Chinese Doctors
CAN POSITIVELY CURE YOU

Those who are suffering from dis
eases which many other doctors have
pronounced incurable, now have re-
lief in sight. York & York, the fam
Gus Chinese doctors, are now located
in Walla Walla. These men, after
years of study and research in China,
were granted diplomas by the Emper-
or, to pursue their practice of medi-
cine.
For centuries the Chinese have been
acknowledged leaders in the practice
of medicine, and many wealthy peo-
pie annually go to that country in
search of relief for ailments which
doctors of this country have pro-
nounced incapable of permanent
cure.
York & York use nothing but power
ful roots and herbs of demonstrated
medical value. These roots and herbs
act gently on the system in direct
contrast to medicines usually given.
They can be consulted without cost.
Those residing out of the city can
send for symptom blanks and a free
diagnosis will be given.

are called upon by the new bill to
contribute to the immense state
fund to be created.
The bill so directly affects every
line of industry that it deserves
greater attention than has been Civ
en- it by these interests. The rates
taxed are absurdly arranged: Road
making takes a 5 per cent rate,
while coal mining is fixed at only
3; laying asphalt paving is fixed at
3 per cent, but the dangers in saw
mill are considered worth but 2 l-2
Yet carpenter work outside a saw
mill is rated at 3 IL, and house
moving goes up to E 12. These
show insufficient
time has been taken in preparing
the schedules, and that no sort of
justice prevails in the comparative
rates. -Leavenwoth Echo.

Git THE SPEAKERS
POWER SHORT

Until new rules are adopted by
which the speaker of the house will
Ne shorn of much of his power,
neither the people nor their duly
elected representatives will have
much to say about what new laws
.re passed or defeated by the legis-
lature.
A proportion of the bills intro
duced never come to a vote because
y chairman of the committee on
rules, the speaker does not allow
them to be placed upon the calendar
In this manner he can secure the
defeat Of any bill to which he is OPP
posed. and so great is his power
that his colleagues on the rules
committee are easily whipped into
line, making it practically a one
man committee.
Isn't it about time for the legis-
lature to follow the example of
congress and take away some of
the authority of the speaker. --Spo-
kane Chronicle.

ALL.DAY Meeting AT CHRISTIAN
CHURCH PROVES BIG SUCCESS

Although no call was made public
ly for funds, yet at the close of the
afternoon service it was announced
that nearly one half of the entire
amount had been voluntarily pro-
vided for. With the further assist
ance of many of the brethren who
have not vet subscribed, and that
of the many friends who will re-
joice with us in our prosperity, and
who, with us, will be glad to have
such building in the city, we are
assured of success.
All outstanding Indebtedness a.
gainst the church has been cancel
ed, and every department of the
work has steadily grown since Mr..
Grim took charge of the work Oct
ober 1909.
This has been made possible by
earnest cooperation on the part of
the members and many friends. To
all, we wish you to know that we
are gratef ul for the kindness mani
tested, and with you, hope for
larger things in the future.

PROSPECTS GOOD FOR
BUMPER FRUIT CROP

Up to the present date, the pros
poets for an unusually large crop
of fruit of all kinds, were never
better in Kittitas valley, but there
vet remains time enough for dam
ages. The winter has been excep-
tionally fine-mild-yet the ground
was frozen several inches deep ear
ly in the fall and so far has not
thawed out any depth. The tenn
perature was not at any time SO far
been lower than 10 degrees above
zero. If the warm weather does
not thaw out the ground and the
frost remains there and holds the
trees back up to March 1st., we
shall then feel that big crop of
fruit is assured. and it is certainly
to be hoped that it will not turn off
too warm during this month.
Should it set in raining and the
frost be drown out of the earth and
vegetation start; then turn cold for
a few hours, it might cause consid-
cradle damage. but we hardly look
for such thing. While we might
and doubtless will have furry or
two. we hardly anticipate any
weather of so severe a nature as to
do any great damage.

