Fire Causes Heavy Loss.

st. Louis, June 15.-Losses cons
servatively estimated at more than
$1,00O,O00 were sustained in a fire
that ragged for hours to-day In a
manufacturing district bordering for
four blocks the terminal yards in
the southwestern part of the city.
The fire Is believed to have started
in the Huttig sash and door plant
from a spark from locomotive. The
tenants OF more than so flats and
dwellings left their domiciles, carry
ing all they could of their posses
sions, when 1t was thought their
homes were doomed. The exodus
was found later to have been unnec-
essary and veering winds carried the
flames in another direction.

1t is all due to the tireless research

principle has been established, and
there seems to be no good reason why

The value of al these experiments
which my wife and have conducted"
explains DIR Lewis, has several diff
ferent phases. For instance, il may
some day have great commercial

Of embryo chicks could be taken every
day without hindering the increase OF
the supply Thus there would be a
new delicacy.
These possibilities are far In the fu-

some day there is every probability.
This would prove of great Importance
20 the world, as the supply of meats
would never give out so long as the
chemicals could be secured to make

DECLINES TO FURNISH FACTS.

Last July Senator Works OF Cali.
fornia made seven-hour speech in
the United States senate Under the
guise of opposition 20 the Owen bill.
this speech was in reality an attack on
the American Medical Association and
a defense of christian Science" In
explanation of his adherence to this
cult, Senator Works made some state
ments regarding certain diseases for
which he and members of his family
had been treated by Los Angeles ply
sicians, without relief, and of which
they had been cured through Chris
tian Science The Los Angeles
County Medical Association, naturally
desiring to know the facts, asked Sen
ator Works what these ''insurable"
diseases were, who were the physi-
clans and what had been the treat
ment. Senator Works declined to give
any OF this information Ex-senator
Chandler Of New Hampshire also
wrote Senator Works, asking for def
mite information. Senator Works. in
his replies, refused to furnish any de-
tailed facts to support his vague state
ments in the senate, SO that his case
rests practically on his reputation for
veracity. 1t is singular, says The
Journal of the American Medical AS
sociation, how indignant adherents of
Mrs. Eddy always become when in
credulous and hard-headed people ask
for facts in place of vague generaliza-
tions. Senator Works undoubtedly
has a right to champion Eddylsm in
the United States senate, if he so de-
sires, whatever one may think of his
good taste in discussing his family af-
fairs in public. Having done so, how
ever, the public has right to ask
him to produce facts to support his
statements and not to attempt to hide
behind his senatorial dignity

The reason and the only reason Ok
lahoma people are kicking on taxes is
that taxes are too high The people
OF this state expected to be taxed to
maintain state government and the
matter was fully discussed before
statehood, but no one ever expected
to submit to unjust taxation. All over
this state property owners are being
asked to pay taxes on property they
do not possess, and there's the rub
The state board Of equalization made
the levy two mills, but at the same
time raised valuations fifty per cent
The man who gave in his property at
its true value-and all were required
to do this, is required to pay on half
as much more than he possesses. The
people of Oklahoma have right to
cry out against such injustice. 1t may
defeat the democratic party next year,
but the party has gone to the extreme
in trying TO force money out of the
taxpayers unlastly. It is not definite
just what will be done but it is rea-
sonahly certain that thousands of peo-
pie will refuse to pay the exorbitant
taxes new demanded
