GIVES HIS BRAIN AWAY.
Expert on Diabetes Dies of Diseas.
After Makinu Will

ITHACA, N. Y, Sept. 26.-The de-
partment Of neurology of the medical
college of Cornell university considers
DR.. George S. Conant's gift to them of
mis- own brain as the most important of
the whole collection of 1900 human
brains, which lines the walls of the
departments offices.
DR.. Conant is the physician who died
yesterday in New York from diabetes
and left his brain to Professor Bert G
Wilder, Of Cornell university, who has
made a speciality for 40 years of the
study of the human brain. Mr.. Con-
ants instructions are that his brain
shall be used to discover, if possible,
the cause of the disease of dia abetes, for
which there is no cure known today
to the medical profession.
DR.. Conant himself had been for
years a sufferer from diabetes. The
scientific experiments which he has
conducted upon his own case and the
detailed record he kept of all the symp-
toms of the disease. which finally
proved fatal to him, are what make the
gift Of the brain to science so valuable.
DR.. COnant came to the conclusion
himself that the disease diabetes has
its origin in the brain and it remains
now for the medical faculty of Cornell
university to determine whether his
conclusion is we'll founded. Should
the experiments, which will soon be
begun, throw even the slightest light
upon the cause of the disease of dia
betes, it is thought by the medical pro-
fessiOn that thousands of lives can be
saved annually

aries on Thanksgiving day here. The
first game will be with the University
of Washington. The Whitman team
will leave for Saettle a week from
Thursday night.
The Whitman team is getting strong
er every day and prospects are now
that she will make her opponents hus-
tie to keep her from getting the cham
pionship. Washington has lost several
of her finest men, Pullman will be no
better than last year. while Whitman
will and the University of Idaho has
also to work green men this year.
Whitman's team will be light, but very
fast.

LUMBER CONDEMNED.
Nearly Thousand Feet Bad Bridge
Timber.

County Surveyor Lewis W. Loehr
was obliged to condemn from 600 to
1000 feet of the lumber furnished for
the Stanfield bridge over Dry creek.
The pieces condemned were key wedge
and yoke pieces and should be remark
ably strong. Instead Of this they were
pitchy and cracked the whole length.
This will delay the construction or the
bridge about a month but Mr.. Loehr
says he is determined to have it one
of the best small bridges in the county
and that it would not be safe with
such rotten lumber in such a vital
part.

ance of this question impels me to re-
fer to it again. The issue is oftentimes
referred to as constitutionalism vs. i'm
perialism.
If we would retain our liberties and
constitutional rights unimpaired, we
cannot permit or tolerate, at any time
or for any purpose. the arrogatlOn or
unconstitutional powers by the execu-
tive branch of our government. we
should be ever mindful of the words of
Webster: Liberty is only to be pre-
served by maintaining constitutional
restraints and a just division of polit-
ical powers
Already the national government has
become centralized beyond any point
contemplated by the founders or the
constitution. How tremendously all this
has added to the power Of the pres
idena. 1t has developed from year 10
wear until it almost equals that OF
many monarchs. While the growth OF
orr country and the magnitude OF IN
tarstate interests may seem to furnish
= plausible reason for this centrallZa-
ton of power, yet these same facts az
ford the most potent reason why the
executive should not be permitted 10
encroacn upon the other Depart
ments of the government, and assume
legislative, or other powers, not e4-
nressly conferred by the constitution.
The magnitude Of the country and IT'S
d,,ors;tv of interests and population
would enable a determined. ambitious
and able executive, unmlnd1ul OF
