He relies chiefly upon cooperating with Nature in bringing about a speedy and edectu- ai cure of morbid aural conditions Re markable cures are reported. many ot them being in the cases of deafness that had existed for about 20 to 70 years. With the description given In his newly published hook. the learned docto provides long series of letters. written by per~ons VI had been given up as hopeless. and who were speedily CuTcO Vt uOIie Wt(uOut IOSS Ol tiuC AGO without inconvenience by Dr. Coutant's natural home method.

Baldwin Defended
ROOsevelt'S Criticism of Su preme Court Decision is
 Resented

Washington, March 16-James H. Boyd, chairman of the employers lia- btlity commission of Ohio, while before the House Judiciary committee yester- day, criticised Theodore Roosevelt s position on the employers liability act Of New York
 "Mr. Roosevelt's position is entirely wrong," MT. Boyd said. His criti- cism of the State Supreme court which declared the act unconstitutional is an injury to the workmen. The Supreme court was right in turning down the act, because under it em- ployes were no better of than with out it. Now the road is clear for a sound workmen's insurance law
 MT Boyd declared the bill drawn by the federal employers liability com mission was only a step in the right direction.

The loss was quite severe on
number, especially where the
grain was heavy and we'll advanc-
ed, but taking the prairie over,
the coplous rain which came with
the storm and the one which fol-
lowed later, will increase the yield
OF the late grain, which was in
need OF moisture, more in bushels
than the storm destroyed. This
cold-blooded way of figuring
should not be construed to mean
that the loss of our neighbors
and friends is to be minimiZed or

such Is not the ease. But it is a

MET DEATH in
SALMON RIVER
Frank Hiltsley, Well Known
Stockman, Drowned
Saturday.

Hall S Ranch, Pittsburg Land
ing, Idaho, July 23.-(Special to
the Tribune. Frank b. Hiltsley,
prominent stockman, who for four
teen years has been a resident of
the Salmon river section, was
drowned at four 0 clock Saturday
afternoon in the Salmon river,
near Three creek. Mr.. Hiltsley
was in a row boat in the stream
when the craft capsized. He
could not swim and was soon car
ried beneath the surface as no aid
was at hand.
Mr.. Hiltsley's home was at
Three creek. This creek empties
into the Snake river about 1876
miles above Lewiston. He is sur
vived by a wife.
1t has been estimated here that
the body should rise to the sur
face today or tomorrow. A re-
ward of 5000 has been offered
for the recovery of the body, this
being announced by C. j. Hail.
the stockman, who is brother
in-law of Hiltsley. 1t is believed
that the body can be recovered at
some point between Pittsburg and

BORAH WON'T
TRUST FISHER
Will Annul Homestead Law
in Defense of Settlers
Rights.

Washington, July l9.-Sena
tor Borah received a letter from
Secretary Fisher today, stating
that where a homesteader does
not express preference as to the
law under which he desires to
perfect his title, his entry will be
considered as made under the
3year law. The secretary holds
he has discretionary power to
waive the cultivation clause as to
the second year on all such en-
tries, provided the entrymen
cultivate one-eighth of the area
the third year, but Senator Borah
intends to press his bill, making
such ruling mandatory rather
than leave it discretionary with
the department.
Washington, July 19.-In order
to secure a favorable interpreta-
ton of the 3-year homestead law,
as it was recently passed by con-
gress, it has been necessary for
Senator Borah to introduce a
supplementary bill making doubly
clear the meaning Of the original
bill. This would not be necessary
but for the fact that the inter
ior department has always been
hostile to the 3-year homestead
proposition, and having failed to
prevent the passage of the bill,
isnow resorting to a practice that
is very common these days-that
Of SO interpreting land laws as
to prevent them becoming oper-
ative.
Main Provisions Clear.
Thus far no difficulty has
arisen with the main provision of
this law; that is, as to new en-
tries, though instructions carry
ing the law into effect are still
held back, but, the department
has shown a disposition to virtu-
ally nullify that part of the law
which permits the entrymen un-
der the old homestead law to
avail themselves Of the 3-year
provision. Senator Borah intend
ed, IN framing his bill, to enable
all homestead entrymen to ac-
qulre title in three years, provid-
ed they complied with the require
ments of the law, and he specifi-
eally made his bill apply to exist
ing entries, not yet perfected, SO
that thousands of entrymen now
working for title can secure pat
tnt alter three years of residence.

OUTLOOK in
MINES GOOD
Many Experts Representing
Capitalists Now Inspecting
Central Idaho Mines.

J In addition to the number of
outright sales and bonding of
various properties in this portion
of the big central Idaho mining
belt, there are reports received
almost daily of the arrival of ex-
perts for the purpose of inspect
ing the best mines and prospects
In the interest of outside capital,
from Elk City, Ten Mile, Dixie,
Florence, Warren, Big Creek and
other sections. There are also
known to be pending at this time
number of mining deals which
If consumated, and the indications
are most favorable, will mean
much to this section of the coun-
try, for it will bring the much
needed capital in to the mines
to develope their vast wealth.
and that will be followed. by trans
portatdon lines, for railroads will
go where there is business for
them, though 10th to take too
great chances.
An important report dealing
with the development of the great
central Idaho country has eman-
ated from Salmon City to the ef-
feet that some of the largest op-
orators in the United States now
have experts in the district be-
tween Salmon City and Goff,
along the main stream of the Sal
mon river. This is the district
traversed by the surveys of the
Pittsburg & Gilmore road which
has built to Salmon with the an
nounced purpose of continuing on
down the river to Lewiston. 1t
has been disclosed that while Sal
mon City, through other varied
resources, was an attractive field
for the new road, investigation
had been previously made that
showed the railroad people there
was an extensive mining tonnage
near that city. The operation of
the road has amply justified all
predictions in that regard the
fact being that the mines are
opening up in manner that has
caused a sensation in Salt Lake
mining circles, where considera-
bic mining stock is held. The
view appears to be held quite
firmly at Salmon that the dis
trict down the main Salmon, the
Big Creek country, affords a bet
ter field than that now proven,
and the fact that experts are
moving in there ahead of the rail
road would seem to justify such
a view. Many mining men of
prominence have asserted that the
Salmon river country affords a
mining field that will some day
outrank the Coeur d'Alenes as a
silver-lead producer. while the
big new gold production will also
be realized. The absence Of
transportation facilities has de-
layed opening up the district I'M
til this time.
