least one dreaded disease that sci
ence has been able to cure In all it's
stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls
Catarrh Cure is the only positive

ternity. Catarrh being a constitu-
tional disease, requires a constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting di-
rectly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de.
stroying the foundation of the dis
ease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the consti-
tuition and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have so

WHY THEY SMILE


proposed legislation for government regulation of the
great traffic There's at least feature that
should please them nightly. We refer to the proposition
to amend the Sherman law egaize purchases al
ready made by railroads of competing lines
This proposition is in effect that it shall be lawful for
thieves who already have stolen property their person
to keep it There shall be picking, but the
rascal who already has succeeded in flchng your purse
is entitled to it. This is the prnc pal of the thing and 1t
is something to the shame and disgust of all honest
men and the and delight of all thieves
Why shouldn't Morgan and Standard Oil and ravenous
robber trusts rule the commonwealth when have a
which opens the prison doors to criminals and
tells them to go forth with their unwhpped by JUS
tce simply because they have the swag?
Well may the Morgans, the Nanderb and their Xix be
satisfied The Sherman law, upheld by an honest fearless
president meant jail Taft proposes not only to give them
a clean bill of health, not to insure to them the swag
they have collected in violation of law, but also to give
them an exclusive advantage in monopoly in the merger
business There shall be railroad trusts those
that already are 1t is cinch! 1t is great big Fat
cnch, to be established by national law!
Oh! that might have Harriman's views on such
proposition!

SPOKANE MANS THEORY
OF A CENTRAL BANK

Editor The Press-Since Senator
Aldrich and Mr.. Taft both advocate
the establishment of a central bank
of issue, yet suggest no plan for
establishing the same, the ordinary
layman might aid them in perform
ing this task. Money bears the
same relation TO the commercial
body that blood bears to the animal
body. Therefore We might learn
valuable lessons by the study of
the circulatory system of the body;
In Its increased and decreased sup
ply of blood, and periods occur in
which unusual work is to be per
formed. The normal blood supply
is increased where the animal is
prepared for excessive work or has
an excessive amount of work to do,
as is beautifully shown in the
mother approaching maternity. but
after the work for which this eX-
cessive blood has been formed the
surplus is retired. The same law
should apply in money and credits
or credit money.
There should be established
central department OF issue, or, If
you viii, bank of issue. but that
department of issue must be re-
sponsive 10 the people and not to
the banks. Therefore. the system
which wish to suggest is the divis.
Ion OF the United States and terri
tories into 10 financial districts,

elected by the people Of their re-

In Little Old New York
BY NORMAN

| NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-In their
| appeal to the government for an old
age pension system, postal en-
j ployes are using as an argument the
case of Andy" Hyde, a clerk in the
foreign branch of the New York
postoffice, on West street.
Andrew X. Hyde got a job as as
sistant carrier during the admins
tration of President Zachary Taylor,
in 1850. In 1852 he was appointed a
clerk and began to sort letters. He
got $50 month. In 1857 he mar
ried. He has had IL children, of
whom seven are living. His salary
has increased gradually until for
several years it has been $1,000 a
year.
But all the money that Hyde has
earned has been spent in bringing
up his family. He has saved moth
ing. Having worked for the govern
ment for go years, being now 70, he
finds himself unable to work more
than Is days out of every month.
He is still sorting letters, when he
is able to work. When he cannot
work any more, he will just be out
of a job.
Senator Depew and other public
men are endeavoring to get a spe-
cial pension for ANDY"
The stage entrance to Wallack's
theater is like that of no other play
house in New York. Probably there
is not another such anywhere. 1t is
through a dwelling at 20 West Thir-
tieth street. You go into an area
and enter a basement door under
the high steps. Walking through a
long hallway, you come to the
dressing rooms of the actors.
This oddity of arrangement led to
an untoward event. Frank Cronin,
human derelict. on a recent very
cold evening, seeking any port in a
storm, crept into this basement
door. The guardian Of the portal
CHANGED to be away for moment,
and Cronin sneaked down the cor
ridOr and into nice, warm room
whose door stood ajar. 1t CHANGED
to be the dressing room of Hilda
Spong. who plays one of the leading
parts in "A Little Brother of the
Rich" There was a couch, partly
concealed by screen. Cronin
threw his numbed form upon 1t,
pulled couch cover over himself,
and went to sleep.
Nobody knows just what time all
this occurred. Miss Spong makes
several changes of costume during
the play, and during these she
neither saw nor heard anything out
of the ordinary in her dressing
room. Just as she had put on her
coat and hat, after the show, how.
ever, she heard faint snore. and
discovered Cronin. The police took
him away, and Magistrate Ker.
nochan sent him to the island for
six months.
What Miss Spong would like to
know is how long Cronin was be.
