JUAN RODRIGUEZ
 SKINNED ALIVE
A Desperate Cutting Affeay on South
 Seventh Avenue.

Juan Rodriguez was more nearly skinned alive last night than any other man ever seen in these parts. He is an elderly Mexican living on South Seventh avenue. He got into drunk en row yesterday evening near the sec tion house on the avenue and was lit erany cut into shreds by some one whose identity is not yet known. That he did not bleed to death immediately is due to the prompt efforts of George Monical, a section foreman who hap pened along.
 Rodriguez was taken to his home and Dr. H. F. Stroud was summoned. The doctor found in the first place that the right forearm had been cut to the bone, severing muscle and tendon and artery. This was the most danger ous wound. There was another cut un the same arm higher up and still an other on the shoulder.
 There was deep ugly gash on the lower part of the side, laying bare the bone and besides there was a skin wound two feet long. In all the doc tor took more than forty stitches to hold Rodriguez together until he could heal up.
 Rodriguez will recover. He would not tell with whom he was fighting.

WANT AND NEED.

There's a big difference between what a baby wants and what he needs. Deny him the one, give him the other. Most babies need Scott's Emulsion-it's the right thing for a baby. It contains a lot of strength building qualities that their food may not contain. After a while they get to want it. Why2 Because it makes them comfortable. Those dimples and round cheeks mean health and ease. Scott's Emulsion makes children easy; keeps them so, too.

SHE DID NOT ELOPE
 SAYS MRS. WHITTLESH

 for Protection.

The Republican has received a let ter from Mrs. Laura Whittlesey of Llano. Texas, the divorced wife of Roy Whittlesey, whose trial here for an assault with intent to commit mur- der has been set for May 29. In the letter Mrs. Whittlesey tells her side of the story. which has already lad a great deal of prominence. but in as much as it is not likely that her evil dence will be brought out it might be improper to repeat her version at a time so near the date of the trial.
 The essential thing, though. in the letter is a denial of statements which have been printed regarding the char acter of Mrs. WhittIesey. It was said that she had become infatuated with Reisinger, the man with whom Whit tIesey had his duel at Tombstone at the time of the shooting of another woman there and that she had eloped with him.
 On this point the letter states that the writer and her husband had for long time been unable to agree and that at last their relations became so unbearable that she was compelled to leave. Reisinger was her cousin, and as she had no other relative or friend in Bisbee she turned to him for pro lection and remained in the territory only long enough to prepare herself for a divorce As soon as possible after she had secured il she returned to the home of her relatives in Texas

NOTHING CAN STOP US!

For several days past the publishing
of newspaper in Walla Walla has
been about the most strenuous mode or
existence to be found in the great state
of Washington. Hunting bear on the
mountain top with a nail-cleaner
could be no more nerve-racking.
Housewives throughout the city,
families using gas solely to cook with,
have had a touch of the non-gaseous
inferno, but the full force of the omis-
sion has fallen upon the newspapers
where the gas has contributed a vital
part of the intricate machinery.
With trouble at the gas plant there
have been hours through the day when
no gas could be obtained with which
to heat and melt the metal which is
cast into type through the linotype
machines. When the metal freezes"
there's an end to typesettlng for
time. With no type set there can be
no newspaper.
But through it all the capable force
in the mechanical department of The
Statesman has developed a resource
fulness and an ability to meet emer-
gencies which has resulted in this pa
per being placed before its readers with
all of the important news and without
any editorial apologies being neces-
sary for an "abridgement'.
There have been days when the pa
per was delivered late, but the news
was there. Comparison with other
newspapers which are apologizing for
their abridged" news service will de-
monstrate the enterprise of The
Statesman's live assistants.
We haven't kicked once. We have
no excuses to make, or apologies TO
offer.
But we do feel a little proud of the
fact that The Statesman came out not
over an hour late-and with all the
live news. If the gas gave out, the in
telligent mechanics and printers
bought gasoline. If the pump failed to
work another was purchased. If one
scheme failed another was tried. No
expense was spared to give the readers
of The Statesman their usual quota of
news, minus the complaints and
"abridged' apologies.
And readers of The Statesman ap-
preciate the resourcefulness of a live
newspaper which SurmOuntS all OBJ
stacles and knows not the word fail"

PARKER A REACTIONARY.

The address of Judge Parker before
the American Bar association may be
read between the lines to express the
judges views of certain men now
prominently before the public. His rap
at executive interference in legislation
is quite possibly aimed at Roosevelt.
His attack upon the sensational news
paper-'that outward sign of inward
popular corruption or hysteria"-is
quite palpably aimed at Hearst Bry-
an is not clearly pointed out but
there are enough references to legisla-
tive incompetents, and public amateurs
to include him.
Judge Parker's speech was an ar
raignment of overlegislation, whose
springs he found in the hysteria arous-
ed by sensational newspapers, the de-
sires of bosses to have laws which
they can either Sell or trade, the over
weening ambition of executives to pro-
cure laws which will carry out their

BRYAN'S FAUX PAS.

The opinion expressed in The Mime
apolis Journal that Mr.. Bryan's New
York speech would prove a severe
blow to his position as a statesman to
be trusted is voluminously endorsed
from democratic sources. The general
concansus of judgment appears to be
that there is no need to break new
ground, that enough now lies on the
surface to employ the energies of a
party. The tariff, the trusts the in
CAPABILITIES of wealth offer a realm
sufficient for a campaign without lug
ging in a poorly digested scheme of
state socialism.
Mr.. Bryan seems to have been i'm
bued with the thought that he must
make good his London advertisement
that he was more radical than in 1896
and that those who thought he was not
had surprises in store for them. Such
men as Folk, Watterson and Bailey de-
plore the New York speech, while such
irresponsible demagogues as Coler find
in it the extract of wisdom
1t is possible that there still may be
two contests in the democratic conven-
ton, one over the candidate, the other
over the platform. Mr.. Bryan may be
opposed unsuccessfully as a candidate
and yet be opposed successfully as a
platform dictator,
