Captain Fornoff of the state force,
personal representative at the ring

1t was no longer a boxing contest,
that it was a brutal exhibition, and
that Flynn's foul tactics made its con,
tinuance impossible. He jumped into
the ring with his deputies and drove
the fighters and officials who followed
him to the corners. Referee Ed w.
Smith then announced that Johnson
had wen and the fight was over.
Flynn displayed no ability through
ont the fight. He was cut about the
face until blood ran down his breast
in stream. He was utterly helpless
from the first round on and by the
sixth was deliberately trying to butt
the champions chin with his head.
Tine after time. 20 Johnson held him
powerless in the cinches, Flynn
jeTked his head upward Smith
warned him repeatedly, but it did no

has views on the Indian question and
here is samples
THE Indian Of today is a very diff
forent proposition from the Indian Of
few years ago, Our Indians are
just as capable Of transacting bust
ness as their white neighbors They
are more like barons. Take them
down on the Umatilla reservation or
on the Nez Perce reservation; they
employ white men to work for them
because they are rich enough to do
It, They have larger balance to
their credit in the banks than any
other class of people and notably so.
Now IL we are going to treat them as
though they were children in viola
ton of their rights we must account
for it."
One might well judge from Senator
Heyburn's description that every
Umatilla tribesman had a plush lined
auto for his personal use and squad
of pale face slaves to do his bidding,
Truth requires the statement that the
situation has been overdrawn. The
allotments on the local reservation
range in size rom 40 acres to 100 The
Indians rent their land to white men
and IS per acre Is about an average
rental. 1t means for the average In
dian an income of about S45 per
month, payable twice a year. 1t is
not such a princely stipend after all
in this day of high prices, On such
an income it is hard for an Indian
family to maintain many servants and
keep up with the latest styles.
1t is we'll for the Indians that Sem
ator Hepburn is not taken seriously
by the senate. Otherwise the solons
might want to abolish the Indian de-
partment and refer the management
of reservations to the money trust.

SAGE TEA WILL
'DARKEN THE HAIR.
Restore Faded and Gray Hair
to Natural Color--Dandruff
Quickly Removed.

There is nothing new about the idea of
using Sage for restoring the color of the
hair. Our grandmother kept their hair
dark, glossy and abundant by the use of
a simple "Sage Tea" Whenever their
hair fell out or took on o dull, faded or
streaked appearance, they made brew
of Sage leaves, and applied it to their
hair with wonderfully beneficial effect.
Nowadays we don't have to resort to
the old-time tiresome method of gather
ing the herbs and making the tea. This
is done by skillful chemists better than
we could do it ourselves; and all we
have to do is to call for the ready-made
product, Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy, containing Sage in the
proper strength, with the addition of
Sulphur, another old-time scalp remedy.
This preparation gives youthful color
and beauty to the hair, and is one of
the best remedies you can use for dan
druff, dry, feverish, itching scalp, and
falling hair. Get a fifty cent bottle
from your druggist today, and you will
be surprised at the quick results. All
druggists sell it, under guarantee that
the money will be refunded if the
remedy is not exactly as represented.
