CATARRH YIELDS
To Healing Air of Hyomei. Sold Under
Guarantee by A. A. Howes & Co.

Catarrh is the most prevalent disease
known to humanity. Probably ninety per
cent. of the people in this country suffer at
one time or another with this common dis
ease.
1t is a germ disease and hence can be
cured only by some method that will reach
and destroy the germs.
This is best found in Hyomei, which may
be called the direct method of treating
catarrh, as its medication, taken in with the
air you breathe, goes directly to every air
cell in the nose, throat and lungs; kills all
catarrhal germs heals the irritated mucous
membrane and vitalizes the tissues so as to
render catarrh no longer possible.
The unique way in which Hyomei is sold
should dispel all doubt as to its curative
properties, for A. A. Howes & Co. give
their absolute guarantee to refund the price
to any catarrh sufferer that Hyomei fails to
benefit. You do not risk a cent in testing
it's healing powers What offer could be
more fair to you than this, where leading
druggists take all the risk of Hyome giving
satsf action, and leave you to be the judge.

The Belfast Republican Journal
thinks that it is bribery for candidate
for office to promise his constituents a
new steel bridge and fire engine and
is shocked that the Democratic admin
istration has employed men to work ON
the streets. Politics are truly pure
down Belfast way if this is the worst
that can be said by The Journal of its
opponents Waterville Sentinel.
OF course the Sentinel has not stated
the case fairly. That was not to be ex-
pected. But letting it 60 at that. The
Journal could say much more of the
man who is seeking to force himself a
second time upon the taxpayers of Bel
fast, only that it does not choose tom
dulge in personalities or mud-slinglng.

State Tax Commission Turns in
90 Per Cent Valuation

OLYMPIA, Sept. 24.-Assessed
valuations of all property in the
state this year, as reported to the
state board of equalization, aggre-
gates about s7S4, 900, 900, an in
crease af about 5000, 100000 over
the county board aggregate esti-
mates of last year. All county re-
ports are in except personal pro-
perty for Kittitas county. The
state tax commission has completed
it's assessments of railroads and
electric lines except for the few
miles owned by the Washington &
Oregon road.
Real property this year is return
ed at about Sl27 900, 900 more than
in 1907. Timber lands, classified
separately as such this year for the
first time. are valued at nearly S74-
100000 Last year they were
classified as unimproved lands.
Railroads, both steam and cleo
trio tracks, were assessed last year
by the counties at $50, 1882 for
tracks, 1888, 946 for rolling stock.
The personal property rolls in
cluded So, 3O9,912 assessments for
street car property. This year the
state tax commission turns in 90
per cent. valuation for steam roads
alone and rolling stock aggregating
S12O, 1861 S2 and total in addi-
ton of S23,428. 334 for electric
lines, including the Interurbans.
Some changes are to be made by
the tax board in railroad valuations
due to findings by the railroad com
mission that some properties at
Seattle, Spokane and Tacoma
should be classed as commercial
property and not as operating pro
perry, but the steam roads will be
returned to the state board at about
$40, 900, 900 higher valuation than
both they and electric tracks were
assessed last year.
Personal property, as reported
by the count es, so far aggregate
not quite $74, OOO,O 900. This is
nearly $1O,OOO,OOO apparent de
crease from last years total.
The board of equalization held
no hearings today, awaiting tabu
lations of returns and preparation
of data by it's clerks for considera-
ton at tomorrow's meeting.

POLITICAL TURMOIL
THAT MEANS 1T"
Republican Party in Trouble
Up to its Chin

Senatorial ambition, stimulated
nv an extra session, has split the
republican party in Iowa-perhaps
seriously. And yet such thing is
not really serious. 1t is generally
question of the ambition of the
politicians, not the good of the peo-
ole that brings such situations,
albeit they are sometimes signs or
effects, rather than causes. The
rank and file of the republicans in
Iowa have been changing in their
beliefs. A large portion want
tariff reforms. Another large por-
ton do not, so here comes in a
split Of substance. And this is not
an isolated case, though it may be
one Of the plainest declared of such
movements. It looks as if the re-
publican patty had come to the
parting Of ways. Its shibboleth of
protection has become stronger and
more uncompromising another
proof that there is no such thing
as standing still. Just now when
there is nearly a revolt in many
places, and unconcealed dissatis-
faction with the tariff and the fail
ure Of congress to reform it in any
way, we have advanced ground
taken by the standpatters.
So we are likely to see more than
this Iowa disagreement and split,
for as party grows more uncom-
promising more people must leave
It. The La Toilette division in the
northwest is another sign OF the
same kind. What are really demo-
cratic doctrines are near to the
heart Of revolving republicans, and
there is getting to be much of a
mixture. But the profound diff.
1ence is that the democratic party
is in the hands of leaders that mean
reform definite and specified, while
the republican party is in hands
that mean precisely the opposite.
Mr. Taft is allowed to generalize
about the Roosevelt policies, but
the limitations are we'll understood
