TRIO 6RAPPLED WITH R0BBER
Deed 10 Committed on Great Northern
Railroad Between 8eIiingham,
WASH, and Vancouver.

Bellingham, Wash, Feb 21.-Three
passengers on Great Northern train
No. 1858, bound for Vancouver, were
shot down when they attempted to re-
sist one of trio of holdup men armed
with an automatic pistol.
The band of masked men entered
the train while it was running along
the edge of the bay, nine miles south
of here.
The dead are: Thomas P. Wads
worth, Vancouver, Canadian Pacific
conductor; R. L. Lee, Bremerton
clerk in the navy yard; H. R. Adter
son, Vancouver, travelling salesman.
1t is believed the three bandits
boarded the train at Burlington, few
miles south of the place of the hold
up. They were seen to leave the
smoking car and enter the vestibuIe
between it and the day coach, where
they tied white handkerchiefs about
their faces.
One of the men then entered the
day coach and walked to the real
door, second one stepped just inside
the coach, while the third remained
In the vestibule.
AS the man reached the rear door
and started to lock it the three men
who were killed leaped from their
seats and started graphing with him
Robber Shoots Out Lights.
At that minute the robber, who was
at the forward end of the coach, be
gan shooting into the ceiling of the
car and put out the lights.
The robber, graphing with the three
men, began shooting and fired prob
ably ten shots. Lee was the first man
to fall. The next two shots killed
Wadsworth and McElhoes. Lee was
trying to crawl behind the rear seal
when the bandit turned his gun on
him and fred five or six shots into his
back. None of the shots fired by the
other bandit took effect, but he ter
i rorized the passengers, half dozen
women fainting. r.
The slayer turned and started back
to the front OF the coach. AS he
passed along several women passen
gers held their purses in the aisles
He gathered up handful of them and
then ran. 49, ~. IN z.zss@ -. ,>f u

Don't neglect indigestion, Tor It ire
quently leads to all sorts OF ills and COM
p'ications. The pain and discomfort is
not the most unfortunate part. The fact
that when the stomach is not acting
right, the material needed to repair the
wastes that are constantly taking place
in the body is not being given to the blood
. either in the proper condition or fast
enough is far more serious. Nothing
will cause more trouble than an unhealthy
stomach. The blues, debility, lack of
strength and energy, constipation, bill
iousness, headaches and scores of other
serious ailments result from the failure
of the stomach to properly do it's work.

We Know They're Good

Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, in addition
to other ingredients, contain Pepsin and
Bismuth, two great digestive aids used by
the entire medical profession. They
soothe the inAamed stomach, check the
heartburn and distress, stimulate
healthy secretion of the gastric juice,
| aid in rapid and comfortable digestion
of the food and help to quickly convert
it into rich red blood, and thereby into
flesh, bone and muscle. They relieve
stomach distress promptly, and, used
regularly for short time, tend to re-
store the stomach to comfortable,
easy-acting, healthy state. They aid
greatly to promote regular bowel action.

Resorting To Falsification.

Not satisfied with misrepresenta-
tion, exaggeration and insinuation,
the desperate Republicans are now
resorting to prevarication. Congress-
man Humphrey, of Washington, one
of the most vociferous of the calam-
ity howlers and subsidy shouters,
said In speech in the House In an
effort to create business depression:
'sLast April the balance of trade
against us was s1O,0O0,OOO, the first
time il has been against US since the
old Gorman- Wilson law came went
off the statute books"
The Gorman-W Wilson tariff went of
the statute books in 1897, and no year.
ly balance of trade ran against the
country under II.
But since then and under Republi-
can high tariff the three midsummer
months Of 1909 gave an adverse trade
balance Of $17,7OO,Ooo. In February
OF 1910 the adverse balance was $4,-
100000 in March, S19,20O,0OG il
April, nearly million; In July, $2,-
100000; in August, $4,000, 1000.

The Agile Rev. Hill.

Probably the leading critic of the
Mexican policy Of the Administration
is the Rev. J. Wesley Hill, a subsidized
minister, who has been on the pay roll
of the Republican National Committee
during the past several campaigns.
Rev. Mr.. Hill spoke before before the
National Association OF Piano Mer-
chants of America in New York a
few day ago, and he took advan tage
of the occasion to make an attack on
President Wilson. The New York
Times said his "hearers resented his
remarksn and that his voice was
drowned by singing of the "Star
Spangle Banner" and cheers for Will
son.
If the Rev. Hill does not take care
his services may not be in such great
demand at the Republican National
Headquarters this year.

Missouri Has Good Coal Year.

