CITYS NEGLECT is
SOURCE OF MUCH WOE

Since the snow melted residents of
Jackson street and others who are
obliged to use that thoroughfare have
found foot travelling very difficult
The trouble comes from the fact that
the city did not provide connection
between the sidewalks and the street
when the paving work was done. The
street was not paved the entire width
of the street and therefore at each
corner there is a distance of about 10
feet over which there is no walk. Fol-
lowing each thaw this winter these
places have become soft and muddy
and full of woe for people who have
sought to travel along Jackson street
via the sidewalks. owing to the nice
day yesterday a large number of
north side residents sought the open
air but the travel was all on the
street, not on the sidewalks, which

NEW LOCKJAW CURE
FAILS To SAVE VICTIM

Philadelphia, Pa, Feb. 17.-Efforts
of doctors of st. Mary's hospital to
save the life of James Ceolster, a
Hungarian immigrant, by the use of
the "Bavello treatment" proved fu-
tile. After a week in the hospital.
Ceolster, who was 25 years old. died
of lockjaw.
The young man developed lockjaw
from an injury to his right arm. The
new treatment, which was originated
recently by Bacello, an Italian scien-
tist, was resorted to in an effort to
save him. The treatment consists of
a three per cent solution of carbolic
acid and is given in conjunction with
lockjaw serum.
In the courst of the treatment. So
600 units of antitoXins were admins
tered to Ceolster. In addition, he
was given in the last few days % min
inns of the Bacello serum at intervals
of 20 minutes.

SETTLERS FLEE BEFORE
MISSOURI TIMBER FIRE

Springfield, Mo-, Feb. IA disas-
trous fire is sweeping the timber belt
south of Hollister, in Taney county
as a result of blaze that started in
the yards Of the American Pencil
company there. Over 200 carloads
of printed matter were destroyed. The
origin of the fire is unknown.
Farmers flocked to the scene and
tried to confine the fire to the cedar
yards. The flames spread to the
timber on the mountainside and soon
the little valley was seething fur
mace. A path through the timber was
cut in the hope that the flames would
be checked.
An Iron Mounain passenger train
ran into the fire before the engineer
was aware of the danger. The train
passed through the fire zone safely.
One of the biggest yards of the
American company is located 60
miles south of Hollister. A message
was received from thehe stating that
settlers have abandoned their homes,

ENGLAND INSISTS
on CANAL MATTER

Washington, Feb. 17.-Sir Edward
last note regarding the Panama ca
nal tolls question is nearly completed
and it's substance, at least, is expected
to reach Washington this week.
1t is understood that this rejoinder
by no means settles the controversy,
nor does it contain assurance of an
acceptance of the American proposal
to exchange notifications of the pend
ing general arbitration treaty under
the TENS of which the issue might be
referred to the special commission of
six members, proposed to be created
by that convention.
The rejoinder, in fact, is said to be
a continuation of the British argu-
ment in support of the contention
that the shipping of all nations must
be on even terms in the Panama ca
nal The arbitration idea, however,
by no means is dismissed but rather,
elaborated in this last communication,
possibly with the design of emphasiz-
ing the original British application
for that means of adjustment, in or
der that the British side shall lose no
point in the event of expiration June
third next of the existing limited ar
bitration treaty without the adoption
of a substitute.
The opinion prevails in the state
department that the treaty of 1908
will be extended next June for anoth
er term of five years. This was done
last week in the case of the Franco
American limited arbitration treaty
which otherwise would have expired
by limitation February %.

M MEMORIAL FOR new
STATE IS UP AGAIN

Olympia, Feb. 17.-Before the end
of the week, the legislature will be
called upon to vote upon a memorial
urging congress to carve the state of
Lincoln out of eastern Washington.
northern Idaho and northeastern Or
egon. Senator "Dick" Hutchinson is
preparing the memorial and will faith
er 1t early this week.
This will be the first time this
much discussed question of creating
this new state has been submitted to
the legislature. The proposition was
agitated widely some years ago but
little came of it. 1t was planned then
to make Dayton the capital of the
new state.
Included in the new state would be
all of Washington, east of the Cas-
cades, the Panhandle of Idaho and
the counties of Umatilla, Union and
Wallowa, Oregon. The resolution
will likely receive its death blow
shortly after its introduction but the
senator will not let the resolution be
killed without a hard fight Senator
Hutchinson does not hope to pass the
memorial but expects to start again
the agitation for the state of Lincoln
which he hopes to see established
within few years.
Senator Hutchinson has received
numerous letters from prominent res
idents of eastern Washington and
northern Idaho, urging him to take
this action. Congress will be asked
to allow the people in the territory
mentioned, to vote upon the PROPOSE
ton of forming the proposed state.
Senator Hutchinson's main argu-
ment for the formation of the new
state is the community of interests
that exists between these sections
Washington, he points out, is essen
TALLY two states though legally it is
one. Laws that fit eastern Washing
ton do not suit western Washington.
One of the reasons for changing the
Agricultural college at Pullman to
state college, is said to have been
to foster the movement for the state
of Lincoln. At least, statements o
this effect, have been made here for
he past several sessions of the legis-
lature.
Among the places mentioned as a
capital for the proposed state, are
Coeur d'Alene. North Yakima, Spo-
kane and Walla Walla,
