TO EDUCATE
WASHINGTON
Commissioner Ballinger States That
Government Officials Have No
Idea of West.

SEATTLE, July 5.-At the 1un-
checn given at noon today by the
members of the King county republic
can club at the Rathskeller, short
talks were made by Judge Ballinger
and Congressman w. E. Humphrey.
Judge Ballinge> reiterated his
statements previously made to the
effect that the west has an ardent
champion in the president, and ar
other in Secretary Garfield.
These gentlemen, the Judge be-
lieves to be in thorough and lntellI.
gent accord with the west, and to
understand the true national balance.
As to the census bureau, that depart
ment he believes needs to be awak-
ened regarding western conditions.
I'VE must educate the east, said
the judge, for they need to know
more about us. They have no proper
conception of Seattle or Alaska.
"As to the policy of the land Of
flee, it has returned to that of the
old free soil party-to preserve the
public domain for the landless set
tier
Il have the same interest in Seat
tie and in the Republican party that
| have always had, and | realize more
than ever the Importance of keeping
the republicans in control of nation
al affairs.
Congressman Will E. Humphrey
was called upon and responded with
brief talk, in which he compliment
ed the commissioner of the general
land Office on the progress made, an |
fthe cou1try on the prosperity which
has marked the past few yea 3.
1t is practically assured that the
republican club will be in its own
headquarters within a short time,
and the financial problem has been
solved and the details left to the
proper officials.

Cure every form of kidney ills.
Mrs. C. w. Zimmerle. of 1905
Rucker avenue, Everett, Wash, says
Three years ago our little girl got
so much help through Doan's Kidney
Pills in a case of weakness OF the
kidneys and severe acute pains
through the back that I gave a testi-
monial recommending the remedy so
that mothers with children similarly
affected might know how to find re-
lief For over a year this trouble had
sadly weakened the child's health,
yet it only required about two boxes
of Doan's Kidney Pills to bring COM
plete relief. There has not been a
sign of the trouble returning through
the years that have passed by. which
surely proved that the cure was per-
manent."

move superintendents and assistants OF

tion. A majority of the recent legisla-
tive investigating committee sustained
the administration OF the superintendent
and his assistants.

dated December 81, to Col. l.. W. Lane,
Commissioner OF Hospitals, setting forth
HIS views OF the case. He will refuse to
surrender his office January |. tha date
