If Chinarnan, usually regarded by US as

The reporters discovered during Ii Hung
Changes stay in this country, that he took
every thought for his health. He lived
upon the simplest of diets and never passed
a day without consulting his physician.
He limited his toll to a reasonable number
of hours, and would not deviate from his
rule in this matter. American men follow
just the opposite practice. They work to
the limit OF endurance, will not even take
the proper time for eating, resting and
sleeping, and never think of their health
until it is gone. There is wonderful med

THE EXEMPTION LAW

The republican press OF the state
has howled and howled and kept
bowling about the 'popullstexemp-
ton law" and yet every one OF
them would gladly take every adj
vantage OF the same, and at the
same time they forgot to tell you
that it was a republican supreme
court that declared the same un-
constitutional. The fact OF the bust
ness is just this. The law is no
more a populist measure than a
republican measure. II was Dan
Lesh, the senator from Yakima
county who introduced the bill in
the senate. We here reproduce a
synopsis OF the bill.
5. B. al, by Lesh-1n the first
section provides that there shall be
exempt from taxation and attach
ment to every householder personal
property to the value OF $1,000 in
addition to the real property ex-
empt under section 1876, OF volume
2, OF Hills Statutes and Code OF
the State OF Washington, but no
property shall be exempt from ex-
ecution for clerks laborers' or me-
chanics' wages earned within the
state, nor shall any property be
exempt from execution issued
upon a judgment against an at
torney on account OF any liability
incurred to his clients on account
OF any money, or other property
coming into his hands belonging
to his client"
Dan Lesh is a republican, was
elected to the senate as a republic
can, the measure was supported by
republicans and became a law by
and with the assistance OF republic
can votes. These facts ought to 60
a long ways in putting to silence
the wild gable Of the republican
press and party OF the state.
