Hi communications should be addressed to PRKS8 Athena, Oregon ATHENA, APRIL 22, 1904 A fair sample of the method of boom, ing Hearst for the presidential nomina tion is reported in the papers as having y transpired at the democratic state con vention in Portland Tuesday. A num ber of Hearst adherents from California were present, and spoiled among the delegates in favor of the yellow journal ist. They wanted the delegation to the St. Louis convention instructed for Hearst, but fajled in their purpose. When the motion to instruct the Oregon delegation to support Hearst was pre sented, it met with a quick and just de: feat. It was voted down, 151 to 115. Thus the democracy of Oregon puts its seal of disapproval on allowing Mr. Bryan a life franchise as dictator of platform and policy, by promptly turn ing down his man, Friday. Attorney General Knox was so fearful of giving the trust magnates of Wall street offense by his suit againBt the railway merger that he lost no. time in giving assurance that the "administra tion would not run amuck against the trusts." At conferences held at the White House President Roosevelt Las assured the attorneys and agents of Rockefeller, Morgan et ul that there would be no more suits brought ugainBt the trusts this , year. Probably the promise goes even further than that. Sometimes a measly little type may creep in where it his no business and, 'managing with characteristic deviltry to elude the keen eye of the indefatigable proofreader, cause a greater sensation than the yellowest scare-head in the whole sheet. For example, witness the insignificant little period just a mere dot, a fly-speck that in last Tuesday's edition of the Press brought down the price of the Methodists' magnificent new organ to the paltry sum of $4,501 The county commissioners have ad dressed a letter to all the ex-county and present officials, whom Clark & Buch anan, the experts, allege to have found shortage in their accounts while serving in official positions in Walla Walla. They are notified of the alleged amount of the discrepancies and they are re quested to verify the report and if found correct to settle with the county. The direct primary law will be placed on the ballot to be cast on June fith, und every voter should get a copy of the law and study it for yourself in order that you may be fully qualified how to vote. The bill is at your disposal, and there is no'reason why you should go to the pules unqualified to cast an intelli gent vote on this subject. , The grain farmers of the bunch-grass counties expect this year the largest grain crop in the history of the settle ment of eastern Oregon. While the the rainy spring haa interfered with the spring sown crop, yet as a whole, the crop is reported much in advance of what it generally is at this season of the year. King Menelik has a glorious future before him. He will bring to the St. Louis exposition some ivory, tropical fruits and the like and take back the Cakewalk, the ragtime song, the 'possum and the persimmon. Greater than all, though, would be a phonographic record of one of Wood's speeches. A big gun that is being cast at Read ing, Pa., is to- have a range of thirty milt'R. It may yet come to pass that a shot amy not ouly be heard around the world but fired around aa well. United States Senator Burton, of Kansas, has been found guilty of bribery and sentenced to six months in jail and to pay a fine of $2500. It would appear from the charges against Senator Burton thet he was out for coin, and coin only, and is now getting his re ward. Marquis Ito has been presented with a house in the .Korean capital. After looking at pictures of a few Korean houses we are not disposed to believe that Ito has much to brag about. Athena is setting the pace in street making for other towns in the North west to follow. And it will be noted that other towns are' agitating street improvement. It has been decided that Washington will have a baseball club this season. All doubt ( concerning the team that will be at the tail end is, therefore, removed. College athletes are wanted in St. Louis by the company that has tlw roller chair concession. This looks like a great chance for pushing young men. A Great Sensation. There was a big sensation in. Lees vine, Ind., when W. H. Brown, of that place, who was expected to die, had his life saved by Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption. He writes: ,"I en dured insufferable agonies from Asthma, but your New Discovery gave me im mediate relief, and soon thereafter effected a complete cure." Similar cures of consumption, pneumonia, bron chitis and grip are numerous. It's the peerless remedy for all throat and lung troubles. Price, 50c. and $1. Guaran teed by A. B. Stone, druggist.
