HAS OREGON TH$ HOOKWORM ?
HOOKWORM has recently been discovered in Cnlifoi
nia. Tho pro valance of the pernicious parasite is
found to be wide-spread in tho Golden state. It exists
in tho mines, and among the Porto Rican and Oriental
laborers, mostly engaged in agricultural pursuits. Inves
tigation will probably show it. among tho "Digger"
Indians and Mexicans.

limits were found afflicted, and on account of the daime
ot transmitting the parasite by uncooked vegetables, the
gardens have been quarantined, and tho afflicted are being
treated.
Iu all probability, hookworm is prevalent in Oregon.
It would account for the lotharirv and lazvness that afflicts
so many of our inhabtants. On no other ground can the
state's lack of materal progress bo explained. A larce
clement not only will not work any more than they have
to in order to keep the body and soul together, but oppose
any other persons doing anything.
The hookworm theory 'will account for much of the
neglect of natural resources and prevailing undcvelop
ment. The strange lassitude that has left thousands of
acres untouched and other thousands onlv scratched, that
has resulted in one crop being planted in the same land
for half a century without change because it was easiest,
that makes people travel veal- after vear over impossible
roads Avheu a little labor would make them traversiblc, that
has left our mines undeveloped and our forests untouched,
that has worn the nit of the stale and unprofitable custom
so deep that many cannot, sob nut nf if nil fWn mi m.i.
other of the ills "that afflict is are probably due to the
hookworm.
Oregon doesn't need a quarantine too many people
have already quarantined themselves intellectually but
a little scientific treatment for the eradication of tJie para
sitc might, bring beneficial results to the state.

THIRD TICKET ACTION ? '

By E. L. idcClure.
The progressive party makes un
limited pretensions to honesty and
ability to correct the evils inherent
In tho old political parties, and
promises to destroy the power of
money and monopoly, which has pro
duced poverty and degradation in
the midst of superabundance for all,
in a government supposed to bo
ruled by tho people, the most verlle,
intelligent and industrious, in the
world's history; utilizing tho latest
art in. machinery to multiply the pro
duction of wealth by labor, under
monopolies that vest capital with
power to appropriato all tho profit
and enslave labor by a wage system
moro unjust and tyranlcal than chat
tel slavery.
It exhausts tho cataloguo of evils,
which is the stock in trade of political
demagogues since the beginning of
political government, and like all ot
their kind, promlso everything to get
elected to office, but propose no
remedy that can possibly removo the
cause of the evils.
Prosperity Is tho practical object
and constant concern of every in
dividual, and every citizen realizes
In a vague and Indefinite way, that
prosperity depends upon the admini
stration ot political government; but
tho subtle connection between gov
ernment and prosperity Is so com
pletely hid from popular comprehen
sion by the complicated laws and
customs tf society, that administra
tions shift the blame to other than
political causes.
Roosevelt suspended the law for
tho U. S. Steel Co., In tho panic ot
1907, to steal tho Tcnnesseo Coal &'
Iron Co.; and testified ho would sus
pend tho law again in a liko emer
gency. With all his intelligence and
experience ho remains profoundly ig
norant of tho fact that there Is n
definite and positive remedy that
will make a panic imposslblo and
prosperity perpetual. Boverldgo in
his key-noto oration said "the invis
lblo government behind our vlslblo
government," hut elaborating tho
thought only recognized tho bosses
who feed trora tho "pork barrel" In
stead ot tho invincible, money power
that furnishes tho "pork barrel."
Tho circulation of money Is as
vital to tho body politic as blood to
the Individual, and when money dis
appears from circulation it creates
bankruptcy, starvation and death
throughout tho body politic as inovit
ably as severing tho Jugular voln
kills the Individual. Tho govern
ment has stored in Its vaults gold
coin by the hundreds of (millions, but
has no means of putting it In circula
tion at tho time of a panic. In 1907
the Treasury" Department dopoIted
?50,000,000 without Interest with 3.
P. Morgan, which Morgan loaned to
tho brokors in Wall Street at tho
curro'rit rate ol interest; posing before
Uio public as a hero who saved, by
his generosity, tho country from go
ing into bankruptcy.
TJh.o total supply of gold coin Is a
bagatelle to tho demand obligations
of every country, ntfd the money
kings control tho circulation of
money as positively as steam pres
sure. Watfwlll tljQ Hull Mooso
party do when a panic occurs should
thoy bo elected to office? Roosovolt
emergency whenever It wants to.
If such an Invincible power exists
tho government and pcoplo aro alike
powerless to opposo It, and all tho
pretensions of tho progressive party
are a delusion and a fraud; and tho
same old Invisible power will rule
under the progressives as it has un
der old parties, and tho only differ
ence will bo who shall havo tho offices
and distribute tho spoils; for the cir
culation of money and tho degree
of prosperity Is solely regulated by
financiers in control of tho money
supply.
Scientific money would put in cir
culation a super-abundant supply of
money, and maintain tho money meas
ure a fixed and unchangeablo meas
ure or valuo by tho automatic regu
lation of money supply to equal
monoy demand through interchange-
ability with bonds. Credit would be
as constant ns gravity, becauso sound
credit rests on ability to pay, and
there could bo no disturbance of
credit if money was In reach of
evoryono with wealth to exchango as
positively as weights and measures.
Prosperity would ho perpetual, and
It would be easier to shut out sun
shine from the face of tho earth than
to stop prosperity In a country Ilka
ours whllo tho pcoplo had monoy to
burn.
Tho defect In money is recognized
by all economists, and all assort
that a fixed and unchangeable' money
measure is unattainable becauso all
commodities fluctuate in vnluo with
changes in supply and demand-
scientific money provides tho desid
eratum for a fixed and tinchnngonblo
measure of valuo by eliminating a
commodity ns a standard.
Tho truth uttered by unrocognlzed
authority Is Just as truo as it It
'came from tho highest authority. No
ono can refute the truth and scien
tific money has stood tho test before
tho highest authorities in the United
States.
Tho question la tho greatest of all,
for it will destroy money powor ab
solutely, and monoy would havo no
more Influence in tho affairs ot mon
than bushel baskets, and if tho lead
ers of tho progressive party aro sin
cere In tho battlonfor tho common
good It must adopt scientific money,
rcfuto tt, or thoy desorvo to go down
to oblivion with all tho other doma
gogucs of tho ages.
