OUGHT TO ISSUE
CREDENTIALS NOW

Wouldn't it be a good scheme
for the police department to issue
credentials to every citizen in the
city so that when people go to work
early in the morning Or late at
night, they will arrive at their des
tination and not in jail?"
This question sums up the
thoughts of w. Y. Pyle of College
and Maple streets, after an expert
ence with the police this morning.
Pyle and his son, who are jani
tors at the Washington theater
were on their way to their work at
4 ;15 o'clock this morning, and were
hurrying along at rapid pace
when they were suddenly confront
ed by a blue coat and put through
an examination.
The copper was finally convinced
that the two were neither riotous
/. w. VS. or crooks and allowed
them to go.

THOUSANDS OF
NEW SETTLERS
(By United Press)

PORTLAND, Ore, Nov. l1.-Low
one way colonist rates to the Pa
cific coast from the east brought
thousands of new settlers to Wash
ington and Oregon during the
month ending October Is. The O.
r. & N. Co. has compiled the total
brought on that line alone and
finds no less than 1884 newcomers
were passengers on o. r. & N
trains to the two states and found
permanent homes here. The Hill
lines added very heavily to this
figure, so that, on the whole, the
two states have large addition of
citizens from the coming of the
colonists.
The o. r. & N passenger depart
ment reports that this years travel
of the colonist class is heavier than
for a similar period of last season,
although the total of newcomers Is
less because the colonist season
was shorter. 1t was expected that
because of the attractive railroad
rates to the Seattle fair, colonist
business would fall off somewhat
this year over former fall move
ments of this kind. But the actual
figures indicate that he tide of
travel from the east is setting
toward the two states stronger
than ever.

They came to the conclusion that
every man who was thus starving
himself was wasting his vitality
and could not cause the city to suf-
fer financially for it. They de.
clare it is not sign of weaken
ing spirit in the fight.
LULL IN FIGHT
A decided lull is noted in the
fight today. Few men went out to
defy the police. and 1t is evident
that preparations are on foot for
a new system of attack. Leaders
are waiting for new recruits from
throughout the Pacific northwest
and middle west, for the local
ranks are thinning to such extent
that men must be taken from the
reserve force soon.
RECRUITS ON WAY
Funds and recruits are expected
from as far east as Chicago with.
in the next few days and more
men are being rushed In from
Butte to carry On the fight. The
banner calling for an uncondition
al surrender of all prisoners in the
city jail before any means of truce
shall be considered is still hanging
in conspicuous place in the hall
Not single arrest for street
speaking has been made today.
Nearly a score of government
emigration sIeuths of various ma.
tionaities and from all over the
entire Pacific northwest. Idaho
and Montana, are declared to be
in Spokane, ferreting out aliens
participating in the |. w. w. free

Some of the detectives are report
ed to be in jail, submitting to the
"hunger strike" in their diIieent

made subject to deportation under

Aside from these government

flooded with Pinkerton men-the
worst enemies of the revolutions
lists while trying to conduct an or
derby fight. These men, a number
of whom are declared to have been
recognized by members of the l.

operated in the disorders at Gold

Eczema Cured in Simple Way
No More Dosing the Stomach
Cure the Skin Through the Skin.

When you have a scratch on
your hand you wash it out and
cleanse it and then the skin cures
! itself.
The best skin specialists today
are agreed that the only way to
cure the skin is through the skin.
For statistics show that nearly all
eczema sufferers are perfectly
healthy in all other ways except
as to their skin. And if the ecze-
ma patients were really suffering
from an internal malady, the en-
tire body and not only the skin
would be diseased.
You can prove Immediately the
relief of a true skin cure by using
oil of wintergreen as compounded
in d. d. d. Prescription. This
liquid kills the disease germs,
while toning up the healthy part of
the skin.
We have now handled this mer-
| itorious and thoroughly scientific
remedy for so long and have seen
| its reliable results so many times
that we freely express our conf
dence.

The presidents daughter has a

comparatively little time in Wash

president. During these periods
she has been continually entertain

was made very plain that these
were merely informal affairs, chill
dren's parties they were called. But
the Thanksgiving season will be
full of gayety for the youngsters in
society this year, and Helen Taft
return from Bryn Mawr is eagerly
anticipated.
The friendships made among the
young girls of her own age by the
daughter of the president date for
the most part back to her school
days when she and Ethel Roosevelt
went out to the National Cathedral
school. and wore their hair braided
down their backs and topped off
