FRIDAY, JULY 8, 1U10 PACE FOUR KOGl'E RIVER COURIER Caloric Cooftftoves The Modern Kitchen Marvel Hygienic, Scientific Economic THE modern 'Caloric" Cokstovc is a wonderful advance in flreless Cfijkory. It is entirely different from the ordinary, so-called flreless cookers, including lyiy boxes audi similar devices. It is different in construction and equipment and far sujM'rior in cooking efficiency. In it ore embodied patented features and principles Unit can not be obtained else where. The "Caloric" is a complete cookstove and will cook practically everything that can be cooked on an or dinary stove or range. It is the only one that will bake and ronwt perfectly without first partially cooking the food or reheating it before serving, as well as stew, steam, boll, etc. There is no cheaper nor better pro cess of cooking. It will save at least seventy-five per cent in fuel alone and a wonderful amount of time, labor and discomfort. All the nutriment and delicious flavors of foods are preserved and the toughest cuts of meat are made tender and palatable. With the "Caloric" there is no danger of scorching or burning everything per fectly cooked and ready to serve at your own conven ience. It is used in thousands of homes, sanitariums, Domestic Science Schools, etc. Every "Caloric" is guar anteed. Several Bizes. Kf R. H.

Senator Bourne Is placing Oregon In the front rank of those states where the peoplo rulo and the poli tical boss Is left out In the cold. lie made a speech recently at Peonn, 111., In which he had much to say In favor of our direct primary law. from that address we quote tno fol lowing: ' t "Whether you want popular selec tion of United States senntors In Ill inois Is for you voters to determine, ' V I wiirn you thnt any half-wny or compromised system whirl) plnces party above the entire peoplo'wlll re sult In dissatisfaction and probnMy corruption. If you wish to destroy the power of the political machine, abolish the convention system en tirely. If you wish to es-liibllHh n popular selection of United Stntes sonators, Inaugurate a system which One Dollar il) "" H .'i savings an-ount and sonny ; l'a lM,.k at the (i HANTS T.SS IS AN K I N( i y Tlil'ST COMPANY. 1 1 takes away from the legislature the right to do more than ratify the act of the people at the general elec tion." The leaders of the republican par ty In Josephine county, of course, will not snbscrlbo to Senator Bourne's opinions. They want the convention system and appear determined to adopt It at all hazards. Some re publicans think that such a course will be unwise, as It may mean the defeat of any candidates who are selected by the convention. It Is generally believed In the rural dis tricts of Oregon that the machine politicians are arrayed against the people and It can be said that the voters of this county will fight any thing that savors of bosslsm. Re publicans, If they want to eloct their candidate, must nominate good men, for no others can go before the peo ple with any chance of success. The same advice enn bo. given to demo crats. It really makes little differ ence what a man's politics may bo If he In honest and capable. Poli tical parties must learn this, and when they do we will have good n pn In office, no matter which party 1? successful. FORGET NOT THE TRULY GREAT. Now that the Roosevelt reception Is over and the country has settled down to Its usual quiet. It may be remarked that Roosevelt Is not the only ex-presldent who has been hon ored abroad and received nt home with loud acclaim by the people, re gardless of party, It must not be forgotten that ex-President U. S. Grant made a tour around the world at the close of his term of office In 1879 and was received everywhere with the highest honor by kings and potentates of the civilized world. When he returned home the Ameri can nation hailed him as its distin guished citizen and extended a wel come such s.a only can come from the loyal heart of his own people. There have been three presidents of the United States who hold a first place In the love and esteem of every American citizen and these are Wash ington, Lincoln and Grant. These men were honored for the great serv ice they rendered their country and their names will be forever em blazoned on the brightest page of history. The country has had many distinguished citizens and the mem ory of these should be cherished, but the three names we have mentioned must stand at the head of the column and be known throughout all time as the leaders among the truly great. DRY FARMING A FAILURE. The dry farming districts In North and South Dakota, Montana, Wyom ing and Colorado and parts of Neb raska and Kansas are literally dried up and grain of all kinds on unlr rlgated lands Is a failure. Dry farm ing Is a fad that will pass all In good time. This method of agricul ture Is all right In a season when there Is plenty of rain. Genuine Ir rigation is the only remedy for the drouth. The farmers of Josephine county should make a note of the failures above mentioned. A num ber of the states have expended large sums In prompting what they choose to call dry farming, but It has failed as It must In every dry season. Congressman Hawley has an nounced that he will be a candidate to succeed himself In this district. His more Intimate friends have long known his Intention and will not be surprised by the anouncement. Other candidates for the same position may show up In the near future. A GOOD ROADS CONVENTION. An effort will be made In the near future by the friends of the good roads movement In Josephine county to hold a convention to discuss the best and most practical method of working to secure good roads. Every body who favors the movement will be requested to turn out and give their assistance on this Important oc casion. The movement will not be mixed up In any manner with politics bufc will be managed In the best In terests of the county. Everybody favors good roads and the best In terests of the community will In the future be closely conected with the Improvement of our highways. The extremes of all parties can afford to unite In this local good roads movement. Men begin to realize that good highways are all important n every community. The merchant, the farmer, the fruit grower, the lumberman and the miner must all unite In this all Important movement. There nre those, of course, who should lead In this great work and from the very nature of things this should be the lumberman. If the Spauldlngs and others largely Inter ested In this trade will lead the way other Interests will quickly follow and do a fair share of the work. Plans for good road construction should be determined before count politics can Interfere, and therefore the convention spoken of should take place In the near future. MARRIED.
