IMPORTANT FOR
YOU TO KNOW

To the afflicted:
During the past fifteen years that
| have served the people of this city
and surrounding country | have been
treating typhoid fever radically diff
ferent from others, and so success
fully that today | am confident that
q is entirely unnecessary for the dis
case to run its course, as is generally
maintained. In fact, | know that II
has been stopped in more than 80 per
cent of all of the cases coming under
my care for the past ten years and
that within a week. Generally 1t Is
not necessary to go to bed at all but
If the case has advanced to that stage
It has been my observation that a
week, at most, was all the time re-
quired to regain health. And al
though have been called many times
to see those who had been pronounc-
ed beyond help, with just three ex-
ceptions, they have all gotten NJ
within a week and proceeded on a
very rapid recovery. Knowing these
to be facts. it seems to me too bad
to incur so much expense, lose SO
much time and undergo so many be-
reavements, when most of them can
be avoided, and that so easily and at
so little cost.
To ascertain as to the above facts
it is only necessary to inquire of those
who know of my treatment of the dis
ease. and they are hundreds, scatter
ed all over the western slope.
In many cases it is not essential
that I should see the patient, simply
send me one who can give me an in
telligent description of the case and
] can prescribe, furnishing all of the
medicine, when, If the directions are
strictly followed that will be all that
Is required. In other cases where
the disease has been allowed to run
until the patient is on the verge OF
dissolution, it will be necessary for
me to see them once or more times.
Typhoid fever is durable. and that in
a very short time. ! have proven 1t
in hundreds of cases, with but three

OREGON PUBLIC
IMPATIENT
ANXIOUS THAT DELAY IN
LAND FRAUD CASES BE-
CAUSE OF HENEY'S AB-
SENCE BE TAKEN UP AND
PROSECUTED.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. GO
A special dispatch sent from this
city to an Oregon paper states that
the department of justice has de-
cided that there must be no furth-
err delay in the Oregon land fraud
prosecutions If Francis J. Heney
can't spare the time from his du-
ties in San Francisco the govern
ment will probably appoint some
other prosecutor.
John Hall, indicted for land
frauds, recently wrote to Roosevelt
asking for beginning of his trial.
Roosevelt transmitted the dispatch
to the attorney general and thence
to w. c. Bristol who, 1t Is said, re-
piled that he could not take up the
Hall case as 1t was one of Heney's
cases. The Hermann case is an
other which the department of JUS
tice wishes tried at once.
PORTLAND, Nov. 26.-"If John
Hall is running the department of
justice, the sooner the people of
Oregon find 1t out the better"
states w. c. Bristol, and with that
remark he dismissed the entire
story from Washington in relation
to a new land fraud prosecutor to
take Heney's place for the imme-
diate trial of John Hall
1t is said here that Bonaparte,
Taft and Garfield all concurred
with Heney and Bristols request,
made last fall and summer, that
trials in Oregon wait until Heney
is free in San Francisco.
Discomfort over the long delay
in land fraud trials is apparent in
Portland, however. Last night one
evening paper cartooned Heney as
the caricature of a male justice
asleep at his post, oblivious of the
hand of public opinion, while
spiders enmeshed court officials
and somnolent attorneys.

JAP FOUND wALLbMlNe IN
BLOOD IN HIS ROOM AT
GREAT NORTHERN HOTEL
AFTER DESPERATE STRUG-
GLE.

