Because he means something to the wage-earners. He does not need money for hia political activity. He does not need a job when he gets through at the White House. He does not need any more honors, having had them all. In the eyes of the world he is the greatest American of hia generation. He has never mixed up with the Lorimers, et al. All the rest of the candidates, Republican and Democratic, are chasing the job. Roosevelt makes his own fight straight out for what he wants He calls a spade a spade and a liar a liar. The Capital Journal predicts Roosevelt's nomination and elec tion by overwhelming majorities. , The result will be the greatest victory for progressive politics, for governmental righteousness and democratic institutions ever won. : o SIX GOOD ROADS BILLS. The new good roads committee is asking for six new road bills. The principal bills are for a million state bonds and another for county bonds. Six bills are too many for the people to consider or digest, and the outlook for these bills is not flattering. . But the agitation will be beneficial, and there will be some ed ucation of the people to some end or other. The good roads agitators are slow to learn that some things can not be done here in Oregon, even for good roads. The Capital Journal does not pretend to know it all about good roads, but it knows a few things. It has been at the state capital for nearly a quarter of a cen tury, and has seen many things tried. , For fifteen years gentlemen have come up to Salem with their pockets full of good roads legislation. The Tuttle road law was a sample of many other futile and fallacious, and doomed to failure. There has been unwillingness to do the simpler things, and to do things that are inexpensive. The over-enthusiastic agitator talks of millions of bonds and big salaries and state-built roads. But he has not yet learned to put up a proposition that he can get enacted into a law. , Next he has not learned to draft law that will result in any roads being built. , But the continuous agitation will bear some kind of fruit in the long run. In the meantime Mason and Spence are initiating two grange road bills. o THE OREGON DELEGATION. It is taken for granted that the ten votes of Oregon will be cast for Roosevelt. When Roosevelt is the nominee the organization should be in the hands of his friends. If Taft is nominated, Taft men should run the campaign. The national committeemen from Oregon must be in perfect accord with the nominee. The mnchine could not be trusted to enthuse over a progres sive candidate. A reactionary nominee for president would not want a pro gressive chairman. There are politicians who will take political instructions in opposition to their principles. There are men so hungry for honors they will taken them on any terms. , . That day should some time belong to the past, and principle should count.

Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTOR l A REAL ESTATE BULLETIN HAS A PLAN FOR PARCELS TOST. THAT SEEMS TO BE FAIR TO ALL AND GITES AMPLE PROTECTION TO LOCAL MERCHANTS. Washington, May 6. Senator Bourne's parcel post bill, Introduced a few days ago, Is designed to give the people of tho United States as low a merchandise rate as the actual cost of the service will permit and to base the charge upon the service rendered. His bill Includes what Is called a 'zone" system; with rates varying ac cording to distance. This plan gives the advantage to the local merchant, and yet provides much lower rates for long hauls than the rates now in force. For example the present rate on merchandise Is one cent an ounce, or 16 cnts a pound, regardless of dis tance. This Is an absolutely unscien tific rate. It now costs a resident of a rural route 16 cents a pound to have merchandise mailed to him from his local market, and the limit Is four pounds, which would cost 64 cents. Under the Bourne bill the rural route rate Is Ave cents for the first pound and once cent for each additional pound, or 15 cents for 11 pounds, this weight being the limit. But the Bourne Bill will not be as favorable to mall order houses as lo cal merchants have feared. The pro posed rate for a distance such as that from Chicago or Kansas City to Oregon is 12 cents for the first pound and 10 cents for each additional pound or $1.12 for 11 pounds. The present charge for 11 pounds made up In four-pound packages would be $1.70, so that there Is a reduction of 64 cents and yet the local merchant has a rate of 15 cents as compared with $1.12 charged on the package from Chicago. This difference of 97 cents because of the' greater distance, Is believed to be ample protection to the local merchant and fully Justified by the cost to the government. Senator Bou.i hag always assert ed that retail merchants are not in jured by mall shipments, but freight shipments and that mall rates can never compete with freight rates. The freight charge on merchandise from Chicago to Oregon Is $3 or less 'per hundred, or 3 cents a pound. The parcel post rate is over 11 cents a pound for the same distance. Hence It Is claimed by Senator Bourne that the great bulk of goods ordered by mall will always be shipped by freight and that the amount of goods shipped by mall long distances will not ma torlally Injure local merchants. His bill, however, gives low rates for short distances. Thus, for the first zone, with a radius of about 50 miles, the rates Is 6 cents for the first pound and 2 cents for each ad ditional pound or 26 cents for 11 pounds, or about 2 cents a pound. Statistics show that more than half the pnekago business comes within a distance of 200 miles, for which dis tance the Bourne bill provides a charge of 7 cents for the first pound and three cents for each additional pound or 37 cents for nn 11-pound parcel. These short distance rates are much lower than express rates now In force. Many peoplo ask why 11 pounds Is fixed upon as the limit and the ex planation Is that the International parcel post limit Is five kilograms, or approximately 11 pounds.

