A groat nowspnper published in tho city of Portland has said that if Ynqulna Bny harbor was CO feet deep It would bo of no uso to commonco, as It was noth ing but a frog pond Insido, and thnt thoro was no room for vessels to dock. YAQUINA BAY IS NAVIOABLE FOR RIVER STEAMERS 8U0H AS EUN ON THE COLUMBIA AND WILLAMETTE EIVEBS FOB A DB3 TANOE OP 24 MILES, AND TOE A DISTANCE OP 0 MILES UP FBOM TIIE HAEBOE THE OHANNBL IS DEEP ENOUQH TO FLOAT ANY VESSEL THAT EVEE ENTERED POETLAND HAEBOE, AND TIES CHANNEL POE THAT DISTANCE IS SEVEEAL HUNDEED FEET WIDER THAN THE WILLAMETTE EIVEE IS AT POETLAND. Tho government has expended In nil a littlo over $000,000.00 in tho improve ment of Yaquina Bny, and as a result thereof tho bar has been deepened from 14 to 22 feet. When wo consid er tho fact that there is only 28 feet of water at tho mouth of tho Co lumbia river and that in order to maintain this depth tho government spends annually about a million dollars, and the port of Portland another mil lion to keep tho sand bars dredgod out of tho Columbia river between Port land and tho soa, wo think that all fair minded mon will ngrco that tho sum of $1,000,000.00, as recommonded by tho board of cnglncors to mnko a permanent 30 foot channel over tho Yaqulna bar would bo a paltry sum as compared with tho savings to tho farm ers and manufacturers of tho Wll lamctto valloy and coast countios trib utary to that harbor. Enemies of Ya quina Bay urgo as an excuso that thoro is not now sufficient commqreo to justify tho oxpendituro of any more government money on this harbor at tho present time, Tho same excuse could havo been urged against tho im provement of tho Columbia river. Tho snmo excuso was urgod against tho opening of tho uppor Columbia rlvor to tho commorco of thcfnland empire To day wo aro celobrating tho ono hun dredth anniversary of tho coming of Lewis and Clark. Ono huudrcd years ago tho Indians in thoir littlo bark canoes handled all tho commorco of tho Northwest. Fifty years ago tho pio neers of tho Willamette Valloy wcro still using canoes for tho transporta tion of their products. It is less than three decades since tho first railroad was built and operated in this state. Oregon is big enough, long enough, and wldo enough, long enough and wldo wide enough to havo more than ono har bor; more than ono city; moro than ono nowspapcr, moro than ono political boss. To illustrate and show tho dif ference in freights to tho farmers of tho Willamette valloy, by way of Portland nnd tho sea, and tho Yaqulna bay, wero it a deep water harbor, wo aro informed that the average tow ago od a ship from tho high soa at the mouth of tho Columbia river to Port land is equal to about 10 cents on a bushol of wheat Ami a ltko amount on other products. This line would be a saving of soveral hundred thousands and dollars to tho farmers oh their products, and it is safe to assume that the tariff saved on the lumber indus try of the same territory wonld amount to fully as much. Therefore, if the products of this great valley could reach the markets of tho world by way of tho Yaquina harbor, which is with in a stone's throw of the high seas, and already connected by a railroad sys tem with a shorter trackage from the heart of the Willamette Valloy than to Portland. I have not had time to prepare any figures or statistics of tho amount of produce that would natur ally pass through the port of Yaqulna if it were improved so as to admit deep water steamers. But we assume that all tho wheat, wool, hops, lumber and other products of the upper Willamette Valley and a portion of southern Oro gon would bo shipped through Yaqui na harbor, nnd at a big saving of freight to the farmers as was done in the days gone by when the line of steamers ran out of that harbor. The C. & E. B. B. has built its track within few miles of eastern Oregon, and to admit ships of largo tonnage. Hon. John Daly, survoyor general of Oregon, has estimated thnt thoro is nind billion foot of standing greon merchantable spruce, fir and hemlock timber In Lincoln county. If this os timato is correct it would rcquiro ton sawmills of a capacity of 100,000 foot por day for 20 years to manufacture this timber into lumber. It would take a ship with a carrying