RHEUMATISM CANNOT BE
CURED UNLESS URIC.O
Is USED
Sudden Deaths, Heart Failure and
Paralysis Are Caused by Poisonous
Uric and Rheumatic Acids.

The disease whose cause is shrouded
in mystery, the affiiction that is said to
be incurable, is commonly known as
paralysis. Show us a person suffering
with this disease, and you will find
that at some time previous to the at
tack, the patient suffered from some
form of rheumatism. This dangerous
disease should not be neglected, espe-
cially where there is cure within such
easy reach. We refer to Smiths Spe-
cifc Uric.O, a harmless compound, free
from alcohol and poison, and made to
cure rheumatism only. Uric-O acts
with marvellous swiftness on the blood,
muscles and kidneys, and cannot fail
to remove all traces of poisonous Uric
and Rheumatic acid from the system.
Uric-O is not cathartic does not affect
or distress the stomach, and is the only
known liquid preparation that will re-
lieve and permanently cure Rheuma-
tism in it's most distressing forms. We
want all Rheumatic sufferers to test the
merits of Uric-O, therefore by address
ing the SMITH DRUG COMPANY, SYR-
ACUSE, n. Y, a liberal size sample and
circular will be sent free. Uric-O is
sold by Druggists at $1.00 per bottle,
or will be sent direct upon receipt of
price.
Uric-O is sold and recommended in
Morrisville by HALL & CHENEY.

John d. Lamb, Samuel Louey and
H. B. Kershaw returned to Walla
Walla this morning after spending a
week in the vicinity of Anitone, on
the Grande Ronde river, inspecting
some newly discovered coal mines
that are being opened up by the John
p. Vollmer company OF Lewiston.
says the Walla WaIIa Statesman.
THE Vollmer company has appar-
emily struck big coal deposit in that
section" Mr.. Lamb said this morn
ing. THE company has tunneled into
the mine, being opened up about 200
feet, and struck an immense ledge OF
coal. A vein 40 feet in width has al
ready been encountered and it may be
much wider than that, as the crew is
still eXcavatng at the end of the tun-
mel The coal seems to be of excellent
quality and resembles the Roslyn
product.
"Anitone is about 80 miles from
the O. & y. extension of the Elgin
branch. Coal groupings can be seen
for miles around. The Vollmer COM
pany is now financing a new company
to handle the property and develop
it."

NO TENANTS IN COUNTY JAIL.
Authorities Hope TO Have Il Renovat-

For several days past the only oc-
cupants of the county Jail have been
c. p. Davis and Moses Taylor, and
when they We're taken out last night
to board the delayed No. for Salem,
the Jail was emptied for the first time
since the first administration of Will
liam Blakley, when for one day the
place was without a prisoner
While the Jail is unoccupied, it is
proposed to thoroughly clean the
place throughout, and to fumigate
everything. Also, it is hoped by the
sheriff that the county court will or
der the interior repainted and white
washed. However, the condition of
the Jail has not been bad during the
past as strict sanitary rules have
been enforced, and the use of the bath
tub insisted upon. The most trouble
has been derived from prisoners
transferred to the Jail from the city
lookup, and arrivals from the latter
place have always been looked upon
with disfaror both by prisoners and
deputies.

walla Walla, Feb. 2O.-A smooth
card trick, rivalling the gold brick
swindle that Crooked Mouthed"
Green and his confederates worked
on Benjamin F. Royce, the Dixie far
mer a few years ago, was reported
to the authorities this morning by
John Eisler, n mining man from
Montana, who alleges that he was
bilked out of $1342 in a card game at
Pasco Friday night by three Walla
Walla tinhorn gamblers.
Eisler reported the matter to Sher-
if Eubanks at Pasco yesterday and
the sheriff in turn reported the af-
fair to the Walla Walla authorities,
with instructions to arrest the three
men, as they were supposed to be in
this city. Further than alleging that
one of the men implicated in the af-
fair was named Wright, Eisler could
not give a description of the three
men. Getting wind that the officers
were on the lookout for them, it is
said that the men got out of town last
night. going north on the o. II. & N.
train that connects with the Wallula
train.
Eiser arrived in Walla Walla this
morning, but he was so excited over
the loss of his money that he could
not give a coherent account of the
game worked on him, further than
to say that a check on the Farmers
Savings bank, given the three men at
Pasco Friday night, had been cashed
Saturday afternoon.
Bank Paid Over the Money.
Although the officials of the Farm
ers' Savings bank were reluctant to
talk of the affair this morning, It was
learned that stranger appeared at
the bank Saturday afternoon and pre-
sented check for $1S42, signed by
Eisler. The teller declined to cash
the check until the stranger could
identify himself. The man left the
bank and returned in short time
with John Smails, proprietor of the
Smails saloon.
Mr. Smails, It is said, identified the
man as being one Of the men to whom
the check was made payable, and the
money, amounting to s1342, was paid
over and they left the bank. The
bank officials said they could not
give the name of the man to whom
the money was paid over and were
not sure that they knew the man
The money was paid on Mr.. Smails

