ELECTRICITY IN THE HEART OF ASIA

Something of the march of civili-
zation is shown in an article in the
February number of Scribners, en-
titled 1.-THE West in the Orient" by
Charles NJ. Pepper and dealing with
the wide use Of electricity in the far
corners of the world. Mr.. Pepper
says
There is a plan for utilizing the
tremendous force which lies beyond
the Khyber Pass in the wasted wa
ters of Afghanistan. II is proposed
TO supply electricity for lighting the
forts and military cantonments scat
tered over a large territory and also
for the stations and yards along the
railway lines.
The enterprise contemplates the
construction of trolley lines spreading
out through the dense populations Of
northern India and an electric rail-
way from Postwar up the Khyber
Pass to the British outpost station
there. When l write this article this
project is receiving favorable con-
sideration from the British govern
ment. In some form within the next
few years 1t will be, adopted.
Apropos OF the Himalayas and the
progress of electricity a query is rails
ed regarding Tibet. Is the roof of
the world less susceptible to this pro-
gress than Kashmir. which may be
called the caves? The answer may
be given that the conditions are not
the same, for Kashmir is habitable
by d large number of people, in alti-
tudes ranging from $500 to 10000
feet, while Tibet at $4,000 to 10000
feet could not sustain a large popu-
lation.
Yet should the ultimate outcome
of the British political mission to
Lhassa with its military accompani-
ment be the prospecting of the Him
alayas for gold, and discoveries of
that precious metal be made. the wa
ter-power would be utilized as in the
Kolar gold fields of Mysore.
The influence of the electrical ele-
ment in one of its primary forms al
ready is seen. During the British in
vasion the "lineman' was with the
advance guard of the troops and

CAN'T BE SEPARATED.
Some Pendleton People Have Learned
How TO Get Rid of Both.

How TO Get Rid of Both.
Backache and kidney ache are
twin brothers.
You can't separate them.
And you can't get rid Of the back
ache until you cure the kidney ache.
If the kidneys are we'll and strong
the rest of the system is pretty sure
to be in VIGOROUS health.
Doan's Kidney Pills make strong,
healthy kidneys.
B. Logadon, living at 1928 Y street,
La Grande, Ore. says: 81 have been
subject to attacks of kidney trouble
ard backache for four or five years.
The trouble was always severe and
became more frequent as time went
on. I had pains in my back, head
aches and the secretions from my
kidneys caused me to arise many
times during the night. / had heard
so much about Doan's Kidney Pills
that decided to try them and pro-
cured box. I took them but a short
time when the pains disappeared and
my kidneys were restored 20 their
former good health. / am glad to
recommend Doan's Kidney Pills to
Others"

LOW RATES ON G. N.

the ColOnist Rates.

hll ltecOnSluefS Action Iaken on
the COlonist Rates.
The Great Northern Railway COM
pany, acceeding to popular demand
on the part of both eastern and west
ern men, has reconsidered the deter
mination TO not re-establlsh colonist
rates from the eastern to the western
states, the rates to be in force over
the Hill line this year as usual, says
the Spokane Chronicle.
1t is announced at the local offices
of the company that one-way second
class colonist fares will be authorized
from March to April 30, inclusive
to all points in Idaho, Washington.
British Columbia, Oregon and Cali
fornia.
The fare from the Twin cities and
intermediate points TO Spokane and
territory will be $50. Round trip
homeseekers' tickets will also be sold
on the first and third Tuesday of
each month and will be good for 21
days. The return fare to Spokane
from the same points mentioned
above will be $3.50. The rates are
a third higher this year than last.
Enquiry in the office of the North
ern Pacific developed that the local
office of that company had not yet
received circulars outlining colonist
rates. 1t was stated, however. that
the cOmnanv Nould also hata than,

acute. The angels of light and dark

station without the umbrella. We left
our luggage in the hotel to be brought
to us at the station by the boots. The
