New Kings PretensiOns

Obilitch de al Zarre is known in
America as Theodore NJ Streu. His
claims to the throne of Servia have
been heard of before. He came tc
America three years ago, after Peter
had been elected by the Servian par
lament following the assassination
of King Alexander and Queen Draga
in their palace. Elihu Root, Secretary
of State, examined Streu's papers al
Washington in 1905 and said they
were at least worthy of notice
Streu commissioned Colonel Nc
Gregor his military chieftain last
February. Here is the commission:
To whom it may concern.-Greet-
ing:
|, Theodore Max Streu, Del Gratia
King of Servia, colonel of infantry
commander of the American Brigade
of Sappers and Miners and aide de
camp upon my personal staff TIC
said brigade, attached to my foreign
legion, | promise to fulfill all prom
ises made in my behalf by Colonel
McGregor as my agent as soon as
possible after my coronation
Given under my hand and seal this
10Th day Of February, 1908
God save Seryia!
Theodore Max Streu, King.
Armed with this commission Col
onel McGregor has organized 5000
men. In the meantime Streu has
been trying to raise money, and he
appeals particularly to the Jews and
the Catholics for aid. If he regains
the throne he will, he declares, pro-
claim civil and religious liberty SUI
premacy of the Greek church will be
done away WITH Servia will be made
a refuge for the Russian Jews, who
are so prosecuted, and all people will
be welcomed 1t is his dream also
to unite the aBlkan nations into one
great country and to set at rest for
ever that terrible bugaboo, war in
the Balkans"
Revelation of the Servian claim
ants plans came through a letter
written him a few days ago by Col
onel McGrtgor. The letter from the
commanding general went astray.

What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer' s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulflls every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
1t corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcones that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp Root
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug
gists in ffty-cent and one-dollar sizes.

Let Something Good Be Said

When over the fair fame of friend or
foe
The shadow of disgrace shall fall;
instead
Of words of blame, or proof of thus
and so,
Let something good be said.
Forget not that no fellow-being yet
May fall so low but love may lift his
head,
Even the cheek of shame with tears
is wet,
If something good be said.
No generous heart may vainly turn
aside
In ways of sympathy; no soul so
But may awaken strong and glori-
fed,
If something good be said.
And so l charge ye, by the thorny
crown,
And by the cross on which the
Savior bled,
And by your own souls hope of fair
renown,
Let something good be said!

The primary then, is really more
important than the regular fall cleo

Locally speaking, it at all times is
more important than the general
election, as you shut out undesir-

Walla Walla-The jury In the case

murder of Mrs. Anna Aldrich, re-
turned a verdict last week of murder
in the first degree This was Barnes
second trial, the first resulting in q
disagreement.
The jury returned its verdict after
having been out of the courtroom as
minutes. The jury also returned a
verdict to the effect that the plea of
the defendant of former jeopardy and
acquittal had not been established,
and that he was not acquitted for the
crime charged in the information by
reason of anything alleged in said
plea.
This later verdict was returned in
accordance with instructions from
the court, as some technicality had
arisen over the action of the court
in discharging the former Jury with
out the consent of the defendant.