capacity of 1,000,000 feet 24 years if it left Yaqul na harbor overy. day In tho year to transport this lumber, nnd would give employment to a thousand mon for 24 years. This is only ono Industry in ono littlo county tributary to Yaqulna bay. Open our rivers, deepen our harbors, build up tho merchant mnrlno nnd we will hnvo a safety valve that will regu Into freight rates on all manner of transportation. can easily extend it to the wheat and wool producing country in that region, and there Is no doubt but that this company will extend their road when ever they see the Other Improvements of Yaquina harbor in sight Lane, Marion, Polk, Benton, all have millions of feet of timber that is being manu factured into lumber and would in the very nature of things pass through this harbor .were there sufficient water WHAT SHE ENDURED THE TRIPLE LIFE LED BY A PROMINENT TEACHER. A Strenuous Woman Tells How Sao Works All tho Timo and Yet Is Able to Keep Up Her Btrongth There are few instances of pluckier womanhood, than that of Mrs. Mattlo E. Harris, principal of ono of the pub lic schools of Council Grove, Knnsas, who Is widely known in thnt state as a most successful teacher. Most women would give up in utter discourogemont if thoy had to face difficulties of tho sort alio is meeting nnd surmounting dally. Sho goes unflinchingly ahoad, uses up hor strength overy day and yet always gofs a fresh supply in timo for tho morrowl's need. How sho manages to do so much without wearing out is a secret worth knowing. "Tell me your story, Mrs. narris," said a roportcr to hor rccontly. "It will bo most helpful to multitudes of overworked women." "Well," said Mrs. Harris, "I havo suffered a great deal from heart troublo and from extremo nervous tonslon, liv ing daily on tho verge of constant col lapsed I am well acquainted with tho strain of overwork. For moro than 15 years circumstances havo made it nec essary for mo to improvo every oppor tunity to incrcaso my income, and havo loft mo very iitle timo for rest. I havo filled thrc-o sphcrs of labor that of principal of a school during five days of tho week, that of assistant in a busy storo on tho busiest day of the week, Saturday, and that of caretak er of home nnd children all tho timo. "In 1000-1 1 had a groat deal of do ziness, accompanied by a senso of suf focation and shortness of breath. I wn very nervous, particularly In my eyes, and I could not sleep. One of my lady, frionds was thoroughly alarmod about my condition, and said I lookod as if I was going to dio. By tho advice of a friend in Wllsoy, who had usod Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, with beneficial results, I began to take them when my condition was most serious. "Tho first box relieved mon, and six or seven offected a euro. They checked tho palpitation and banished tho dirzl- noes, the twitching of the eyes and tho nervous sensations in general, I am ablo now to sleep llko a log, and am do ing my threefold work with perfeet reg ularity. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills aro all right, and I do not hesitatae to com mend tbem." These are atrong words supported by corresponding facts. Mrs. Harris can bo found in the school, or the store, or the home, a woman of quick intelli gence and stirring aetivity, serving ber family and tho community in a manner that shows how much benefit she has re ceived from this wonderful blood and nerve tonic. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills can be talc en for any length of timo with absolute safety, as they do not contain a single grain of any harmful ingredient.

The digestion-destroying pro cess is gradual, often unnoticed nt first. But It is only a short time until the liver balks, the digestive organs give way, and almost countless ills assail the man who endeavors to economise time at the ex pense of his health. q A torpid liver causes a quarantine of the entire system. It locks in the diseased germs and body poisons arfd affords them full play, inviting some serious Illness. Jin families where August l'loweris used, a sluggish liver and constipation are un known, so are all stomach ailments, as well as indigestion, dyspepsia, heartburn, headaches and kidney and binder affec tions.
