There Is it whole olumt in this sentence. A city or town without one or more live newspaper- Is not worth the space It oeeupltM A newspaper, rightly conducted, N worth in-jro to a town orcommtiuiiy than thoui.mds of dollars Invodol in nnv other enterprise. It Is now more than thirty years since Dr. L-iudiirmbllcn called atten tion In the medical Journals to the great value of green or unroiiMod codec In hepatic and nephritic dis eases. After having continued tt use the reineily for upward of a third of a century in many hundreds of cases, hu fiiruln appeals to the pro fc-tsion, to give it u trial In those ease of liver and kidney troubles which have remitted all other treat . incnt. Tin: bill couipclllug railroads to ftqnlp freight cars with auloinatlc couplers pis-ted ly the Now York legist dure lust winter has been ap proved by the governor. It provides that lifter Nov. 1, 18IL, all steam rail roads shall equip all of their own engines and fielght cars with "such automatic self-couplers," and that It shall bu unlawful after that date to run any of their own cars not thus equipped, except in emergencies. In special eases the lallroad commis sioners liny extend tho time one year. The penalty for nou-compll-unci) is $500 for each oH'cnsc. A wnrrr.u In (ho North China Herald of Shanghai, referring to tho Chinese claims to have originated many modern Western sclentllle In ventions, says that Chinese patriot-1 l,u Htieivfully reached, and this was election for state treasurer on Au gust 6. Elections in ten other states will take placo November 6. On that day Iowa will elect gov cmor and lieutenant governor. Maryland will elect comptioller and attorney general. Massachuscts will elect governor and state officers. Mississippi will elect governor and stat officers. Nebraska will elect a supreme court Judge nnd two regents. Now Jersey will elect governor and state olllcers. New York will elect state officers, except governor and lieutenant gov ernor. Ohio will elect governor and stnto ofJlcers. l'en-yiynnla will elect state treas urer. Virginia will elect governor nnd state olllcers. Political Interest this year accord ingly is centered in the elections of the newly admitted states, North Dultotn, South Dakota, Washing Ion and Montana, which are now framing their constitutions and will elect full state governments and leg Islatuies, which will choo'-e eight United State senators. Each new state will also elect n representative in eongres", except South Dakota, which will elect two. The terms of the United States senators expire next year, so tho election of members of the legisla ture Is of interest as bearing on na tional polities only In cases where members of the legislature chosen this year hold ofllco for two years. .MAD hTONKS ACJAIN. Wo have several times mentioned mad stones in this paper. Perhaps tho history of one owned In Mls-is-slppi is as well attested as that of any other. It was, and doubtless still Is, owned In the family of a Col. Milam of Waterford, Miss. Its sl.e Is about that of an average hen eg.r and it was obtained from China about eighty years ago, or in the year 1810. Some seventy years ago It was accidentally broken into three pieces, which weie skilfully fasten ed together by a who. Twenty years ago Its owner then declared that It hail been applied over one thousand times in cases bitten by venomous snakes or mail dogs. He himself had then applied it over two hundred and fifty times.

Professor Eiitel then stated that the tunc had been taken to Europe from Africa in the eleventh century by the Crusaders, and had lived separately in both countries for over 700 years. Tills is certainly enuugh to make "We Won't Go Home Till Morning" a classic. Its origin is more of a mystery than the source of tho Nile. Uncle Sam's Dishonesty. For seventeen years after the es tablishment of tho money-order sys tem In this country the funds se cured through unpaid money orders were stored up and hoarded, just as thougli the United States Govern ment had made a good speculation. No attempts whatever were inaugur ated to ascertain the real owners of this money which had been trusted to Uncle Sam's care, but the sum went on accumulating until it had reached the enormous figure of about $1,700,000. Then Congress took hold. The legislative branch of the government decided that the money thus held was Illegally held, and that no pnlns should be spared to ascertain to whom it belonged, and a clause was attached to one of the bills appropriating money for the support of the postolllee department authorizing the employment of a number of clerks, whose duty It should bo to ascertain the rightful owners of this money-order fund, and every eflbrt made to restore it. Congress also provides that hereafter whenever an "advice" in relation to an order, which should remain un paid In the hands of u postmaster a a certain number of days without the money having been claimed, was received, it should be the duty of thopostmaster to notify the payee. If this failed to secure the the pay ment of the money to the rightful party, the sender was to he notified and steps were devised by which he might secure tho money which had not been paid to tho person to whom he desired It should go.

Thev have at this time fifteen teams employed and the contemplated improvements have scarcely begun. It is intended to make the drive leading from Commercial street through Riverside and High land additions and around Highland Park THE FINEST DRIVE IN THE STATE Of Oregon. The line of the Salem Street Railway Company runs through the middle of this addition, and no lots will be more than two blocks distant from tho line. Highland Park will in the near future be THE MOST POPULAR RESORT ABOUT THE CITY OF SALEM. Lois in Highland Additon are lligli and Dry and. Well Located; Most Excellent Drainage The soil is black and rich. From all points n fine view is obtained of the public buildings and our highest mountain peaks. Arrangements arc already being made for the location of two churches in this addition, and a numberof residences are soon to be built. Buildings only of the best class will be permitted. Residence lots within the limits of the city of Salem are worth on nn average over $1000. We can sell you better lots in High land addition for one-third of the money, and being directly on the line of the street railway they are practi cally not half so far from the public, buildings and the business part of the town as the majority of the so called "inside lots." Buy a Lot in Highland Addition for Three Hundred Dollars, And let some other fellow pay 1000 for an inferior lot not so well located. With the difference of 700 you can build a beautiful cottage, or put it out at a rate of interest that will buy you nearly two thousand streetcar tickets every year.