THE OPEN FORUM :: The Capital Journal Incites pub- '.

Journal: In the summer of 1899 as Col. Roosevelt was returning from the Rough Riders' re-union In Oklahoma, via Santa Fe, accompanied by Black, of that road, he, as vice president was wont to exude great drops of perspiration, and little ex temporaneous political speeches from the rear platform at each station. The stop, at Harper, Kansas, was marked by a little incident that clear ly portrays the real character of a truly great man. Upon arrival, the car was at once surrounded by a throng of voters, on the outskirts of which could be seen a little six-year- old girl with a huge sunflower, the face of which quite out-sized her own. In vain she repeatedly endeav ored to reach the big man enveloped in a broad grin, dark trousers and a bold pink and white striped shirt, who by this time hod turned on full political speed. Seeing the efforts of the child, he stopped abruptly. "Stand aside, gentlemen, and make way for that little girl with the big sunflower," at which the mnster cer emonies kindly offered to relieve her, and reach It to the coming president. "No, no," said Roosevelt, "stnnd aside and allow the lltle girl to present It herself" which she did, with a face all aglow at her success. And the effort was rewarded by that "delight ed," followed by a sort of benediction on little Cecil Stewart, who now lies out In the cemetery. However, she lived to see the recipient of her huge state flower president of this great nation, and derived much childish pleasure in telling of her acquaint ance with the Illustrious Roosevelt.

Few Women Know the Dangers of Constipation That Constipation, Neglected, Opens the Gateway to ALL HUMAN ILLS let iiouisier s nutu ; Ouicltly Relieves Constipation. t Stop up, for an extended period, one of the natural outlets aewors ol the body, and the consequence are always serious often danger ous. Waste matter retained in the bowels, producei poisons and dis ease germs which contaminate and pollute the entire system in time spreading weakness and disease to very organ. A chronic costive condition pro duces impure blood, dizziness, head aches, backache, nervous maladies, piles, inflammation and ulceration of the bowels-even the dreaded appendicitis. Surely no sufferer from constipation can afford to de lay a single hour in correcting such a dangerous condition. But neither can one afford to take any drastic purgative or cathartic. Anything which acts violently upon the bowels must do more barm than good because it weakens the bowel muscles,intimeabsolufelyincapacitating them. One dose may force a passage, but next day, or the day following, you are again constipated and you must gradually increase the dose to secure the desired result.

Some of the commonest charges against them are drunkeness, rioting nnd violence, yet in their meetings, held from time to time at Ryan's Hall, there hns been an organized band of workers, to prevent members from en tering snloons. They have dlsiclnmcd all violence nnd misconduct, nnd steadily Btrlve to impress upon ench other the Idea of peaceful solidarity. Honest now did you ever hear of a more peaceable strike?
