Siano That Isn't Slang.

eve are so used to slang" said the
woman who reads, ''that we have fall
en- into the habit of including In that
category almost every unusual word
or phrase-for example, the verb to
fave which means to battle, to con-
fuse, to perplex. That word Is mis-
spelled variously phase, phaze, pheaze
and feaze. 1t is not slang, and any
woman may use it without fear, for 1t
is as good English as any other In the
language. Shakespeare employs 1t,
spelling it 'faze,' as It should be spell
ed. Then there is the phrase lie
down. which almost everybody re-
cards as slangy when used In the
sense of surrender to obstacles or IA
tigue. It, too, is not slang.

than Thomas a Kempis, who certainly

saws: Love feels no burden, thlnAs
nothing of trouble, attempts what Is

all things, and it completes many
things and warrants them to take el-
feet where he who does not love Wouio

Geo. E. Judson, assistant pur-
chasing agent Of the l. & w. N.
Railroad, is at a Spokane hospital
where he will be operated upon for
cancer of the intestines probably
today. Mr. Judson's disease has
been of long standing, but recent
consultation with local physicians
resulted in the conclusion that the
trouble was cancer. Mr.. Judson
went to Spokane Monday, where
further consultation was had with
DR.. Martin, who is associated with
the local hospital physicians in an
advisory capacity in certain cases.
The consultation with DR.. Martin
resulted in a concurrence with
Drs. Prindle and Hammond in
their diagnosis of the case and an
immediate operation was decided
necessary. This was to have taken
place Tuesday, and DR.. Prindle
went to spokane to be present, but
after consideration of the serious
ness of the operation it was post
poned until today to give time for
the arrival of a brother from Seat
tie. The operation is very deli
cate one and the case extremely
serious, yet the patients many
friends in Spirit Lake are hopeful
of his ultimate recovery.-Spirit

Lumber Production

The federal report concerning
the production of lumber in the
United States during the year of
1907 has been issued, and contains
some interesting statistics regard
ing this great industry. While the
figures show gain in production as
compared with 1906, still this is
partially explained by the fact
that reports were more complete
than they have been, and. although
many sawmills and plants still
fail to report to the government
officials, a larger percentage of
them do than ever before. This,
naturally, makes the report OF
more imposing dimensions.
The state of Washington heads
the list of states as lumber pro-
ducer. Louisiana ranked second
position held by her the year be-
fore, as we'll. Texas came up from
eighth to third, due in part to
complete returns received, it is
likely. Mississippi rose one place
in rank, from fifth to fourth. and
Wisconsin dropped from third to
fifth, These first five states cut
almost third of the entire lumber
cut during the year. Arkansas
held her position of sixth, while
Michigan dropped from fourth to
seventh, followed by Pennsylvania,
Minnesota and Oregon; in the order
named. 1t is to be noted that
there is heavy falling away in the
great white pine districts.
Production in Washington was
estimated at 3,777,6O6, 900 feet, as
against 4,3O5, O53,OO0 feet in 1906,
falling away fully accounted for
by the trade and rate conditions
fully understood in the Pacific
northwest. In Oregon the cut OF
1908 was 1904, 1876, 900 feet. accord
ing to the estimates, while in 1907
it was 1,635.563,00O feet, slight
gain. It is safe to say that the cut
of both these states was greater
than was estimated.

hilIyard Shops To Be Enlarged

Hillyard, Wash. Dec. 2O.-A
party of Great Northern surveyors
was in the city the latter part of
last week, laying out the ground, it
is claimed, for the proposed en-
largement Of the Great Northern
shops. Plans have been made for
improvements amounting to be-
tween 100000 and $25O,OOO. The
machine shop is to be enlarged
from seven-pit to 20-pit shop,
giving increased facilities for re-
pairing locomotives. The floor
space of the coach shop will be
doubled and several stalls will be
added to the round house. The
other buildings will also be en-
larged.
With the enlargement of the
shops will come the necessity OF
enlarging the repair and storage
tracks, as these are overcrowded
now.
These plans will quiet any fears
that the machinists might have
entertained because of frequent ru-
mors that the shops were to be re-
moved to Newport.
Shop officials today refused to
give out any details of the proposed
changes. but admitted that they
are contemplated, Hillyard will
now be able to handle as much re-
pair work as any shop center on
the system.

