''lD the first place. I find that in this
thickly built-up city the children are de-
prived of space to play. and not only in
their yards. but. in many instances, In the
school yards. which are very small In the
second place. / am interested as a parent

third place. / use the street with my team.
If the children are driven from the side

dinance you may adopt the principle of dis
elimination. For example. 1t may seem
that the children may be allowed to skate
on the sidewalks OF parks and circles. and
possibly on some of the less freauerted
residence streets. .-.-
The boys and girls of the cities are

they would take the matter under advise

WHY NOT ROOSEVELT

Because the Commercial association
Of Lewiston, Idaho. passed resolutions
recommending the election OF Presi-
dent Roosevelt for the second elective
term, a number of democratic MEM
bers of the association have made a
lot of fuss.
No democrat need fear to take the
thirty-third degree of the Roosevelt
program. He will find nothing in it
contrary to his religion, politics, NOR
ais orsdecorum.
The Lewiston association reviewed
IN a most sensible and practical man
ner, the reasons why Roosevelt should
hold Office again. Chief among the
reasons cited were: All of the reforms
started by Roosevelt were absolutely
needed for the good of the country;
all of his reforms are being prosecuted
Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1907-09-07

with absolute honesty and vigor; to
stop the reforms now would be worse
than If they had never been started;
the big corporations are demanding a
cessation of the investigation Of their
affairs, showing that they fear an hon.
est investigation; to let the corpora
lions bluff the president off now, will
be to strengthen them and make their
dislodgement impossible within few
years; the people are with the presi-
dent and his forces are organized and
he can complete his work better than
any other. These reasons are suffi-
cient.
Colorado, wyoming and oregon, the
states which have been shaken from
center to circumference by the Roose-
welt Investigations, are all vehement
in demanding his reelection, showing
that although he has chastised them
yet do they love him.
Oregon should send Roosevelt del
egation to the convention. 1t is the
most practical, sensible and polite
thing to do Let everybody be fol
Roosevelt until 1t Is definitely and con-
clusively known that he will not BIZ
forced, enticed, persuaded nor bluffe6
into taking the office again. It will
then be time to look elsewhere.-Eas

There is more Catarrh in this Sec
ton of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. For great many years doctors
pronounced it local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu-
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. j.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the mar
ket. 1t is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to teaspoonful. 1t acts
directly on the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it fails to
cure. Send for circulars and testi-
