NEED STRINGENT LAWS TO
CHECK TRAMP EVIL

Reports just compiled ut the general
offices of the Pennsylvania railroad
show that during the year 1908 657 tres
passers were killed and 791 injured on
the lines of the Pennsylvania system
cast and west of Pitt burg, For 1907
reports show 1922 trespassers killed
Thus during the past two fears on the
Pennsylvania system alone 40 persons
have lost their lives in this way
These figures are pointed to Us en-
phasizing the recommendation in the
recent annual reports of the state rail
road commissions of Pennsylvania and
Indiana that laws should be enacted
providing substantial punishment for
all persons who trespass upon the pri-
vate rights of way Of any steam or
electric railway.
These cases of trespass are not only II
source of expense and danger to the
railroad and its patrons but it is felt
that common humanity should prompt
the most thorough measures to elimi-
nate this evil as rapidly az possible.
If these men frequent the company's
tracks and yards they are certain to be
killed OF injured no matter how careful
the trainmen may be. Yet trespassers
have no business whatever upon the
right Of way of Il railroad
The extent of the trcspassing abuse
As to be found not only in the figures
showing the number Of persons killed
or injured while treaspasSing, but also
IN the fact that during, the year 1908,
according to the figures just compiled,
2,9S0 persons We're arrested for tres
passing. 442 for vagrancy and O,451
for illegal train riding on the lines of
the Pennsylvania system. During the
year 1907 the arrests for these causes
numbered 1888.
The management of the Pennsylva-
MIA hopes that the bringing to public
attention of the above unfortunate con-
ditiOns may serve to enlist still further
support for the railroad commissions
and the railroad companies. which are
seeking to bring this evil to an end.
In England, where there is a much
greater amount of unemployment than
IN this country and where the density
OF population is much greater, railroad
trespaSsing is almost nonexistent, and
chat is brought about by the stringent
laws which are enforced to prevent it.

CANNOT SECURE TITLE

Three more protests on final proof
to homesteads in Southern Douglas
county have come to light here, max
ing eight in all. The people are
amazed at the state of affairs, and
have taken the matter up direct with
President Roosevelt and Secretary Of
the Interior Garfield. Unless some
thing is done regarding these pro-
tests all the south part of the coun-
ty will suffer a serious setback.
The homesteaders whose final
proofs have been held up recently
are Henrietta B. Castle, Benjamin
Topper and J. E. Hubbell. Miss Cas-
ties homestead is on Frenchman
Hill, and the others are in the vii
lage of Moses Lake, where five 9TH
ers have been protested. These pro-
tests have been made either by
Chief of Field Division Edward P.
Dixon, or have been filed with him.
His headquarters are In Spokane.
Under a rule established by Secretary
Hitchcock it was not necessary for
the inspector to give the homestead
er any information as to who filed
the protests, or what the grounds for
protest were. This leaves the home
steader in the dark. 1t was under
stood that Secretary Garfield had
modified this ruling.
Protests have previously been filed
on the homestead proofs of Adam w.
Schroyer, Amos N. Brill, Howard P.
Wilcox, Charles w. Hull and William
E. Atwood. Mr.. Wilcox sailed on Mr..
Dixon several months ago, and in
quired concerning the protest. but
was told that the matter would be
looked into. Since then, nothing has
been done but to file more protests.
| Reputable citizens, fully CONVEX
SAINT with the work and proofs made
by these homesteaders, say they have

of the homestead law. What particu-
larly excites comment is the fact hat
these particular homesteaders are
thought to have gone farthest in
complying with the law, and no one
thought of the possibility Of a pro-
test Some of these places are
among the best improved in the
Moses Lake country.
The effect of these protests Is ~
delay development of the country.
Seven homesteaders made proof here
this week, and are anxiously await
ing the result. The homesteaders
can offer no explanation. A signifi-
cant fact that hay have something
TO do with the situation is that the
pre- posed new railroad from Conneii
to Adrian passed through some OF
these homesteads. The. homesseaders
will hold meeting soon.

Shows Talent Early.
The baby first showed his athletic
propensities when he was four
months of age. Neither the father
or mother are athletic, but the boy
was not backward in showing his
talent, and at first the parents did
not encourage the baby to do his
tricks" Little Orlan did not wait
for parental encouragement, but glee-
fully went through all Of his stunts
for his admiring friends.
The baby is slightly built, but his
flesh is firm, unlike that Of most chill
dren, and his muscles highly devel-
oped. He measures from finger tip
| to finger tip 81 inches. His chest
measure is nineteen. His legs are
ISL inches long, and his arm 9 in
ches.
He Is just learning to walk and is
extremely bright. He Is good ma
tured and has seldom cried. If he
has a mishap during any of his ath-
letic performances he will laugh and
try all over again. His mother calls
him "fresh air" baby, as she keeps
him out all day and he Is only in
the house at bed time.
Baby is Marvel.
"My baby is more of a marvel to
me than any one else" said Mrs
French. "My husband and / are be.

I find him attempting all sorts Of

II It Disappears, It's Eczema.

How to Tell Whether a Skin Aztec
tIon is an Inherited Blood Disease
or Not.
Sometimes it is hard to determine
whether skin affection is sign Of :

puzzled in their diagnosis. The best
way for any one afflicted is to go to
W. H. Sudhoff's or any good druggist
who handles pure drugs and obtain SO
cents worth of poslam. Apply this
and if the itching stops at once and
the trouble is cured in a few days II
may be set down as having been ecze-
ma, as this is the way poslam acts in
the worst cases of eczema, and in cur
