It appears to be q settled thing that
San Francisco has failed in its effort to
raise al adequate fund to advertise itself
In connection with the Klondike trade
After hercuiean efforts $4,000 was sub
scribed, fraction of similar fund In
Seattle. San Francisco Is not liberal, but
1t Is wise. Its merchants are slow to give
when returns are certain, and they are
cerrespondingly swift In refusing to give
when the venture has the aspect Of throw
ing good money after none. The city's
newspapers. especially the Chronicle. have
left no stone unturned 10 arouse the busi-
ness community to its supposed oppo--
tunities; but all to no avail San Francisco
might as well try to divert the great Jap
anese current as turn the tide of Klondika
travel from Seattle. One or two of its
newspapers now admit the truth, but con-
tent them selves with the ominous declara-
ton that when the travel turns backward
Seattle will get a terrible black eye, and
they will so by way Of San Francisco. But
the California papers say the Yukoners
will then be broke If that is so, what do
they want with them?

An immigration law that will shut out
the pauper and ilii.erate classes of Europe
from the United States is an imperative
need. The correspondent who today sug-
gests that all immigration be- suspended
for ten years goes altogether too far: but
there is a great deal of force to his argu-
ment. What We really want and ought to
have is law that will admit the best
and shut out the worst. The trouble is to
get such a law. The educational test is
commonly suggested and generally advo-
Gated. Nc doubt 1t would exclude great
many who in TIME would make useful and
worthy citizens; but no other plan seems
practicable. 1t is likely that the present
congress will enact legislation on the SUBJ
ject.

SEATTLE, WEDNESDAY, DEC.
THE CEDAR RIVER SYSTEM.

There is no doubt whatever that the
Cedar river water system must De put

the people and no power can stop IL.
The people have, however only done q
part OF the work needed. They did not
vote to pay for the work; they only
voted that a contract should be let by
the council. and provided that In the
future the contractor could reimburse
himself out of the surplus water rents.
Meantime. he must not only pay all the
cost of the work, but must reimburse
the city for Its outlay on the right-of-
way.
No contractor will ever undertake the
work unless the foundation Is 50 Sc
curely laid that II can Withstand every
future legal assault. The foundation
OF the whole scheme is the right-of-way.
If that Is insecure in any part. the
whole plan might be blocked. 1t Is no

Would-be Senator Corbett, OF Oregon.

This assertion will be demonstrated In
time The committee on privileges and

favor and the case will be discussed upon

stated without any qualifications. There

there is no doubt whatever.

and indicate this pathway 20 her daughters
There are too many unhappy-too many IN
healthy women IN the world Al every
gathering where women meet alone, the
story is heard Of sickness and nervousness
and dependency.
The woman wlo suffers in this way makes
a mistake to consult the average obscure
physician. If she does SO, the chances are
that she is told that her trouble is nervous
ness or insomfea OF indigestion or heart
trouble. 1t does not happen very often that
this diagnosis is correct. When BY some
fortunate chance she is told the truth, that
she is suffering from weakness and disease
of the distinctly feminine organism, she IS
told at the same time that she must submit
to the obnoxious examinations and local
treatment SO embarrassing to . sensitive
woman. All this is unnecessary.
The wise woman will seek the advice OF
some specialist of world wide reputation.
DR.. K. v. Pierce IS such a man. For thirty
years he has been chief consulting physi-
clan TO the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute. at Buffalo, NJ Y. During that
time, with the assistance of staff of emf
nent physicians, he has treated thousands
OF ailiug women. He is the inventor OF
that wonderful medicine for women known
as Dr. pierce's Favorite Prescription. This
medicine acts directly on the delicate and
important organs that make maternity pos
sible. II cures all weakness, disease. in

The steamer Columbia sailed or was to

mining Adventures to the number of
about coo. Two interesting facts should be
noted with regard to her start-one Is that
she will touch at Seattle only on her way
to st. Michael. The other is that. in San

subscribed TO the Alaska trade committee

raised in San Francisco.

A great many OF San Francisco's busi-

would do no good: but. IL there be any

be the beneficiary next spring, unless the
fund at the disposal Of the Alaska trade
committee shall increase much more rap
