 Bolt Down Their Food.
 The next time you eat at lunch counter, just you watch the people opposite. Look down the whole line and notice how they bolt down their or cold water. First they take large bite. then a drink. hurrying through their meal in five or ten minutes.
 Many of them don't know the cor rect way to eat while others are so intent on money making that they will not take the time to eat properly.
 The lunch counters create a great de- mand for Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, for every one knows that they assist the stomach in digesting the food that has been suddenly forced down into it.
 Health should be the first thing sought for in the battle for existence.
 With a sound body all things are possible to a man, while ill-health handicaps him.
 The dyspeptic is usually grouchy and cannot meet his fellow-man in the proper spirit to win his confidence and esteem.s Many a fine proposition has failed because a dyspeptic was back of it.
 Your brain does not work tight where dyspeptic conditions prevail, neither does any organ of the body.
 Get your digestive apparatus in per- feet condition first and all will go well with you.
 Take Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets un- til you cure yourself of indigestion, ca- carrh of the stomach and dyspepsia, and your heart, liver. brain and alb he organs of the body will perform their functions properly and you will be in sound health.
 Don't give up in despair, but get right, and all things will come your way and fortune will again smile upon you.
 You can purchase Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets anywhere on earth. They have become a family necessity everywhere.

FENSE OF SOUND.

WASHINGTON, Dec 23.-President
Roosevelt is taking great interest in
the Pacific coast defense and held a
series of conferences with the repre-
seItatives and senators from that sec-
ion Yesterday. 1t is believed the pres
dent wishes to bestir western men to
get the necessary appropriations for
mprovemcnt of the defense. San Fran
cisco is one of the best defended cities
in the world and needs little but San
Diego and San Pedro need defenses
badly. The president believes San Die
90 has one of the best harbors iE the
world and by the expenditure of a
little money, about $150,000, could be
given a 30-foOt channel. Congressman
Humphrey put the need of defense on
Puget sound very plainly TO the pres
ident who urged his visitors to work
for Hawaiian defense.

PASCO ROLLER IS ARRESTED
SHERIFF EUBANKS PLACES SAM
SERGEANT IN COUNTY JAIL
FOR SAFE KEEPING.

Sam Sergeant, believed to be a pro-
lfessional roller" was brought to the
city today from Pasco by Sheriff Eu-
bank of Franklin county. Sergeant is
alleged to have been caught red
handed in the act of robbing a man in
one of the Pasco saloons and was i'm
mediately placed under arrest.
"Pasco has been fortunate of late,
and l actually believe we have not had
a holdup there for three months.
said Sheriff Eubanks this morning. "As
Pasco is the dumping ground for the
general riff-raff population from both
the east and the west, it is natural
ly expected that the city holds many
undesirable people. Plenty of Grimm
ais may be found there any day. Last
week / arrested a man by the name or
Hickey and in less than three days

lease by putting up the required money.

.TREASURERL|ED
SAYS GOVERNOR
Chamberlain Denies He Is
Playing Politics
BOND MUST Be INCREASED
STEEL is HARD AT WORK AND
EXPECTS TO HAVE AMOUNT
RAISED IN TIME-FAlLURE
MEANS RESIGNATION.

SALEM, Ore, Dec. 24-"Steel lied
to me-" said Governor Chamberlain
last night, "about the condition of the
state funds and / should see no rea-
son to credit him now when he SAYS
he has about s230,O00 on hand" This
was Governor Chamberlain's reply to
critics who have been declaring that
his insistence on his demand that the
state treasurer provide a $500, 900 bond
or resign was but a political move on
the part of Chamberlain to force the
state treasurer from office.
1T is my duty to see that state
funds are protected by the treasurer
giving good and sufficient bond. Last
summer l demanded that Steel in
crease his bond until it equaled the
amount he had on hand and Steel
protested that this amount had been
so greatly reduced that an increased
bond was an injustice. Yet when the
Title Guarantee & Trust company
failed. 1 found that Steel had almost
100000 unprotected. Yet Steel has
told me in a published letter that he
had security for everything. They ac-
cuse me of being over eXacting con-
cerning Steers bondsmen yet they ad-
nit some of the men on the bond are
insolvent. If this is playing politics
with Steel l am guilty.

NATION OF NEBRASkAN ON
DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

NEW YORK. Dec. 24-(Special Cor
respondence)-The selection of Denver
as the city in which the
democratic national convention will
be held on July Z, is looked
upon here as strengthening the candi-
dacy of William Jennings Bryan; in
fact pretty much everything that has
happened of late, has, according to To-
zeal sentiment worked in that very
direction, and now no one else is men,
toned seriously in connection with
the democratic presidential candidacy.

ciliation of Charles F. Murphy, head
iof Tammany Hall and Patrick II. Nc
ICarren, leader of the democratic party
i'm Brooklyn who have long been at
swords point. By many this is taken to
mean that these two important forces
in the democratic councils of this
state are about to join forces for the
purpose of checking the rising cur
rent ir. favor of Bryan and to push
the candidacy of Lieutenant Governor
Chanler, the favorite of William j..
Corners. democratic state chairman.
The situation here, however, is per-
lhaps best summed up in the words of
Urey WOOdsOn of Kentucky, secretary
of the national organization, who says:
AN awkward and stupid campaign
lis being conducted for the young lieu
tenant governor of New York. All the
way through the coarse literature that
lis being sent out there runs the sug-
eestive vein that since Mr.. Chanler
is kin to the Astors the boys in the
backwoods would better get in line If
they want to have a season of pros
perity. The stuff has done no good thus
far. In fact. no headway has been made
against Bryan by anybody or from any
source"

LIKES ROOSEVELT.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.-F'rancis j.
Heney drifted far enough away from
land fraud cases to talk of national
politics and International relations as
they affected the Pacific coast today.
Heney picked Roosevelt as the first
choice of the west for president, Taft,
second. and Hughes. third. He then de-
clared that the Pacific coast was still
bitter against the japanese and that
absolute exclusion was the only meas
ure that would satisfy the people.
But he said, I'VE certainly take but

which the plaintiff seeks to collect

as the plaintiff was an osteopatn phy-
