than the success of the medical and sur

Der in General Oku's army, which con-
stitutes the left wing of the Marquis
Oyama's force on the Shakhe, constitute
a record which shames the western ma
lions. Only forty deaths from disease
out of a total of 24,642 cases! This does
not include the statistics for $500 cases
sent home to Japan. Only 1893 men came
down with typhoid fever, and 342 with

REMEMBER THE ALAMO.

Not satisfied with signing the bills for
the wholesale turning over of the State
to the gamblers and saloon men passed
by the legislature. John Sparks. Govern
or of Nevada. has gone still further and
vetoed the bill prohibiting the sale of
liquor along the government irrigation
canal while work is in progress. The
Governor has added the finishing touches
to Nevada's shame. In the language of
the creed he has done those things which
he z not to have done and left un-
done those things which he ought to
have done, and there is no help in him
none for the State of Nevada, at any
rate. If the Governor. in a fit of pique
at not being elected to the United States
Senate, had resolved to revenge himself
upon the defenseless people of this State
who had honored him with high position,
he could not have taken a course more
disastrous to their best interests.
No one was disposed to criticise him
severely for approving the the repeal OF
the u o'clock closing law. since it had
passed both houses of the legislature.
and in some parts of the State the early
closing law had always been a lead let
ter. But his veto of the irrigation bill Is
quite a different matter. Through it he
strikes at the material progress of Ne
vada as well as her moral welfare. He
upholds the dens of vice and murder
around Derby and Hazen and sets him.
self on the side of lawlessness and crime.
He does this arbitrarily and deliberate
ly-in opposition to a legislature which.
though corrupt, was not shameless
enough to oppose the federal govern
ment's efforts to clean out the dead
falls along the canal and make it safe
for honest men to work there. Sparks
has disappointed his friends. He has
shown himself a weak and incompetent
Governor.
If the federal government discontinues
the work of reclamation in Nevada the
State will nave no one to thank for it
but John Sparks.
If the decent element east of the
Rockies-the bona ide investor and
home seeker avoids Nevada as a place
unfit to raise a family or invest money
in-John Sparks. the Governor, will be
largely to blame. He shout have curbed
a reckless and venal legislature by the
wholesome exercise of the veto power,
but In place of that he chose to out

The legislature cannot adjourn toe
soon, nor Governor Sparks retire to pri-
vate life too quickly to suit the people

they say. their wives have cultivated

together and had pink tea themselves.
They then marched around to the var

Some of the wives did not take kindly
to the intrusion. but others admitted
that their husbands had just cause of
complaint. and promised better things

Work Often Strains Brings Kidney Dis
orders-Doans Kidney Pills Keep the Kidneys
Well and the Back Strong.

Any work that is a constant strain on
the back is certain TO injure the kidneys,
in time That is why desk workers,
farm hands, railroaders, teamsters bar
bers. painters, and workers in a hun
dred trades suffer so much from back
ache
Many tasks like housework, that do
not require great physical strength. are
very trying on the back and kidneys.
That IS WIZ backache is so common
among women. That Is why so many
women are unnaturaily weak and tired
and sleeDless.
When the kidneys are sick every exer-
tion sends a sharp stinging pain through
the loins. and for hour after hour there
will be a dull heavy, throbbing ache in
the small OF the back. You will feel
weary all the time and urinary troubles
may add to your misery.

sands of working men and women strong
backs for their daily work. This RENE
DIV helps the kidnevs to do their work 70
