pain in just a few min
utes. Ask your druggist
There are $4,000 druggists

headache. They relieve
pain without leaving any
disagreeable after-effects
isn't that what you
want?
My son Frank Snyder has used
DIR. Miles Anti-Pain Pills for a long
time. He never had anything to
help him so much for headache. A
year ago he came home. and was
down sick with such a dreadful merry
pus headache. lie gave me one Of
the Anti-Pain Pills. and after while
I took anothar and was entirely re
heved. ! always keep them in the

idea of Sending Mortgaged
Men to National Conven-
tons Not Liked.
BRYAN'S FRIENDS ALARMED
MOVEMENT SWEEPING DEMO-
CRATIC RANKS is NEITHER FOR
OR AGAINST "PEERLESS LEAD
Err" BUT FOR INTEREST OF ALL.

Washington, March 25.--The belief
IS growing that the delegates to Meth
er the republican national convection
nor the democratic national conVen-
ton will be mortgaged in advance OF
the conventions. The tendency is now
distinctly toward permitting the dele
gates to each convention to exercise
mature judgment after they get to-
Sether in the convention cities.
All the information received here
from out over the country indicates
that there is to be a halt called in the
movement TO bind the delegates to the
Chicago convention. The most influ-
ential men in the republican party are
becoming insistent that the delegates
shall be left free to do what seems to
be the wise thing after they assemble
at the convention city. OF course, the
managers of the Taft candidacy, who
started out to have delegates instruct
ed. whether or not, are not in sympa-
thy with the demand that a halt shall
be called, but the indications are that,
in spite of their opposition, States and
districts will from this on be slow to
instruct.
The one point being pressed home
by the party leaders is that the party
must not tie itself up to any candi-
date until it has made sure that it
can elect him.
Same With the Democrats.
The rapid growth of the movement
within the democratic party in favor
of holding an open convention at Den
yer has startled some of the friends
of William J. Bryan. A good many
democrats who are not hostile to Bry
an and who would accept his nomin-
alton with complacency if he were the
choice of the convention are greatly
opposed to having the party's hands
tied SO that the convention might not
act upon its judgment at the critical
hour.
Any Man Except Bryan.
New York democrats say that al
most any man nominated except Mr..
Bryan can carry New York and that
they have no disposition to force the
nomination of any candidate of their
ment that opposes Mr.. Bryan.
In Interest of no One Man.
The present movement, which has
gained considerable Roadway, is not
one distinctly of antagonism to MIR.
Bryan. and is distinctly not in the in
terests of any other one particular
candidate, the purpose of it being
tn no 90
choice of the convention open to be
decided by two-thirds vote of the
convention itself, with a certainty on
iy that should Mr.. Bryan fail of the
nomination the choice will not fall up
on any one against whom he has any
personal objections, or who could be
regarded in any sense as hostile to
the element of the party which strong
~ supported Mr.. Bryan both in 1896
and 1900.

WILD MAN CAUGHT
At Liberty LAKE

The maniacial shrieks of an in
sane man today has kept the coun-
ty Jail in an uprOar. Every effort
to calm him has failed. He is
strapped down to bunk and tied
so he cannot harm himself. His
name is A. c. Adams. This much
has been elected from his insane
talk while he is not emitting blood
curdling shrieks.
He appeared suddenly at Liberty
lake yesterday afternoon without a
stitch of clothing on him and
scared the natives considerable.
Finally five men grapplei with him
and subdued him. Sheriff Doall and
Deputy Long then went out and
brought him in to the county Jail,
The sheriff purchased clothing for
him this morning, but they haven't
got. more than shirt on him yet.
But they hope by night to have the
rest of the clothes on him.
Nothing is known of his history.
He appeared at Liberty lake as sud
denly as if he came up out of the
ground. The first anyone saw OF
him was when he appeared among
them with a wild shrek
1t is possible that he is the mys-
FERROUS stranger who at divers
times appeared naked and dressed
and frightened residents south of
this city.

KICK ON PHONE
RATE|NCREASE

Northside residents have been
rather puzzled lately by the new
two party line proposition present
ed by agents of the Pacific States
Telephone Co. In order to benefit
the service the patron is informed
that he can secure the two party
line for 81 per month, so cent in
crease. Many of the patrons have
been given the impression that
they were expected to sign up the
new agreement regardless of exist
ing contracts. Thy kick on the in
crease. Manager McGoughan says
that the change is entirely optional
and no compulsion is intended. He
says that the increased charge is
made necessary in benefitting the
service. but the patrons cannot see
why they should be made to pay
the bill for something that is to
benefit the company as much as
themselves. A gain of so cents
from every subscriber in a city OF
this size would mean fortune add
ed to the annual revenue OF the
company without additional ex-
pense to the company so far as the
subscriber is aware.

SUGGESTIONS
ANYBODY THAT CAN TELL HIM
HOW TO BUILD THE MONROE
BRIDGE MAY FIRE IN THE
INFORMATION.

In regard to a meeting on the
Monroe st. bridge question which is
soon to occur between the mayor
and residents near the bridge, the
mayor this morning stated that he
desires particularly that the people
try to solve the problem of a new
bridge for him. He cOnfesses that
he has reached the limit Of his cal
culations after his Washington st.
bridge experience, and wants to be
shown how to build a 100000
bridge with the $125,000 that will
be left of the bridge fund. The
mayor suggests that it will be ne
cessary to bond the city for a suf-
ficient sum if a new bridge is to be
built.

The supreme court has reversed the
district court in the case OF Beeghley

firm sued for commission on selling

did not earn the commission and ap'
pealed the case. Hurd & Hurd were
her attorneys.
The courts opinion iollows'
"a real estate agent employed to
find purchaser for farm, entered
into q written contract for sale with q
prospective buyer, which was ma
terially different from, and less ad'
vantageous to the seller than the
terms upon which she had authorized
a sale to be made. This contract was
sent 10 the owner for her assent and
ratification. In her letter acknow-
Lodging receipt thereof, she used the
words, "I congratulate you upon

making SALE" Other parts Of the
letter, however, indicate that she was
not satisfied, and had referred the
matter to her agent for examination
and consideration.
"It further appeared that she, at
the same time, sent the contract to
her agent calling his attention to
parts thereof to which she objected,
and instructed him not to close the
trade until these matters were satis-
iactorily adjusted. The parties failed
to agree. and no sale was made.
"Held that In an action BY the
agent to recover commission upon the
ground that the unauthorized con-
tract had been assented to and ratified
by the owner OF the land, the language
above quoted, standing alone, is in
sufficient to sustain a verdict for the
plaintiff"

Gen. Supt. J. Q. Brinkerhoff came
in this morning in his private car to
discuss with the city officials the
matter Of building more openings un-
der the Union Pacific tracks so that
water from the northside Of town may
drain to the southside and find its
way to the river. A meeting Of the
club and city officials vas
held in Wyandt's office and talks ex-
planning the city's needs and demands
were made'by Mayor Rice and others.
Then Mr.. Brinkerhoff was taken over
the city along the tracks in G, A.
Rogers automobile accompanied by a
number Of citizens.
"You can rest assured" said he,
..'that the Union Pacific will do every
thing that is fair in this matter.
There is no doubt Of the need OF bet
ter drainage. But before we open
under our tracks to let more water
through the city must make certain
that 1t can care for the water on the
other side and carry it to the river or
creek without iniuring property.
