HOUSE HITS "sYsIEM's BANK"
Standard Oil Crowds Scheme, Dodgin
Taxes, Revealed and Blocked.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March RE
cognizing after seven years, the iniqui-
ty of the contract made by Secretary
Gage with the National City or Stand
for the old custom-hous site, the house
has stricken out the annual rental OF
$13O,600, carried in the sundry civil
bill.
For seven years the contract mas
been denounced on both sides of the
house, yet the influence of the Stand
ard Oil bank was SO potent that it was
always carried in the BILL With the
Standard Oil under investigation, its
friends did not flock to it's support to-
day as in the past and the govern
ments gratuity was stricken off
the bill. OF course, it will be put back;
nobody expects the National City bank
to sit quietly by and lose $13O,600 a
year. If not returned to the bill by
the house it will be done in the SEN
ate or in conference.
Representative Sulzer led the fight
against the appropriation for rental of
the old custom-house for the next ifs
cal year. He moved to amend the bill
by striking out the paragraph.
Representative John Sharp Williams
the minority leader, said he intended
that the house should fully understand
the facts in the case. Mr.. Williams
TOM house property had never passed
to the National City bank, being re-
tanned at the express request of the
bank by the United States in order
that it might save the payment of
taxes to the city of New York.
This great government should not
lend itself to the despicable part of
aiding a corporation to defraud a mu-
nicipality of taxes due it, Mr.. Williams
said.
Chairman Hemeway made a final eff
fort to defend the contract and quit
ting in disgust, demanded q vote on
the Sulzer amendment.
On a viva voce vote, Representative
Sherman of New York, who was pre-
siding, declared the Sulzer amendment
lost On Mr.. Suffers demand for a di-
vision, Mr.. Sherman counted "A votes
for and "A against the amendment, al
though half a dozen men were shout
ing and waving their hands to be
counted in favor of the amendment.
Tellers were demanded by Messrs.
Sulzer and Williams. Then it was that
the members of the house struck
blow at the National City bank. This
vote resulted in SO in favor of the Sui
ger amendment to II against it, and the
gratuity was stricken from the bill.

Stomach PARALYSIS
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, properly
named, Is Paralysis of the Stomach.

Dyspepsia or Indigestion, properly
named, is Paralysis of the Stomach.
When you have water-brash, feel
sick at the stomach, have gas or wind
on it, or feel as though you had ball
or heavy weight in the pit of the
stomach after eating, and the nerves
and muscles Of that organ cease to
act and digest your food, that stop
page in the process of digestion, to
call it properly, is Paralysis of the
Stomach, and should be treated as
such. 1t is perfect folly to assist the
stomach with dyspepsia remedies and
stimulants to dissolve the undigested
food. You may get relief, but at the
next meal you suffer again. The
proper treatment is to build up the
worn out muscles and nerves of the
stomach so that it can do it's own
work without assistance, and not only
digest the food you eat to-day but to-
morrow and forever after; as is done,
by the use of DR.. Chase's Blood and
Nerve Food and Liver Food, which
have an immediate action on the
nerves and muscles, that control d.
gestion. The price of the Blood and
Nerve Food, so cents; the Liver Food
IS cents. Book free.

STATE FORESTS TO BE GUARDED
No Opposition in Either Senate or the
House to Irvings Measure.

OLYMPIA, March 3.-The Irvings
bill, creating the office of state fire for
est warden and providing means for
the protection of the states timber
lands from fire, has been considered
in the house committee on state, school
and granted lands.
Frank H. Lamb, of Hoquiam, au-
thor of the measure, appeared before
the committee to urge it's favorable
consideration. He submitted statistics
showing that annually the state suffers
loss amounting to hundreds of thou
sands of dollars, through destructive
forest fires. The bill originally carried
an appropriation of $4,000 to pay the
state fire warden and his deputies in
each county.
1t was agreed to reduce this sum and
it is probable that when the bill comes
from the committee on appropriations
$4,000 will be asked.
The house committee will report the
bill with the recommendation that it be
placed on the calendar. No opposition
developed to the measure and it is
probable that it will pass both houses.
Senator Rands has introduced a like
bill for the senate.

He Is Now a Strictly Sober Man.


Portland, Ore, April rs, 1904.
Our druggist here asked me to write
you about "TRIB". My son took "TRIB"
about 10 months ago and has been a
sober and industrious man since. He
has taken the cure,
but commenced drinking again soon
after. It cost him $3.50 to take the
- cure and $3.50 to
take 'aTRIB." He says "TRIB" is by
far the best cure of the two. He has
sold many treatments for the druggists
since he took "TRIB."
Wishing you success, am your

Q MISCELLANY
Jew. In the United states.

According to the american Jewish
Year Book" just published, there are
1,41S,S13 Jews in the United States,
and OF these about 100000 are resi-
dents Of the state of New York. In
the year ended June 80, 1905, 11S,419
Jewish immigrants came to this coun-
try, of whom more than 100000 landed
in New York. For many years this
class Of immigrants has shown a de-
cided preference for New York city,
and consequently nearly one-half of
the whole Jewish population of the
country lives in the metropolis, which
is the largest Jewish city in the world.
The statistician credits New York city
with about 10000 Jewish inhabitants,
which is more than the entire Jewish
population of the German empire.
There are fewer than 100000 Jews in
the British empire and fewer than
100000 in Turkey. In Palestine there
are $4,000 Jews, about as many as
there are in the new Jewish district in
Harlem, and there are fewer Jews in
Egypt today than there are in the
Eighth ward of the city Of New York.
From 1881 to July, 1905, 945,8 43 Jews
emigrated to this country, and of these
one-eighth came last year. Two coun-
tries have more Jews than the United
States-Russia, 5,215,SO5, and Austria
Hungary, 2,076,37S.

company had brought against Heinze.
When Clark made his alliance with the

remove his name. from the bond. which
request the supreme court denied.
Shortly afterward a suit was com.
.menced against Heinze in the supreme
court In which he was obliged to fur.
niah a bond foi 100000. Clark was
able by his influence to prevent Heinss
from getting any Montana men to fur
nish this bond.
Great was the Joy in the Amalgamat
ed camp that night. The System"
believed that Heinze could not pos
sibly get n 5ynd for such an immense
sum end. as Heinze's policy Of expan
sion had involved every dollar of his
available capital. they stood back with
Joyous hearts to await the crash. The

what Is Electricity,

Here on the threshold of the new CEN
fury we are confronted with the ques-
ton "What Is electricity" and the an
swer implied by the question seems to
demand a something which could be
described by n who knew enough. as
would describe some new mineral
or gas or thing. Some eminent sclen-
tiic men are befogged by the question
say it is some ultimate unknowable
thing and hopeless as an inquiry. If IL
be a something it must be described
by its constant properties as other
things are. If it be unlike everything
else then it cannot be described by
terms that apply to anything else. A
glowing coal is an incandescent solid,
q flame Is an incandescent gas, but
neither glow o fame exists apart
from the matter that exhibits the phe
nomenon. Both are conditions Of par.
