Both arguments were settled
when the city hall proposal was
shelved and the use Of rented
quarters was continued. II was
quite a scrap while it lasted.
A cause of jubilation this day
so years ago was the inaugira-
ton Of the new boat service to
Olympia. The new steamer
Washington, built in Tacoma
and one of the fastest on the
sound, started on the run that
day. A distinguished company
of citizens made the trip.
Another bit of transportation
news that day related to the
operation of the steam trains TO
Wapato park via the Tacoma d
Fern Hill Railway. The park.
just opened. was advertised as
the finest recreation center in
the Northwest with unexcelled
facilities for boating and bath
ing in the largest fresh water
lake tributary to Tacoma. That
might have been stretching II a
bit but it was a pretty nice
place according to all the In
formation.
The transportation company
was very much interested in
having the people ride to the
new park. The schedule and
other information was publish
ed in minute detail. In that
the transportation company of
so years ago was more con-
siderate than its successor of
the present day. At least that
is what a lot of people thought
when they stood in the rain on
Commerce street Tuesday and
waited for the buses that did
not come. They had been routed
back on Pacific avenue again
and to a considerable number
of persons the change was a
deep secret.

Your HEALTH
BY DIR. NORRIS F1sHBEIN

Az We have come to learn
more Of the relationship between
the mind and the body. modern
psyehiatry emphasizes that men,
tai disturbances may arise from
physical changes, and that ply
steal conditions in some portions
of the body may be reactions of
the body to emotional disturb
snces or psychological incapa-
city; in some patients both fac
tors may be working at the
same time.
For instance. q man may sur
fer with serious changes In the
circulation In his brain which
would give him dizziness and
headache. At the same time,
however. he might be so fright
ened Of what was happening to
him that he would develop a
state Of constant fear. as
result of which he would lose his
appetite. be unable to sleep and
be constantly depressed.
The modern psychiat rist.
therefore, must approach disease
from both points of view-from
the point of view of the physical
changes that have taken place
In the body and from the point
Of view Of the mental disturb
snces which result in physical
changes. One needs only TO think
Of the reaction OF the average
person when he feels Disguised
at having smelled q bad odor to
realize how an emotional condi-
ton can react physically-thus
he might spit or vomit.
In the same way a person who
has suddenly seen another per-
son shot or fall from a height
may react with physical re-
sponses which are the result of
mental disturbances.
Few people ever stop to realize
how greatly our bodies are con-
trolled by our environment or the
civilization in which we live.

Roosevelt. Unfortunately, his
advisers refuse to make any rosy
promises for the long haul. They
forecast substantial gains for
the next six months-until New
Years, perhaps-but they are
distinctly dubious about condi-
tons beyond that date.
Paul V. McNutt, who inter-
viewed every political, military
and business leader in the Orient
on his homeward trip from the
Philippines, has informed Presi-
dent Roosevelt that Japan is
sure loser in the Sino-Japanese
conflict.
"Japan's invasion" McNutt told
the president and Secretary Hull,
can be likened to putting your
hand in a pail of water. AS long
as you keep your fist there, you
displace certain amount of wa
ter. But once you withdraw
your arm, the water rushes back.
That's what's happening in the
Orient today, Japan being the
fist and China the pail of water"
McNutt also told Roosevelt
and Hull that Uncle Sam must
keep the Philippines, despite the
law casting them off in 1916.
Otherwise, he says, Japan will
grab them as a base for opera
tons against the United States
in war which he regards as in
evitable. Incidentally, the Nc
Mutt personality has made a

CHANGING through the old
files reveals that this day
so years ago Tacoma was not
gay with carnival spirit pre-
vading the community but was
considering serious matters. The
constitutional convention in
Olympia was INDUCING in ora
tory over the number and sal
aries of judges. Because there
were several gentlemen here
who were interested personally
in both angles of the judgeship
issue. the discussion was given a
good deal of thought but the real
issue of the moment was the
city hall.
Whether 'twere better to
build at once and run the
chances of inadequately pro-
viding for the city's future
needs, or put up with the dis
comforts of rented quarters
and wait until the building
fund grew larger-that was
the issue.
One group was anxious TO
spend $4,000 of a special tax
levy for a city hall and fire
station. Another group wanted
the money used to pay for
sewers, street lights, better
water system and more adequate
fire protection apparatus.
Among the latter were Henry
Drum, former mayor and sound
business man. He argued this
way on the city hall project:
Money was worth 10 per
cent in any business. To
spend $4,000 on a city hall
was the same as paying
$1,000 q year rent. The
rented quarters then occupied
by the .city cost only $500 a
year. Plenty of other space
was available and the total
rent would be only little
more than % per cent Of the
interest on the proposed in
vestment.
Mr.. Drum advised waiting I'M
til the city, then rapidly grow
ing, had settled down and the
council had made a survey to
determine just what character
of building would be required
for present and future needs.
He also argued that to build
sewers, improve the water sys-
TEN, provide street lights and
buy more fire department equip
ment would be of greater adj
vantage to the city than an
ornate city hall.
There also was some discus
sion about the location. One
choice was the corner Of Ninth
and &C street" which the Ia

ing to sell at a reasonable
price. Robert Wingate and
others were opposed to that To-
cation. They thought it should

TONGUE RIVER
PIONEER DIES
FRANK N. HERMAN, OLD-TNiE
CATTLE AND HORSE RANCH
Err PASSES AWAY

Frank N. Herman, widely
known pioneer of the Tongue
river valley, died at Warm Springs
recently as a result of hardened
arteries, diabetes and general Sc
nile changes. Herman was one of
the colorful range figures Of early
days in eastern Montana. During
his career he operated a; ranch in
the Tongue river valley, south of
Miles City. His domicile was al
ways open, and welcomes were ex-
tended to all and sundry who passed
by his way.
He was born in Norway on Feb %,
1856. He came to Minnesota with his
parents in 1850, where the son was
raised on a new frontier in America
at the time.
The west called Herman when he
was IA. In 1870 he sought adventure.
His first engagement was assisting in
driving a bunch of cattle from Min
nesota to the Red Cloud agency in
Nebraska, for the Indians.
Coming to Montana in the early
eighties Herman operated a stage from
Miles City to Ashland. He conducted
sawmin on Little Pumpkin. He pur-
chased a ranch in the early eighties
near what was then the little COM
munity Of Junction. Being thrifty, he
saved his money for the purpose of
acquiring a ranch for himself as the
opportunity presented. Shortly after
his experiences at Junction. Herman
went into the Tongue river valley,
found that he was pleased with the
land and determined to locate. His
hobby was cattle and horses. with his
greater admiration for horses, which
later he raised exclusively.
