on the road to patents. 1 visited Her.
mann in his office during the three
days they were going through the diff
ferent divisions, and when they final
ly reached the last division he took
up a document and said to me:
Mr.. Puter, you are down and
out; the only thing you can do now
is to go back and round that bunch up
and get them to put in additional
proof to secure YOURSELF
"I said: Mr.. Hermann, will you de-
fer matters until l see Mr.. Mitchell?'
HE said he would. / went and saw
Mr.. Mitchell and told him the circum-
stances, and the senator asked me II
/ could not go back there and get this
additional testimony. l told him no.
Says I, The parties have gone to Ma
Mia, some Of them, and Alaska, and
the ones that are there would refuse
to do anything; and my only course
was to get these patents Immediately
l was out $1,000, and all they were
worth was $4,000, and l thought If 1
should get out even on them l was
satisfied. That is when l paid him
that $4,000.
IT said, Now you go over there,
senator, as Soon as you can,' and he
did, and I got the patents in foul
days"

offer?'
He said 80 cents an acre didn't
amount to very much in that reserve.
He asked me If / knew--had any idea

promoters who created the Cascade

Mays big Thing In Timber.
81 asked Mr.. Mays what big thing
he expected to pull off while in Wash
ington that he had spoken to me
about several weeks before, and he
replied that he had several PROPOSE
tions in view, the principal one being
the creation of a timber reserve.
asked him where he expected to Gre
ate reserve, and he said in the Blue
Mountains, and then answered.:
Don't you think you will have a good
deal of opposition from that?' ..
Hermann Stands In.
"He replied: Not at ALL don't
expect any. You know l have a great
deal of influence in Washington now;
Senator Mitchell is there to help me
out, and you know how Binger Her
mann stands in, and 1 don't anticipate
any trouble about creating the re-

annexing a few townships on the west
side of the reserve. He thought 1t
was a pretty good plan IL we could
get any scrip land.
After my conviction in the III
case, I had talk with w. N. Jones
at the Hotel Portland. He came to
me and said: Steve, what is the mat
ter, I heard that you were going to
cut loose and give the whole bunch

garment? What is he looking for
when ne does 1t?
WHAT THE OSTEOPATII FINDS.
Answer.-He Is looking for that
which is abnormal. He is so thorough
ly familiar with the human anatomy,
as it SHOULD be, that his trained fin
gers speedily detect any variations
which may exist. His system teaches
him the plain and simple doctrine thai
the human body was made right ana
that unless some of its parts have
become disordered i'm their relations
to each other it will remain right un-
der ordinarily good usage.
Question.-Am l to understand you,
then, that he is looking to find some
thing the matter with bones?
Answer-Not so much to find some-
thing the matter with the bones them
selves rs to find something wrong in
their position, One or more ribs maH
have become slightly displaced, caus-
ing Q crowding of the softer struct-
ures; some Of the parts of the spine,
slightly turned, slipped or twisted;
there may be contracted soft tissues
which require relaxing in order to give
the blood vessels and nerves passing
through them a chance to carry on
their work normally. Any of these
conditions, and many others which l
can scarcely begin to describe at
length, are real causes of disease-in-
deed the chief causes.
Question.-Do other systems recog-
nize them as such?
Answer.-No. The discovery that
the bodily health depends almost en-
tirely on the correct adjustment of
the body structures Is the one great
est truth unearthed by DR.. Still in his
many years of study. the one great
principle OF Osteopathy. and on it the
science of Osteopathy Is based. The
idee was generally secuted until near
ly every disease in the calendar, en-
cepting few that are acknowledged
incurable, had been successfully treat
ed and cured simply by the correction
of the bodily misadjustment found by
DR. Still and his first followers.
Question.-Has Osteopathy received
any general recognition since these
things were demonstrated?
Answer.--The best recognition that
It has received is that the parent
school which DR.. Still founded now has
500 students that n half dozen other
good schools have large student bodies
as we'll, and that four thousand earn
est men and women are already prac-
tisng the science. think it may be

the government
Mr.. Puter went into the details Of
the land frauds from the very begin
ming and showed the criminal rela-
tions of Mays, Mitchell, Hermann and
Williamson, with the timber land
gang which plundered oregon of her
richest heritage, her school lands.
Parts of the testimony in regard to
the connection of some OF the prom

