SALOONS MAY RUN SUNDAYS
Idaho Law Forbidding Is Declared
to Be Special Legislation.
BOISE. Idaho, June 20. (Special.)
Judge Stewart, of the District Court,
handed down an opinion this afternoon,
holding the Sunday-closing law passed
by the last Legislature unconstitutional,
because it applies only to territory not
in incorporated towns and villages, and
does not apply to trains and boats carry
ing passengers. It Is. thereiore, local and
special, says the Judge.
The case came up over the application
of the saloon at the Natatorium resort.
Just outside the city limits of Boise, to
remain open Sundays. The law provides
that such application can be made to the
Board of County Commissioners, and, ir
accompanied by a petition by the majority
of the voters at the last election, shall
be granted. In this instance the Com
missioners turned down the application
because the signers of the accompanying
petition were not voters at the time of
the last election.
The Natatorium saloon remained open
on Sundays, and Manager Van JT. Peter
son was arrested for violating the law.
The matter came up on his trial and also
on appeal from the rejection by the Com
missioners of the petition for the saloon
to be kept open.

FIGHTFOR IDAHO NORTHERN
VAX KIPER. TAKES POSSESSION
AT COUNCIL.
Met by Greek Laborers Headed by
Chief Engineer, Who Retreat
. Before Sheriff.
WEISER, Idaho, June 20. (Special.) In
the fight for the control of the Pacific &
Idaho Northern Railway between L. C.
Van Riper and A. C. Cordley and other
Eastern capitalists who are interested in
the road, acting under instructions from
his counsel. Van Riper, Bishop Webster,
one of the directors, and Sheriff Lansdon
went today to Council, the terminus of
the road, to take possession of the rails
and other stock of' the Idaho Construc
tion Company. They were met at the
depot grounds by Chief Engineer Merrick
and a gang of Greek laborers, all armed,
who warned them to keep off the right
of way.
Sheriff Lansdon exhibited his authority,
when the Greeks fell back, but Engineer
Merrick still persisted in his efforts to
keep Bishop and Van Riper off the
ground, until warned by the Sheriff that
he was Interfering with the law. Vice
President and General Manager Heigho
was in Council with his attorney, but
did not show up until the property was
taken possession of by the Sheriff. Other
property will be taken possession of to
morrow. This is the first step in the proceedings
to be taken by Van Riper for possession
of the railroad company, control of which
he claims by right of purchase, having
contracted and paid for 56 per cent of the
stock of the road, which the parties of
whom he purchased it refuse to deliver to
him. Van Riper states the present action
will not lnt'erfere with the extension of
the road, which will be built to Payette
Lakes. 40 miles from its present terminus,
this year, the steel and rolling stock hav
ing already been purchased for delivery
this month.
The present fight for the control of the
road is supposed to be between the Har
riman and Hill interests. If Van Riper
gains control, the road will be extended
to Grangeville, to connect with the North
ern Pacific. The trouble has caused con
siderable excitement in this city, and
further trouble is anticipated. Vice-President
and General Manager Heigho and
Sheriff Lansdon remained at Council and
further proceedings' will be taken tomor
row. Ten miles of the extension of the
road north is graded and several miles of
rails lined.
DAY DIVORCE SUIT BEGINS
Defendant One of the Owners of the
Famous Hercules Mine.
x BOISE, Idaho, June 20. (Special.) An
array of attorneys Is here to appear in
the Supreme Court tomorrow in the fa
mous Day divorce case. Eugene Day, the
defendant, is one of the owners of the
famous Hercules mine at Burke. The case
is filled with sensationalism, and a fea
ture is a cross-complaint by the husband.
The appeal to be heard now is from
the decision of Judge Morgan, in the Dis
trict Court for Shoshone County, refusing
to grant a change of venue. The motion
was made by the plaintiff.
In the suit, Mrs. Day, who was a school
teacher at Mullan, Idaho, about 21 years
of age, charges cruel, inhuman and in
decent treatment, beginning at Portland
on the bridal tour to Hawaii. They were
married at Mullan, January 24. 1905. The
plaintiff asks for JlO.OwO suit money and
division of the property, valued at 1600,000.
BODY ACTED AS A CUSHION
Butte Miner Saved AVhen Partner
Was Crushed to Death.
BUTTE, Mont., June 20. Dennis Har
rington had his life crushed out in a fall
of ground in the Mountain Con mine
this afternoon and M. J. McMahon was
seriously injured. McMahon's escape from,
death is perhaps one of the most novel
in the history of the Butte camp.
When the cave-in occurred McMahon
was directly in the path of the fall bf
ground and was hurled violently to the
ground in front of his partner, Harring
ton, who, an instant later, was thrown
upon the prostrate form of McMahon.
Harrington's body acted as a cushion for
McMahon, protecting him from further
falls of ground and saving his life.
McMahon says he was conscious
throughout and was aware when Har
rington died, as the latter's hands
clutched him convulsively until the end.

