Is a wonderful medical discovery. Af

and having treated many hundred cases
of catarrh and other throat and lung
diseases, Dr. Cooper discovered the med
icine called the "Nine Cs."
The "Nine Cs" will cure any curable
case of Catarrh, Asthma or Consump
tion that has not passed to the lait
stages. It is a great remedy for hoarse
ness of public shakers. It is a sure
remedy f r croup and a great benefit in
whooping cough.
The remedy is pleasant to use, even
for children, and it sold by the drug
gists in Hood River, under a guarantee
to benefit the patient or the money re
funded. This medicine was formerly
manufactuied in Villisca, Iowa, but will
now lie manufactured in Hood River. -DR.

SOME INFORMATION
ABOUT ELECTION LAWS
A general election will be held on
June 4, 1906, to elect the following
otlloers : Governor. Secretary of State.
State Treasurer, Superintendent of
fublio instruction, Attornoy uenorai,
State Printer, Representative in U. S.
Congress, representative in state
Legislatuer Sheriff, County Clerk, and
County Commissioner.
A primary election will take place
on April 20, 1900, for the purpose of
nominating candidates for the oillcos
to be filled at the ensuing general
election ;
2. Selecting candidates for United
States Senator ;
3. Selecting delegates to conven
tions to be held :
1. Electing committeemen for each
election precinct. Each committee
man thus elected is to be tbe repre
sentative of bis politioal party in tnd
for suoh precinct, and these commit
teemen will constitute the county
oentral committee of each of said po
litical parties.
The direct primary nominating
elections law provides that all politis
oal parties shall hold their primarle
at the same time and place and it hIho
designates that this work shall be
fairly, freely aud honestly conducted.
It is as necessary for the preservation
of the public welfare and safety that
there should be a free and fair vote by
secret ballot and honest count at pri
mary elections as at general elections.
Members of every politioal party and
voluntary political organiaztlou are
rightfully entitled to know that every
person who offers to take purt in the
affairs of suc r r.i ty or organization
in tbe state i, in good fuith a mem tier
of that party. This is provided for in
Section 15, which reads as follows:
"No person who is not a qualified
elector and a registered member of a
party making its nominations under
the provisions of this law shall be
qualilled to join iu signing any peti
tion for nomination cr to vote at said
primary nomination eloctlon, aud no
person snail te quailtied to sign any
nominating petition ot any other po
litical party than thut with which he
is registered as a member, but this
shall not be construed to prevent any
registered member of any party from
signing a puitiou for the nomination
of any Independent or non-partisan
candidate, uor shall it beoouutrued to
prevent any qualified elector from
signing petitions for more than one
candidate for the same office on one
party ticket. "
While all electors are at liberty to
vote as they please at the general
election it w ill be seen thut the party
lines are closely drawn in making the
nominations. To take any part in tbe
latter tbe voter must be reglsteied
with some political organization.
The registration books were opened
on January 2, and close for the pri
mary election on April 10, The regis
tration books open again on April 25,
