FACIAL PARALYSIS
Nervous Distortion Of Face Cured by
Or. Williams Pink Pills.

Ut Vvuu0tsbS GsuN Vu1Ss
What appears to be slight nervous
attack may be the forerunner of a severe
disorder. No nervous sufferer should
neglect the warning symptoms, but
should see that the starved nerves are
nourished before the injury to the deli
cate organism has gone to all extent that
renders cure difficult matter. The
nervesreceive their nourishmentt through
the blood, the same as every other part
of the body, and the best nerve tonic and
food is DR.. Williams Pink Pills. The
experience of Mr.. Harry Bemis, Of
Truthville, Washington county, N. Y,
substantiates this.
"I had been feeling badly for long
time" said Mr.. Bemis, land in the
early part of September, 1902, I was COM
PEELED to quit work on account of my i'll
health. My trouble was at first ex-
treme nervousness, then my sight be.
came affected and I consulted an oculist
who said Twas suffering from paralysis.
He treated me for some time, but got
no benefit. I tried another doctor and
again failed to obtain any relief. My
nervousness increased. Slight noises
would almost make me wild. My mouth
was drawn so could scarcely eat and
one eye was affected so I could hardly
see. I had very little use Of my limbs,
in fact was almost a complete wreck.

That is because I followed my wifes ad.
vice and took DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
She had used the same remedy herself,
with the most gratifying results and she
persuaded me to try them when it ap.
peared that the doctors were unable to
help me. They acted very surely in my
case; my face came back into shape and

Clark objects to Coolies Working on
Panama Canal.
Washington.-The house on Friday
adopted an amendment abrogating
the eight-hour law for alien labor in
the Panama canal zone. The Demo-
Gratis combatted the amendment. The
vote stood SO to IS. The debate pre-
ceding the vote developed difference
of opinion as to whether the Chinese
exclusion act extends to the canal
zone.
Filibustering tactics were used by
the minority in efforts to defeat the
proposed amendments, but after half
a dozen attempts to obtain a rollcall
on various motions had failed, the
house went into committee of the
whole and the eight-hour amend
ment was at once offered under the
rule.
Mr. Clark of Missouri gave notice
that he should Immediately prepare a
bill extending the Chinese exclusion
act to the isthmus of Panama, "and |
will make it extend to Japanese
coolies, too" he declared, because
all coolies look alike to me, and will
make you get out into the open if you
intend to dig that canal with China,

Seattle, Wash.-W. T. Pearce, as

lost steamer Valencia, blames the
United States government for the
loss of life on the steamer. He said.
"The government is well nigh crimi-

have provided for government tug,
located near the mouth of the Strait
OF Fuca, in touch of telegraph wires
and cables, for just such emergencies

JAS. R. Low
FOR ASSESSOR

If there is any county Office in
the gift of the people which touches
more directly than any other the
harden laid upon the taxpayer, the
office is chat of county assessor.
The wideawake voter should see to
it that the official who fixes the
amount he shall contribute to the
public treasury is surrounded by
the properly balanced influences,
that he is a man of sterling integ-
rity, of broad views, of accurate
knowledge, of clear thought and of
answering allegiance to duty to
all owners of property without ref
erence to any class or station. Cor
porate power should not success
fully threaten him, personal en-
treaty should not bias him, special
consideration should not corrupt
him. The task of levying assess
ment on property at it's best is a
thankless one; it's financial reward
is small; it's meaning to the people
is great; it's chances for error are
manifold it's chief reward is the
satisfaction of a duty well dis
charged. A weak assessor, or one
dominated by a desire to serve the
interests Of corporations or large
holders of property, is an abomina-
ton and menace to the public.
The man who would be an assessor
should stand four square to every
wind that blows, whether it be a
gale from money centers or an in
sistent zephyr from the small prop
erty holder. He should be able to
withstand threats and appeals alike,
with a motive only for absolute
fairness and impartiality. He
should be self poised, undeterred
and aggressive to rectify wrongs.
Such a man the democratic pri-
maries selected in James r. Low.
His nomination came about through
no clique, through no concentrated
effort on the part of any body of
citizens or taxpayers. He was
named by the ballots of the rank
and file of his party. There was no
axe to grind for an opposing candi-
date, no scores to settle. He was
chosen on his merits as a citizen.
Mr.. Low has been a resident of
this section of the state for IS
years. Formerly he was engaged
in the general merchandise bust
ness in the Palouse country. He
was county clerk for the years 1897
and 1898. Since then he has been
in the cigar business. Of his atti-
tude toward the duties of the office
of assessor, Mr.. Low writes:
Il am not candidate of any cor
poration or special interest. Every
citizen will get square DEAL

HAVE SOCIALISTS

SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. 1870
cialists all over the United States

the right Of the former to use the
streets for free speech.
Wholesale arrests have been
made, much agitation has been

A test case will settle the point
that has been raised at one time

Many prominent men have been

maker. Ease and safety of travel
on the highways are on his Shout
ders. Whether he does his work
well, whether he practices economy,
whether he knows his business, are
matters of deep concern to the tax
payer and citizen. He should be a
man to whom years of experience
have given ability to design and to
do. All this, however. within the
limits placed around him by a
board of county commissioners Let
him make a fault and see how quick
the commissioners are to shift re-
sponsibility.

nominee for county surveyor, has

man, in every way fitted for the
work of county surveyor.
