whereas Gibbons may knock out
p Ahearn Mike has done il once before,
so what is TO prevent a recurrence 1t

a man who has once fattened a rival

Gibbons Knocked Out Ahearn.
Mike Gibbons knocked out Ahearn
here on June ]. 1913 The bout lasted
four rounds, and Ahearn was quite con-
tent 10 take the long count. as he was
completely outclassed by Gibbons Some
may contend that Ahearn was a novice
when he submitted TO this licking To
disprove this contention it might be
mentioned that at the time Of this bout
Gibbons was in the game five years,
while Ahearn had been battling Just
enc year less
A superficial examination of the rec
ords of Gibbons and Ahearn reveals
some interesting facts Mike has never
been stopped, while Ahearn has been
knocked out three times. including the
setback at the hands OF gibbons
Packey Mcfarland and Jean Badoud

TO Be PRESENTED
State Land Board Considers
Affairs of Salmon River
Project.

The state land board at a meeting
today refused to approve completion
of the works on the Salmon river pro-
ject at this time when Project Manager
Hall renewed his request that such ac-
ton be taken. Instead the board dis
cussed the project situation at length
with the result there are very good
prospects OF It reaching a conclusion

be presented to the settlers a concrete
plan for then to settle their difficulties
with the bondholders. II this can be
brought about 1t will remove one of the
most aggrevating Carey act project sit
nations which has developed in this
state Members of the land board are
working earnestly to formulate such a
plan. They look upon the Salmon riv-
er troubles of importance n-far-as a
settlement is concerned.
Consider Plano at Length.
The board was in session all morn
ing with Governor Alexander. Secretary
of State Barker and Attorney General
Peterson in attendance. State Aud
itor Huston is absent, having been
called to Idaho Falls on business. These
three members consulted with Project
Manager Hall at length. The fact that
there is too much land within the con-
fines of the project for irrigation from

JURY IS STILL OUT
IN THE SHEtHAN CASE

The jury which took under consid-
GRAFTON last evening the case of Doc
j. A. Sheehan and May Sheehan,
charged with operating a bawdy house,
has not vet reached an agreement. This
morning at 80 o'clock George w.
Scharf. the foreman. reported to Judge
c. p. Mccarthy that it did not look as
though an agreement could be reached.
as the jury had balloted without q
change since o'clock last night
Judge Mccarthy informed the Jurors
that it was their duty if possible TO
reach an agreement and again had
them locked up. Up to late hour this
afternoon nothing more was heard
from them and as the day grows old the
possibilities for an agreement vans.
A few of the spectators interested in
the case have hung around the corridor
of the court house all day waiting for
4 verdict.

NO MORE BACkACHE
NO MORE MISERY

Hundreds of people have been re-
lieved of the agonies caused by weak.
diseased or clogged-up kidneys by
using Solvax. the new remedy that
quickly reaches the source of all kid
ney complaints.
If you suffer with pains in your
back and sides or have any signs of
Kidney or bladder trouble such as
rheumatic pains. puffy swellings I'M
der the eyes or in the feet and an
kles. If you are nervous. tired and run
down. or bothered with urinary dis
orders. Solvax will quickly and sure
ly relieve you of your misery.
SolvaX is the most potent remedy
yet devised for Kidding the system OF
uric acid and driving out all the pois-
onous impurities which cause such
troubles. 1t neutralizes. dissolves and
makes the kidneys sift out all the uric
acid and poisons left by the blood. and
renders the kidneys and urinary or
gans clean, vigorous and healthy.
Chas. l.. JOY & Co. the popular drug
gists. say that no medicine ought to
be paid for unless It does the user
some good. The Joy Drug Stores there
fore sell Solvax under a positive guar
antee to quickly relieve the worst
cases of kidney trouble or refund the
money Try Solvax today and II you
cannot see and feel a decided change
for the better. just go to the Chas.
l.. Joy & Co. and tell them you want
your money back and they will re-
turn it without question. This is the
strongest argument that can be Of
fered in behalf of any medicine.-Adv.

manager and the II embers of the land
board held different views as to how
many acres of land should be cut out
of the project. 1t is the claim of the
manager that the construction work of
the project is complete so far as the
contract with the state Is concerned.
For that reason he insisted that the
board pass its approval on 1t. The
members of the board did not feel that
they should be called upon at this time
to take action along that line.
Attorney General Peterson was in
structed to redraft the various pro-
posals made to bring the settlers and
the bondholders together This task
he performed this afternoon and the
draft was then presented to the board.
It. is very probable that a general con-
ference between the board, the settlers
and the bondholders to be held either
at Boise or HOLSTER will be called for
the near future to consider the boards
proposals at length.

CLEARING DOCKET
OF C|TY'S CASES
Number Are Dismissed on
Motion of the City
Attorney.

