 In speaking of the incident pa per in that city said, w. D. Grant an Alaskan businessman, who was found unconscious in a pool of wa ter at Front and East streets is at St. Mary's hospital.

Surveyors Must Accept $5,OOO
As Settlement In Full 0fCams Townsie Survey Means
 Saving Of $5, ,5ee To People Of Wrange1l

At last 1t begins to look as though there is possibility of the town site tangle being strengthened out. Tn a recent mail Townsite Trustee Inman was in receipt of a letter from the Commissioner of Public lands authorizing him to make the offer to settle the claims of the sur veyors of the townsite for S5,ooo.
 This amount must cover all the expenses insofar as the surveyors themselves are concerned sal aries, board and room. The engin- eers' bill, according to their own way of figuring it was, Salaries, 5o, o,15s.75; board etc., SI413.55, a total of SIo, 56o. 30. The cut sug- gested by the department is big one, but will meet with the general approval of o9 per cent of the people of the town,
 The Whitfelds are given 60 days in which to either accept or reject the offer, at the end of which time a hearing will be had in Washing ton.
 It is not known how this settle ment would be handled, as more than this much has been paid out already to the AVhithelds here in town. The probabilities are, how ever that settlement would be made on pro rata basis, as that is the only fair way to all concerned,
 It is to be hoped that the depart ment will keep on the job until the matter is settled one way or the other, as nothing can be gained by procrastination. Justice to all concerned makes it imperative that the thing be brought to a finish of some kind. The delay is having a bad effect upon the town. Tie Whithelds either did or did not earn the money for which they are asking. If they did, which this paper doubts, then let them get their money. If on the other hand they did not, then let them be set tied with on some fair, equitable basis, the slate wiped clean, and the incident forgotten.

The steamer Humboldt is back on the run again, arriving north bound, Saturday morning. She carried a goodly passenger list, and practically every pound of car go she had room for. Among the latter was over two hundred tons for Douglas alone. The steamer has been thoroughly overhauled and is in first rate condition to take care of the coming season business.

HEED THE WARNING.
Many Butler People Have Done So.

When the kidneys are sick they
give unmistakable warnings that
should not be ignored. BY examining
the urine and treating the kidneys
upon the first sign of disorder, many
days of suffering may be saved. Sick
kidneys expel dark, ill-smelling
urine, full of "brickdust" sediment
and painful in passage. Sluggish
kidneys cause dull pain in the small
of the back, headaches, dizzy spells,
tired, languid feelings and frequent
rheumatic twinges.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kid
neys only. If you suffer from any of
the above symptoms you can use no
better remedy.
Butler people recommend Doan's
Kidney Pills.
Mrs. B. F. johnson, 200 South
Main Street, Butler, Mo-, says: "In
December, 1909, l suffered intensely
from kidney trouble. My back ached
so badly that I often thought l could
not endure the misery any longer.

Three times did the charging Kan
