ponents amended it in the. house to
read county" alone. Then in the
senate its hackers offered amendment
after amendment in this part of the
bill. They offered to make cities of
the first three classes separate units.
In spite of this 1t was defeated. It
was not the unit that hurt; 1t was
the fact that law breakers knew they
could not sell booze in communities
that wished to be dry. That is whore
the shoe pinched. That was the I'M
usual feature. They undoubtedly
were sincere when they called 1t "un-
reasonable" local option. From their
point of view Il was.
1t is interesting, by the way, to
note that Senator Cameron of this
district. in spite of the petitions sent
him from both Yakima and Benton
counties. is found enrolled among the
killers of the bill. 1t is astounding, in
view of the fact that he has declar-
ed himself for a local option bill
which will allow cities of the various
classes to be separate units.
In fact. any bill which makes "dry"
territory really dry" seems destined
to meet opposition in the senate. But
in view of the party pledge made at
the last state republican convention.
it is not improbable that senators
who voted against making "dry" ter
ritory really dry" may meet with
some opposition from the voters who
know what they want. when the next
election day comes round.

STOMACH
ENDS FIVE MINUTES AFTER
TAKING SOME DIAPEPSIN.
Stops Food Fermentation and Cures
Stomach Trouble Before You
Realize 1t.

Take your sour stOmach--Or may
be you call it indigestion, dyspepsia,
gastritis or catarrh of stomach; it
doesn't matter-take your stomach
trouble right with you to your phar-
macist and ask him to open a So
cent case of Pape Diapepsin and let
you eat one 22-grain triangle and
see if within five minutes there is
left any trace of your stomach
misery.
The correct name for your trouble
is food rmentation-food souring;
the digestive organs become weak,
there is lack of gastric juice; your
food is only half digested, and you
become affected with loss of appe-
tite, pressure and fullness after eat
ing, vomiting, nausea, heartburn,
gripping in bowels, tenderness in the
pit of stomach, bad taste in mouth,
constipation, pain in limbs, sleep
sick headache, nervousness. dizziness
and many other similar symptoms.
If your appetite is tickle, and
nothing tempts you, or you belch
gas or if you feel bloated after eat
ing. or your food lies like lump of
lead on your stomach, you can make
up your mind that at the bottom of
all this there is but one cause-fer-
mentation Of undigested food.
Prove to yourself, after your next
meal. that your stomach is as good
as any; that there is nothing really
wrong. Stop this fermentation and
begin eating what you want without
fear of discomfort or misery.
Almost instant relief is waiting
for you. 1t is merely a matter of
how soon you take little Diapep-
sin.

The Republic, having turned its
keen analytical mind on the subject
of the defeat of the local option bill.
comes to the following conclusion:
THE Anti-Saloon league bill was
in reality an attempt to force proni-
bition upon communities which do
not want it. and it failed for that
reason"
Which. of course, is the veriest
rot. The people of the state. or most
of them. know something abou. that
bill. II was an attempt OF no such
sort. The reason it was defeated was
because the saloon interests saw that
they would be unable to dispose OF
their goods in dry communities,
with this bill made into law. 1t was
booze-tight law. for dry COM
munities. That is all.
Let no one undertake to say that
the bill provided an unsatisfa ctOry
unit. The bill gave the voters choice
of precinct, town or county. Its op-

rGOTHENBURG SALOON AT LAST.

A variety of saloon that has hith-
erto been unknown in America will
be instituted by number of promi-
nent church people of Montclair, n.
j., and there are signs that they will
speedily receive all the unfriendly
attentions that their experiment in
vites. Bishop Potter's ill-advised
subway saloon has not been forgot
" ten and the Montclair institution will
At once be 'oIassed with it.
Opponents of the liquor traffic are
fikely to say that no new variety of
saloon is wanted in America in addi-
zion to the collection that we have.
Yet the chief abuses that have ac-
eompanied the sale of liquor DIN this
country are due to the fact that the
places where it is sold are, generally
speaking, of the one kind known the
world over as 1.-THE American sa-
loon
Some of the European countries
have almost eliminated the excessive
use of liquor by removing the ele-
ment OF profit from its sale and by
providing club and restaurant &C
compartments that act as deterrents
The Montclair experiment seems
to be an imitation of the Gothsnburg
system which has succeeded in Scan
dinavia and on small scale in Eng
land. where it was very recently in
troduced. Henry Smith Williams,
whose convincing indictment of alco-
holic beverages has been published
IN McClure's magazine, says in his
final article that this system, which
Sweden began to develop more than
SO years ago. is the only practical
solution of the liquor problem, to-
sether with the local option princi-
pie. OF course no community need
have even Gothenburg saloon if il
wishes to go dry.
DR. Williams expressed his hope
that the Gothenburg system might
soon be tried in America by ''benevo-
lent corporations similar to those
that control so many of our hospitals
and charitable organizations" and
possibly this movement in New Jer.
sey has come in answer to his ap.
pes;t Spokesman-Review.

