triple-refined glycerine, aided by GER

heat and with the aid of apparatus and
appliances designed for that purpose, ex-
tract from our most valuable native me-
dicinal roots their curative properties
much better than by the use Of alcohol,
so generally employed. So the now world

In an editorial on the stSteamer
War on the Island Run" the Belling-
ham Revellle says 1t is really remark
able how much travel is developing
between this city and the San Juan
islands. All summer there have been
three boats day each way. with the
Inland Navigation Company's steamer
also running every other day. Next
season this number will be increased
and the fare will be reduced in pro
portion. This is one run where the
steamboat men do not fear railway
competition. The same paper says
that the Valentine has retired
from the route and that the Yale "a
swifter boat than the Flyer" is being
made ready to enter the race. while
the owner of the Falcon. 'the best
boat Of her class in these waters
threatens to put her on the island
route and keep her there all winter. !"
In the meantime sthe faithful old
Islander" which. by the way. is not
very old. steams steadily on the run,
summer and winter and in all kinds
of weather.

Supreme Court
Justice Milo A. Root

1868. in Bureau county, Illinois.
where be lived until he was thirteen
years of age. His parents we're farm
ers and. like most others in that then
frontier country. they were people Of
very limited means. SO young Root
was brought up to hard work and the
practice of rigid economy. His early
education was obtained during the
winter terms Of the district school
and in evening study with his parents.
When he was thirteen his parents
moved with their family to Western
New York. He attended the Albion
high school. from which he graduated
with hohors. and then attended and
graduated from the Albany Law
School.
In the early fall of 1888 Mr.. Root
came to Washington territory. arriv
ing without money. friends. acquaint-
ances or influence. Being unable to
practice law not being twenty one
years old-and not finding a position
in law Office. he went to work in the
woods until he obtained school to
teach at Elma. in Chehalis county, in
which he was so successful that the
directors. after a month. voluntarily
raised his ealary from $40 to sos per
month.
AT the close OF his school Mr.. Root
went to Olympia and began the prac-
tice of law. being admitted to the bar
in June, 1884. by Judge Hoyt, Judge
Hanford being chairman of the com
mittee that examined and recommend
ed him for admission. He served two
successive terms as probate Judge of
Tnurston county in territorial days
and after statehood served two terms
as prosecuting attorney.
In 1897 Judge Root moved to
Seattle and engaged in the active
practice of law until appointed by
the governor as judge of the supreme
court in January. 1905. In 1906 be
was elected to succeed himself for the
short term ending January. 1909.
He is now candidate on the nom
partisan judiciary ticket to succeed
himself for the full term of six years.
On March 4. 1890. Judge Root
was married to Miss Anna Lansdale,
daughter of DR.. r. II. Lansdale. an
old pioneer of Washington. They
have SIX children. Although very
busy man, Judge Root has always
found time to assist organizations for
charitable work and public improve
ments of all kinds. Many interesting
incidents are told in Olympia of his
unostentatious kindness to poor. dis
tressed people during the hard times
of 1893 to 1896. He is at the present
time president of the State Society Of
Charities and Corrections and an
officer and member of several benevo
lent associations OF Seattle.
Roots popularity as Judge is due,
not only to bis legal ability, but to
bis broad common sense. his under
standing of industrial and commercial
conditions. his familiarity with active
law practice and his absolute fearless
ness.

Gossip in New York Affixes
Him as Tail OF Hughes
Political Kite
PLANS ALLIANCE WITH IOWA
Washington Says Shaw Is Not Yet
Convinced That He Can Not Secure
Iowa Delegation for First Place on
National Ticket Trust Company
Deal Explained.

New York, Jan. 24.-There was a
stir among the hackers of Charles 10
Hughes for the presidency at the an
nouncement that Leslie M. Shaw, for
mer secretary OF the treasury, had re-
signed from the Carnegie Trust Com
pany to run for the republican nomi-
nation for president, and it was not
long before it was said there was a
deal on foot which contemplated this
ticket:
For president, Charles L, Hughes,
of New York; for vice president, Les
lie NJ Shaw, of Iowa.
Meanwhile Mr. Shaw explained that
he would not leave the trust company
before next March, but he did not de-
ny that he contemplated return to
the realm Of active political life. His
friends declare that the next few weeks
will find him back in Iowa
One of the officials of the Carnegie
Trust Company, who is supposed to
be cognizant of Mr.. Shaw's plans, de-
clared that it was the intention of Mr..
Shaw to capture the Iowa delegation
to the republican national convention
for Governor Hughes, and that in re-
turn for his service the Hughes fac
ton would give him the second place
on the ticket. 1t was pointed out that
Mr.. Shaw is an avowed candidate for
the presidency, but that he really
hopes to capture only the second place
on the ticket 1t would be impossible
for him to announce himself as a can
didate for the vice presidency, but 1t
was stated yesterday afternoon that
it was pretty well understood by the
Hughes republicans that Mr. Shaw
was slated to be the governors running
mate should ME capture the nomina-
ton.
Mr.. Shaw stated today that he has
not resigned from the presidency OF
the Carnegie Trust Company, but had
contracted to sell his holdings in the
company, and if paid according te
terms would resign on March l. He
declined to discuss the differences
which have existed between him and
Mr.. Dickinson, who, with his immed1-
ate family, owns the control of the in
stitution. MIR. Shaw says he came te
the Carnegie Trust Company on his re-
tirement from the secretaryship OF
the treasury on March 4 under a con-
tract with Mr.. Dickinson and his asso-
ciates in control at a salary of $3600o
a year. When it developed that Mr..
Shaw and Mr.. Dickinson differed as to
policy and methods, Mr.. Shaw pro-
posed purchasing control of the insti-
tuition, but Mr.. Dickinson declined to
consider the offer, and Mr.. Shaw
therefore contracted to sell to Mr.
Dickinson. Mr.. Shaw says his best
wishes remain with the institution, and
he hopes for its continued success.
Mr.. Shaw refused to discuss his po-
litical ambitions, further than to sa!
that he is as much interested Gin the
wise solution of public questions as
ever" and is as certain in his convic-
tions that the continued success of the
party in power is essS stial to that end
He has made no arrangement for
his business future.

snowbaIIs Put Out Fire.

Johnstown. Pa. - Probably the most
remarkable manner of eXtinguishing a
fire was seen at Boswell, a mining
town near here, when hundreds of
men, women. boys and girls saved the
town from destruction by throwing
snoWballs.
The town has no fire department
and water is scarce. The flames had
gained much Roadway and build
ing in which was stored sufficient
powder to blow up the village was
threatened.
AS a last resort virtually the en-
tire population began throwing
thousands of snowba!ls. made from
soft, wet snow, and after a time
prevented the explosion and con-
fined the flames to half dozen
buildings.
