What Shall We Do?

A serious and dangerous disease prevails in
this country, dangerous because so deceptive.
1t comes on so slowly yet surely that 1t is often
firmly seated before we are aware of
The name of this disease which may be diyid-
|edinto three distinct stages is, First. Kidney
trouble, indicated by pain in the back, rheuma-
tism, lumbagO, frequent desire to uriuate, often
with burning sensation, the flow of urine be-
ing copious or scant with strong odor.
If allowed to advance, this reaches the Second
stage, or Bladder trouble, with heavy pain in
the abdomen low.doWn between the naval and
the water passage, increasing desire to urinate,
with scalding sensation i'll passing, small guam
titles being passed with difficulty, sometimes
necessary to draw it with Instruments. III uric
acid or gravel has formed, 1t will prove danger
Gus if neglected.
The Third stage is Brights Disease.

The Journal to Eastern Friends for
Three Months for Only 25 Cents.


Owing to the large number of people
in the Eastern states who do not want
to experience such another winter as
they have just passed through and
who will be induced to come west by
the low rates now offered by the N. P.
R'y Co. to homeseekers, we have con-
cluded to make special homeseekers'
rate on the JOURNAL during the period
that the low rates prevail. Fora short
time we offer the JOURNAL sent to any
Eastern address at the low rate of Is
cents for three months. If you have
any Eastern friends who want to learn
something about this section, three
months will probably give them all
the information they need.

Now the Union Pacific.

The recent trouble in railroad circles
j between President Mellen of the North
] ern Pacifcoand President Mohler OF
the o. R. & N. may lead to direct bene-
fit to this city says the Olympian. The
falling out of these two great railway
corporations has been exploited in the
press of late and all efforts to patch up
a truce between them has come to
naught. The result of the war is ap-
parent. The Union must come to Pu-
get Sound. and there's but one OPEN
ing that the company can take advan-
tage of-the building of a line parallel
! ing the Northern Pacific from Port
land. AS the Union Pacific now con-
trolls the roadbed which the company
originally made, it will undoubtedly
be taken advantage of in protecting
the rights of the railway, and in this
way Olympia may get direct benefit
from the war between the roads. The
great wonder is that a roadhed on
which SO much money was spent should
be so long idle. It need not surprise
anyone if work on the road is resum-
ed before long.
If this is true it will offer competing
lines at Olympia, and offer further in
ducements for speedy Completion of
the Port Angeles & Eastern Railroad
now building from the straits, and as
sure outside rail connection for Shell
ton.
Work on the new railroad from Port
Angeles, is progressing favorable
The Van Norman Bridge company has
secured the contract for the first half
mile OF bridge and cribbing work on
Port Angeles water front and grad
ing contracts have also been let for
several sections of the first few miles.
Contracts are also out for. piles and
lumber has been ordered at Ballard,
there being no mill capable of handl-
ing the lumber on the short time
necessary. A building boom is also
opening up in Angeles. and there is
difficulty of securing lumber fast
enough. The railroad company has
purchased portable spwmill for its
future work as the road progresses.
Everything indicates that the concern
means business.

1t has been decided by the attorney
general of the, state that the personal
property tax exemption is operative
for this assessment It will not--mean
very much for the ordinary taxpayer,
however. One does not necessarily
get an exemption of $500, and prob
ably very few will get so much, All
that is exempt from taxation is the
property of heads of families consist
ing of wearing apparel, beds and bed
ding for each member OLA family,
household and kitchen furniture, and
necessary tools of trade. The attorney
general holds that tool Of trade is an
