The governor will probably call a
primary election to be held in the
Fifth congressional district to select
candidates for congressman, to fill the
vacancy made by the resignation of
Judge J. Stanley Webster, for some
time in June, with the election to fol-
low early in the fall 1t has been al
most conceded that Judge Hill will be
the democratic candidate with little or
no opposition. When it first became
known that vacancy was to exist in
the Fifth district it was generally
supposed that Judge Hill would have
no opposition in the primaries, but
some opposition to this cut and dried
scheme has developed among cliques
of democrats in Spokane, VINO feel
that the field should be open to any
aspirant There will be no lack of can
didates on the republican ticket, as
several have announced their intention
to run and all the returns are far from
being in. The democrats are cock sure
of carrying the district, but there is
many slip between cup and lip.

every town and hamlet w,thin u ra-
dius of many miles. 0kanogar county

The Gazette cannot give its undivid-

fled their intention to stand for the

A statement has been published to
the effect that President Harding pro-
poses to stand on platform during
the campaign of 1924 advocating the
strict enforcement of the prohibition
law. For one, We admire the stand ne
has taken upon this important ques-
ton. There has developed much Op-
position to the prohibition amend
ment to the constitution, but it is
firmly believed that this opposition
comes from small minority Of the
people, short of numbers but long
with noise. The president openly and
outspokenly taking the side of prohi
bition the democrats will have to in
dorse his position, hedge on the ques-
ton or come out flatfooted against
the Volsted law. Then it will be for
the great mass of the people to reg
lister their verdict, and those who en-
dorse the presidents attitude feel sat.

Last week two daring aviators made
the nonstop airplane flight across the

FOUR TONS HAULED MILE
FOR NICKEL BY SOUTHERN

Atlanta, Ca, June 7.-Fivs cents
for handling one ton Of freight four
miles, or four tons one mile, was
the average resolved by the, South
ern Railway System during 1922.
Figures which have just been COM
piled, covering the operations Of
the Southern for the year, show
that 51,327,645 tons were handled
an average distance of 1852 miles.
The average amount received by
the Southern for hauling a ton Of
freight this distance was 1924,
making the receipts from carrying
one ton Of freight one mile 1.26
cents-equivalent to carrying one
ton four miles, or four tons one
mile for nickel.
These figures cover the receipts
from every class of freight from
sand to silk shirts and for all dis
tances, from local hauls Of a few
miles to transcontinental shipments
and exports and imports.

IRREGULAR TEETH

When the teeth once come into
their natural position in the mouth
there is seldom any disturbance
during the process Of eruption.
Teeth that are irregular require
much more effort on the part Of
nature than those that are normal.
It is like the ninety and nine that
went not astray. The good sheep
caused no trouble and walked right
into the fold, but the one irregular
one kept the shepherd out all night
in the wet when he should have been
asleep.
One Of the causes Of irregularity
in the teeth is the uneven develop
ment Of the jaw bones themselves,
due to the effect Of childhood fevers
and to Assesses or too early loss
or too long retention Of temporary
teeth.
The density or hardness of the
jaw bones Is produced by the order
ly laying down Of lime salts. Any
inflammation may cause this uneven
development.
More than usual resistance to the
movement of an erupting tooth
through the bone will cause the
tooth either to choose the route Of
least resistance or to give up hope
and become impacted, that is, not
to erupt at all.
Whenever the teeth of child are
irregular, that child suffers not on
ly from lack of proper masticatior
and appearance and form Of the
mouth and face, but actually from
a very considerable backward pres
sure of blood from the region Of
the jaws.
This causes adenoids and conges-
ton Of the membranes Of the nose
and in great many instances ner.
vous conditions that interfere witt
the disposition and development Of
the child. Irregular teeth should
be Strengthened at the first oppor-
tunity.
