The Independent candidate has nothing to say about the power of the people to take over privately op erated power sites at any time, nor has he given any insight Into what he would do about the power situa tion if elected governor. Mr. Met schan declared in favor of federal development of the Columbia river, including the Umatilla Rapids pro ject, as only through federal sup port can such projects ever be put across. That nothing would be be gained toward putting such pro jects across in Oregon with defying the republican administration at slowly improving following a ser- Washington by electing independent ious illness.

Though tne law gives una right to the people at the present time, the recapture clause in the leBse would be a good feature, he believes. Large Expenditures Cited Why is the independent candidate spending, or why is there being spent for him, such immense sums of money, the like of which has never before been seen in the his tory of the United States? In ask ing the question Mr. Metschan de clared that Vare of Pennsylvania was a piker, for, comparing the number of voters to be reached, the independent candidate in Oregon has far exceeded .him. Four thous and dollars would not pay the post age bill alone for one mailing of literature to all the voters ot tne state, to say nothing of the lapel buttons, car bumper signs, and stacks of multi-color printed matter evidence everywhere, besides hours here taking some of the local EARLY DAYS IN people lor joy riaes. j Mrs. Percy Bleakman and son Norman spent the week-end visit ing friends here.

Such high-powered boys as Bone and Harlan are not working for nothing. And why are these men, who have fattened off of public ownership for years, working so hard for the independent candi date? In a year's time Expert Har lan has collected more money from the city of Portland than the gov ernor's salary would amount to for ten years, Mr. Metschan declared, and did not deliver a penny's worth for it Campaign is Gaining In commenting on his reception over the state, Mr. metscnan saia he has made friends in every place visited, and with the rapid forma tion of Metschan - for - Governor clubs his campaign is gaining great impetus. He feels he is giving the people a message they should know, and without expression of personal animus in regard to the campaign of villiflcation being waged against him, he is ready after a full hearing to let the matter rest in the hands of the electorate.

In some man ner the pilot lost his directions and landed here. He spent about three MRS. THOMAS ESTES I gradually fell off in weight from 135 down to 62 pounds and was nothing but skin and bones. 'I had no appetite and the little food I did eat just had to be forced down; then I would suffer agony from it with griping pains m the pit of my stomach, in my right side and in the small of my back. My heart would get so weak and would flutter so fast at times it would frighten me. I would have terrible smother ing spells and would have to gasp for breath. "My circulation was bad. J would feel chilly at times, and again great beads of sweat would stand out over my forehead, and I would get blind and dizzy too. "Yes, I suffered from chronic con stipation for years and also had a very bad, inactive liver. Often times I had bilious attacks which would make me deathly ill. During the past five years I don't believe I had a single night of good restful sleep. My nervous system was sure ly a wreck. I couldn t stand for strangers or even neighbors to come into my house. Nothing in the way of medicines or treatments ever did me any good. In fact, my condition was so bad none of my neighbors thought I would ever get well. 'Finally I decided to try Sargon. I've taken 15 bottles of Sargon and about 7 bottles of the Pills. Well, it just acted like a miracle in my case. I actually gained 63 pounds in weight. As I said before, I only weighed 62 pounds when I started on it and now I weigh 125 pounds and feel just like a woman made all over again. I have regained all my strength and energy and am do ine all my house work. I can hard ly wait from one meal to another. "The Sargon Pills have cured me of bilious attacks and constipation. They are so wonderful I now feel like I would like to tell the whole world about Sargon and the Pills. My friends and neighbors are all talking about my wonderful recov ery and I will praise Sargon as long as I live. I believe it has saved my life." The above remarkable statement was made recently by Mrs. Thomas Estes, 68 Georgia Ave., Atlanta, Ga. Patterson & Son, druggists, local agents. (Adv.) teeth with the young hotel manager, who found It necessary to stretch his credit in order to operate. Sev eral days elapsed without any offer of aid from Mr. Fisher, and believ ing that the gentleman should re lieve the financial stringency, as the drain of his party upon the ho tel resources was very telling, Mr. Metschan approached him. "I only beat you to town three days and I haven't any money, and would like to keep my credit good," Mr. Metschan told him. To which Mr. Fisher replied, "I haven't any money either." That's the way matters stood. As soon as the young lady was on her feet again, Mr. Metschan assisted Mr. Fisher in advertising and stag ing his snow, "East Lynn." The proceeds amounted to $60, all but $3 of which Mr. Fisher gave to Mr. Metschan, who reluctantly accepted so large a portion. Mr. Fisher in sisted that the three dollars would get them to lone, where they went and from where Mr. Metschan re ceived a further sum from Mr. Fish er. The bill was finally paid through dribbles over several years time, the speaker said, and Joe Fisher had become his very good friend. Miss Marguerita Fisher, the girl who was carried into the hotel on a cot, later Decame famous as a movie actress. Another more humorous event related by Mr. Metschan concerned one Charles Stoneman. Mr. Stone- man, who had been about the hotel for some time and had become ob ligated to Mr. Metschan, one day approached him on the subject of fishing. "Where's a good place to fish?" he asked. Thinking to have a little fun at Mr. Stoneman's ex p e n s e, Mr. Metschan replied, There's the best little fishing stream you ever saw just over the hill to the north in Blackhorse." Mr. Stoneman took his tackle and struck out, and apparently not being over joyed with angling possibilities af forded by the waterless region, he never showed up at the hotel again. Mr. Metschan never saw Stoneman again until a few days following his nomination for governor. One day a man walked Into his Portland hotel. You don t remember me, do you?" Mr. Metschan admitted that he didn't "I'm the man you sent nsning in Blackhorse, and now s my chance to get even." Mr. Metschan's attitude was plain ly unassuming as he called his old time friends by their first names. and a. smile of pure joy played around his determined mouth, though weariness from his stren uous campaign was evident. There were no spontaneous bursts of ap plause engendered by a play upon the feelings of his audience, but a sense of sympathetic understanding such as might be expected at a fam ily reunion, thoroughly borne out by the many who lingered after the meeting that they might longer re live together the eventful early days that had so large a part in building the Heppner of today, and to per sonally offer their support to Mr. Metschan. Mr. Metschan recalled other friends still residing here, not at the meeting, whom he wag sorry not to have seen.
