cation should have come up in some
other manner.
Conner then told the facts of the
case. This investigation is asked"
said he, because it has been speci-
tiCally charged that Mr. WormSer
paid 100000 to two members of this
commission. He was at the time at
work on ditch in Sweet Grass
county. The money was paid toward
the bond to aid in digging that ditch
1t is charged that no part of the
money was used for that purpose.
This is the one specific charge. If
it be true, we should know the facts.
If it be not true. the facts should then
come out for the sakes Of the men
who are accused. That is why the
resolution is introduced. That is
why an investigation is asked at this
time without waiting for the report
of the commission. Such step is
favored by all who are interested in
the matter
The resolution was then put to a
vote and carried without dissenting
voice.

Dyspepsia.

People that have dyspepsia have
weak stomachs, weak hearts, weak
eyes and are usually weakened.
They feel bilious, and the world in
general has a bilious look to them;
they have so many symptoms that it
is difficult to locate the place where
they feel the worst. The fact is, the
source from where they get their
strength has been cut off, and they
are sick all over. The food taken in
to the stomach remains undigested,
causing belching and bilious attacks,
followed by sick-headache, and gen
eral weakness. The medicine that
puts the stomach in condition SO that
the food al be readily digested, will
cure dyspepsia, and make strength
where there was weakness. We have
cured thousands of persons during
the past 20 years of dyspepsia, with

SEVEN MILLION F|u|P|NOS
GOVERNMENT CENSUS IS TAKEN
 SUCCESSFULLY
The Enumeators Met With Some Opposition in the Smaller Provinces, Where Threats Were Made to Use Force if Necessary

San Francisco-Genera J. F. Sanger, former chief of staff under General Chaffee, but lately in charge of the census work in the Philippine islands, has arrived from Manila on his way to Washington.
 The census taking began on March 3. and in six weeks it was completed. Two months preparatory work was necessary before the task was under taken. It was accomplished with the assistance of 1000 enumerators, and the government is in possession of 100000 names, representing the civilized portion of the native popu' lation of the islands. By carefully compiled figures the uncivilized popu- latlon is about COOL
 In discussing the work General San ger said:
 "There was no serious opposition encountered in any of the larger islands, and this was especially true  of Samar and Leyte, where there was no interference whatever with tho enumerators.
 "In the island of Gamaguin, nortf of the province of Misamis, Mindanao the enumerators were threatened anc opposed, and it was necessary to us' force. but Governor Corrales though the demons tration had other objects in view and that the census merel! precipitated the movement.
 "Vicious people in CeEu spread report that taxation was the real pur pose of the government in taking tn census, and in two or three barrlo of that pueblo some objection wa made to it.'

HISTORY OF CALIFORNIA INDIANS
An Important Work Undertaken by
 Berkeley University

University of California-With the object of obtaining a complete history of the aboriginal people and languages of California, the University of Cali fornla has sent broadcast circular that contains an appeal to all Cali fornians to aid in the survey of the state for Indian relics, through which the anthropologists may trace the history of the pre- historic population.
 Information of the location of caves, shell heaps, old burial places, ancient village sites and scattered fragments or survivors of nearly extinct tribes is earnestly solicited, to help out the ethnological and archaeological study of the state. A greater diversity of languages exists among the India ns in California than anywhere else in America, which has been stumbling block in the way of anthropologists engaged in the study of race which is rapidly passing away. The languages are rapidly disappearing, in turn, and scarcely year goes by without some special dialect becoming extinct. To preserve these languages the University of California is now training students to carry on the research before the opportunity passes
