The wonders of Surgery.

| Among the Arabs and the Moors ev-
cry European traveller is supposed to
be q doctor of medicine and surgeon.
The healing art is the only one upon
which they boast themselves, and 1t is,
perhaps, the one of which they know
the least. Walter B. Harris, in his
account Of a journey to Tafilet, tells
the story of wonderful operation in
surgery as it was reported to him by
native. doctor who was travelling in
his company.
I think the old man fancied that I

Fight in Senate Expected

The house seems certain to pass the
McMaster local option bill without
material change, but there are few sin
cere predictions that the bill will get
through the senate in it's present form.
The delegationss of King, Pierce and
Spokane counties in the house are split
over the local option issue, and the
feeling runs so high that in. some in
stances members will not speak to each
other in passing.
With the anti-racetrack and local op-
ton bills out of the way, interest is
likely to settle on the new criminal
code. The code commission has sub
mitted a draft of the proposed code to
the senate judiciary committee, which
is likely to eliminate many provisions
and perhaps add a number.
The commissions suggestions cover
wide range. Comparison with exist
ing statutes reveals that of the $50 Sec
tons of the code submitted by the
commission, 1870 are wholly new, while
large number of old sections are
broadened in scope. Not all Of the new
sections define new crimes or INSIDE
meanors, some of them referring to
different degrees Of offenses or relate
to administration of proposed laws.
There are nearly 100 crimes or misde-
meanors newly defined or recommend
ed to be placed in the statutes for the
trStS time.

JUDGE FRAZIER PLEADS FOR
BETTER DIVORCE MEASURE

Olympia, Feb. 6-Protesting against
the practice of Canadians making OF
washington clearing house for di
vorce cases and stating that there is a
greater percentage of divorces to mar.
rlages in Washington than any other
state in the Union, Superior Judge A,
W. Frater, of Seattle, appeared before
the house judiciary committee and
urged the passage of his divorce bill.
In his address Judge Frater said the
bill as drawn had been approved in all
but minor details by the superior
judges of King, Judge Huneke, of Spo.
kane, and Judge Chapman, of Pierce.
1t was Judge Frater's belief that the
courts of the state are not responsible
for the many divorces in the state, but
that the laxity of the Washington law
makes them powerless in the matter
TWENTY-FIVE per cent of the juve-
nile delinquents who appear before
me, F" said Judge Frater, are the chill
dren of divorced parents. think that
judges ought to be authorized to have
the records of cases transcribed at their
discretion. Many times perjured tes-
timony is given, and this could be
stopped if the evidence could be re-
duced to writing and made part of the
record.
"a stronger penalty ought to be i'm
posed on people who marry immedi-
ately upon being divorced 1 fined a
man 500 for going to Brvitish Colum-
bia and contracting marriage few days
after securing divorce. 1t had no
effect, and I think that a judge ought
to be able to assess fine Of 81, 900 or
sentence person to a year in Jail.
Divorces ought to be granted to
citizens only. Canadians from as far
east as Quebec now secure divorces in
Washington upon perjured testimony.
We ought to put an end to this.
"My bill is similar to the divorce
law drafted by the National Bar Asso-
citation, and I think that if divorces in
this state were not so easy to secure
there would be fewer marriages and
less unfortunate mating"

Special Agent Roland r. Dennis
writes from Vladivostock, according to
Daily Consular and Trade Reports: "A

wire nails are used exclusively in
Japan and hence there is an immense
demand for them. Among the very
many stock companies formed during
the Japanese-Russian war, when mon

The very latest up-to-date automatic
machinery was brought out from the
United States and everything that mon

cannot make nails as cheaply as he
did in Cleveland the superintendent
replies: 1T is simply question Of
labor. In Cleveland one man tended

to tend one machine, and they don't
keep it running as it should at that

it could not successfully be utilized in
a branch of manufacturing to which it
was not accustomed.
"Coolie labor in Japan commands