stage setting was that of college

titled "a Minister'S Wife," was typ
ical of a boarding school girls life
and was replete with mirth. Some of
the prettiest girls of the church were
seen in the parts. A variety of pro-
gressive gamks afforded much amuse-
ment later. An attractive feature Of
the evening was the colonial cos

Military Ball.

Probably the most elaborate affair
on the weeks calendar was the grand
military ball given Monday evening
by Co. E, n. G.. w, at Teton hall.
Decorations of an unusually elab-
crate nature were used to adorn the
large hall. Festoons of bunting en-
tirely covered the ceiling and were
used about the pillars. Between the
red, white and blue electroliers var
ious colored stars and little flags were
effectively extended. In one corner
OF the hall full moon was supported
in a bank of clouds, shedding a glow
over the brilliant scene during the
moonlight waltzes. The other cor
ner represented the interior of a SOL
diers' camp with the camp fire and
group of pictures of ex-presidents.
The walls were trimmed with hugh
flags and the company's letters in ma
tional colors. At 9 O'Clock Captain

THE WATER QUESTION.

1t is always serious matter Tor
city to undertake change from the
private to the municipal ownership
basis for public utility. Such steps
involve more than is anticipated
when the question is first preached
More than that the vital part of the
whole situation is largely determined
by engineers whose opinion forms
the basis for the decision of the COM
munity as I. whole.
The layman has no way of know
ing absolutely whether an artesian
well can be bored deep enough to
strike an inexhaustible supply. He
does not know whether two wells side
by side will produce two or one and
one-half times as much as one we'll.
He does not know how many gallons
of water are required for popula-
ton of 10000 people every day.
And more than that he does not
know how much it ought to cost to
install new system nor what kind
of system would be adequate.
On the other hand the average
man has pretty good idea when he
is paying more than he ought to pay
for the water he uses. He knows as
rule when he is getting square
treatment in the matter of extension
Of water mains. And he has a pretty
definite idea whether the water that
is furnished him for drinking pur-
poses is pure.
1t is pretty common knowledge
among great many people in this
lor nj hot no
system was not installed for a city
of 10000 people. but for communi-
ity of only a few thousand people.
Private concerns installing water
system in a city rarely if ever main
tain the original ownership for any
great length of time. but sell out as
a rule in 4 few years. either
to the municipality or to a larger
corporation.
1t is we'll known fact that any
thing made to sell is really not the
equal of an article made to use and
ii would be strange indeed if in addi-
ton to these general conditions, the
added growth of this city has not
crowded the present system near
| ~ to the utmost capacity
of the pipes in cases of fire. The
town has outgrown everything else,
| it may have outgrown the present
water system. That would be an
other situation upon which the COM
mittee might secure expert advice
because an Anticipated water system
would be about as bad as none at all,
especially when the city is asked
to pay $4,000 for it.
AS far as the source of supply Is
concerned. it may be found that if
the city supply is taken from the riv-
er, it will be necessary to procure a
filter at the intake. The fact that
reservoirs are being built in the up
per Naches basins. may reduce the
healthy state of the water supply
somewhat and it has already been
demonstrated that an absolutely pure
supply is demanded by the people
of this valley. In fact a pure water
supply, and plenty of it. has been
| found so essential the country over
that almost every city has found il
necessary to install its own water
system for self protection. The coun-
Gil is right in taking the matter up
and is wise Furthermore in proceed
ing cautiously. If the trick can be
turned a municipal water system
adequate and pure, is worth as much
as the advent of another railroad in
to the community.
