CAPTURE
So long as S. A. D. Puter remained
sX large, says the Telegram, no matter
hat the Government might accom
plish in other respects, there could be
no fit climax to the Land Department
prosecution. While it Is true that
Puter gained immunity for services

rendered the proscutlon, it is equally
true that he was the cleverest and
most unregenerate of all the persons
with which the Government had any
thing to do. Indeed, in the very midst
of the trials he was already at work in
fresh criminal operations, from vhich
the state was barely rescued, to be
followed by even more daring depre
dations, which defrauded capable busi
ness men of thousands upon thousands
of dollars.
The good faith of the Government
was not only involved in the apprehen
sion of Puter, but also in his stern and
determined prosecution. If all that ap
pears about him is true, and very much
of it undoubtedly is, there is only one
proper place for Puter, and the law
carfully prescribes what it is.
CO WOMEN VANT TO VOTE
If the women of Oregon themselves
wanted to vote there might be some
excuse for giving them the right. But,
apparently, the women do not , want
this privelege and pay little attention
to the glowing speeches made by
woman suffragists imported from other
states.
That this is so plainly proved by
many recent occurences, and the man
must be tlind indeed who does net
recognize them.
It is not neccessary to' dwell on the
fact that an association of women with
headquarters in Portland and branches
all over the state, have sent out circu
lar letters asking the men cf Oregon
not to mistake the clamor' of female
agitators from distant states for the
sentiment of the women of Oregon.
A more striking and convincing proof
that the women themselves do riot
want the burden of the ballot forced, up
on them is found in a recent debate
which took place in the largest church
in Portland. tAt this debate tvo
preachers, the Rev, J. Whitcomb
Brougher and the Rev. Clarence True
Wilson, took opposite sides on the
woman suffrage questton. The audi
ence was composed, by actual count,
of 400 women and about 40 men. At
the close of the debate a vote was
taken on the question of woman suf
frage and the result stood 176 against
and only 173 for it.
When it is considered that the suf
fragists had got out their crowd, that
there were very few men in the audi
ence, and that many of these refused
to vote, the result of the balloting is
most significant.
Why should the burden and duties
of the ballot be forced upon the women
of this state against their wishes?
Sciatica Cured After Twenty Years of
Torture.
For more than twenty years Mr. J.
B. Massey, of 3322 Clinton St.,
Minneapolis, Minn., was tortured by
Sciatica. The pain and suffering
which he endured during this time is
beyond comprehesion. Nothing gave
him any permanent relief nutil he used
Chamberlain's Pain Balm. One ap
plication of that liniment relieved the
pain and made sleep and rest possible,
and less than one bottle has effected a
permanent cure. If troubled with
sciatica or rheumatism why not try a
25-cent bottle of Pain Palm and see
for yourself how quickly It relieves the
pain. For sale by W. P McMillan.
If a girl wishes to get old quick let
her marry.

volving the removal of a malignant ul
cer, as laage as my hand, from my
daughter's hip, was prevented by the

"Persistent use of the Salve complete