DEMOCRATS WIN
IN HOUSE FIGHT

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The
democrats of the house, aided by a
few republicans, who declined to
be bound by the party caucus, won
their fight today for an increas ed
representation in the low er branch
of congress under the census of
1910.
They voted down the republican
caucus bill to retain the house
membership bill at 39l, and then
passed the original Crumpacker bill
fixing the membership at 433 on
and after March 3, 1913. If Ari-
IONA and New Mexico are admit
ted to statehood they will be given
one representative each, bringing
total to 435.
The action of the house today
must be ratified by the senate.
This, the house leaders believe, the
senate will do.
Under the new reappointment
plan, no state loses member.
The following states gain the
number Indicated:
Alabama /; California ); Colora
do /; Florida !; Georgia l. Idaho
Illinois 2; Louisiana |: Massachu-
sets 2; Michigan /: Minnesota /;
Montana /; New Jersey ,; New
York 6; North Dakota !; Ohio l;
Oklahoma 8; Oregon /; Pennsyl-
vania 4 Rhode Island !; South
Dakota /; Texas 2. Utah /; Wash
ington 2; West Virginia i.
The house spent more than FIVE
hours on the bill.
Champ Clark, of Missouri, in ia
voring an increase in membershi p
said the real work of the house
would continue to be performed in
committee, and that the number of
representative on the floor would
make little or no difference.

Fence Rail Philosophy
BY DB. DOWDY.

We have sparerib and apple sauce
in the fall-just as Adam and Eve
did.
There are many ways of manag-
ing a husband; being a good cook
is one of them.
At the age of 80 some girls act as
# they would soon be old enough to
go to school.
And we may have occasion to re-
joice today because of the things
we neglected to do yetterday.
What some artless people are un-
able to understand is why art COM
mittees hang certain paintings and
let the artists escape.
A mans faith in women gradu-
ally disappears with his front hair.
Most husbands and wives would
be perfectly harmonious and con.
genial if they could live block
apart and only meet by accident.
When a man tries to convince
himself that woman is nothing to
him it is sign that she is begin
ming to be a whole lot more than
he anticipated.
In the game of love man often
throws down a queen in order to
pick up a two-spot.
1t is hard to tell which is the
most pained-the woman who
watches a man banding her baby
or the man who listens to woman
telling one of his best stories.
It is a pretty safe bet that the
man who likes to go visiting wore
curls when he was young.
Some people 60 in for the simple
life because of the notoriety it
brings them.
A woman always calls it femin-
inc intuition" when she succeeds
in making a fairly good guess.

Now Get Busy.

Now that the election of the new
officers for the Chamber of Com.
cree is a thing of the pa list,
seems to us that it is time to get
down to business on the square for
the best interests of all. The one
man business has always played
havoc with things. That body is
supported by people of the valley
as we'll as by people of the city and
it is supposed to work in the inter-
ests of all, not a select few, who at
times yelled thumbs up and thumbs
went up. If you want to kill a
club or organization of any kind,
let a select few secure control and
run it awhile and kick, cuff and
brow beat, and you will soon reach
the end. We hope for the best
and believe the present officials will
stand only for square deal to all
concerned. If the support of all
good men is desired and obtained
it will come as a result of broad
policy and no favor;tism which has
had great deal to do with the
death and burial of all former ef-
forts along the line. The organi-
cation for all and all for the organ
ization should be the password
henceforth.

Last Sunday was a day long to
be remembered by the Christian
Church of this place. Although
the day was marked with down
fall of snow and the city was rest
ing under a scarlet fever scare, vet
the audiences were good and the
people came for an all-day meeting
dinner being served in the west
room.
At the conclusion of the morning
address, mortage which had been
placed against the property in 1907,
and which had been Cancelled one
year in advance, was burned, while
the audience cheered, closing the
event with singing Praise God
from whom all blessings flow. "
The pastor then outlined a cam
paign for the erection of new
house of worship, the old one being
no long, euitable for the charging
worl. .. ,..c church. The proposed
building will be a White Grecian
Temple in design, and will cost a.
bout $50, 900.
At the earnest request of many,
the pastor, who, confessedly has a
likeness for the evangelistic field
consented that he would not relin-
quish this charge under three years
save with consent of the church.