HOW TO DEAL WITH MICROBES.
Question.-What about the modern
and scientific theory that nearly all
diseases are caused by microbes? Your
doctrine would seem to deny all that
scientists have proven in that direc-
tlon. would it not7
Answer.-pur beliefs about mi
crobes are practically Identical with
those or other schools, with the ex-
ception that we place our emphasis
upon a point which is almost wholly
neglected by others although fully ac-
knowledged by them.
Question.-And what is that point?
Answer.-That point is that DAN
GERoUs MICROBES CANNOT LIVE
AND THRIVE IN A HEALTHY
TISSUE. They enter the system and
pass from it again without doing any
harm unless they chance to find 4
suitable area of weakened tissue in
which to nest and multiply. When
there is evidence of the presence of
microbes in great numbers, as there
is in so many diseases, it simply indi-
Gates to US that the point upon which
they have made their attack had been
ina previous condition of low vitality,
through some interruption in its sup
ply of blood nourishment or nerve
force. We hunt for the obstruction,
remove it by mechanical correction,
and the body forces are thus given
their chance to fight the foe-that is
all they ask. Soon the white blood
cells, the defenders of the body, are
found with numerous microbes in
closed, which they have seized and
killed. The restoration of the natural
blood flow places the army of defense
at its best. and the sooner enables it
to overcome the microbe invasion.
Question.-And you do cure what
are known as germ diseases without
administering anything to end the lives
of the germs?
Answer.-We most assuredly do.
The body is fully equipped with means
for ousting evil germs and microbes
of every kind. All that is required is
that the vital forces be properly di-
rected to the seat of the trouble. The
once and the patients chances of re-
covery are naturally more favorable
than If, besides microbes his body
forces had the effects Of deleterious
drugs to contend with.
Question.-But may not the recov-
cry he expedited by the giving OF some
drug to aid the blood cells in dispos-
ing Of the germs?
Answer.-Your question should
properly be answered by a medical
doctor But l will answer, no. The
internal use of medicine for such pur-
pose is not claimed by intelligent med
ical doctors, although such claims are
sometimes made by medical doctors
who are ignorant or are deceiving
their patients. Any drug capable of
destroying the germs will destroy the
cells of the body with which 1t comes
in contact, to say nothing of the
changes undergone when 1t is absorb
ed into the blood.
Question.-How about surgery?
Answer.-Surgery is indorsed by
osteopathy, but is advised only as h
last recourse. Osteopathic corrective
work avoids the necessity OF many op-
erations.

ular diseases call on or write your

RECOGNITION OF osTEoPATHY.

RECOGNITION OF OSTEOPATHY.
ouestion.-Has the question of it's
legality as a healing system ever been
decided?
Answer.-The question of its recog-
milton as complete and independent
system of healing has already been
before the legislatures of every state
in the Union; and 1t has up to date
received full recognition from two
thirds of these. In some Osteopathy
has separate board of state examin-
ers, in others it is represented by one
of its own practitioners as member
of the state board of medical examin-
ers. II also has received favorable
court decisions in several of the other
states.
QuestNn.-Well, doctor, to come
back to what you were saying about
these misadjustments of the bodily
parts causing disease. How do they
do it?
Answer-Simply by their effect on
the circulation of blood and nerve
force. There is place for every
thing and to have proper order every
thing must be in its place. If ver-
tebra is ever so slightly out of its
right position the little blood vessels
at that part Of the spine are crowded
into smaller space than properly be-
longs to them, proper nourishment is
withheld from the spinal cord and
nerves. Nerves even freque'sly suf-
fer from strong direct pressure.
TROUBLE AT NERVE ENDS.
Question.-But all of these things
should make trouble at the spine
should they not?
.Answer.-Sometimes they do. But
the first results which are felt from
pressure on nerve are almost always
in the parts to which the terminal
branches OF the nerve go. For in
stance, If there is adjustment at
the spine which causes pressure upon
one of the strands forming the great
sciatic nerve, you are likely to first
know about il by pain in your leg
or foot You will understand this
when you think of what happens
when YOU have been seated too long
In one pcsition-your foot goes to
sleep, while the pressure is usually at
the hip or above the knee.
Question,-But suppose the pressure
is on blood vessels, as you have stated
that it sometimes is?
Answer.-Nerves which get ther
nourishment from those blood vessels
may suffer in consequence and the
trouble seem to be caused directly by
nerves. But you must understand,
too, that every organ of the body gets
ITS nourishment chiefly from blood
vessels, and that it is drained by other
blood vessels. Does not that make It
clear how interference with blood YES
sells will make organs become weaken
ed and susceptible to disease?
CORRECTION OF MISADJUSTNIENT
Question.-How does the Osteopath
go about curing the disease after he
has discovered the physical defect
which he holds to be responsible?
Answer-He has been splendidly
trained in system of manipulations
which is adequate for every emergen-
cy. These manipulations consist chief
ly of the application of force to the
part that is misadiusted, with view
