POOR PEOPLgg CHANCES.
Some years ago & city missionary
was crossing one of the parks in New
York on the Sabbath day and Baid to
a lad, "What are you doing here,
breaking the Lord's day? You ought
to be at Church and worshipping
God instead of breaking the Sabbath
in this way." The poor lad in hia
rags looked up at the city missionary
and said: "Oh, sir, it's very easy for
you to talk that way, but God knows
that we poor chaps ain't got no
chance."
The sentiment seems to be crowing
that in the United States the time has
arrived when "the poor chaps don't
have no chance."
There is some truth in it. The poor
are not shut out from making a liveli
hood, but the gulf between riches and
poverty continually grows more diffi-
ult to cross. As the country becomes
densely populated keen business com
petition decreases the chances for
accumulatingwealth by ordinary busi
ness methods.
But the same conditions vastly im
piove the chances for great success

will win easily and with grand results
in this country, if the masses can be
induced to recognize it. This recogni
tion can ouly bo accomplished by
v.liat are pometitnes sneeringly al
luded to as advertising methods.
What a marvelous success has at
tended the thorough introduction to
the world of the merits of that wonder
ful remedy for kidney disease War
ner's Safo Cure. Hon. If. II. Warner
first came to know of its curative
power by being restored to health
from what the doctors pronounced a
fatal kidney trouble. He concluded
the world ought to know of it and in
the ten years since he began its
manufacture he has spent millions oi
dollars in advertising the Safe Cure.
His methods have been ingenious
sometimes, perhaps, open to criti
cism, but they had a purpose, which
has been accomplished.
But mark! lie never would have
secured a four fold return of the vast
sums thus expended if the real merit
of the remedy had not been fully
proven to the millions of people
reached by his advertisements.
Ten years of increasing success ol
"Warner's Safe Cure is due, first, to
intelligent and pleasing advertising,
by which the people were.jnada.
acquainted with the Tfimedy. Sejdifd,
to the true woith of the remedy,'
proved by actual experience, showing
it to be the onlii upecifie for kidney
disease, and all diseases growing out
of kidney derangements.
Mr. Warner has something the
people want, tells them so, then
proves it to their satisfaction success
follows as a matter of course.

VILLARD AND THE 0. B. & H.
The Belief That He Has Got Control
There seems to be no doubt that
Henry Villard has got control of the
Oregon Railway and Navigation, and
that Elijah Smith will be ousted from
the presidency nt the annual meeting
to be held in Portland next month.
He is expected here to make his own
fight, and it is believed by many rail
road men that he will be elected to
tho presidency. Some say that the
last issue of 310,000,000 worth of ad
ditional preferred bonds gives him
control, while others aver that he had
the upper hand without this valuable
adjunct. Villard would have been
elected last year had the Oregon and
Transcontinental meeting been held
before the Oregon Railway and Navi
gation meeting. The fact that he
was elected president of the Oregon
and Transcontinental is considered
evidence that he had the power. Fort
land prefers Villard to Smith. The
latter is not held in high esteem, be-cause.-when
he got hold of the Oregon
Railway and Navigation, he downed
every officer who took an interest in
the company or city and then reduced
the wages of the employes.
Villard's scheme is thus explained
by a director of the Oregon fc Traus
continential, one of the men, by tho
way, who voted for the issuance
of the new stock. This is what ho
said:
"Villard is largely interested in the
O. R. & N. himself, and besides, be
holds a large block of stock as trustee
for German capitalists. When the
joint lease was off, and the Union and
Northern Pacific began fighting and
building into each other's territory,
hesaid that neither would make any
thing by it, while on the other hand
the value of stock of both would be
Hepreeiated. Therefore he was com
pelled to take this step to protect
himself and his interests in the North
era Pacific and O. R. & N. He will
become president of the O. R. & N.
in June, and that will be the end of
war. r think he will take the presi
dency of the Northern Pacific next
September, when all troubles will be
finally and amicably settled. When
he gets control of the Northern he
will pnt into force his policy of
division of territory suggested when
the joint lease was under discussion.
Then he will say: 'Portland, there is
so mnch territory,' tmd'to the Seund:
'There is.your..shre,&3c-'':" I

emphatically declares his innocence in
a card in to-day's Oregonian of the
crime of incest A witness in the
grand jury room while Jarvis' ruined
daughter was testifying to the unnat
ural conduct of her father, said she
told the story so straight and appar
ently truthful that none of her listen
ers could help believing every word.
She narrated all she could remember
from her girlhood, and it was manifest
to everyone that her recital of the re
volting details was not a concerted
story. The unfortunate woman stated
that her mother is in an insane asylum
and that the woman her father' now
claims as his wife is" not ,married to
him. Grand jury will report on Jar
