WASH THAT ITCH AWAY

1t is said that there are certain
springs in Europe that give relief
and cure to Eczema and other skin
diseases. If you knew that by
washing in these waters you could
be relieved from that awful itch,
wouldn't you make every effort to
take a trip to Europe at once?
Would you not be willing to spend
your last cent to find the cure?
But you need not leave home
for these distant springs. Relief
is right here in your own home
town.
A simple wash of Oil of Winter
green, Thymol and other ingredi-
ents as compounded only in d. d.
D. Prescription will bring instant
relief to that terrible burning itch,
and leave the skin as smooth and
healthy as that of child.
If you have not already tried 1t,
get at least a 25 cent bottle today.
We assure you instant relief.

It WAS FINE

Well, those famous Russian dan
GERS have come and gone. The most
fashionable and one of the largest
audiences of the past twelve
months saw 'em. What is the opin-
ion? Well, it's safe bet that this
is the opinion of the majority:
Anna Pavlowa and Mikail Mord-
kin are great dancers, but they
didn't make the people go exactly
wild over them. For instance,
their dancing didn't produce a third
of the enthusiasm that Gadski's
singing produced. Anna knows how
to stand ON her toes to perfection,
and Mikail has superb physique
and is as forceful as Grecian god,
but western people like something
more stirring. But there Is no
noubt that both were splendid in
the action play, arabian Nights"
The ballet and it's members were
as much of hit as the stars. 1t
was all fine, But it's something
that would grow on people. the
more they saw it.

BIG DECLINE
IN FOOD
PRICES
Charged Up to Biggest Corn
Crop in History.

CHICAGO, Nov. 15.-Provision
houses in Chicago today declared
that the decline in food products
was due to the biggest corn crop
in the history of the nation, cou-
pied with a lack of fear of adverse
legislation, INSPIRED by the results
of the recent congressional cleo
tions. Packers here say that more
cattle and hogs have been shipped
into markets this year than ever
before. Good grain crops make
fat stock. they say, and fat cattle
and hogs make low prices.
Beef, pork and mutton prices are
from three to eight cents lower
than last year All other foods ex-
cept bread are cheaper.
Prices are lower now than they
have been, and will go still lower,
experts believe.

The council therefore find that the

streets, were surprised to read in
the papers one day that the board
of works had recommended to the
council the establishment of a paw
ing district in the Cannon Hill sec
ton and the installation of some
thing like half a million dollars
worth of improvements.
A HOW AROSE.
Then there was a howl from the
people who had not been present at
the meeting and who did not be-
lieve that any seven men had the
right to arrogate to themselves the
authority to determine that nearly
a thousand others should be COM
PEELED to pay for expensive street
improvements.
Then a petition was gotten up.
But it wasn't petition in favor of
paving. 1t was petition of protest.
and there were 235 names on it
when it was sent to the city council.
The council, however couldn't
see where any such percentage Of
the property owners had the right
to block needed CD improvement,
and the petition was ignored, the
district being established despite
the protest.
1t was just little case of seven
people deciding that they wanted
something. Then they went to the
board of works and asked for it.
Sure" said the accommodating
commissioners. Anything your
fond heart DESIRES" and presto, the
seven got what they wanted.

THE FINDINGS.
"Charge 1, contained in the
charges filed by Mr.. Elliott before
this council, has been sustained.
Charge 2, filed in the charges
by Mr.. Elliott, has been sustained
"Charge is as follows: We, up
on investigation, find that there
was conspiracy, but that there is
no evidence to show that Mr.. Sui
livan was in any way connected,
and therefore exonerate Mr.. Sulli-
Won on this charge
Charge 4. We find that while
Mr.. Sullivan did refuse the Spo-
kane Press access to the police
blotter, he did so upon the advice
and opinion of the corporation
counsel, and therefore find this
charge not sustained. However,
that if the police blotter is open
to inspection to one or any paper
it should be open to all.
"Charge 5.-Protecting houses of
ill-fame. We find that while the
same is sustained by the evidence,
it could not have existed except
and alone by the knowledge and
consent of the board of police com.
missioners and the mayor, and
further find from the evidence ad-
duced that since the filing of said
charge these houses have been
closed.
Appointment Rules Violated.
"Charge 6. Favoritism in ap-
pointments on police force. We
find that the civil service rules
governing the regulations of the
police department have been gross
ly violated and, while Mr.. Sullivan
made the recommendations the
appointing powers are vested in
the police commissioners who made
the appointments on his recon-
mendation, and therefore, the
charges as to Mr.. Sullivan are not
sustained.
5, "Charge 7. We find that after
the filing of these charges Mr.
Sullivan has resigned from the Of
flee of acting chief, and further
find that the mayor, through his
. VI sullivan as dCllIlS
chief for about 16 months, disre-
garded the provisions of the city
charter requiring him to appoint a
chief of police, and should be held
equally responsible .or any and all
acts of the office during that
period.
Wanted Captain to Appear.
"Charge s. From the fact that
the chief of police refused to make
a defense in the case when called
upon to do so by the council, we
can see no other way than to sus-
tain charge 8.
Whereas, During the hearing of
these charges against Sullivan the
testimony seemingly developed
charges against Ol4icers Hogan and
Downey and other unknown Off
GERS that they received money
from prostitute sfor protection of
such person or persons to ply their
unlawful business;
Nov, therefore, we recommend
to the police commissioners to
make a careful investigation of
said charges at once and make their
report thereof on the same and file
the same with the city council, and
from date hereof recommend the
said Officers Hogan and Downey