The production of coal in Missouri
in 1918 was 1918, ,125, short tons, valued
at 81 ,568,30S, decrease compared
with 1912, of 2O,731 tons in quantity
and of $165,556 in value. With the
exception Of 1912, however, the out
put in 1918 was the largest in the
history of the State. The decreased
production in 1918 was due primarily
to the exceptionally mild weather in
February and March, according to E..
w. Parker, Of the United States
Geological Survey, the output in
those two months being nearly 1885,
900 tons less than in the correspond
ing period in 1912. The deficiency
was made up in part by an increased
demand from the railroads. The coal
mining industry suffered somewhat
from the drought during the summer,
and at times water for boiler use had
to be hauled to the mines. Trans
portation facilities were ample and
satisfactory, and there was little in
terruption to mining operations on
account OF labor troubles.
The number Of fatal accidents in
the coal mines in Missouri in 1913 was
reduced to just one-half Of the
fatalities Of the preceding year, OF
from 20 TO 10, according to reports to
Bureau Of Mines.
The occurrence of coal in Missouri
appears to have been known as early
as 1906, when according to Account 81
expeditions to the sources Of the Mis-
sissippi," ETC., by zebulon M. Pike, i
was noted on the banks OF Ohio River
The coal attracted the attention Of the
early settlers and numerous smal

green and other arsenical poisons are
of no value, since this bug takes its
food in the form of sap through a
piercing beak. Cobs saturated in
coal-oil and lighted, are sometimes
used to flash up and down infested
plants for killing bugs. Waste no
time attempting to scatter diseased
bugs, for seeds or spores of the
disease are present in all soils and if
the weather is proper the disease will
develop and destroy the bugs with
out mans aid.
Farmers may help in controlling the
chinch bug by reporting all outbreaks,
as well as the results obtained by u.s.
ing above remedies, to the Missouri

A Combination Against Wilson.

Half way between Presidential cam
paigns, the Republican Party is with
out candidate or an issue, and the
Progressives have candidate and an
issue, but no party. There is an old
tale of man who could not walk,
who climbed upon the shoulders of a
man who could not see, and one fur
nishing the motive power, and the
other the power of direction, the two
cripples reached their destination.
Naturally, some of the Republicans
and Progressives are now hoping to
mount the far-seeing Roosevelt upon
the shoulders of the blind Republican
Party, and so beat Mr.. Wilson in the
next race.
We don't believe the combination
will prove as successful as the COM
bination of the lame man and the
blind in the fable. 1t is easy enough
for politicians to frame a terrible in
dictment against the Democratic Ad-
ministration today, but Wilt look like
a true bill two years hence? The new
tariff has not flooded the country with
foreign goods, and when the railroads
get the freight advance they ask for,
or begin to feel the stimulus of the
huge crops, they will buy freely, and
the very moderate dullness of the
present moment will be forgotten.
Two years hence the country will
have have had two years. experience
with a banking system as much
superior to what preceded it as the
national banking system of half CEN
tury ago was. Perfect amity will have
been restored to our Columbian re-
lations, and the very large part of
the American people who do not ap-
prove of Mr.. Roosevelt's Panama con-
duct will feel that an unpleasant spot
has been erased from the nations fame.
The present Indications are that in
1916 Mexico will be peaceful and
prosperous, the poems having access
to the land. and the general Govern
ment representing public opinion in
stead of combination of military
despotism and financial monopoly.
The great trusts in our own country
will have been disintegrated, with
the result Of increasing the prosperity
of their component parts, ,,and of the
country at large, and of opening the
gates to widespr aad5 and healthful
competition.
What will Republican Progressive
combination avail against such re-
cord? Philadelphia Record.

Keep Up the Chinch Bug Fight.

The chinch bugs are beginning to
migrate fully ten days earlier than
usual. In some places they are al
ready moving into corn fields and
remedies must be applied at once.
Where the pest has not yet begun to
migrate use the dust and chemical
barriers to hold them in the wheat
fields. The best dust barrier can be
made by plowing one or more parallel
bitches and dragging log through
these until every clod has been ground
into fine dust. 1t is the dust, rather
than the ditch, which keeps back the
bugs, so make sure there is plenty of
fine dust. After the ditch has been
properly made tits necessary that the
log be dragged back and forth in it
every few minutes during the warm
part of the day when the bugs are
most active, SO as to keep the dust
stirred. A plowed strip properly
worked SO as to maintain fine dust
mulch will take the place Of the
bitches.
/, In cases of rain dust barrier can
not be maintained and a supply OF
creosote, crude carbolic acid, heavy
road road or coal tar should be on
hand for making a chemical barrier.
Keep the line fresh by adding more
material to prevent them from break.
ing across. Where the chemical IL
thin like oil, apply it by bending the
the edge of pail SO as to form mar
row spout or by driving a nail through
the side of the pail 50 as to per nit
only fine stream to escape as the
line is being formed. A narrow firm
path should first be made with a hoe
shovel or drag along which the chemi
cal is poured. The line need not bt
more than an inch wide If it is re.
newed often enough. Post holes
placed along SO as to touch or cut in
to the line will act as traps into which
the bugs will fall where they ar
easily killed with coal-oil.
Where the pest has already gottei
into the corn, spray or use torch Il

ed is made as follows: dissolve one
half pound Of laundry soap in on
gallon Of water by boiling;- then adj
two gallons Of coal-oil to the ho
