SETS A RECORD OF 2.os

All the world loves a winner and
simply idolizes champion. Conse-
quently when the world champion
stallion, George Gano 2 :O2 appeared
in action at the Stevens County Fair
on Tuesday, September 29th, a record
breaking crowd was on hand to see
him perform. 1t is not alone with
speed that Gano can draw and enter
tain big crowd. for his extreme
beauty and fiashy style are worth a
trip of many miles to any one who
loves a fine horse. So handsome is
he, and so perfect in form. that his
thousands of admirers in all parts Of
the country. know him by bis. very ap-
propriate nickname of "The Picture
Horse. y His brilliant bay coat,
beautiful clean.cut head, prominent
eye, delicate ear, perfectly moulded
body, and his wealth of name and tail
make him as near individual per-
fection as any horse can be. He is a
perfect gentleman in his manners
too, never makes break, and conse-
quently can always be depended upon
to give a fast and satisfactory exhibi-
tion.
1t was most sensational perform
ance to witness and when Gano ap-
peared on the track Tuesday after
noon an immense crowd was on had,
tuned to the highest pitch of excit-
ment. The horse and the sternly set
face of their driver showed conclusive

The EAUTOCONTEST

The report of the judges for
the Examiners big automobile
contest which closed Sept. 5 was:
We, the undersigned judges in
the Colville Examiner contest
just closed find the following to
be- correct count of the different
candidates:
Sonora Beaumont 1,130, 800
Buick touring car.
Edith Yeager 299, 000-Dia-
mond ring.
Edna Sheherdson 258, ,000-

Honorable mention.
Signed: Louis G. Keller, A. B.
Sansburn, Henry R. Spedden,
judges.
Promptly at 8 o'clock Saturday
evening the judges started the
count, and before 9 o'clock each
contestant had been given an
order for her respective prize.
The Buick was in front of the
office, and Miss Beaumont was
given immediate possession. The
three prizes at Rich's were de-
livered by him at his store upon
receiving the Examiners order
from the winning contestants.
And thus the greatest contest in
the history of Colville was finish
ed-every promise having been
fulfilled in full detail.
The Examiner has received a
vast amount of good publicity,
has collected considerable money
on back subscription, but best of
all has largely increased it's cir
culation. For more than a year
the Examiner has had the largest
circulation of any weekly paper
in Stevens county. Now the
list is so much larger, that the
prestige of the Examiner is as
sured for many more years.
That Kettle Falls should again
carry off first prize in an Exam
iner contest was rather surprise
to all of US, although we realized
that the Columbia river business
was almost unlimited in possi-
bilities. Since taking over the
subscription list of the Kettle
Falls Scimitar nearly two years
ago, the Examiner has been prac-
tically the only means of general
publicity for that great, rich
valley. With the immense in
crease of names on the list now,
it not only gives the Columbia
valley better publicity, but
gives the people of this Colville
valley a better chance to
reach their river neighbors
with the news of this valley.
The Examiner is glad to state
that the work of the contestants
was good. The character of their
canvass benefited the standing of
this paper, and we only wish
that all of them could have had
Buick for their work. Especially
pleasing were the reports brought
in almost daily by the contestants
as to their ready success in get
ting subscriptions. 1t shows
that the unchanging character of
the Examiners policy is apprec-
lated by peopleof all political par
ties regardless of the fact that the
Examiner has been steadfast in
it's advocacy of the principles OF
democracy.

