NAMPA'S BIG HOTEL
TAXED TO CAPACITY

Nampa, Dec. 6.--The great measure
OF prosperity being enjoyed by this
city is strongly reflected by the fact
that the guest capacity of the Dewey
Palace hotel is taxed to its limit all
the while. Through the progressive
ness of Robert Davis. Jr., the mana
ger of the Dewey Davis estate. which
owns the popular hosiery, the hotel
has been made comparable to the best
in the west and it is the purpose of
the manager of the hotel, r. n. Kerr,
who has had an experience as hotel
manager in some of the more import
ant cities, to keep it up to the high
standard desired by Mr.. Davis.
Under its present management, the
hotel is the recipient of much praise
from the commercial men of the coun-
try and the reorganization of the
Dewey club, an organization of the
commercial men of the west, means
much. for it is destined to prove
strong and favorable publicity factor
both for the hotel and the city.

Clear, PeaChy Skin
Awaits Anyone Who
Drinks Hot Water
Says an inside bath, before break
fast helps Us look and feel
clean, sweet, fresh.

Sparkling and vivacious-merry,
bright, alert-a good, clear skin and a
natural, rosy, healthy complexion are
assured only by pure blood. If only
every man and woman could be in
duced to adopt the morning inside
bath, what gratifying change would
take place. Instead of the thousands
of sickly, anaemic-looking men, women
and girls, with pasty or muddy COM
plexions; instead of the multitudes Of
nerve wrecks" 'rundowns," brain
flags" and pessimists we should see a
virile, optimistic throng of rosy-cheek-
ed people everywhere.
An inside bath is had by drinking
each morning, before breakfast, glass
Of real hot water with teaspoonful of
limestone phosphate in it to wash from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten
yards of bowels the previous days in
digestible waste, sour lamentations
and poisons, thus cleansing sweetening
and freshening the entire alimentary
canal before putting more food into
the stomach.
Those subject to sick headache, bill
liousness, nasty breath, rheumatism,
colds; and particularly those who have
a pallid, sallow complexion and who
are constipated very often, are urged
to obtain quarter pound of limestone
phosphate at the drug store which will
cost but trife, but is sufficient to de-
monstrate the quick and remarkable
change in both health and appearance,
awaiting those who practice internal
sanitation. We must remember that
inside cleanliness is more important
than outside impurities to contaminate
the blood while the pores in thirty feet
of bowels do.

BASEBALL HAS THE
THRILL THIS EARLY.

New, if we were living UP there in old
Nashville, Tennessee, naturally, our
thoughts would turn to how much
longer will the team be able to keep
up its stride, And the echo would re-
sound, How Long?" That Nashville
team seems to have everything to win

would be contender, but not the win
ner.
And now that team just to show the

Southern circuit. How she does it will

long remain mystery, but she is right
there just the same. They seem to
have a well-balanced machine, but
again that little old pest called dope
hops up and says that the team has no
pitchers able to stad the strain of
strenuous Southern League race. But
the battig ability of the squad is left
entirely alone. And that must be
where the secret lies.
On the other hand, Atlanta with
much more balanced machine is only
able to hold her pace as third one in
the race. The phenomenal games
Nashville and New Orleans have been
laying, unless they slump entirely,
will utterly eliminate the hard workers
Of Charlie Franks from winning any
sort of rag. Both teams may be play
ing away above form, but that doesn't
rean that they necessarily have to
blow up to smithereens.

only break they made was in breaking

FREEDOM PLAN
OF INDEPENDENCE FOR PHIL
lPPlNES FINAL DEFEAT OF
BILL CERTAIN REGARDLESS OF
PARTY PLEDGE.

Washington, May Sitting as n
committee of the whole. the house
Monday night voted 1873 to 151 to
! eliminate the provision of the Philip
pines bill authorizing the president
| to grant independence to the Islands
| in four years. This was accepted as
meaning defeat for the sections on a
final vote.
Defending the Clark amendment,
Representative Jones, author of the
bill. declared that the choice pre-
scented to the senate was between
a vague, meaningless and almost in
conceivable proposition and an hon
est effort to redeem the solemn pro
misses Of the democratic party
"Without the loyalty and co-opera-
ton of the Philippine people he
added. "it would not be possible for
the United States to hold and de-
fend the institutions against foreign
aggression"
Representative Jones pleaded with
the republicans to support the bill
because he said, Colonel Roosevelt
who lis likely to be the next presi-
dental candidate of the republican
party" had approved Philippine In
dependence.
He said more than ninety per cent
of the Filipinos were civilized.
Representative Towner, of Iowa,
ranking republican of the insular
committee. maintained that the pres
ent navy was inadequate to defend

larged, for instead of being source
