BAD COMpLExIONS

II abused my stomach, my blood goH
out of order and then my face broke ont
with pimples and boils, says T. e. Rob->
ertson, of 1917 Addison street, Washing
ton, Pa. "This was over two years ago.
My stomach was in bad shape. After
eating I would have to rest awhile or l
would suffer the most severe pains in
my stomach. On arising would often
be SO dizzy that could hardly stand up.
The slightest exertion would start my
back aching so that I often had to sit
down and rest awhile. At times ex-
perienced pain around the heart which
alarmed me but which I suppose came
from my stomach trouble.
II began to break out ON the face with
pimples and later with boils which con-
fined me to the house week or more at
time. One day I saw DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People advertised in a
pamphlet which was leftat the door and
thought would give them trial. I
took several boxes of the pills before all
the pimples and ,boils left me, but am
now glad to say that my blood is good.

longer have the head and stomach
troubles have described. am very
grateful for what DR.. Williams Pink Pills
have done for me and have recon-
mended them and always will advise
those who are suffering from bad blood
or stomach trouble to try them"
Ifyou want good health you must have
good blood. Bad blood is the root of most
common diseases like an@mia, rheuma-
tism, sciatica, neuralgia, St.Vitus' dance,
nervousness, indigestion, debility, par
tial paralysis and locomotor ataxia.

Oppose inspection - Drastic 49,.
Necessary to Curb Them.

Washington, June 2. - Pres;do..
Roosevelt decided today to make nuh
lie the report of Professor Charles
Neill, commissioner of labor. and
James B. Reynolds, OF New York con.
corning the condition of the meat mach
ing establishments as they found tbau
ON an inquiry instituted by the pres;.
dent, primarily for his own informss
ton. The report will be accompanied
by special message of Presiden.
Roosevelt, in which he will take stronn
grounds in favor of immediate and
drastic legislation to correct the evils
which are exposed in the report.
The President had not expected to
make public the report OF Mr.. Neill and
Mr.. Reynolds. He felt that it's publ.
cation might injure the meat packing
industries in this country. Primarily
the information contained in the ranort
WAS to be obtained to be used az basis
for the legislation proposed in tka
amendment to the agricultural apuro.
priation bill by Senator Beveridee Of
Indiana. He did not imagine tbera
would be serious opposition 10 prcpo.
lsition to afford inspection of such meats
prepared for domestic consumption as
is afforded to meat products intended
! for shipment abroad. The meat pack.
ers, however, rose in arms against the
Beverage amendment, being insistept
in opposition to it, not only in princi.
pie, but on the question of paying for
the proposed inspection.
r p esentative Wadsworth, OF New
York, called on the president TODAY.
He is chairman OF the agricultural COM
mittee OF the house, to which the pro-
posed amendment will be referred. He
indicated to the president the intention
Of the committee to consider the
amendment proposed by Mr.. Beverage
and adopted practically without diyis-
ion by the senate, and to prepare
substitute for it that would "be fair to
II parties concerned"
The attitude of Mr.. Wadsworth was
not satisfactory to the president. In
view of the facts reported to him by
Mr.. Neill and Mr.. Reynolds, the pres-
dent is of the opinoin that immediate
legislation of drastic nature is neces-
sary to cure the evils which have been
developed. He decided, therefore, to
make public the NeiIl Reynolds report.

PASS DISEASED MEAT.
Special Commissioner Reynolds Saw
1t Done in Chicago.

