about It, or both."
Another portion of the verdict is as fol
lows: "We further recommend that. In
cases of this serious nature, medical as
sistance should be secured as quickly as

FRUIT OUTLOOK GOOD.
Continued Cold Rains Have Kent Sap
From Starting.
SALEM, March 21. J. R. Shepard, a
well-known fruitgrower of Zena, Polk
County, says that conditions are now
very promising for a good fruit crop this
season. He says the continued cold rains
have kept the trees back so that the sap
did not start early. This lessens tho
chance of damage by heavy freezing.
The trees will not begin to blossom un
til about April 1, and In view of tho long
spell of rainy weather it is reasonable to
expect that there will be fair weather
during the blossoming season. Mr. Shep
ard says that cold rains while the trees
are in blossom are likely to injure the
crop, but with one week of fair weather
the pollen will s-pread and the fruit be
come set
Local nurserymen are just filling the
last of their orders for Spring delivery.
They say that there has been a larger
demand for fruit trees this year .than
there has been before in 10 years. The
demand comes from all parts of the
Northwest, and not from particular lo
calities, as has usually been the case.
The largest demand is for apple trees and
winter varieties are In favor.

"CURED" LAW IS INVALID
DECISION ON ASSESSMENTS FORT
DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS.
Supreme Coart Holds All -Moneys
From Sales of School Xaads
Must Go to That Faad.
OLYMPIA, Wash., March 2L The Su
preme Court, in a decision today, declare
unconstitutional section 8 of the 1S95 law
relating to the collection Qf assessments
in ditch or drainage Improvement dis
tricts. The section declared unconstitu
tional provides that the county in which
the improvement Is made shall pay tho
assessment apportioned against school
lands out of its general fund, and have a
Hen on the proceeds of the sale of such
lands, from which the county Is to be
reimbursed.
The court bases Its decision on the
ground that the proceeds from the sale
of school lands .cannot be directly or in
directly diverted from the permanent or
irreducible school fund of tho state, and
NEW COMMANDS

On March 25, Major-Gcneral Arthur MacArthur and Brigadier-Generals Fun

His successor will be Brlgadlcr-General Funston. Brtgadlcr-pencral Kobbc has

holds the section In question In conflict
with section 5. article 6. of the constitu
tion. This decision is of especial Interest
because of the fact that the section under
mention was Incorporated in the law of
1S95 to cure a defect that had previously
had the effect of declaring the law un
constitutional. First Execution Under New Law.
What will probably be the first execu
tion under the law compelling tho hang
ing of murderers at the State Penitentiary
will be that of Alfred Hamilton, for kill
ing D. M. Woodbury, at Anacortes, Sep
tember 7. 1899. The Supreme Court re
cently affirmed the Judgment of the lower
court, which found Hamilton guilty of
murder In the first degree. Hamilton Is
now confined In the King County Jail, as
the Skagit County jail Is not considered
secure. According to the reckoning of
the authorities of Skagit County, the ex
ecution of Hamilton should take place by
May L The rcmittitus should be received
from the Supreme Court within a day or
two. As Hamilton is a dangerous man. it
Is thought not much longer than the low
est time limit will be allowed him to pre
pare for death. Governor McBrlde, who
assisted In prosecuting the case, has re
fused to Interfere, and Hamilton has
therefore nothing to hope for from tho
executive. As soon as sentence Is passed,
Hamilton will be conveyed to the peni
tentiary to await execution.
Oyster Beds a Lively Place Novr.
The oyster-tonglng season began March
15. and the seed beds in this section pre
sent a lively scene as a result. It is said
tne seed. Deas on ine siaie resetveu m
both North Bay and Hood's Canal were
severely Injured by the recent cold snap.
The narrows In Mason County will prob
ably receive the most attention from-men
desiring seed, as they are reported less
serlqusly Injured by the frost. Oysters
are now selling for M and 14 25 a sack,
and the demand is good, the shippers hav
ing a market for all the bivalves obtain
able. The cold spell caught many of the
beds exposed by low tides, and the loss
to oystermen will therefore be considera
ble In the aggregate.
Cedar Prices Worry Mlllraen.
The high price at which cedar logs rtre
held In this section Is beginning to worry
shingle manufacturers. On lower Puget
Sound cedar has recently brought 512 and
even $12 50 a thousand, and in some In
stances shlnglemen have been compelled
to go to British Columbia to get timber
to kuodIv the demand. This la the high
est price ever paid for cedar on Puget
Sound, andlt is due to the fact that that
claFS of timber is exceedingly scarce. The
demand for
hlngles in the East was
ncver better, and the various mills find
It lmDOfsible to fill all the orders they
could get. A man owning a few acres or
cedar available to water or rail trans
portation JuBt at this time Is Insured of a
small-sized fortune.
BASE LINE OF MINING CLAI3IS.
Important Decision of Gold Commis
sioner at Dawson.
Late advices from Dawson contain the
decision of an Important case in tho Gold
Commissioner's office, involving the
question of what shall be the base line
in creeks where there are many twists
and turns, or where the banks are any
thing but even and in one gcneraL di
rection. The gist of the decision Is that
a point should be taken and designated
the center of tho stream, and the center
of the creek claim then be made a line
drawn parallel to the base line of the
creek through the given point. This de
cision establishes a precedent In this re
spect and will enable all to determine
how to form the base line of adjoining
hill or bench claims, as well as of the
creek claims. The decision will affect a
large number of claims In the territory.
Frank C. Whalbey, in writing from the
Koyukuk country, expresses the opinion
that the resources of the section have
been overestimated outside, and that it
may bring in a crowd who will be disap
pointed. He says his diggings did not
come up to what was expected laBt year,
and there has been nothing new found.
He falls to sec anything In the country
to justify a stampede, and alleges that all
tho reports sent out to encourage Immi
gration have been made by Baloon-keep-ers
and townslto boomers.
The Zero Club tendered a reception to
H. D. Baylor, who recently arrived in
Dawson as United States Consul. The in
vitation Inviting Mr. Saylor to the re
ception, was engraved on a miniature
gold pan.