May 2S has been set as the date for
the wool salesday for Pendleton, and
from indications at present a large
percentage of the growers of the
county will hold their clips for that
occasion. The date was agreed upon
by the Umatilla county sheepmen at
their convention held here recently.
In this the local men have acted in
for in the past ii has been the GUS
tom for the state secretary to arrange
dates for all three of the eastern Ore
gon markets-Pendleton. Shaniko and
Heppner. But while the Pendleton
salesday has been already set it is
understood that the others will be ar
ranged so as not to conflict.
According to the sheepmen their
experience with the salesday system
has proven Conclusively that it is a
good thing for them. They declare
that in the past the men who have
held their wool for the salesday have
received from one to several cents
per pounds more for having done so.
Consequently, it is probable that the
majority will wait for the sale this
spring.
FIom all indications now the prices
this year will be even stronger than
last year, though it is difficult to tell
what may develop before shearing is
over. Unlike last season there are
now few buyers in the field for the
purpose of contracting. However,
this is attributed to the fact that the
growers, anticipating good prices,
are unwilling to contract except at a
high figure.

CANNOT BUY IN 1885 AND ALSO IN 1902

BY a decision given yesterday by
Federal Judge Wolverton, it is de-
clared that parties who purchased
land on the Umatilla reservation un-
der the act of 1886, had not the right
to do so again under the sale of
1902.
The decision was given in the fa-
nous Hoover-Jones case which has
been pending for a long time, and
which has been regarded as test
case. Hoover was the contestant in
the case, and the contest was brought
on the ground that the entryman,
Jones, having purchased 160 acres Of
untimbered land under the former
sale, was not entitled to do so again
under the sale Of 1902. The land Of
flee at La Grande ruled in favor of

AFFAIRS YET AT A sTlNDsTILL.
No Date Yet Set for Hearing of Suits
I'm Tribune Disagreement.

After having been in the hands of
a receiver for four days, the affairs
of the Tribune are now apparently
as far from settlement as ever. Ac-
cording to the employe- directors,
they have again been requested to
sell by Mr.. Dodd. However, they
characterize the offer as n bluff and
have declined 1t as before, preferring
to await the outcome of the suit
suit which they have pending in the
circuit court. In this suit the sub
stantial things asked for are that
Dodd be compelled to make an ac-
counting and to pay the stockholders
their share of the dividends for the
past years business, and also to re-
move the $4,000 mortgage upon the
plant.
No date has yet been set for the
hearing of the cases in the circuit
court, and there is a difference of
opinion regarding the same. This
morning John McCourt, one of the
attorneys for Mr.. Dodd, intimated
that the case would probably not
come up during Judge Ellis term,
owing to other cases on the docket.
In this event the paper would remain
as at present until after election.
However. A. d. Stillman, attorney
for the employees, says an early hear
ing was promised by Judge Ellis and
expects the same. He will file an an
swer to the Dodd suit within a short
time. According to Mr. Stillman, the
coming election has nothing what
ever to do with the case, as far as his
side is concerned as the men are ask
ing for nothing but q just account
ing and that the secret mortgage be
lifted.

the contestee. However, the case was
carried to the commissioner of the
general land office, and there the de-
cision of the lower official was re-
versed.
Following the decision of the de-
partment the case was then taken in
to the federal court and by the decis-
ion yesterday, the department was
upheld. However, the decision does
not affect the right of one who pur-
chased only untimbered land at the
first sale, to purchase 40 acres Of
timber under the sale of 1902 If de-
sired.
In the case before the federal court
Attorney L, B. Reeder appeared for
Hoover, while Colonel J. II. Raley and
John McCourt represented the other
side.
