= SAFE AND RELIABLE.

That the roots Of many native plants,
growing wild In our American forests,
possess remarkable properties for the cure
OF human maladies Is well proven. Even
the untutored Indian had learned the
curative value OF some OF these and
taught the early settlers their uses. The
Indian never liked work SO he wanted his
sQuaw to get well as soon as possible that
she might do the work and let him hunt
Therefore, he dug rpapoosc root for her,
for that was their great remedy for fe-
male weaknesses. Dr. Pierce uses the
~Favorite Prescription" skillfully COM
bincd with other agents that make it
more effective than any other medicine in
curing all the various weaknesses and
painful arrangements peculiar to women.
Many afflicted women have been saved
from the operating table and the sur
gcon's knife by the timely use of Doctor
Pierce's Fayoritc Prescription. Tender
ness over the lower pelvic region, with
backache. spells of dizziness. faintncss,
bearing down pains or distress should not
go unheeded. A course of "Favorite Pre-
scription"' will work marvellous benefit
In all such cases. and generally effect a
permanent cure il persisted in for a rea-
sOnable length OF time. The wFavorite
Prescription is harmless agent, being
wholly prepared from native medicinal
roots, without drop of alcohol in its
make up, whereas all other medicines,
put up for sale through druggists for
woman's peculiar ailments. contain largo
quantities of spirituous liquors. which
are very harmful, especially to delicate
women. "Favorite Prescription" con-
tains neither alcohol nor harmful habit

printed on each bottle wrapper. 1t Is q

health and strength in particular to the

COURT MUST DECIDE.
c. L. Heitnan Takes up Matter
of Kootenai's Representation.

G. L. Hoffman, on Thursday morn
ing, returned from Boise where he
has been on business before the Su-
preme court and state land board,
and while there, In conjunction with
the attorney general, brought up
some interesting questions in connec-
tion with the legislative apporton
ment law of the state. Before the
Kootenai county division act was
passed, legislative apportionment
bill was introduced in the last legs.
lature, which passed the house, but
was held up in the senate on account
of the Kootena division bill. This
act gave Koutenai county five repre-
sentatiycs and one senator. After
the division bill passed, the ..ppor-
tionment bill was abandoned and a
new apportionment bill introduced
and passed which gave to the coun-
ties Of Lewis and Clark one senator
and two representatives each. The
division bill was declared un;onstitu-
tional and the question now arises,
under which apportionment act will
the legislature be elected. A some
what similar condition of affairs arose
In 1892. In 1891. a new apportion-
ment of the legislature was enacted;
but prior thereto an act was passed
creating the counties OF Alta and
Lincoln out OF the old counties Of
Alturas and Logan, which division
act was afterwards declared uncon-
stitutional by the supreme court.
! The case was brought by j. M. BAL
lentlne against Wiley, then Governor
OF the state, for a writ of mandamus
which involved the determination OF
the constltutionality Of the legisla-
tive apportionment act OF 1891. The
supreme court, in the case OF Ballen-
tine VS.. Wiley, reported In 3 Idaho,
496-509, held that the apportionment
act of 1891 was unconstitutional and
void because it included the counties
OF Alta and Lincoln, which the su.
preme court decided had no legal ex.
istence.
There are some facts and circum.
stances which make the Kootena
county division act somewhat differ
ent from the act creating the coun
ties of Alta and Lincoln, and Mr.
Heitman's intention is to bring pro-
ll.ceedings In the supreme court ant
attempt to obtain FOR Kootenai coun
ty six members Of the legislature in
stead Of four as under the old appor
tiOnment act. 1t Is conceded on al
J hands that KoOtenai cannot be de-
prived OF representation in the legis
lature; but the fight will be made tt
obtain for Kootenai increased repre-
. sentation instead of the same repre-
sentation which it had two years ago
Kootenai county, by every rule o
right and justice, by reason of he
population and her vote at the cleo
, ton of 1904, Is entitled to at least ST.
meml ers of the legislature. TIL
matter also affects Ada and Ne
Perez counties, as each of thes
counties, under the apportionmen
law Of 1905, Is entitled to five mem
beers of the house, an increase of on
) each. This Is G matter of great i'm
portance, and the representative mel
, of all political parties should unit
in the effort to secure for Kootena
county the largest representation
possible under the law. The muddl
!, is additional evidence OF the absurdi
t ty of the division bill when wa
passed in 1905.
