nature that they excite more than
usual interest
The reputation that DR.. Rea has
made in the many dificult cases that
he has successfully treated is his best
introduction to suffering humanity.
In the treatment of Cancer, Consump-
ton, Tumors, Heart diseases of men,
diseases Of women, nervous diseases,
and chronic diseases, there are few
physicians his equal. 1t is claimed
by DR.. Rea's friends that he can
diagnose the disease Of any patient
without asking him a question. This
being the case, he is not liable to
doctor them for the wrong disease, ais
is often the case with inexperienced
physicians.

MAY SUE GRAND FORKS

ATTORNEY GENERAY ERICH HAS
@ THREATENED SUIT ON FINES
AND FoRFEITUREs HELD BACK
FOR YEARS.
Tango Forum: Attorney General
Flrich has tjhreatened GRAND Forks
lcio1Inty with "a suit if the county fails
ito turn over fines and forfeitures col
lected in several years past. In a
letter ito States Attorney Wineman
the attorney general says he has re-
,ceived instruction to institute proceed
ings If he money is not turned over.
There DIS about $1,000 involvtI in THE
controversy. While THE county admits
that the fines and forefitlres should go
into the school fund lit is insisted that
the costs of THE proceedings in which
THE fines and foTfeitures were secured
should be taken over ITO the school
fund. The law says the gross amount
shanl be turned over to THE sSonolol
funds, while the constitution provides
that the net amount is due THE fund,
according to States Attorney Wine
man. He has notified the attorney
general that THE county will turn over
the amount of the fines, less the costs
to THE county of the law proceedings
in he cases. A settlement on this
basis would result in a saving to the
county of about $4,000.
The county commissioners have
taken tine same view of the mattel as
THE states attorney and favor plac-
ing the matter before the supreme
court if the state insists the gross re
ceipts SHOULD be paid. ,.4.sa
