressman from Oregon, has done several good and important jobs sinoe be took oharge ot the land office, the latest being tbe rejection of I the claim of two men to the whole town- site ot Dyea. 1 Mr. Hermann baa at least temporarily defeated tbe preposterous olainis ot several snob land-grabbers.

The East Oregoolao is informed by tbs "Lantern, a weekly paper pnblisbed In Portland, which does not hide its light, that "General H. B.

Oregon City Enterprise. Governor Lowndes declares that he will abandon his oandidaoy for the United States senate rather than justify tbe popular belief tbat be will "use the patronage of my offioe to make myself senator from Maryland, by prostitution of the office I bold, for my personal ad vancement." Spoken like a maa and a patriot. But there is still a large and aching void in the place where a similar resolution from Governor Busbndl should be recorded. Oregonian. The aoti-Hanna orowd at Columbus announces their determination to force a deadlook. . This affords very' little as sistance to those who have been contend ing that tbe Ohio oanvass disoourages election of senators by popular vote. When tbe battle is over and this scan dalous speotecle of federal appointees lobbying against state appointees is withdrawn, good many persons will have oause to favor eleotion of senators by direot vote, and to agree tbat, it a man cannot oommand a majority ot tbe voters, be is not the man for senator.
