EIGHT HOUR LAW SUSTAINED.
Supreme Court Rsverses Itself on Eight Hour
Law on Public Work.

Law on Public Work.
The supreme court has handed down
an opinion sustaining the right of cities
and the state to fix the number of hours
in days labor on public works.
This reverses the opinion heretofore
filed in the case Of Seattle vs. Smyth,
reported III % Washington 327.
The reversal of the prior opinion is
based on the ground that the case now
before the court is susceptible of appeal
to the United States supreme court, and
in view Of the fact that the United
States supreme court in recent case of
Atkin vs.. Kansas, passed squarely on
this question and upheld the constitu.
tionality of such lave, the supreme court
Of this state yields allegiance to the
doctrine announced by the higher court.
The United States supreme court de-
cision is discussed at length and the ar.
guments found 10 the opinion of the
court are apparently looked upon with
favor by the court of this state. At
tention is called to the fact that in the
case of Seattle Va. Smyth . short per.
curiam opinion was handed down and
that the briefs submitted to the cour {
contained no citations Of authorities ON
this point. The ruling Of the court was
largely incidental to other points given
more prominence.

Do Not Suppress A Cough.

When you have cough do not try to
suppress it, but remove the cause. The
cough is only symptom of some disease,
and the disease is what you should cule,
then the cough will stop Of itself. The
most common cause of coughing is a
cold. Anodynes will promptly suppress
the cough, and preparations containing
chloroform, opium. etc.. are used for that
purpose but they do not cure the cold.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy on the
other hand does not suppress the cough,
but relieves it by removing from the
throat and lungs the mucus which OBJ.
structed the breathing and allaying
the irritation and tickling in the throat.
1t also opens the secretions and effect.
ually and permanently cures the cold as
we'll as the cough. For sale by All

OUTLOOK
FOR THE COMING YEAR Is VERY
BRIGHT.
A Splendid Business Prospect for the Year 1905.
Many Possibilities for the Pacific Northwest.
The Year Will Witness the Establishment Of
Many New Enterprises.

In the history Of trade on the Pacific
Goa t there has seldom been year which
has been so characterized by steady
progress as that OF 1904, says the West
Coast Trade. Disastrous booms with
their consequent depressions have been
experienced by the western states and
territories. and the boom period is looked
upon with almost as much dread and
fearful expectation as the advent Of a
plague. Indeed, it is plague in one
sense of the word, and the microbe of
reckleseness and risk is more rampant
just before one of these false imitation
periods than at any other time.
The year just closed has not been such
one. 1t has been characterized by
steady growth in all lines OF trade and
business. 1t has signalled the advent of
many new enterprises, and has witnessed
the swelling OF material prosperity
throughout the entire Sound country.
The close OF it finds the merchants and
business men of all classes more firmly
established and in better condition than
they were when it began.
With this retrospect, we turn our eyes
to the front once more and view with
keen anxiety the approaching cycle of
1905. Business has been good-is-good
The reasonable conclusion to which
everything points is that it is going to
be better.
With the upbounded resources, the
possible, though undeveloped industries
and the sharp and determined spirit of
progress which is discernible in the in
habitants of the Sound country, there is
no good reason why the coming year
should not see the establishment of
many new enterprises and the:constant
and sound industrial growth of those
which are already here.
Manufacturing. packing, shipbuildine
and host Of minor plants are already in
operation. Some will be consolidated
and economy will be conserved. We do
not look for any sudden increase in the
present development. We believer. that
it is going to be as we hope-persistent,
determined and consistent. Such growth
is needed and will be Of inestimable ad-
vantage to the country. 1t is to the in.
terest Of every man here to see that this
is the policy he adopts. The results Of
such action will be most advantageous.
Enthusiasm without lashness, con-
servatism without fear; bravery without
foolishness, caution without cowardice-
this should be the motto adopted by the
Pacific Northwest.
