evenings IVrt!and Tlegarri published
the following statement regarding that

has Just returned frem a trip there, an
excursion which has opened his eyes to
the possibilities of that country, .In

I visited that country I was of the
opinion that the bar was shallow, but
find they have 24 feet of water at low
tide. It makes one of the best harbors
on the coast. Thefe are now five
Hhooners on the ways which will cost
170.000 apiece. These schooners are 275
feet in length, and. will carry four
masts. I presume they are intended
for the lumber and coal tradev i :

,.: It! Is to be presumed that one of the
excuses for the recommendation of the
Inspector was the fact that starting at
this hcur will enable' the'carrlers ti
take out the mall; thart comes oa the
train at 11 o'clock from, the North. But
that train carries only the local mail.
This amounts to but very little. '
: Some of the carriers-now do not fin

their home-coming -when: they must
wait until noon before making the start

WARDEN JANES HOME
HH BELIEVES TILVT TRACY WILL
YET BH APPREHENDED IN
. WASHINGTON.
Warden 3. T. Janes? of the Penlten
tiary. returned on Sunday evening from
his triD to Puget Sound, whither he
went in response to a .request of the
officers who are searching for Tracy.
Mr. Janes reports that the officers.
Sheriffs Cudiuee arid W"-.-
Seattle and Tacoma, respectively, are
still working on the case, and that
something of more irnportnce wiU oc
cur soon. He 1s hopeful of ccea

Governor T. T. Geer and Mrs. Geer,
who Joined the Maaarnaa recently on
the trip to and ascent of lit. ACams. la
Washington, have ret urn and th?y
f.rs dciightcdi with Ihcir cxpcrHnce.
The Governor's lips arc sore and i his
face badly un-bumedss a result of
the trip, and the high altitude attained
where the winds and the sun worked
their Vengeance on the Executive pf
Oregon- . . -; - ' ; . .
The Governor stated last night that
it had been planned ' to ascend Mt.
Adams on last Saturday, but on ac
count of the failure of the :ack train
to arrive on time that was made im
possible. A small party did ascend the
mountain on Saturday, and on Sunday
another party made the climb, but the
official trip was made on Monday, the
officers of the Maxamas being reluct
ant to make the triD on Sunday ..and
bold the annual meeting on the summit
on that date. ..The party went up early
Monday; morning, and on reaching the
summit found a high and extremely
disagreeable and cold wind, a regular
hurricane, raging, and the stay made
was not as comfortable as might have
been. ; The Governor and ; Mrs, Geer,
however, did not go as .fast as : the
main party, and therefore reached the
summit later-at 3 p. nu. At that time
the wind had subsided and It was
really pleasant, and as.lt was a mag
nificent view fr&m the summit of the
peak, the : stay there was much en
joyed. ... .' , '
Governor Geer says the climb is much
harder than that of Mt. Hood, ami the
mountain Is fully 1.C00 feet higher, but
It is not nearly as dnugeroun, and is
an experience well worth the effort and
hardships. . .s '. .:;..
Asked about his action in connec
tion with the claim of. Mrs., -Mary
Waggoner, of Chehalis, forthe reward
for the finding of the body of Merrill,
the Governor said that "he T was not

Electricity Is life. Lack of electri
city Is death. Electricity constitutes
the chief element of the vital force of
the brain and body. In this era of
haste and wate a large proportion of
deaths are caused by heart failure,, or
a slow electrical state..- Sickness Indi
cates that the body Is lacking In fa
tality or electricity, and the proper
and natural remedy, therefore. Is to
supply the deficiency.
The wonderful recuperative , powers
of electricity are clarly. shown In the
fact; that when persons are at a stage
where life has hearty gone, as in cases
of drowning, poisoning, etc, electricity
is applied as . the surest and most
powerful remedy. - It succeeds where
all' else fails.. Dn Darrin has effelted
some marveious"' cures by means of
this wonderful forces; The following
list of thise whom he has cured years