A Japanese named Nishi, wallow-
ing in his own blood in room l OF
the Great Northern hotel, was the
sight which at 5:45 o'clock this
morning greeted Patrolmen Pitts,
Buck Miller and Bunker as they
ran into the room, following tele-
phone call that Jap had been
murdered.
Nishi had managed to crawl back
onto the bed, where he lay, moan
ing, with his head battered in and
his clothing torn from his body.
Beside the bed lay a heavy iron
bar about two inches in circumfer-
ence and II inches long. Its
jagged end was clotted with blood
and pieces Of flesh.
There was evidences of desper-
ate struggle as furniture of the
room was upside down.
Fearing that the Jap was dying,
Detective Sergeant McPhee was
called out of bed and arrived imme-
diately after DR.. Burchard Roark.
A restorative enabled the Jap to
collect his wits long enough to give
an incoherent story of the affair.
He said a white man came into
the room while he slept. Awaken
ing, the Jap leaped from his bed
and grappled with the man he saw
by the dim light rifiing the peck
cts of his trousers, which were
hanging in corner.
Then the Jap received a blow
with the iron bar which sent him
reeling. He chung desperately to
his assailant and was beaten insen-
sible. He could not give an ac-
count of the appearance of the
tug other than than he was a white
man.
AS nearly as the police can
learn, the assault occurred about

A letter was received last night
by the Central Labor union asking
that something be done to organ
iZe the mill workers. The letter
was signed by three mill men. 1t
was stated that wages had been re-
duced in local mills from 25 to so
cents per day for employees The
same men received no proportion
ate advance when lumber was high
and times booming.
The matter was referred to the
Carpenters union, that organiza-
ton having jurisdiction over the
mill workers.
II. Windebank, business agent of
the Carpenters union, said today
that the millworkers We're eligible
to membership in the local Carpen-
ters' union and that the latchstring
was out at all times if they should
feel like accepting and making an
effort to better themselves. He
stated that the regular initiation
fee of the Carpenters union had
been reduced from $40 to S. for
the benefit OF this class of labor,
but little or no advantage has been
taken of it to join the ranks of or
ganized labor by the i'll workers,
I'VE have one mill now that en-
ploys all union help" said Mr..
Windebank, and places the union
label on their product. the Luell-
WITT Co. being the concern referred
to. II is impossible TO aid the mill
men unless they first learn that to
make a success they will have TO
join the union in such numoers as
to practically control the mill work
of the city.
Personally | think the carpen-
tiers offer to its membership as
good a thing in the way of protec-
ton as any other organization,
Briefly here is what we offer for a
monthly due of 10 cents: Death
benefit of 5000, wife $50; a $500
disability fee; $500 per week sick
benefit for first 10 week and $500
for next 10 weeks. | believe this is
as much as any union is doing for
its membership, besides we are try
ing by conservative and reasonable
methods TO advance the interests
of our organization in regard to
hours and wages.

DEALERS DENY
TURKEY TRUST

That Spokane dealers are pass
ing up native turkeys and trying to
force the public to hold Thanksgiv-
ing over cold storage birds, as ad-
vanced in a morning paper, is
denied by the e. H. Stanton Cold
Storage Co. The management
states that practically no cold stor-
age turkeys are being handled on
account of the poor condition they
arrive in.
That the cold storage product is
poor Is shown by the fact that
State Inspector Adams yesterday
condemned more than 1000 pounds
of poultry at the Pacific Express
Co. warehouse. About 800 pounds
Of chicken were also taken from
the Western Express Co. The
stuff was consigned from Omaha
and Kansas.
Dealers here claim turkey is no
higher than last year at this time.
They are selling for 20 cents
pound wholesale and % retail,
which is certainly enough to put
crimp in the calculations of the
average housewife.

Councilman Baldwin will introduce
two ordinances, one for an assist

the other for clerk at $40 a
month. Much opposition is expect

Councilman Lambert will prob
ably insist that If the electrical in
spector is to be given an easy Of
fee job, Plumbing Inspector john
ston, who now has a job claimed to
be too large for one man to proper
ly care for, be also given an assist
ant. Lambert will probably be
backed by Councilmen Estep, Lau-
mer, Dalke, Phillips and possibly
Funk.
NJ S. Pratt will introduce ordi-
nances providing an appropriation
of $62550 to pay the running ex-
penses of the new Office of cleo

balance Of the year, and for $4,440
for 1908. The money is to be used
