It is n ir-.-Moriilly recognized truth
InKrcilit'iiU are a great deal better adapted to the delicate human system, ana
sa.'er in evry way, than those composed of strong linineral mixtures and
compounds. Mercury, potash, arsenic, etc., which are used in the manufac
turs of most blood medicines, are too violent in their action, and frequently
derange the system by disturbing the stomach and digestion, affecting
the bowels, and when used for a prolonged period often cause Rheumatism.

Shot in the Back by Disreptlta-
ble Portland Law
yer Portland, Nov. 28. A tragic fea
ture of the slaying of Ralnh B. Fish
er, chairman of th grievance com
mittee of the Oregon State Bar As
sociation here today by J. A. Finch,
the disbarred, lawyer, second only to
the killing itself, was the unexpected
visit to Fisher's office of Mrs. Fisher.
When Finch entered Fisher's of
fice and with the words, "Hello,
Ralph," on bis Hps fired the fatal
shots, Fisher was waiting for his
wife and baby son. Fisher's body
had been taken away from his of
fice but there were other ghastly evl-
Aannoo nnnDvcnt nrhifh pnnvpvpit tn
I Mrs. Fisher th'at her husband had
i been slain.
I Fisher has practiced law in this
city four years, coming here from
Wondbnrn. His wife was a sister
of Thomas B. Kay, woolen manufac
turer of Salem. Fisher was 28 years
old. He was the man who drafted
the resolutions of sympathy to Mrs.
Francis J. Heney sent by the bar
association. Finch was born In this
state and studied law in Albany,
while working for a newspaper. .
Fisher conducted disbarment pro
ceedings against Finch which result
ed in his suspension for a year and
It was Fisher's refusal to sign a pe
tition urging Finsher's reinstate
ment that caused today's attack to be
made.
Finch waB either out of his mind
when he shot Fisher, or he Is playing
a deep game, using his knowledge
of the law to help him in his present
dilemma. While he asserted in the
most emphatic language that he did
not see Fisher at all today and con
sequently did not kill him, he talks
perfectly frank on all other subjects.
He does not plead forgetfulness. on
thu other hand 'when the officers
who examined him tonight declared
to Finch that he had been seen In
Fisher's office and had been arrest
ed In the Mohawk building and
other matters connected with the
tragedy, he becomes very excited and
told them they were "damned liars."
He Insisted that he Is not insane.
He says that the news that He was
disbarred was a great shock to him.
He denied that he had been drink
ing excessively since that event.
The tragedy occurred In Fisher's
private office 322 Mohawk building,
Third and Morrison -streets. Miss
Vorna Bnrkhardt, Fisher's steno
grapher, was the only witness, and
she fled screaming from the room, i

was still pouring and looked down
upon the prostrate form he had
slain. He gazed coolly and appar
ently unmoved upon the bleeding
figure, uttered not n word, turned
and walked out In custody of the offi
cers. "I wouldn't speak to him, and I'll
get the rest of the bunch." he said,
to one of the officers whp rode in
the patrol wagon with him.
At the city Jail he positively denied
the murder to District Attorney

HITCHCOCK MAY
GIVE FULTON AID
Hot Springs, Va., Nov. 28. A dis
patch to the Washington Post says in
part:
"Senator Fulton is here to offset
any Influence which his colleague.
Senator Bourne, may have exerted
during the past week upon Mr. Tnft.
Mr. Bourne is In favor of the election
of Governor Chamberlain. Mr. Ful
ton, on the other hand, does not be
lieve a Democrat should be chosen,
since the Republicans have a large
majority in the legislature. Mr.
Bourne has been hoping to persuade
Mr. Taft to express himself In favor
of Mr. Chamberlain's election. His
colleague hopes that the president
elect will not only not be Influenced
In such a way, but may take the ex
actly opposite position.
Logic of Situation
"The logic of the situation is that
If 'Mr. Taft expressed any opinion at
all, it should be In favor of Mr. Ful
ton. The latter senator was advocat
ing the nomination of Mr. Taft whin
Mr. Bourne was Insisting that Pres
ident Roocsevelt should be nominated
for a second elective term. Mr.. Ful
ton worked hard In co-operation with
the state organization during the
campaign, and the state gave the Re
publican nominee a tremendous ma
jority. "Mr. Fulton had a long conferenc
with National Chairman Hitchcock
this afternoon and subsequently .th
two men saw the prosld'mt-elect. II
may be safe to assume that Mr. Taft
will not Inject his personality into the
Oregon situation, in pursuance of the
policy he already has announced, of
not taking part in purely state con
troversies. But undoubtedly the sym
pathy of Mr. Hitchcock is with the
senior senator jind this may signify
a' great deal In the event he decide-
to exert himself in Mr. Fulton's be

Just as long as you have catarrh
your nose wlll'llch, your breath "will
be foul, you will hawk and spit, and
you will do other disgusting things
because you can't help yourself. The
germs of catarrh have got you in
their power; they are continually and
persistently digging . into and irri

your nose and throat. They are now
making your life miserable; in time
they will sap your entire system ol
Its energy, its strength, its vigor and
vitality.
If you do not kill the loathsome
germs of catarrh, their desperate as

only a physical but a mental wreck.
This picture Is not overdrawn; the

such eases. He has personally expe

that Is Hyoinei, the Australian dry
