and consumption of all classes and sec
tons. No tariff bill is justified unless
the rates prescribed by it are based on
one general principle applicable to all.
while casting my vote for this meas
ure I desire to do so with this distinct
understanding, that when our agricul-
tural population along the 5000 miles
of the Canadinn line in behalf of the
nation throw open the doors OF COM
merce to the grain and cattle, lumber
and pulp wood, the butter, poultry and
eggs of Canada-free competition in all
that we have to sell--we will never rest
nor cease our efforts until we have
gained from our sense of justice of this
nation a reduction of tariffs that will
lead to a reasonable competition in
what we have to buy, which an exag-
Grated and exhorbitant tariff now com
pels US to buy from the tariff-made mo-
nopolies of the Eastern states.
This one-sided measure, instead OF
assembling all Of the parts and putting
the machine in operation, gives US only
one-half OF the necessary elements of
properly regulated and adjusted tariff
with Canada and with the world. am
willing to accept the ill-made agree
ment and use it as the beginning, not
only OF reciprocity with Canada, but of
commerce with all the world-not only
in the agricultural products of the North
west, but of every article necessary to
the welfare and comfort of our citizens.
And when such a healthy competition
is restored and new occupations and
industries are thus opened up to the
enterprising American youth, when the
inferior goods and the extravagant con-
duct of business which monopoly pro-
duces have been checked by revision
downward such as demanded in the
nation Republican platform of 1908, let
US hope also that American patriotism
will strike off the shackles and restric-
tions that have destroyed American
shipping, so that liberated trade will
again be carried under a liberated Amer
ican flag on the high seas of the world.
The tariffs and restrictions upon ships
and ship-building materials, which were
intended ostensibly to promote Ameri-
can shipping and shipbuilding, after 40
years of trial have proved a complete
failure Under them and because OF
them American shipping and the Amer
ican flag are no longer seen in the ports
of foreign countries. Now, that these
restrictions have failed of their purpose
and have killed that which they were
intended to foster, common sense and
common patriotism demand their re-
peal"

ICICLt CANAL COMPANY BUSY
Has Almost Seven Miles of Its Irrigation
Ditch Completed VIII Deliver Water on
the North Side of the River This Summer

the North Side of the River This Summer
The Icicle Canal Company, Of which
that redoubtable and successful promo
ter of irrigation canals, w. T. Clark,
builder of the high line Wenatchee
canal, is the chief promoter and guild
ing spirit, has almost eight miles of its
canal finished and will turn water into
the ditch this week. Not, however, for
irrigation purposes, but to swell the
fumes and settle the earth portions of
the ditch and season it for larger
quantity OF water which will be turned
in two or three weeks later, when the
ditch between the intake on the Icicle
river, between six and seven miles
southeast of Leavenworth, and where
the line crosses the Wenatchee river
one mile east of town, will be practically
completed.
L. P. Horton, who has charge of the
construction work, says he is making Of
the Icicle canal one of the best and
most substantial irrigation bitches in
Washington, and that when completed
he does not expect any interruption in
the service on account of breaks. In
conveying the water from the south side
Of the river to the north side considera-
BILE more than a mile OF 24-inch water
pipe is being used.
On the north side OF the river the
water will be delivered into an open
ditch and distributed among a large
number of landowners who have signed
up for water which they expect to use
in orchards that are already planted or
will be planted this fall and next spring.
Some 1900 acres on the fiat between
Leavenworth and Peshastin, on the
north side of the river, has been cleared
or is in process of clearing. No finer
land than this, for orchard purposes, can
be found in the Wenatchee valley.
Wright & Day set out SIS acres in
trees on this fiat last year, and the trees
have made most extraordinary growth.
In the immediate vicinity some eight
or ten others set out ten and twenty
acre orchards last year, all Of which
have made satisfactory growth. Within
half mile Of the Wright & Day ranch
Frank 1. Curtis of Seattle is clearing up
betreen so and 100 acres, some OF
which has already been planted to trees.
The balance will follow as quickly as
the land can be prepared. Mr.. Curtis
is large landholder in this vicinity and
has unlimited faith in its possibilities.
Our fellow townsman, A. H. Sylvester,
also has ten or more acres cleared ad-
Joining the Custis land, most of which is
set out in trees.
All this land is under the Icicle ditch
and will be watered this year. The
canal will be continued on down the
river. possibly as far as Monitor, water
ing and making productive many other
thousands OF acres in Wenatchee valley.

There are two ways to tell whether you have weak kidneys.
 The first is through the pains in the back and other outward signs. The second is by examination of the kidney secretiOns.
 That is why physicians make such careful examination when you ap- ply for insurance, and if there is any sign of kidney trouble you are surely rejected.
 Kidney disease is so dangerous that it is a bad mistake to overlook or neglect it, and if pain in the back, recurring headaches, or fretful, nervous, tired condition makes you suspect some kidney trouble take the trouble to watch the kidney secre- tions Look for any of the follow ing signs:
 More or less than three and one half pints passed daily.
 Too dark or too pale color.

And to him the avenues to business opportunities would have been closed.

DOUBLE TRACK FOR BELT LINE

General Superintendent De Bernardo OF
the Missouri Pacific, who has been spend

to ST. Louis, where II is supposed he will
consult with the general officers of the
road relative TO the double tracking OF
the Belt Line road extending from the

During his visit TO the city Superlntend-

out along the Belt Line looking the

rough estimates on the cost OF the pro.

the business OF the Missouri Pacific into
Omaha and South Omaha has grown TO
such an extent that tho officials find It
next to impossible 10 handle the Belt Line
traffic In a satisfactory manner on a
single track road. As a result second

work Will probably be finished during the
coming winter In order that construction
may be commenced and finished early
next spring.
