"PreCiAeIY AN AdYertiaed.V

Soon after one of the largest American
railways had been opened a traveller noticed
a marked disregard for punctuality on the
part of the officials, but he vas interested
IN the country and made no complaint. At
last the terminus was reached. There he
met a beaming official of the company. who,
pulling out his watch, said:
Just look and see what time you make
it, will you please

traveller, a little puzzled.
Yes, sir. 1880 exactly, and that's the
hour she's timed to arrive. How's that for
promptness? Crossing the continent, al,

fectly Pure Atmosphere.

In a recent bulletin of the Michigan

Things, to the need of performing this
operation in a thoroughly pure atmo-
sphere.
His conclusions are in part as fol.

Z. his aeration is demonstrated by
the reduction in the amount of carbon

greatly.

interchange takes place in absolutely

TROUBLE BEGINS.

Trouble begins with the first back
ache. Baekache in many
forms. Sudden twinges of pain, sharp
stitches, slow exhaustive aches.
Most backache pains are kidney

To Escape Potato scab.

When the soil has become badly in.
rested with the scab fungus it is
usually cheaper to abandon potato
growing upon it for a time at least
thar to continue the practice. The
best system of cropping to purify the
soil and the length of time which
should elapse before potatoes NAV
be grown again with safety is not
fully determined. The evidence in
dlcates that root crops should be
avoided and that grains, including
corn, grasses, and especially clover,
are the best cleaning crops. The
turning under of a green crop, like
clover, just before potatoes are
again planted is especially commend

WILL REGULATE TRUSTS.
Attorney General Knox Resumes
Work in Preparing q Bill,

A bill intended to be introduced in
congress for the regulation of trusts il
being prepared by Attorney General
Knox. 1t is the presidents wish that
this measure be introduced at the com
ing short session, but this will not be
absolutely decided upon until after the
leaders of the house and senate have
been consulted. AS long ago as last
June Mr.. Knox drafted bill which en-
bodied substantially his own views and
those OF President Roosevelt in regard
to the further regulation of industrial
and commercial combinations, and, it
was expected for some time that this
measure would be introduced for passage
before the adjournment of the last ses
sion. 1t was urged by some OF the lead.
ers IN congress, however, that the time
was too short, and that the closing bust
ness OF the session was crOWding to the
utmost.
1t was then decided that nothing
should be done until the next session
and possibly not until the convening Of
the new congress which will come to
gether in December. 1908. This plan
was especially acceptable to some of the
influential men in the administration
who preferred to have the matter post
poned until after the congressional elec.
tions this fall
President Roosevelt was not afraid to
let his views become known in general
terms, however, as was proven in his
Fourth of July speech at Pittsburg, and
in subsequent utterances during the sum
| mer and early fall. About two weeks
ago Attorney General Knox delivered
his carefully prepared speech on the
commerce clause of the constitution be
fore the Chamber of Commerce at Pitts
| burg, and although the fact was not
generally known at the time, the speech
was intended to be ''fair warning" to
the country as to what the president in
tends to advocate affecting trust regu
lation and control.

so-called anti trust bill, which was begun
last summer, has been recently resumed
Tor the measure as framed at that time
was not altogether acceptable to him or
to the president. Mr.. Knox made
known in his Pittsburg speech that he
believes the courts will uphold a law
when goes considerably farther than
the Sherman antitrust law; that il. that
the provisions OF that act NAV be so
extended as to apply to producing COM
panles as well as to interstate transpor-
tatlon companies. The bill now in
preparation will embody those views.

What is LIQUID Air?

The lecture and entertainment to be
given next Monday evening at The
RldgeWay Is worthy of the time and at
tentlOn the readers and students should
give it. Marvellous discoveries have
been made only recently in the fields of
science and liquid air is one of the most
marvellous. This entertainment and
demonstration was given in the labor
atorles at the Agricultural college at
Pullman for the instruction of the stu
dents OF that institution and those who
witnessed it, agree that it is wonder
ful discovery. The seemingly contra
dictory qualities OF liquid air make it a
curiosity to science. 1t will freeze al
cOhOl or melt steel. 1t will freeze the
fame over which it is set, but will boil
violently on a cake of ice. 1t freezes
mercury as hard as iron. 1t makes
herce lire with tin cans as fuel. You
can dip your hand into it, but if held in
1T for two minutes your fingers could be
broken off like icicles. In open cans it is
harmless as water, but when confined is
hundred times stronger than steam,
and can be made a more powerful ex-
plosive than dynamite. 1t is the pur-
pose OF the lecture to show by actual
experiment every power that LIQUID air
is known to possess. The Ladies' In
provement society should be congratu-
lated upon being able to secure this
highly instructive and experimental lee
ture for the people OF Colfax. 1t is not
a fake-it is one OF the new fields open
ing up in the scientific world. It is well
worth the price of admission and, should
you go, your time will be well employed.

Inc proclamation is as follows:
According to the yearly custom of
our people, 1t falls upon the president at
this season to appoint a day of festival
ana thanksgiving to God. Over a CEN
Jury and quarter has passed since this
country took it's place among the ma
tlons OF the earth, and during that time
we have had, on the whole, more to be
thankful for than has fallen to the lot of
any other people. Generation after gen

peculiar burdens, each to face its speciaI
Crisis, and each has known years Of grim
trial, when the country was menaced bv
malice, domestic and foreign, when the
hand OF the Lord was heavy upon it in
flood or pestilence, when in bodily dis
tress and anguish of soul it paid the
penalty OF folly and a forward heart
Nevertheless, decade after decade, we
have struggled onward and upward: we
now enjoy material well being and under
the favor OF the most high we are striy-
ing earnestly to achieve moral and spir-
ltual uplifting. The year that has lust
closed has been one of peace and over
moving plenty. Rarely has any people
enjoyed greater prosperity than we are
now enjoying. For this we render heart
felt and solemn thanks to the giver of
good, and we seek to praise him not bv
words only, but by deeds, by the gay in
which we do our duty to ourselves and
to our fellow men. Now, therefore, |,
Theodore Roosevelt, president of the
United States, do hereby designate as a
day OF general thanksgiving, Thursday.

people shall cease from their ordinary
occupations and in their several homes
and places OF worship render thanks
unto Almighty God for the manifold
blessings of the past year.

A wild stampede is in progress at
Boise, Idaho. All the livery rigs and all
the available horses have been secured
by those engaged in the rush, and many
have gone on foot. The cause of the
stampede is the discovery of an enor-
mously rich body of ore in the Black
Hornet district, 16 miles east of Boise.
The ore was found in running an open
