LEPER POLITICIANS.
Island of MoIokai Paradise for Cam
paign SpeIIbinders.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
The lepers at the leper settlement on
the Island of Molokai have new
amusement. For the first time in the
history of essettlement it has real
election, and the entire community Is
devoting itself to the matter to the
exclusion of all other things. Under
the new county act the settlement is
created county, but all the functions
of government are given to the board
of health, except the election of deputy
sheriff A large number of candidates
for this Office have arisen, and cam
paign which surpasses anything ever
known anywhere else is in progress.
The conditions at the settlement are
ideal for political campaigns. The peo-
pie have absolutely nothing to do but
take part in political campaigns. They
do not have TO work for a living, for

might be found that would reinforce the
aging cells and stimulate them to renewed
youth, that the fountain of youth was
bottle of age anti-toxin. At least for
temporary wear and tear. DR.. Weiechardt
has about realized Metchnikoff's ideal.
1t is known that increased muscular ac-
ITCHY requires an increased supply of oxy-
gen. If we run we must breathe deep and
hard. In the course of his Investigations
DR.. Weichardt found that a much larger
quantity of the fatigue poison could be
obtained when the tired out muscles were
treated with reducing substances-that is
to say, with substances which rob oXy-
gen from others. The fatigue poisons are
given time to rest. 1t is conceivable that
they simply are flushed out by the circu-
lation of the blood but there is much in
the recent advance of bio-chemistry to
indicate that they simply are oxidized.
If this be true then If we can get hold
of some way of maintaining and stimu-
lating this oxidlzing process we shall get
a long way In the maintenance Of youth
full vigor.
To this also there has been a clew. A
Russian pathologist, Belonvsky has
shown that the hemolysins, the poison
serrms which in quantity destroy red cor
puscles, stimulate the production Of the
corpuscles when they are administered
In small doses. This discovery already
has been utilized to good purpose in
treating anaemia. Perhaps 1t will some
time help to ward off old age.
Such, then, is the borderland of old age
knowledge. What lies beyond tomorrow
will tell. Certain 1t Is that the marvels
which the last thirty or forty years have
revealed will not end. The great body
of knowledge already built up about the
vital chemism, the rule of the ferments,
the serums, the antitoxins, the body de-
stroyers and tine body builders can prove
to be but powerful engine for further
advance, advance away from the dark
kingdoms of old age into the summer
land of everlasting youth.

Mr.. Pratt set the service in motion

For some min utes he struggled against it's force but he was powerless and he drifted rapid ly toward the canyon. Just before he reached any dangerous part ne was discovered by one of the workmen, Tom Carlton, and after much effort was pulled ashore.

MATtR RUNNING
 IN POWER CANAL
A Realization of the Endeavors of
 hany nonths.

Roosevelt, Ariz., March 26-(Spec- lal Correspondence of The Rcpubli- can)-For the first time the power. canal. towards which all energies of the government engineers have been
 rent for the last year. was running about quarter full of water last
 Thursday evening. Water was turned i m at the intake about five miles above Livingstone on the afternoon
 before, but on account of the small head and the newness of the ditch. did not reach the penstock at the power house until the following afternoon. Heretofore water has been in the ca nal down as far as Cottonwood about two miles east of here where there Is great pressure pipe through which II must pass before it reaches the end. but on account of the newness of that structure it has not been turned in before. At the penstock where it will De used to generate power for work OF the dam, the water was turned down into cAe river. it being decided not to try to run the great turbine below. until the water should be a little freer rom silt. It was allowed to run here Tor about ten hours when it was shut off at Cottonwood to repair few seepage cracks that had appeared along the banks between here and that 'place- On Sunday it was again turned Tn at first only small head and then as mucn as the canal could carry.
 To those who have followed the work on this great power ditch it was indeed pleasure to see the realization of their hopes and plans To have water in the canar' has been the watchword of all for many months past, and too much credit cannot be given to the men who have so patient ly and earnestly worked night and day to that end. There is possibly no rougher country in all the west through which a canal of any kind has been driven and this one through out all the nineteen miles of it's, length has presented seemingly almost insurmountable obstacles to those who have had it's construction in charge There were hills to be tunneIed. long heavy fills to be made and great can yons to be crossed. Of it's whole length nearly a tenth passes through tunnels or in all about 5000 feet. At Pinto there is a great pressure pipe over twenty-four hundred feet long and at Cottonwood Canyon there is shorter one about seven hundred feet in length. Both of these structures are or reinforced concrete and are world heaters. The one at Pinto has the remarkable leakage record of O7 of i per cent. while the Cottonwood pipe subjected to head of so feet pressure the greatest known in the world has leakage of less than one-quarter of one per cent. These two structures alone, are perhaps the most wonder ful things on the project and these most gratifying results were obtained by placing both pipes under the moss trying and unfavorable conditions

FACTS IN NATURE.
Not Only Do We Get Inspiration From
 Nature, But Health as Well.

For people who are rundown and nerv OuS, who suffer from indigestion or dys- pepSia, headache. biliouSIeSs. or torpid liver, coated tongue with bitter taste in the morning and poor appetite, it be- comes necessary to turn to some tonic or strengtheuer which will assist Nature and help them to get on their feet and put the body into it's proper condition. It is becoming more and more apparent that Natures most valuable health giving agents are to be found in forest plants and roots.
 Nearly forty years ago, Dr. R.V. Pierce. now consulting physician to the InValidS' Hotel and Surgical Institute. at Buffalo, N. Y.. discovered that by scientifically extracting and combining certain medici- nal principles from native roots. taken from our American forests, he could pro- duce a mediciLe which was marvelouSly efficient in curing cases of blood disorder and liver and stomach trouble as well as many other chronic, or lingering ail ments. This concentrated extract of Natures vitality he named TGolden Med ical Discovery" It purities the blood by putting the stomach and liver into healthy condition, thereby helping the digestion and assimilation Of food which feeds the blood. Thereby it cures weak stomach, indigestion, torpid liver. or bill iousneSS, and kindred Arrangements
 If you have coated tongue, with bitter or bad taste in the morning. frequent headaches, feel weak, easily tired, stitches or pain in side, back gives out easily and aches, belching of gas. constipation. or irregular bowels, feel flashes of heat al- ternating with chilly sensations or kin dred symptoms, they point to derange- ment of your stomach, liver and kidneys, which the "Golden Medical Discovery" will correct more speedily and perma- nently than any other known agent. Con- tainS no alcohol or habit forming drugs. All it's ingredients printed in plain Eng fish on wrapper
 The sole motive for substitution is to permit the dealer to make little more profit. He gains; you lose. Accept no sub stitute for "Golden Medical Discovery"
 Constipation causes and aggravates many serious diseases. It is thoroughly cured by Dr. Pierces Pleasant Pellets. One laxative; two or three are cathartic.
