DANGER IN DELAY.
Kidney Diseases Are Too Dan
gerOus for Columbia PeO-
pie to Neglect.

The great danger of kidney troubles
is that they get firm hold before the
sufferer recognizes them. Health is
gradually undermined. Backache
headache, nervousness, lameness, sore
ness, lum bago, urinary troubles, dropsy,
diab and Bright's disease follow in
merciless succession. Don't neglect
your kidneys. Cure the kidneys with
the certain and safe remedy, Doan's
Kidney Pills, which has cured people
right here in Columbia.
RI. Jeter, carpenter, of East Ninth
street in the grove, says: II had kid
new trouble for four or five years, al

aching across my loins which made me

Boston, March 19.-Local political

from men close to Washington's af-

ch private correspondence received
from the national capital, which has
it that President Roosevelt is laying
plans which have for their purpose
the nomination of Speaker Cannon for
the presidency to succeed Mr.. Roose-

of Secretary Taft, whose presidential

TO POLICE CHINESE EMPIRE.
America and Great Britain to Assist
in so Doing.


Washington. March 19.-Japan will
police China, and the expenses incur
red will be shared by the United
States and Great Britain according to
al unnamed diplomat at Picking, who
has been writing letters to Washing
ton regarding conditions in the orient.
On the subject of policing China this
diplomat says:
1T has been decided by Great Brit.
ain and the United States to let Japan
carry out her outlined plan of polio
inS China. This policing. which will
be undertaken by Japanese army Of
ficers, who, it is proposed, shall be in
command of both Japanese and Chin
csc soldiers, like any possible active
field service, will be jointly shared in
Financially by the United States and
Great Britain, the two leading sup,
rcrters of the Mikado. while France
and Italy will be allowed to contri
butte according to the benefits deriv-
ed by them by the protection of their
people or interest there AS you see,
the agreement is very simple and it
is wise one.
1T is said that an additional clause
in this agreement gives Japan the
right to ask at the critical moment
help Of the United States and Great
Britain, which will be divided: Great
Britain, navy, United States, army.
This conclusion was reached because
England can use her navy to better adj
vantage than any troops she could
send there, while the United States,
having a remarkable and dependable
military force in the Philippines could
give valuable help.
China, in this proposed national pc,
Icing, will be divided into several dis
tr!cts and each district will be divided
into subdistricts. foreign, pro-foreign,
| aEtitoreign, Indifferent. According to
the spirit of the people of any one
suhdistrict, the policing will be scat
tered. This will give guard common
surate with the area to be guarded
and under the able direction of the
Japanese officers, in whom the foreign
countries pledged to support this plan
have the fullest confidence, it is hop
ed China will become a pacific empire
and be allowed to enjoy by it's own
PEOPLE the benefits of peace and hon
est int recourse with the powers.
Furthermore the agreement is
practically perfect, because it is Just
Japan accepts the nominal but great
responsibility of it's own free will but
at the same time leaving some of the
responsibility to the foreign powers
parties to the agreement.
Japan wants liberty of commerce
in China, and the powers in exchange
TO" her part in maintaining the inter
national equilibrium at this end O
the earth, will grant her all the priv
leses of trade and industry and politi
cal intercourse with China that sh,
demands, having unquestionable faitl
in her and being sure that whateve
Japan does even to help herself
will never be at the expense of
friendly nation"

THE FOREST RESERVES.
Order From Forester in Regard to
Grazing Trespass.

The United States department of
agriculture mas issued a circular let
ter TO officers in charge of forest re-
serves relative to grazing permits,
which is of great interest to stockmen
iLasmuch as the department has de-
telmined to permit the use of the re
serves in full capacity consistent with
their other uses. The order is as fol
lows:
To Forest Officers in Charge:
Permits to Craze upon the forest re-
serves will be issued to the full ca
pacity of the reserves consistent with
their other uses. Stock owners to
whom these permits are issued, will
he required TO pay a reasonable fee
for the grazing privilege. For these
reasons the intrusion Of unpermitted
stock upon the forest reserves will
not only damage reserve interests by
GNergrazing the range. but will also
mfiict great injustice upon the permit
ices who are paying for the full for
age capacity of the reserves.
/ Therefore, persons who allow their
stock to drift and Craze on the forest
reserves without a permit whether
they do SO Intentionally or otherwise,
will be regarded as trespassers and
will lose all right TO permitted priv
ile&es of any kind upon forest re-
serves
For this reason YOU will refuse to
consider the applications of such per-
sons for special privileges and inform
this office Of such applications in each
case. Please inform them also that
ture. they will have lost any prefer
ence in grazing permits to which they
might otherwise have been entitled
/ through priority in occupation of the
raj. ge.
| You will with due regard to good
public policy, continue to drive and
exclude unpermitted stock from the
! forest reserves as diligently as is com
patible with the performance of your
other necessary duties.
OF course. if any person intention
ally drives unpermtted stock on &
forest reserve, he will be liable tt
prosecution for trespass and suit fo
damages; and if you have evidence
that any person is about to commi
such trespass, you will immediatel,
ask the United States attorney to in
stitute proceedings to restrain him b,
injunction.
Inform the public fully of the allow
facts and the reason therefor. Ais.
make it known generally that, becaus,
of the charge which is made for fores
eserve privileges. the forest servic,
is actively advocating the passage o
a bill to grant 5 per cent of the gros
receipts from forest reserves to tn
counties in which the reserves ar
situated, to represent any possible los
CT taxes through the creation of sal
reserves