OF
Proposed for Management of
the State Institutions.
OFFICERS ON FLAT SALARY
Heretofore the Governor, Secretary
of State and Superintendent of
Public Instruction Received
Extra Pay for the Work.
SALEM. June 20. (Special.) Whether a
State Board of Control shall' be created
to take charge of the management of the
state institutions. Is a question that will
be before the Legislature next Winter.
It Is proposed to create a board of three
members, who shall have no other duties
than to have general charge of the Asy
lum, Penitentiary, Reform School, Mute
School, Blind School, Soldiers' Home, the
fisheries, the portage road and such other
state enterprises as may be established
from time to time.
At present these Institutions are gov
erned by boards composed of state offi
cials, who look after this work in addi
tion to the duties directly connected with
their offices. The Asylum and Reform
School, the fisheries and the portage road
are under the control of a board com
posed of the Governor, Secretary of State
and State Treasurer; the Penitentiary and
Soldiers' Home are under the control of
the Governor. The Mute School and Bund
School are under the control of the Gov
ernor. Secretary of State and Superin
tendent of Public Instruction.
Heretofore these officers have served on
the boards mentioned, and have received
extra compensation, in addition to their
constitutional salaries. The last Legisla
ture put all the officers on flat salaries,
much larger than their constitutional sal
aries, and provided that this compensa
tion s'.iall be all they shall receive. Un
der existing laws, therefore, the officers
would perform their duties on the several
boards without pay in excess of the flat
salaries fixed by the act of 1905.
' The plan proposed is to create a board,
to be elected by the Legislature or by tue
people, to relieve the state officrs from
this work. The expense of a State Board
of Control is generally estimated as fol
lows: Salaries, 3000 each; 9000; clerk.
12400; stenographer, 1200; total, 12,600 a
year.
This would make an additional expense
of 12,600 a year, unless reductions coma
be made elsewhere to counterbalance it.
It is not generally believed, though per
haps it is possible, that the Legislature,
after relieving the state officers of the
extra duties that have been placed upon
them, would repeal the flat-salary law
and place the Governor, Secretary of State
and State TerasuVer back on their con
stitutional salaries. The increased sal
aries having been provided because of du
ties in addition to those provided by the
constitution, the salaries might be re
duced when the additional duties are fatt
en away. The salaries provided by the
constitution are: Governor, 1500; Secre
tary of State, 1500; Treasurer. eooo. The
salaries provided by the act of 1905 are:
Governor, 5000; Secretary of State, 45ou;
Treasurer, 4500.
Whether the creation of a State Board
of Control would take the state institu
tions out of politics, or have the effect of
increasing the influence which politics has
in their management. Is a question that
has been discussed to some extent.
Whether the members of the Board of
Control should be elected by the Legisla
ture or Dy tne people, at least two of i
three would be members of one party,
and, therefore, the opportunity for the
manipulation of the institutions for po
litical purposes would be Just as great as
at present.
It is argued on the one hand that a
State Board of Control, chosen for the
particular purpose of governing the state
institutions, would give more attention
to them would feel a direct responsibility
and therefore would let polities have a
less influence. On the other hand, it is
urged that such a board, being created for
the particular purpose of employing the
superintendents and minor officials of the
institutions, would be chosen with the ap
pointments in view. That is, that men
who aspire to places on the Board of Con
trol would promise all the appointments in
order to secure their own elections and
that politics would have Just as much in
fluence as now.
One of the chief advantages at a Board
of Control would be that one board would
do all the purchasing of supplies for all
the institutions, and, by maintenance of
one general commissary, a saving could
be effected. Supplies, bought in larger
quantities, could be purchased at lower
prices, and, with one careful system of
accounting, there would be less oppor
tunity for grafting. On the other hand,
it is said that such a general commissary
could be maintained under the supervis
ion of present boards, and all supplies ad
vertised for at once, and the advantages
mentioned secured without the creation of
a new board.
A State Board" of Control, having noth
ing to do but look after the state institu
tions, would probably give more direct at
tention to the institutions than do the
present officers, though there has been
no complaint on that score during the
present administration. The state offi
cers visit all the state institutions at least
once a month. Under some of the ad
ministrations years ago, before the sys
tem of advertising for Dids had been es
tablished, and when the management of
the institutions was left more exclusively
to the superintendent, there were many
stories of mismanagement and graft that
have not been heard in recent years.
BOXES REMAIN IN SALOONS
Tacoma License Raised to $800 Over
the Mayor's Veto.
TACOMA, Wash., June 20. (Special.)
By a vote of 10 to 5 the City Council to
night sustained the Mayor's veto of four
sections of the new saloon ordinance.
As it stands now, the license is raised
from 600 to S00 and no license is to be
granted to any person where gambling
is carried on in the same building as
the saloon. The sections vetoed and sus
tained prohibited the employment of fe
males' in a building wherein there is a sa
loon; prohibiting closed boxes in restau
rants or winerooms; not allowing more
than one license to any brewing company,
and calling for a bond of 1000 to be
forfeited if the license should be revoked.

