The cause of ALL diseases is that
the brain is not in connection with the
diseased part.
The brain governs the whole body
and ALL its functions. 1t does this by
means of the nerves. These nerves go
out from the spinal cord, which is con-
nected to the brain. between each bone
of the backbone. These bones can be-
come displaced by some jar or accident
and thereby press on the nerves be-
tween them. The result is: Connec-
ton between brain and tissue is brok-
en-. Then appears the condition that
is known as disease. The Chiropractor
finds and adjusts the displaced vertebra
and restores connection between brain
and tissue.

General Reyes, who has been at
tempting to stir up a revolution in
Mexico, has surrendered to the gov
eminent authorities. He said that he
thought the MeXicans were awaiting
an opportunity to revolt against Ma
dero and he determined to give them
the opportunity. The general re-
spouse that he had expected failed
to materialize and, knowing that the
game was up, he thought it best to
surrender. The penalty for melting
revolution in Mexico is death, but
Reyes will probably not receive that
extreme punishment.

WRITES HOT LETTER
Scores the So-Callcd ProgressiVes
Who Are Trying Ia Use Machine
Methods aud Make Slate.

The following open letter was sent
to the Spokane Chronicle by Con-
gresham W. l.. LaFollette of this
city and has created a sensation in
political circles:
The question whether | will be Il
candidate for denomination to the
Sixty-third congress can not be ans
wered at this time.
At present my duty calls me here
in Washington. as a representative
of the people of the third district
and there are so many questions of
vital importance to my district and
to the country at large up for settle
ment before the present session of
congress that ! have not the time nor
the inclination to devote myself to
problem involving my personal po-
litical fortunes.
Whether | am a candidate or not
however, expect to manifest keen
interest in the coming campaign at
such time as ! can lay aside my con-
gressional duties temporarily without
neglect of the interests of the people
i represent. A great cause is to be
placed on trial in this campaign in
the Third district, and | sincerely de-
plore the fact that evidences already
appear of an effort to apply machine
methods and ring rule in a progress
sive struggle. and more is the shame
that those professed progressives in
volved in this unworthy effort are
making practically no denial of the
main charges stated as facts in the
daily press of Spokane from day to
day
We are told, and the information
is undoubtedly authentic that slate
has been made up in Tacoma for the
state of Washington almost year in
advance of the election, and that can
didates have been chosen for repre-
sentative from the Third district
This is done, mind you, across on the
other side of the state, 100 miles
from the border of the Third dis
trict, and without consulting the vot-
ers of the district affected
On this we have not only the press
reports, but we have it from no less
authority than the temporary chair
man of the Tacoma convention, who
designated from the platform the
next congressman from eastern Wash
ington."
The information thus volunteered
is indeed interesting, but my acquain-
lance with the good people of the
district which | have the honor to
represent, and of which | have been
a resident for 80 years. is such that
feel certain that they will insist on
being consulted in this contest. They
Will stand forth at the proper time

perate and terrible, 50 beyond the
power of Imagination to picture, hat
the descriptions received from differ
ent regions seem incredible. With
every day these conditions become
more acute and must so continue
until harvest. The bark has been
eaten from trees, roots have been
dug and devoured, and even can
nibalism is resorted to in the mad
craze and unbearable cravings of
starvation.
The recent state of civil war great
ly increased the distress caused by
he failure of corps and destruction
wrought by floods. and the unset
tied political conditions, still per-
sisting, make it impossible for the
new government to do much in aid
Of the sufferers. For this reason it
becomes imperative that the United
States, always China's friend, should
come generously to the front with
help. The remarkable patience of
The Chinese under suffering makes
relief comparatively easy, if only
the means are supplied.
So prompt and systematic were
the plans formed by the committee
in Shanghai that nearly all of the
5000, 600 starving ones might be
haved, if but the tender impulse OF
charity were to touch the hears of
a sufficient number of people in this
prosperous land. Each day the cable,
with lightning-like r%apidity, con
veys the dollars Sent to the commit
tee in New York direct 70 the. com
mittee in Shanghai. Thousands Of
the helpless ones are by this means
given work to do and food to sus-
ain them, and, with the experience
gained in the famines of the past,
the loss of money in administration
and all unnecessary expenses are
eliminated. Certainly nothing can
more appeal to the human heart than
the knowledge of starvation, and as
the extent of this great famine is
becoming better known, so the re-
sponse becomes more general.
The New York China Famine Re-
lief Committee, composed of repre-
sentative men, is cooperating with
the Red Cross and all money received
is promptly cabled to the committee
in Shanghai, without deduction.
Thus far, through this channel and
others, over $175,O 900 has been sent,
a sum which Is accomplishing great
good but one totally inadequate to
meet the terrible need.
The relief committee appeals to
all, even those who can afford to
give but little, reminding them that
every little will help swell the fund.
One dollar will save the life of a
man, woman or child for a month;
three dollars will preserve a whole
family for a similar period, and
there are 100000 families starving,
with no possibility of relief until
the summer harvest.
Time is an important factor in
this crisis; in a few weeks help will
be Of no avail. The sooner work and
food are provided, the easier it will
be to restore normal conditions and
to stay the epidemic Of diseases
which accompany starvation. Send
much or your mite-and do it
now.