house must be equipped with a
mail box. The Examiner will
give away a limited number of
mail boxes to its subscribers.
These boxes are large, durable,
weather and water proof, and
can be locked with a paddock,
and are handsomely built for
general use. They can be attach
ed to the door or sash, and they
will cost you nothing.
While they last one will be
given with every dollars worth
of subscription money paid into
the Examiner. When they are
gone, the offer expires.
Or. while they last, one will be
given with every $3.50 paid into
the Examiner for subscription to
any of the many magazines or
papers which the Examiner has
on it's clubbing list. This list in
cludes practically all the leading
magazines, weekly and monthly.
The only qualification to this offer
is that you must be a paid in ad-
vance subscriber to the Examiner
to get a mail box on subscription
to any other paper or magazine.
If you have any idea that this
offer is not BIG ONE, come in
and see one of the mail boxes, and,
see for yourself how much one of
them would cost you. You can't
buy one of them, but you can have
one free by taking advantage of
either of the above offers.
The number is limited. The
first who come will get them.
DR.. Carl Alsburg, the head of
the Bureau of Chemistry of the
Department of Agriculture in
Washington, is strong for over
coming our national prejudice
against certain fish that are
plentiful and in many cases are
used freely by other countries.
Why eat the oyster and spurn
the sea mussel. In Europe the
latter is eaten in vast quantities;
it is delicious too. 1t should take
no more courage to eat the first
mussel than the first oyster.
Then there is the dogfish. 1t
belongs to the shark family, and
it's favorite diet is lobster; we call
it a dogfish simply because it
doesn't resemble a dog. The
lobster is threatened with extinc-
ton unless man can be persuaded
to eat the dogfish. It's flesh is
very sweet and delicate, and can
be cut in steaks like cod. Besides
being splendid food, the dogfish
so abounds on our coasts that
it should be used as fertilizer
also. The oil from it's liver is as
good as cod liver oil.
The oyster is in many ways
the prince of sea foods; quart
of oysters contains about the
same food value as quart of
milk or three-quarters of a pound
of beef.
AS regards the relative value
of sea foods and meat, the only
considerable difference is in the
fat which goes with the meat.
Fish and meat are about equally
digestible. 1t takes about six
pounds of sirloin steak and about
an equal amount of Goldfish to fur
nish a pound of protein, and cod
costs 16 cents a pound and sir
loin costs 30 cents. Herring
has the same nitrogen value as
pork, and mackerel nearly as
much.
There is no warrant for the
popular notion that fish is brain
food because of the PHOSPHORUS
in it. Fish have no more phosph-
orous in their flesh than any other
food animals; nor is phosphorous
more essential to the brain than
nitrogen or potassium or any
other element. The Dietetic and
Hygienic Gazette.

authority upon matters financial
in 1907 was then Senator Nelson
w. Aldrich, of Rhode Island.
Aldrich was high priest of
the Republican tariff and financial
doctrine. Not only that. he was
the leader of his party in Cong
ress. On February 10, 1903,
delivering a set speech in the
Senate, Aldrich described the
panic of 1907 as the most acute
and disastrous in the history of
the country. He said: "Mr Presi-
dent, the financial crisis from
which the country has just emer-
ged which eliminated in
serious panic. in October, was
the most acute and disastrous
in it's immediate consequences OF
any that has occurred in the
history of the country. Nothing
but the heroic measures taken by
the representative of the great
business and financial interests of
the country. acting in cooperation
with the secretary of the treas
ury, prevented a total collapse of
private credit and a disastrous
destruction of all values. 1t Is
impossible to conceive, much less
to measure, the losses which
would result from such a calamity.
The country was saved by
the narrowest possible margin
from An overwhelming catas-
trophe, whose blighting effects
would have been felt in every
household" Leslie M. Shaw,
former Governor of Iowa, who
then had recently retired as Sec
retary of Treasury, in a public
speech declared that the panic
of 1907 was generally conceded
to be the worst that the world
has witnessed.
When we co Isider that the
panic of 1907 came almost in the
middle of 16 years of continuous
republican rule and that the
republican party did nothing to
prevent panics, we are apt to
notice almost the first thing
accomplished by the democrats
was a currency bill to prevent
panics. Not only in currency
matters, but along other needed
lines, which party seems to have
tried to accomplish things? And
which party has put remedial
laws on the statute books?

Now that the primary is over
it would be a good time for all
the republican candidates for all
the various offices to unite in
showing the voters how the dem
ocratic tariff is killing industry
in this country, robbing the farm
ers, flooding the country with
foreign wheat, meat, foodstuffs,
and generally raising the devil
with the country. Their party
predicted these things now
would be the proper time to rub
it in. If they let the present
glorious opportunity pass, the
public might get to believe that
their predictions were dishonest
ly made for political reasons only.

Four loud ground shaking explosions
just at dark last night brought the resi-

just what had happened. but the excite
ment reached the panic stage when a
shouting man ran out OF the basement al

The trouble was In a sewer. where an

covers In the block as high as the third
stories of the houses. broke a number Of
windows and threw down persons walk

The manhole cover at Park avenue and
Eighty-third street was the first to go
and the others followed with the precision
of a II inch gun battery. The exodus
from the houses began before the fourth
manhole ended the fusillade.
The man afiamc was Joseph Barnard

Bronx. He was at work repairing gas
pipes, when a sheet of fire came shooting
into the basement along the pipes, ignited
the gas and caused n lesser explosion that
