Healthy Mothers.

Mothers should always keep in good
bodily health. They owe it to their
children. Yet it is no unusual sight to
see a mother, with babe in arms, cough
ing violently and exhibiting all the
symptoms of consumptive tendency.
And why should this dangetous condi-
tion exist, dangerous alike to mother
and child, when DIR. Boschee's German
Syrup would put stop to it at once?
No mother should be without this old
and tried remedy in the house for its
timely use will promptly cure any lung,
throat or bronchial trouble in herself
or her children. The worst cough or
cold can be speedily cured by German
Syrup; SO can hoarseness and cOnges-
ton of the bronchial tubes. 1t makes
expectoration easy, and gives instant
relief and refreshing rest to the cough
racked consumptive. New trial bottles
25c large size. 75c. At all druggists.

The Democratic and other self
styled reform parties are alright
to advocate reforms, but when
it comes 70 action the Republic
can party does things. When
the time gets ripe for new de-
partures to be made in govern
mental affairs they take the ini-
tiative and do it. Agitators are
alright in their place, but they
seldom accomplish much. At
present there is a great senti-
ment in favor of municipal owner
ship throughout the United States
which will eventually amount to
something. The Democratic par
ty, through w. J. Bryan, is.quick
to follow this up and advocate
government ownership. 1t re-
mains to be seen whether or not
the Democrats, in this, like most
other things, are not premature
and will ,expend their force agi-
tating before the time is ripe TO,
action.

There is no hitch as yet in the
Russian and Japan peace negotia-
tions, simply because that stage
of the proceedings have not as
yet been reached. While it is
hoped that peace will prevail no
one can imagine that either of
the warning nations will concede
the rights of the other. Then
too, either, are liable to want con-
cessions that the other powers
would not allow even if it could
be arranged satisfactorily be-
tween Russia and Japan.

American Released From
Mexican Prison.

After much delay the Mexican gov
ernment has at last decided to pardon
Mac Stewart, the American sent to
prison in Chihuahua ten years ago for
for killing Mexican policeman. The
order for Stewards pardon reached
Chihuahua from the City of Mexicola last
Saturday afternoon. In accordance with
the terms of pardon he must forever
stay out of Mexico.
Stewart, who was prominent ex-
Confederate, was at the head of an
American mining enterprise when he
killed the policeman. He was driving
through the streets of Parral, singing
"Dixie" and shot the policeman be-
cause he interfered. Stewart will go
to Texas to make his future home.

At the recent Democratic pow
WOW" in Denver it is plain to be
seen that things are not running
as smoothly for the Patterson
combination as they might be.
The, less radical element, with
Bob Speer as their leader, seem
to dominate the party, if the
recent meeting is anything to
judge by. However, the combina-
tion of politicians that stand
with "Old Perplexity" are not
the kind to give up without a
struggle. This may result in a
split that is likely to break the
Democratic ranks.

PURE MOUNTAIN WATER.

1t is not often that Colorado
valley town, especially one that
has SO many varied resources as
Delta, is SO situated that pure
mountain water is available. We
not only have mountain water,
but the best that the Rocky
mountains afford. Our water
comes direct from the springs
the source of the stream from
wich it is taken and allows
no drainage which can in any
way contaminate it's waters.
Delta people do not appreciate
it's worth to the same extent as
do those who come here from
other places for short stays.
About the first thing that a visi-
tor praises when coming here is
the water and you need not think
that they forget to sound its
praises after leaving.
This water that comes down
from where the pure ozone fills
it with the health giving qualities
is fast making Delta attractive
to those who desire a pleasant
place to live. Only the other
day a travelling man was heard
to say that he intended to bring
his family here to remain on ac-
count of our excellent drinking
water.

Want Feeding Law Repealed.

A movement has started to repeal
the twenty-eight hour law a fedora
law which was passed by conject Is to
prevent cruelty to stock IN shipment
and compels unloading at leafs every
twenty-eight hours for the purpose of
feeding and watering.
The law was passed through the
humane societies of the country and any
effort to repeal or even modify it will
be bitterly fought by the same element.
The arguments advanced by the stock
men for the repeal of the law is that
the effect of the enforcement of the law
causes livestock more suffering and in
jury than would result from the con-
finement on the cars. Another argu-.
ment raised isthat frequently the en-
forcement of the law makes a stop
necessary when the cattle ard within
few miles of their destination. A rep
resenatiye of the humane society saws:
The real reason stockman object to
this law is that it costs money to feed
and water stock in transit, besides de-
laying the shipment. They want to
rush the animals through without re-
gard to whether they suffer from hun
ger or thirst or not, failing to realize
that humane treatment is. in the end
the most profitable.
On the other hand, thy stockmen hold
that the law is both unreasonable and
unnecessary. They claim that stock
men as rule are humane to their stock
and that there sufficient laws without
the transit measure to prevent cruel
treatment. Under the operations of
the twenty-eight hour law they claim
that in one instance where animals are
saved from suffering, in ten instances
they would suffer more through the
frequent unloading and loading.

The attendance at the Lewis and
Clark Exposition at Portland, is re-
markably good. From the very first
day the average was above 10000, and
on some days there have been 10000

up throughout the season the Exposi-
tion cannot fail to be financial sue

1t is altogether likely that the

The recent movement of Rus

1t is quite evident from the

the present unprec edented onslaught
against the Jews. In it's rage and SUI
pineness over the spread of liberal ideas
it has sought to divert the attention of
the nation, by bloody demonstration
against the popular scapegoat. Its
own hated cause menaced to the verge
Of extinction, it did not hesitate to in
terpose distraction which meant I'M
told misery and absolute destruction to
so many of the empires most lawabid-
ding subjects. Anything was prefer
able to the triumph of Liberalism and
the further humiliation of the house of
Romanoff and its satellites. The an
cient shibboleth, "The Jews are the
enemies of the Russian nation" was
revived and employed with terrible eff
fectiveness.
That the autocracy has struck it's
final envenomed blow against Liberal
ism over the shoulders Of the peace
able, war detesting Jews is no longer a
matter for mere speculation. The party
that has done such a deadly injury to
these inoffensiye aliens works through
an organization known in Russia as the
Chornaya Sotnya (Black Hundred). 1t
is a secret and extremely powerful or
ganization, and it has numerous mem
bers in all large Russian towns. Its
sole object, to put it briefly, is to stifle
the cause of liberty. The expulsion of
the Jews from the empire or their per-
secution as long as they remain is no
| part of their undertaking. 1t may even
| be affirmed Of them that they cherish
| less ennity for the Jews than for any
| other people of the empire outside their
own class. They would rather have
| the blood Of one Liberal than that of a
| hundred Jews.
The Black Hundred is hated and
dreaded by every lover of liberty II
has happened more than once that a
member of the society caught red hand
| ed has been dipped in kerosene and sci
on fire. The members names are kept
as secret as possible, and no man dares
to avow himself. The upper hierarchy
| and the regular clergy are represented
