May Change

To eliminate the crossing of the

to Olympia and transferring the
present right of way into state
highway is the scheme presented
b Judge Reid of the railroad to
the Thurston county commission
ers yesterday.
1t is proposed to hitch the
Olympia line onto the new Point
Defiance, line at the junction of
the Point line and the old line, go
down the new line a short distance
then switch back to the old Olym-
pia line, makinA a four mile cut
off.
If the commissioners take the
old road bed for a state highway
1t will do away with the Nisqually
hill.

A republic In this neighborhood
won't be a good example or the
loyal sons of Nippon.
The world doesn't know it, but
Japan Is already fairly honey
combed with socialism. Japanese
socialism doesn't make much
splash yet, because thus far any
body who peeps is promptly
slammed into jail.-and maybe
hanged to boot. But there's no
doubt that the movement is on
foot and that the government
thinks it serious.
Republics with flags with red
fields are particularly obnoxious.
So every little diplomatic trick
in the Japanese box of tricks is
being worked to delay the Chinese
republican game. And japanese
tricks are about the most effective
tricks anybody knows anything
about.

schools have received as many as

Japanese teachers have gone to

books-modern books printed to
serve as text books for Chinese
pupils.
More than all this the japanese
lhave exerted tremendous influ-
fence in China through newspapers
financed b Japanese money and
edited by Japanese brains.
And now the Chinese have gone
and kicked everything galley-west

organs when properly prescribed. A
ing as the best and most reliable
prescription. Six ounces good pure
gin. half ounce murax compound,

well and take one to two teaspoon-
fuls after each meal and at bed
time. All good druggists have these
ingredients. This quickly cures
backache, rheumatic pains and 9TH

weak or sick kidneys go without
treatment as serious trouble may
develop rapidly.
