One of the things that should be
sworn off by the entire country in
this time of new resolutions is the
Sampson-Schley controversy. Not
even the late Christmas festivities
alluding to peace and good will, have
been able to overshadow the tense
interest taken by public and private
individuals alike in the case. The
bitterness of the feud has already re
suited in making enemies of former
friends; has given other nations a
bad opinion of our navy: has brought
upon the lieutenant general of the
army a public reprimand from the
president; is being fanned into a po-
litical flame in the halls of congress,
and may cause a change in the eabi-
net and a libel suit in the civil
courts. Certainly the president was
right when he declared that army
and navy men must stop talking
about it.
The disposition seems to lie to
come west for new cabinet officials,
another straw which shows l’resi
dent Roosevelt’s grasp of the ini
mensity of the nation over which lie
presides, and the justness of giving
Al.I. tiie peopi . e a chance. The Re
porter has ¡1 thoroughly original idea
in this connection. It is that when
the new bureau of commerce is or
ganized, an Oregon man be chosen
to the secretaryship. This state has
never had representation in the
president's cabinet but once, and
that was when Hon. Geo. II Will
iams was attorney general for Grant.
To show the appropriateness of such
an appointment we need oniv men
tion Oregon's close relationship to
the opening trade with the orient
and our new insular possessions.
We will go a step farther, and stig
gest a man.for the place. His name
is H. R. Lewis, who has already
made two or more trips to the i’liil
lipines in the interest of the Port
land Chamber of Commerce, and
who thoroughly knows the ’ lav of
the land." We do not personally
know Mr, Lewis, but believe lie
would fill the bill better than any

C. H. Markham, late general
freight and passenger agent of the

At a recent meeting of livestock
men in Chicago one of the orators
declared that the man who eats beef
rules the world; that no one exerts
his full energies unless he has beef
steak for breakfast. We are told
the speech was greeted with ap
plause. Evidently the pork packers
were not invited to the meeting.
H. Hirschberg, the Independence
banker and capitalist, proposes to
bore an oil well on his own land near
Monmouth. He does not propose to
sell any stock nor ask for any money
from anybody. There arc very fa
vorable indications of the existence
of oil in that neighborhood, and if
the enterprising banker finds it he
will make all his neighbors rich. He
is himself already well enough off to
afford the experiment, no matter
what the result.
When congress meets after the
holidays there will be much heard
regarding the construction of the
proposed Isthmian canal.
Before
the holiday adjournment the house
of representatives adopted a rule
providing for the taking up of the
Hepburn Nicaraguan canal bill on
January 7th, and for its continuous
consideration until disposed of.
At
present two Nicaraguan bills
pending, the Hepburn bill in
house and the Morgan bill in
senate. The principal difference be
tween them is that the Morgan bill
provides that the work shall be done
by a commission, while the Hepburn
bill places all disbursements in the
hands of the president and contem
plates that the work shall be done
through army engineers or in such
other manner as the president shall
direct.
The eye is the only organ of the body
that is completely controlled by the
brain; therefore, if there is any imperfec
tion in the refraction of the eye, the
brain must necessarily be on constant
strain to compel perfect vision through
an imperfect eye. This may affect the
brain, causing what is called asthenopia
or chronic sick headache.
This con
stant effort on the part of the brain takes
brain strength, and in orilyr to renew
its strength the brain draws on the
nervous system for new material with
which to replace the lost power neces
sarily used to compel perfect vision.
Now if the nervous system is perfectly
balanced it will suiter as a whole, and
the person with such a strain is liable

point, because of lack of power to
tect itself, will he robbed more than

trouble at that point. If it is the brun
chial nerves and muscles it will be ii ron-
chial disease; or it may be any other
disease that comes from lack of strength
in any of the nervous centers. This is
no longer a matter of conjecture, for
thousands of cures are being made
through wearing scientifically fitted
glasses, thereby stopping the loss to the
nervous system
Dr. C. W. Roberts,
the eye specialist, comes with the most
convincing testimonials as to his ability
not only from his home city but from
nearly every town and city he has prac
ticed in. He proves his theory that
many seemingly incurable nerve troubles
and headaches are brought about through
constant strain to get perfect vision
through an imperfect eye, by reference
to his patients who have been cured of
serious diseases, supposed by all, except
the most advanced in the science of
optholmology, to have no connection
with the eye. It is well worth your
while to call and have a talk with the
doctor
If you are interested, call even
though your eyes are perfect. He is an
interesting talker. Dr. Roberts is to be

hill till Jan. 13. Examination and con