Five of the city cases brought
about by the raids here last fall by
Portland detectives were dismissed by
Judge Carl Davis and Judge G. p.
Mccarthy this afternoon upon motion
of the city attorney, who stated that
the evidence in the cases asked dis
missed was practically the same as in
others in which a conviction was not
secured and he felt it would be best
to dismiss the cases rather than put
the county to further expense.
The cases dismissed included those
of Babe" Kelly and Bessie Boy,
charged with being inmates of bawdy
houses, which were on Judge Davis
calendar. The case of Emma Smith,
charged with being an inmate OF a
bawdy house, was dismissed by Judge
Mccarthy and also the two cases
against Mr.. and Mrs. H. A. Rolio,
charged with the unlawful selling OF
liquor and operating a bawdy house.
The case of Henrietta Smnth,
charged with operating a bawdy hous,
was continued owing to the illness of
the defendant
In the abatement case involving the
Gem rooming house, j. p. Pope, city
attorney, asked that the case be set
for trial as the witnesses were here
from outside points causing heavy
expense. AS this case is to be tried
by judge from some outside dis
trict, probably Ed L. Bryan or Judge
Boutwell,. the case could not be def
nitely set at this time, but the clerk
of the court was instructed to COM
municate with those judges a once to
ascertain when they would be able to
preside at the case

CONSUMPTION KILLS
 MANY IN ARKANSAS
White Plague Cause of More Deaths Than Any Other
 One Disease

Statistics compiled by the State Health Officer, from the imperfect records which it is possible to secure under the present law for the collection of vital statistics, some inter esting facts may be deduced. It is estimated that only about TO per cent of the births and deaths were reported. The re- ports, however, that have been received, come from every county in the state, and give an accurate idea of the relative prevalence of the various dis eases. There were 3269 deaths from tuberculosis, of which 1868 were white and 1406 were negro. Pneumonia caused 2896 deaths, malaria 2369, and vari- ous other diseases were respon- sible for other deaths. It is ap- parent that the colored race is much more susceptible to tu- berculosis than the white.
 "The Great White Plague" still causes more deaths than any other one disease. While there are more deaths from pneumonia than from malaria, the mortality from pneumonia is about 10 per cent, while that of malaria is less than half of one per cent. The typhoid death rate is also about 10 per cent.
 Dr. c. ". Garrison points out the legal and prejudieial handieaps ,n the way of build ing up an effective public health service in Arkansas, and makes important suggestions for changes in the laW.He says:
 '"The ideal public health ser vice would be a full time Coun- ty Health Officer in each coun- ty, whose duty it would be to conserve the public health of the county, and devote no time to the practice of medicine. The appointment of local health of ficers would be on a semi-ciVil service basis rather than on a political basis, as it now is. At the present time, however, it is not deemed advisable to advo- cate the full-time health offl- cer, owing to the financial con- dition of the state. But 1t ap- pears that under the circum- stances existing at the present time there should be some de- finite plan adopted whereby each county shall have a coun- ty health officer to perform the duties of public quarantine and isolation, caring forthe inmates

HE HOUSEWIFE GETS HER
 MONEYS WORTH

Time was when the house. wife practiced loose methods in purchasing her foodstuffs.
 But not in this age of the high cost of living. Today she practices business methods, and she makes it a point to get her moneys worth.
 In her selection of foodstuffs she devotes much thought. She studies the food market and familiarizes herself with the different brands of foods.
 When she strikes the right article she sticks to it. She wants the best at the lowest cost and she gets it if she fol- lows the right methods of se- lection.
 The housewife should give careful consideration to the baking powder, tea, coffee, flour and other similar foods if she is to get full value for her money.
 There is always one best brand in every line, and it is the housewife's duty to find that brand.
 Some women prefer one kind of baking powder while other women demand differ ent kind. There is one baking powder that has been on the market for years-Calumet- which apparently from its steady sales and increased popularity, hits the happy med ium and pleases every house. wife no matter what her de- mands.
 In practicing foods be sure that you practice caution and you'll get the best.

be the attitude of the admins tration, and it is believed that the General Assembly will be dry by a large majority. There is no talk of any effort to secure a repeal of the Pro- hibition law, since the over whelming defeat of a measure of that character by the people in the recent election. The sen timent is that there must be no halfway enforcement of the liquor laws, and that Arkansas must be made what the people are demanding-bone-dry.

RESTRICT SHIPMENT
 LIQUOR INTO STATE
Legislature Will be Asked to Enact Law Permitting Towns
 To Tax Shipments

Bills are being drawn by the Anti-Saloon League, to be in- troduced early in the Legisla- tive session, for the further re- striction and regulation of li- quor shipments into the state. This is in line with the move ment started by Ransdall of louisiana in Congress, to pro- hibit the use of the mails in the solicitation of liquor orders.
 The bill which the Arkansas General Assembly will be ask ed to pass is modelled after the law now in effect in Mississippi. It restricts shipments of liquor in various ways, and prohibits the circulation of advertising matter for liquor houses, through the medium of news papers, picture shows, or oth- erwise. It also provides that town or city councils may by ordinance provide for the in- spection of liquor shipments by freight, express, or other wise, prescribing a fee for the same. As conditions now exist, the saloon has changed it's To- cation, to some point outside the state, whence it solicits business by mail, and makes delivery by freight or express without paying any revenue whatever. The prevalent senti- ment seems to be in favor of making the prohibition laws of the state liquor-tight. This will

The election is over and every body knows the result in two or three days, at most, by the mail, generally horseback. No telegraph, telephone, railroad, nor rapid communication, and no squabble, no eontest,as now.
 Over a month has passed since the election, and in many sections they have not learned the result of the election yet. I noticed a few days ago that the state of Ohio will have to recount the ballots for the whole state.
 But, don't forget the whiskey flowed freely throughout the three days and many an old Whiskey fiend was laid away by friends in the shade, and every evening we boys enjoyed the fiddling and dancing by the negroes.
