Some we'll informed grain men
and millers of eastern Washington
estimate that the surplus wheat for
expert fram ths inland empire after
the coming harvest will not be far
from $4,000 tons, and is as likely
to exceed those figures as to fall
under them. This estimate, which
all conservative men must regard
as too high, is based on the acre
age now in cultivation and on last
years output. Assessors returns
from all wheat growing counties
in eastern Washington, from Una
tilla, Gillian, Wasce, Union ani
Baker counties in Oregon, and from
the Pot!atch country in Idaho,
which have recently been collected
at Walla Walla, show that there is
in cultivation at this time trlGe
over 609,0 acres. Tie optimists
consider that the country will aver
age twenty-five bushels to the acre,
thus making the yield. according to
this calculation, -, 100000 bushels
| or 100000 tors-net counting in
the odd 1000 tons. Allowing 600,-
900 bushels to be held for seed. and
l,250,000 for home consumption,
say 5000 tons, there remains 315,.
600 tons for export.

Chief Justice Chase, in an epin-
ion of the supreme court, declared
that our government is confeder-
alton of sovel aign states. The same
view as to the sovereignty of the
states has just been upheld by the
same court in a suit ct law in which
ths Chicago and Rock Island in the
state of Kansas made the point that
the state did not have or possess
the right to regulate the railroads
within the bounds of an United
STATES military reservation. Upon
appeal the supreme court Of the
United States afiirms such right in
state, deciding that a state does
not lose its jurisdiction by reason Of
the sequestion Of the land by the
federal government for special pur-
poses. This decision, upon princi
pie, should enable the state of Kan.
sas to levy and collect taxes upon
the roadbed of said corporation.
In this case the sovereignty Of the
state has bsea upheld. These de.
cisjons are noS more important to

rectly than they. are to the student
Of politics who watches eagerly She

Popular Errors Concerning 1aeaith.

Professor George II. Robe, of the
College of Physician and Surgeons,
Baltimore, in recent lecture quot
ed the saying, "One mans neat is
another's poison" and showed that,
while idiosyncrasies with regard to
certain articles of food or .,edicines
do exist, they are far less frequent
than is generally believed. Arti-
cles Of fosd which ordinarily dis
agree may be better borne if differ
emily cooked. A more serious er-
ror is that one should rise from the
table hungry. The sensation of
hunger is a cry Of the tissues for
feod, and should always be appeas.
ed. Much of the i'll health of brain
workers is due to lack of sufficient
food. 1t is impossible to lay down
hard rules as to the quantity OF
food one should eat, but the re-
marks Of the old country doctor
who he'd liveG in good health. doir g
hard work until fourscore and ten,
might be taken as examples: Il
have always eaten VIXEN l wanted
to eat, as much as 1 wanted, and
the best food l could get" Another
fallacy is, that all diseases are due
to disturbances Of digestion. Ora
ham bread, oatmeal, cracked wheat,
ETC., are more difficult of digestion
than pure wheat bread.
| 1t is dangerous error to with.
hold cold drinks from persons sick
with fever. 1t is cruel, obiectless,
and the dangers that are said to
follow it are Imaginary. The ne
tion that we should not bathe while
overheated is as unreasonable as il
is widespread, but persons should
not remain in the bath long enough
to become chilled. The traditiona
axiom that boils are an evidence O.
good health is snare and delus
ion. Prof. Robe said: "For my
own part, I should prefer to bs
without that sort Of health. Ever
job, when suffering from an abun
dant crop, could not gain consola
ton from his would-be comfortors.
!, That vaccination does not pre-
vent smallpox is very dangerous er
ror, but that it is preventive O.
other diseases is equally q fallacy
Statistics prove that before the in
PRODUCTION of vaccination death
annually from smallpox numbered
Z nearly 5000 for every million in
habitants. Since the practice ha
: become general the percentage @
O deaths has fallen to about one tent
Of the former number. Witheu
vaccination the deaths from smal
s pox in this country would be 100
e 900 a year. Vaccination has no
: increased other diseases. That an
o ono remedy is cure for all disease
that afiict humanity IS an absurc
ity.

Maj. Ben Perley Poore was
among the gentlemen presented to
President Cleveland Wednesday
morning Maj. Poore, when he
shock hands with the president, re-
marked thatthis was the seventeenth

Adams especially we'll, because he
once attended the laying Of a corner

day was hot and the president re-
moved mis- coat. Young Poore had
the pleasure Of holding this coat.
President Cleveland expressed great

Vanderbilt is said to be worth

What young man, however poor,
would trade of his best girl for
Vanderbilt, or what struggling
granger, though he may have more
children than he knows how to
take good care of, would swop one
of them for Vanderbilt and all his
gold and silverl And still young
