THE LAW is SUSTAINED
Supreme Court Reverses King County
Decision Over Assessment Rate.

OLYMPIA. July 15.-The supreme
court has reversed the superior court
of King county and upheld the consti-
nationality of that section of the law
of 1901 which provides a minimum
mortuary assessment for fraternal in
surance associations organized subse-
quent to the enactment of the law.
The action was in the nature of an
application for an injunction by the
state of Washington directed against
the Fraternal knights and Ladies. 1t
was brought at the instigation of the
state insurance commissioner. who al
leges that the association has Orga-
nized under the law of 1901. but has
adopted assessment rates less than the
minimum prescribed by law. The state
state seeks to prevent the association
from doing business until the violations
are corrected.
ton demurred to the complaint on the
ground that the facts were not SUM
cient to constitute a cause of action
The demurrer was sustained and the
state appealed.

WILL BE PRETTY FIGHT OVER
SELECTION OF SUCCESSOR
TO THE SENATOR.
Numerous Prominent Republicans Of
Indiana Would Be Willing to
Get the Job.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, July IS
There are prospects of a pretty fight
in Indiana before decision is
reached as to who shall fill the sena-
torial seat left vacant by Mr.. Fair
banks in the event of national repub-
|lican success at the polls next Novem-
ber The Hoosier members of the re-
publican host are not ready to admit
the slightest possibility of defeat for
the Roosevelt Fairbanks ticket, and
are shaping their plans accordingly.
Already in the field and being urged
by their friends are four receptive"
candidates, with still another just
dawning abose the horizon.
Prominent among those mentioned
for the toga are Governor Durbin,
whose term as chief executive of the
state expires in January next; Con-
gresham James A. Hemenway, chair
man of the house committee on
appropriations ana the TlSnl MANU- Hldll
|of Speaker Cannon; Congressman
Charles B. Lands, and Congressman
Crumpacker, who wants the southern
representation cut down.
These three were Immediately men,
toned when it became apparent that
the vice presidential tide had set in the
direction of Senator Fairbanks. The
party leaders appear confident of hav-
ing a good working republican ma
jOrity in the next legislature. The
new body will meet in January and will
then choose a successor to Mr.. Fair
banks.
In the event of a democratic sue
cess in the state, however, it is believed
that the choice of the party for the
|senatorship would lie between John w.
Kern of this city and Benjamin F.
Shively of South Bend.

FEELINGS STILL HURT
Man Who Was Put Off Fairview,
WASH, Can Cannot Collect.

| OLYMPIA. Wash, July 15.-The
supreme court has sustained the su-
perior court Of King county in dam
age to personal-feelings case instituted
! by A. E. Braymer against the Seattle,
Renton & Southern Railway company.
Braymer was on the company's car,
intending to go to Fairview. When
the car reached Brighton Beach, the
conductor informed Braymer that that
was the destination of that particular
car but that another of the COM
pany's cars would come along in a
few moments and carry him on to Fair
view.
When the car arrived and Bray
mer boarded it. the conductor request
ed payment of another scent fare.
The passenger refused to pay his
nickel, claiming that when he boarded
he paid for transportation to Fairview,
and that he did not intend to pay
double fare. The conductor and mo-
torman then put Braymer off the car.
which SO incensed him that he brought
suit for damages against the COM
pany for $500 on the ground of
breach of contract, but the courts took
the view that as the plaintiff did not
designate his destination and made no
inquiry as to whether he was on a car
going through to Fairview, he could
collect no damages.

Declaration for Gold.

This telegram and answer are tanta-
mount to a platform declaration for
gold This is the view of the silver
men here. as we'll as of the gold men.
Hill and Sheehan do not deny it.
The eastern financiers will now be
amply justified in financing the demo-
cratic campaign. They will pay no
attention to the old silver and other
middle and far west states, Indiana
them without fail and with increased
majortes. They will focus their at
tention on the states which they must
have to win.
If, in addition to the solid south.
they can carry New York and the
states adjacent to it. and then Indiana
they will elect Parker. This is the
philosophy of the Parker nomination.
and the point from which his telegram
to Governor Sheehan must be viewed
The question might be asked, why
did the convention decide to send a
reply to the telegram? There was
nothing to decide the November cleo
ton in the nominating convention
The silver men in the convention felt
that they had been led into trap and
their opinions We're set forth in Bry-
ans speech of Saturday night. Many
Of the southern states which had voted
for Parker's nomination had a similar
feeling. But what We're they to do?
Refuse to answer the telegram. offend
Parker. and do fatal damage to their
cause in the impending contest? Not
at all. They voted by a four fifths
majority to swallow their displeasure
and make the best of the situation.
This story of the real meaning of
what took place in st. Louis Satur-
day afternoon and night should be read
by all who care to have a true per-
spective at the beginning of the cam
very exciting and the result to be
close. 1t is not my purpose to concede
that Roosevelt will be defeated but it
is my purpose to say that the repub-
leans are not to have any walkover.

music has no doubt been the means of

Modern experience has proved this
conclusively, and many instances may

Pythagoras commended music in the
treatment Of the insane, and Thales
when the pestilence ravaged Sparta.

mo CAUSE FOR GRATITUDE.
And Sturdy Scotchman Gave No Lip

The following example of a quaint,

lated in the Scottish American: The
season had been an exceptionally bad
one for farming, but in a church not
far from Arbroath the officials had re-
solved, according to custom, to hold
the annual harvest thanksgiving serv-
ice. 1t was noticed that on that par
ticular occasion Mr.. tombstone, a reg.
ular attendant and pillar Of the church
(whose crops had miserably failed)
was not in attendance. The minister
in the course Of the following week
met Mr.. tombstone and inquired of
him the reason of his absence from
church on such an important occasion.

Dogs are undoubtedly the most USE

They have the advantage also, that I'M

eat their fellows. Their weight is small,
and they can be easily carried on
light boats or on ice foes. AS the

expectation of dogs from Greenland,

PURE BLOOD.
Blood Impurities of Sprinstime-
Cause. Prevention
and Cure.

DR.. Hartman's medical lectures are
eagerly scanned by many thousand
readers.
One of the most timely and interest
ing lectures he ever delivered was mis-
recent lecture on the blood impurities
of spring.
The doctor said in substance that
every spring the blood is loaded with
the effete accumulations of winter, de-
ranging the digestion, producing slug
gishness of the liver, overtaxing the
kidneys, interfering with the action of
the bowels and the proper circulation
of the blood.
This condition of things produces
what is popularity known as spring
fever, spring malaria, nervous exhaus-
ton, that tired feeling, blood thicllen-
ing and other names.
Sometimes the victim is bilious, dys-
peptic and constipated; sometimes he
is weak, nervous and depressed; and

Nekoma, H.. April 18th.-Away
back in 1901 Mr.. Albert e. Larson of
this place was suffering with Kidney
disease and backache. The pain he
was called upon to endure was very
great and rendered his life almost a
burden to him. He heard Of Dodd's
Kidney Pills and began to use them
and almost at once he began to get
better. He had been unable to work
but Dodd's Kidney Pills soon made
him able to work again. He used the
remedy till he was completely cured.
He says he has grown stronger year
by year since he got rid of his old
trouble.
"Dodd's Kidney Pills certainly gave
me a complete and permanent cure
