city of Spokane, nesting at the foot
of the mountains surrounded by virgin
and fertile soil on the west and south,
but recently molested forests of vast
extent on the north and east, cut in

of developing limitless water power,

in the United States are less than 100
miles distant from Spokane. II 1t be

What would she be today had she

case before the Interstate commerce
commission.
James ]. Hill and f. II. Hartman
will find much to interest them in
Spokane's brief of 213 pages, written
by H. NJ. Stephens, attorney for the
complainants in the rate case, which
will be argued before the interstate
commerce commission at Washington
d. c., in June. The brief has just
come from the printers. In conclu-
sion 1t says:
"Mr. Hill said to the people of Spo-
kane in 1892 and later testified in the
Securities company case, that his road
could haul freight at a cheaper rate
than any other western road. He also
testified in the Securities company
case that the two northern roads could
haul cotton from the southern states
| (the longer distance) at less rate
than the southern roads because OF
the eastbound tonnage-timber, min
erals. etc.
Mr.. Elliott says that the density OF
traffic on the Northern Pacific and the

cent greater than the other western
roads. Mr.. Elliott also says that the
increase in traffic in the last five year
on and along the Northern Pacific ant

In Diseases of WOmeIl-HOw It Wins
Where Drugs Fail.
1t Is one of the conundrums to the
thinking world why with the boasted
science OF medicine in 1000 years has
not been able to devise method of
reducing congestion and inflamma-
tions of the female organs. That all
efforts in this line have been COM
plete failures is demonstrated by the
fact that these efforts have termi-
mated in removal of the organs with
permanent invalidism as the final re-
suit.
Why have these efforts been such
complete failures? The answer is
clear-the wise men have confined
their efforts TO the organs themselves,
hoping to find within the organs
something Of causative nature; scru-
tinizing under the microscope thin
slices Of tissue, writing exhaustive
treatises on the cell changes and other
phenomena. This is all interesting
from a scientific standpoint as giving
pleasing knowledge to the doctors.
But what of its utilitarian value? How
does 1t aid them in curing the disease 2
How much does it relieve the suffer-
ing of the poor woman? They might
just as well spend their time in mi
croscopic examination of the hands OF
a watch, expecting thereby to discover
a means of making the watch run.
To the osteopath they have left the
duty of searching for and finding the
cause of htese congestions and inflam-
nations. Reasoning on the physiolog.
ical facts that the calibre Of the blood
vessels, and consequently the amount
of blood is controlled by the vase
mootr nerves, the osteopaths search
ed for the things interfering will
thes enerves. This he found in th'
slight slips of bones and contractur'
of muscles and ligaments. CORRECTING
these, he gets control Of the calibr
of the blood vessels and so gets
permanent cure. Can anything b
more reasonable and plain?

An OUTRAGEOUS OUTRAGE. :

1t took thefnew grand jury oil
the District Court of East Baton
Rouge exactly three minutes, after
it had heard all the evidence, to
bring in mot true bill" in the
case of the State of Louisiana
against Congressman George K.
Favrot. charged with the murder
of DIR. r. HI. Aldrich.
1t is reported that there was
intense excitement around the
courthouse when the jury's decis-
ion was made public"
No wonder! There is also in
tense indignation throughout the
State.
That sort of thing is just the
sort of thing that causes lynching-
bees. 1t must be characterized as
an absolute failure, on the part of
citizens selected for the purpose
of carrying out the preliminary
intention of justice. to act in ac-
cordance with their duty and the
purpose of the law.
We are not arguing for or
against George X. Favfot's inno-
cence or guilt insofar as the charge
of murder lin the first degree is
concerned.
But every one knows that he
slew DIR. Aldrich without giving
the latter a chance to defend him.
self.
1t stands to reason, therefore,
that he is guilty of manslaughter,
at the least. And manslaughter
is an offense against the State.
Consequently. it certainly be-
hooved the grand jury to bring in
an indictment of some sort, from
manslaughter up.
But it has chosen to do nothing
of the sort. 1t has chosen to rem

forceful character are testimonials
of his fitness for the great achieve

earnest efforts of an ever-useful