AAOSiuCu0-OiCCe L an udS oCicCLcu
,, Senator Knox, of Pennsylvania, as
secretary of state to take the place
OF Secretary Root, who will retire
next March.
The selection of Senator Knox
indicates that the president-elect
intends to- look after the interests
of the common people, as we'll as
some Commoner people that we
have heard Of. AS attorney gen.
eral Senator Knox made an en-
viable record in his efforts in be-
half of the people. Below is a
short resume of few of the things
that he accomplished:
Senator P. c. Knox is native
of Pennsylvania. He was appoint
ed to the cabinet as attorney gen.
eral by President Mckinley in 1901.
He was reappointed to the same
position by President Roosevelt,
and resigned in 1904 to accept the
United States senatorship from
Pennsylvania to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of M. S. Quay.
Attorney General Knox scored
his first great victory against the
Northern Securities Co. in 1903.
This case was before the supreme
court and resulted in the dissolu-
ton of the railroad combine.
1t was under Mr.. Knox's admin
istration of the department of JUS
tice that the great packing corpor-
atoms received a severe blow to
their long practice of fixing the
prices OF meat. The fight he made
against the packers drove them to
the shelter of a demurrer to pre-
vent the publicity of evidence col
lected by the government. His
arguments and personal manage
ment of many other cases against
trust evils are history.
For the first time in the nations
history Attorney General Knox
asserted the right of the govern
ment to intervene in private dam
age suits, as a result of which the
defeat of a workman who had sued
the Southern Pacific Railroad un-
der the safety appliance act was
turned into a victory. In 1901 he
secured his first conviction under
the peonage laws of the United
States. During his administration
also the practice Of mailing lottery
tickets was broken up. The right
of the immigration officers to de-
tain and deport alien anarchists
seeking entrance to the United
States was upheld by the supreme
court, during the Knox admins
ton. He also successfully de-
Tended the Chinese exclusion act.
He started the prosecution and
secured the convictions in the first
land fraud cases. Under the law
giving the attorney general the
right to employ special counsel, the
work of Francis J. Heney in the
western land fraud cases was be-
gun and continued under Attorney
General Knox, in the face of the
most influential opposition.

Would Not Pay Charges.

He was an impecunious nobleman
with air castles In sunny France. Aft
er much deliberation he sent the fol-
lowing note to the pretty heiress:
Dear Miss-I love you, but do not know
how to express myself. How would you
advise? COUNT DE BUST.
And the heiress penned the follow
ing:
Dear Count-Expreas yourself any way
you wish except c. o. D., ~ you are not
worth the charges.

If every family in this town
would do all their trading with
their home merchants, they would
not only benefit the town, but
themselves as we'll.
Every cent spent in ordering
goods from agents who represent
foreign merchants, and who never
vet sold yard, pound or an
ounce of anything one penny
cheaper than your home merchants
can sell the same things to you, is
so much drawn out of circulation
in our town and given to outsiders.
While this is free country and
people have right to purchase
where they please, yet why buy
from foreign agents when you gain
nothing by it?
Besides, it is wrong in principle,
and if generally practiced would
ruin any community.
Every business place in the town
adds to the towns prosperity.
Every business place forced to close
it's doors by reason of insufficient
patronage, helps kill the town.
Your home merchants are al
ways ready to accommodate you.
They always make good any mis-
take, while from out of town mer-
chants who have got your money,
you must take whatever is sent.
Then, again, the more patronage
your home merchant has, the better
assortment he can keep and the
more reasonable prices he can offer
yon.
The home merchant helps pay
for the schools, the churches, the
public buildings, the improve
ments of all kinds, the parks, the
pavements, and everything of
public nature by which town is
Judged and which adds to the well
fare of every man, woman and
child in the town.
The fellow who comes here and
solicits your trade and gets it, robs
your town of just that much.
Ii we have good schools we must
have a prosperous community.
If we keep up our streets and
public improvements and make the
town a pleasant one for the strang-
err, the more strangers will visit US.
In fact, help your town.
Boost it by patronizing home
institutions of all kinds.
Don't be fooled by the oily,
smooth agent who cares only for
yonr money.-Exchange.

MAKING A LITTLE SPLASH
THAT'S ALL.

Scientists having come to the con-
clusion that man, after all, really has
a soul, a spirit within his material
body, and that this has an existence
after death of the physical casket,
the magazines are all exploiting the
fact as wonderful new thing.
Just now the public is being treat
ed to a number of articles on the
line OF wonderful evidences that
man has an existence at
ter death in a spirit world After
reading a number of them the aver
age man is apt to turn to the good
old Bible with feeling of WEAKNESS
and find more spiritual satisfaction
and hope therein than in all the al
legged scientific experiments and dis
coveries that can be exploited in a
hundred years.
The world has realized, except a
few scientists, of course, that man
was a dual thing, for thousands of
years. In two or three months more
the popular magazines, having work
ed the new vein 10 death, will cast it
aside like a sucked out orange. and
endeavor to find something new to
awaken popular curiosity and inter
est and increase sales and profits
But the vast mass of thinking. be-
lieying men and women will go right
on in the faith of the fathers, facing
life and death with a calm assurance
in immortality that does not need the
alleged discoveries of slate writing
mediums. OF the apparitions of spirit
workers, to give it increasing strength
: and unshakable confidence.
The world wiggles all around trying
to get away from the truths of the
Scriptures, but wiggle as it will il
finally comes right back to them And
thousand years from now men and
lwomen will draw their inspiration and
faith from the Bible just as they have
been doing for the past nineteen cen
turtles. Scientists throw pebbles into
the ocean of eternity and make lit
tie splash. That is about all
