Worth Reading.

In all the Baking Powder % WARS that have
been internationally waged in the last twenty
years, there is one point that has been over
looked by the belligerent makers of the goods.
Rival manufacturers have contented them
selves with accusing their competitors of MAX
ing an unwhOlesome product. The question of
keeping quality, and, therefore, efficiency in
raising bread, the only purpose for which bak-
ing powder is used appears to have been gen.
orally ignored. There are many powders
which, when fresh, and the can is first uncover
ed, will do fairly good work but after standing
for some time on the pantry shelf, the power
becomes so weak as to be almost worthless as
far as raising bread is concerned. This lis es.
pecially true in the case of the so,called
phosphate" powers, which, were it not for
this fatal defect would be satisfactory baking
powers The unsuccessful attempts to over
come this fault of the "Phosphate' powders
has enlisted the services of more chemists and
cost more money than the solution of any
other problem connected with the raising of
bread. The makers of these Phosphate"
powders raise great cry about the-wonder-
full healthfulness of their product, but what
matters all this if the powder will not fulfill
the only object for which it is purchased?
The housewife to whom economy is an object
viii avoid these Phosphate powders

Republican County Committee
MeetinQ,

The Republican County Committee ofPierce
county by it's Executive Committee held a
meeting in the office of the county clerk, on
Thursday, April T. 1904 at l o'clock D. M, for
the purpose of issuing the call for the county
convention to elect eight delegates TO repre-
sent said county in the Congressional COnven-
ton, to be held at SpOOner, Wis, April %,
1904, and also to issue the call for the county
convention to elect fourteen delegates to rep
resent said county in the State Convention to
be held at Madison, May IS, 1904. For the in
formation of the Republicans of Pierce county
your committee desire to explain the reasons
for calling two separate conventions which
are as follows; First. That owing to the de-
lay of the congressional committee in calling
time to issue the call for the county conven-
ton and caucuSeS to come within the require
mentS of the law governing the same; Sec
Ond, That the convention to elect delegates
to the State Convention must be called on a
notice of not less than four weeks The no.
tice of calling of the State Convention was
not received until April 7, 1904 at II O'Clock M
the two conventions to convene on the same
date and further that the apportionment of
delegates are not on the same basis. The
number Of delegates for the Congressional
Convention are based upon the Republican
vote for Member of Congress for 1902 and for
the State Convention on the Republican vote
for Governor in 1909.
In making the county apportiopment we
have followed that rule and apportioned the
county on the basis of one delegate for each
IS votes or major fraction thereof, and towns
having less than a major fraction thereof
were allowed one delegate.
Respectfully Submitted,
w E. WARREN Chairman.
g. MANSER, Secretary.

NEW RECEIVER
is APPOINTED
"JlM" HAYNIE IN CHARGE OF
RYAN PROPERTY.
COMPLAINT WAS DEFECTIVE
City Gains Point Over Larson in Ac-
ton t. Recover for Per-
sonaI Damages.
WAS DEFECTIVE

A change has been made in the
~receivership of the Ryan Bros. Cat
tile company. F. w. Handel, who was
appointed by the district court when
the litigation in which the company is
involved began, rendered his resigna-
ton last Friday afternoon. This vas
accepted and at the suggestion OF
all the parties interested the court
named James R. Haynie to succeed
Mr.. Handel and fixed his bond at $10,-
900. This was forthcoming Saturday
morning and approved by Judge Loud,
thus placing Mr.. Haynie in charge OF
the company's property.
When Mr.. Handel arrived in the
city last week he expressed a wish to
be relieved of his position, not being
able to give it all the time it required
without materially ~neglecting his own
affairs. The name of Mr.. Haynie was
suggested as a good man to succeed
him, being a practical bowman" and
thoroughly c%onversant with all the
details of the business. The sugges-
ton was favorably received by the
cattle company and the parties pen
| dency of whose suits is responsible
for the appointment of a receiver.
This having been satisfactorily ar
ranged Mr.. Handel submitted his
third and final report and account,
accompanied by his written resigna'
ton. By agreement the report Was
allowed and signed by the court.
Complaint Was Defective.
The city won the first fall in the
action Instituted against it by Peter
Larson for the recovery of judgment
on account of personal injuries al.
lacuc 70 hare 1een sustained by Gain,
tiff because of negligence on the part
of defendant to keep its streets free
from obstruction. The matter came
up Friday afternoon, when City At
torney Matheson submitted a demur.
rer to the complaint. He attacked ii
on the ground that the record failed
to show that notice had been given
the city of plaintiffs intention to
begin the action, a prerequisite un
der the law, which provides that priol
to the institution of an action of thai
nature against a municipal corpora
ton due notice must be given.
The defense confessed the demurrer
and was granted 80 days in which
to give the required notice and file
another complaint

Once more the long pending con
troversy between the Kennedy estate
and William Dickie came up for con
sideration. On motion of F. H. Hath
