ENIPTYING THE CITIES.

The effects of the European war
burdens are seen in the decrease of the
population In the larger cities. Especi-
ally. is this feature marked in Germany.
The American consul at Nuremberg re-
ports that the population of Berlin at
the close of the year 1907 was 2, 111.361;;
ut the close Of the year 1908 IT WAS
only 2,lOS. 1872. q not loss of 4,s69. The
vital statistics of the city he says,
show an excess of births over deaths
of 164l5, but this was more than ball
sanced by a net loss by the emigration
of 2o,S34.
In the month of March, 1908, a month
of great Industrial activity and good
demand for labor, no less than 3o.26S
residents of Berlin left that city for
new fields. Few German cities, he de-
,ciares. show any marked increase in
population during the past year.
1t is natural that the laboring men
Should leave the countries where they
al,sf: tsi&ed to- death rand seek economic
Independence, and that is what the
Germans are doing. There are no more
patriotic people than the Germans, but
when the military burdens become UNI
bearable, they are seeking relief in
other countries.
Military men you'd like to see our
country engage Gin the race for an
kenormons navy and a large standing
army. Do they consider that our COM
parative freedom from military burdens ems
forms one of the great attractions for
men Of other countries who are needed
here to develop our resources and build
homes?

OF BENEFIT TO ALL

Kasparilla is the name of new remedy
most successfully prescribed for world
of troubles" For arrangements of the
digestive organs it is a natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and ali
mentary canal, gently but persistently
stimulating healthy activity. Its bene-
fetal influence extends, however, to every
portion of the system, aiding in the
processes of digestion and assimilation OF
food, promoting a wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, irregularities of the bowels, con.
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi
ness, headache, backache and despond
ency due to inactivity of the liver
kidneys and digestive tract. 1t is 6
strengthening tonic of the highest value
If it fails to satisfy we authorize al

through the mountains having been
previously surveyed says the Walla
Union. This move would benefit the
several raj roads of this section OF
the country. and II is the opinion of
all who have studied the question
that this will be the proposed route
This proposed route Is up Mill
creek, across the Blue Mountains at
an altitude of less than 5000 feet,
down the Wenaha to Troy, and
down the Grande Ronde river to
the Snake, up the latter to Eureka,
and thence across Idaho by the val
ley of the Salmon river. This would
give the Chicago & Northwestern
not only the shortest but the cas-
lest grade route that any railroad
has from the Rocky Mountains to the

the first contracts on the North
Coast extension to Walla Walla, to
]. j. Mangan, who has charge OF
seven miles of perfectly straight
track from Alta la, "and," the Union
goes on to say, 1t is now thought
that beyond doubt this road has
as its object entrance into this val
ley. AS Their survey crosses the Co