AT DEATH'S DOOR
FROM KIDNEY DISEASE
Mrs. A. M. Leland of Muscongus, Me., Suffered So Much
From Kidney Disease That Life Was a Burden to
Her. Her Doctors Gave Her Up to Dje.
WARNER'S SAFE CURE
Cured Her and Restored Her to Perfect Health; She Is
Now Able to Do Her Own Housework.
CURED MRS. LELAND
Thousands of Men and Women Have Kidney Disease and
Do Not Know It Until Bright's Disease, Diabetes
or Urinary Trouble Have Set In.
A TRIAL BOTTLE OF WARNER'S SAFE CURE, THE WORLD'S GREATEST
KIDNEY CURE, SENT ABSOLUTELY FREE TO EVERY REAiDER OF THE
OREGONIAN.
Gentlemen: I wish to let you know of the good that Warner's Safe Cure and War
ner's Safe Pills have done for me.
Last Spring I. was stricken with what tho doctors pronounced liver and kidney
disease, and lay in an semi-conscious state and my death was expected at any mo
ment. Two doctors gave me up, told my family I could not live tho day out. My
feet, legs and whole body were fearfully swollen, and I was so lame and sore all
over that to move In bed almost took my life. I gasped for breath, and my heart's
action was so unnatural as to cause serious alarm. After I had been given up to
die by two doctors, my family, knowing that Warner's Safe Cure had done so much
for ray daughter, purchased a bottle of Warner's Safe Cure and a box of pills, and
when I was at the point of death and my clothes all waiting to dress me for my last
resting place, they began to give me Warner's Safe Cure. I took It every hour
or two through the night, and at the turn of this same nic;ht the kidneys began to
act and the swellings gradually subsided. The lever abated, my lameness improved
nnd last, of all, my breath became natural. I was drenched with perspiration.
The whole story, told briefly, is simply this
From lying at death's door, bloated from head to foot, panting for breath like a
dog. arter a long chase, heart beating two beats and skipping two or, so faint could
hardly hear it, pulse a great deal over one hundred, and a stupor that could not be
controlled, this was my condition when I took Warner's Safe Cure, and I can only
say that it saved my life, and that is oil that is claimed for It.
The doctors called my disease hardening of the kidneys, and It must be quite a
surprise to the doctors to learn that I'm doing- my housework. Feeling It a duty I
owe to you to write of my wonderful cure, I am, yours truthfully. (Mrs.) A. M.
LELAND, Muscongus, Maine. January 1, 1902.
Thousands of letters like Mrs. Leland's are received every day from thankful
men and women who have been cured by Warner's Safe Cure.
