TUNNEL WORK FITS
WITH PRECISENESS

In more than one of its details the
work of constructing the tunnel at st.
Paul pass has established a world s
record. Yesterday morning The Mis-
soulian gave in a general way the
figures which represent the remark
able progress which was made in the
tunnel building through the Bitter
Root mountains; these figures are suf-
ficiently astonishing to attract atten-
ton; they show that there was never
before in the history of engineering
such speed made in the construction
of q tunnel of the size of this as that
which was recorded in the work which
concluding.
But there are other figures which II
was not possible to give yesterday
morning, and there are yet Others
which will not be available for some
time to come, which add to the i'm
pressive story told by the measure
ments which record the construction
history Of the tunnel at st. Paul pass.
1t will be a long time before all the
measurements are made and all of
the calculations are completed, but
the great record stands-a world rec
ord of skill and organization and exc
cution.
Yesterday morning 1t was found
upon checking up the work that was
finished at 9:42 Tuesday night, that
the alignment of the two sections of
the tunnel was almost absolutely per-
feet; the difference on the center was
three-hundredths Of foot-less than
three-eighths Of an inch; at the base
of the rails, the difference was only
one-hundredth Of foot; and this in

PATH TO CABINET
CLEARED FOR KNOX

Washington Feb. lo.--Following
close upon the discovery that Senator
Phlander C. Knox could not, without
violating Il provision of the constitu-
ton of the United States. accept the
state portfolio in the Taft cabinet, the
senate today took prompt action to re-
move the constitutional objection. Sen
ator Hale introduced resolution
which was referred to the committee
on judiciary providing that the salary
of the secretary of state be reduced
from $4,000 to $4,000, the figures at
which it stood before it was increased
along with those of all other cabinet
officers two years ago.
In view of this resolution, Assis-
tant Attorney General Russell held
that if congress restores the salary
The Daily Missoulian. [volume] (Missoula, Mont.) 1904-1961, 1909-02-11

that case falls outside the purpose Of
the law and is not within the law,
Mr.. Russell said:
An examination of commentaries
on the constitution and of the debate
on the convention which framed it
leaves no doubt that the purpose and
the sole purpose of paragraph 2, sec
ton 6. article l, was to destroy the ex-
pectation of representative or sena-
tor might have that he would enjoy
the newly created office or the newly
created emoluments.
The reason why the trainers of the
constitution sought to destroy that
perhaps was to prevent the vote of
the representative or senator from
being influenced by it,
In my opinion, therefore, the case
presented falls outside Of the purpose
OF the law and is not within the law"

SEES NO PROSPECTS
FOR TARIFF CHANGE

Pensacola, Fla, Feb. 15.-William j.
Bryan in a speech here last night said:
"The country does not hope for a
revision of the tariff at the hands OF
the present congress. The reason Is
that the republicans cannot afford to
lower the tariff. for every man who
has schedule has contributed to
their campaign fund and must be pro-
tected. 1t Is true that the contribu-
tions to the national fund were pub
lished, but moneys received by the
congressional fund were 30 tainted

Natures Most Valuable Cathartic.

Heretofore castor oil, the most val
liable cathartic known, has been ex-
cluded from universal use by its nau-
seous odor. disagreeable flavor and
sickening after taste, so that inferior
medicines have been In demand.
Now. however, childhoods buybear
has been banished by the benefactor
who compounded Palatal, a purgative
specific. In which all the virtues OF
this oil are retained, from which all
It's vices are eliminated. II is not n
substitute for castor oil, but II is that
remedy without unpleasant taste and
stomach irritants.
II ts palatable, harmless and diges-
tfble, because the ninety-three per
cent. Of chemically pure cold pressed
cream OF castor oil Is combined with
seven per cent. Of wholesome flavor

This Is why children lick the spoon.
AS a laxative or purgative for ba-
bies and pregnant women Palatal can
be taken with comfort and without
danger OF any sort. II is easily ad-
ministered and agrees with the most
sensitive stomach. An overdose is
impossible. as the excess simply