Chicago, May 30.-How "a out OF 81
diseased cattle were "passed'' under
the eyes oil James B. Reynolds, one OF
President Roosevelt's special commits
sioners appointed to investigate condi-
tions at the atockyards, was divulged
today by man who accompanied Rey-
,olds to the plant of the Standard
Strengthening company. This scene die
tated in large measure the report OF
the commissioners and brought about
the inspection bill now before congress
Mr.. Reynolds reached the slaughter
house shortly after o'clock. Unknown
to those in the place, be made an ex.
animation of the cattle in the pen.
There were 81 diseased cattle standing
in the pens when he visited the place.
Without exception, the Jumps" in
their jaws, according to the testimony
of one who was with him, were from
the size OF a cocoanut to that of peck
measure. Mr.. Reynolds watched these
cattle brought to the killing beds and
slaughtered.
Elbow many of them we're condemned
on post-mortem Inspection" he asked
the city inspector, after all had been
killed.
"Seven," replied the inspector.
The commissioner turned away sick
ened.
"What becomes of the products OF
these vats?" asked the commissioner oil
Cornelius Short, manager of the
slaughter house.
"The grease goes to- the butterine
man and other users OF grease, the
solids to the fertilizer
"What is done with the meat that
passes?" was the next question.
"There are two firms in Chicago
that make business of buying it, and
it is sold to certain restaurants and
hotels"
There was not dozen in that
bunch of 81" said the commissioner to
his companion, as he walked out of the
place, "that could rightly have beer
passed."
The Standard Strengthening company
was organized during the administra.
ton of Governor John P. Altgeld, who
compelled it's establishment so that the
handling Of diseased meat could be
centralized and thus better controlled

LOSS WILL BE HEAVY.
Heavy Rainfall In Eastern Oregon and
Washington DESTROYED Crops.

Pendleton, Or, June /. $500 Umatilla
county has lost by conservative esti-
mate at least 81 500, 900 by reason Of
the food. 1t lie impossible to give de-
tailed figures, for the waters In Mckay
creek and Birch creek, in the Milton
country, at Weston and the Umatilla
river are raging. and the fields are still
flooded and out OF sight. On every
hand. however, as the water recedes,
are left fields OF alfalfa coated thick and
weighted down with slime and silt. 1t
Ia worthless waste, and must not
only be cut down but taken IRON the
fields before other crops can be grown.
Practically all oil the alfalfa crops OF
Mckay creek are ruined. The terri
tory varies from 100 feet to quarter Of
mile In width and is from ! b to ~
miles In length. All of the bridges are
out, the water, though falling, is still
raging and no definite information can
be secured.
At Weston the town was damaged to
the extent OF IS, 900 and the same
amount was lost In the immediate vi.
entity. In "a hours 81 inches OF rain
fell, while on Weston mountain the
fall WAS from to 10 iuches. -Four
out of seven bridges are washed out
and three small store buildings we're
washed into the river.
The greatest damage, perhaps, 10 due
to stock losses in the mountain ranges
Thousands OF sheep had just been
shesred and were unprotected. The
storm swept into the mountains with
an advance guard OF cold fog, followed
by heavy rain and snow. In the lace
of this blizzard the herders in many
instances deserted their hocks, leaving
2, 900 and 3 900 head to their fate
Reports beginning to come in tell OF
disaster, though everything Ia unau.
thentic as yet. Hemphill lost his en-.
tire band OF 3 900 sheep. j. E. Smith
lost 900 and Gus Laiontaine 1000.
Douglas Belts herder left. 8, 900 to take
car OF themselves.
At Milton the loes will reach into
the thousands. The orchards are
flooded and the fruit trees covered with
mud and slime. The alfalfa fields are
masses OF sediment, as are the straw
berries, but the latter will not all be
lost. Il Ia hard to put an estimate on
Millions damage, because many oil the
fields will be saved. The estimate oil
damage Ia made by those who are IA
miliar with the country and who know
the area and the value of the crops. No
actual figures are as yet forthcoming.
In Peudleton the loss will be great
on account of the stocks OF merchandise
flooded In the cellars, and the broken
levee and consequent flooding of homes
A conservative estimate Of the damage
here is $50, 900.

Portland in Time.
Washington, June Judge Gould
having overruled the motion to post
pone the trial of Representative Her
mann in this city until the October
term of the court, the case will come
up for hearing by or before June 10,
unless the trial of the pending post
office case continues longer than now
anticipated.
1t is believed the trial of Hermann
will consume only three to five days,
and, in the opinion of the court, the
witnesses who will be summoned to ap-
pear against Hermann here can give
their testimony and then reach Port
land in time to testify in the land-fraud
trials, which begin there June 81.
II he can possibly arrange it, Francis
J. Heney will come to Washington to
prosecute Hermann, and Immediately
upon the conclusion of this trial will go
to Portland to take up the land cases
before Judge Hunt. II Heney is I'M
able to come to Washington, the prose-
cution of Hermann will rest in the
hands of District Attorney Baker. II
now appears that no further postpone
ment of this case is possible.