Are built on scientific principles. They are so constructed that there is
a constant circulation of dry air of uniform low temperature in the food
chamber, which continues in one direction, passing out after coming in
contact with the foods, and condensing and purifying itself on the ice,
thus preventing contamination. To many people, all Refrigerators look
alike; but if they were to examine the construction of a "Glacier," they
would readily find in it a wonderful and most scientific construction and
arrangement. The walls are made up of eight sections, a combination
which demonstrates their qualities a's ice-savers and perfect food-preservers.
The Glacier line is complete, in that it offers everything in size and
style to select from.
For comfort, these designs are unexcelled, and the nature of

Cutting Umatilla Alfalfa Crop.
PENDLETON, Or., June 20. (Special.)
The alfalfa harvest has commenced in
Umatilla County, and the hum of the
mower fills the valleys on every hand.
Owing to the recent floods, the present
crop of alfalfa will be very light in many
places, while it will be a waste in many
other fields, where the water and mud
covered the fields and left the growing
hay a mass of dirt-covered debris.
The next crop will be good, however,
perhaps better than the average, on ac
count of the silt deposited on , the fields
enriching them, as well as on, account of
the abundant moisture now in the ground.

Woman's Trials.
The bitter trail in a woman's life Is to
be childless. Who can tell how hard the
struggle mar have been ere she learnt to
resign herself to her lonely lot? The ab
sence of this link to bind marital life
together, the absence of this one pledge
to mutual affection is a common disap
pointment. Many nnfortonate couples)
become estranged thereby. Even if they
do not drift apart, one may read the whole
extent of their disappointment in the eyes
of soch a childless couple when they rest
on the children of others. To them the
largest family does not seem too nu mernu.
In many cases of barrenness or child
lessness the obstacle to child-bearing is
easily removed by the core of weakness on
the part of the woman. Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription has been the means of
restoring health and fruitfulness to many
a barren woman, to the great joy of the
household. In other, bnt rare cases, the
obstruction to the bearing of children has
been foond to be of a surgical character,
but easily removable by pate less operative)
treatment at the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute. Buffalo, N. Y., over which
Dr. Pierce of the "Favorite Prescription
fame presides. In all eases where chil
dren are desired and are absent, an effort
should be made to find out the real cause,
since it is generally so easily removed by
proper treatment.
In all the various weaknesses, displace
ments, prolapsus, inflammation and de
bilitating, catarrhal drains and in all
eases of nervousness and debility. Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the most
efficient remedy that can possibly be used.
It baa to Mb credit hundreds of ibousnnda
of cores more in fact than any other
remedy put op for sale through druggists,
especially lor woman's use. The ingredi
ents of which the "Favorite Prescription
is composed have received the most
positive endorsement from the leading
medical writers on Materia MaUea of aa
the several schools of practice. Ail the
ingratieatB are printed in plain BngUsh
on the wrapper enclosing the bottle, so
that any woman making use of this
famous medicine may know exactly what
she is taking. Dr. Pierce takes his pa
tients into his fall confidence, which he
eao afford to do as the formula after
which the "Favorite Prescription is
made will bear toe most caceful exam

THAT'S the lime to take a Cas
caret. When your tongue Is coated,
When you have Heartburn,
Belching, Acid Risings in throat,
When Pimples begin to peep out,
When your Stomach Gnaws or Burns,
That's the time to check coming Con
stipation, Indigestion and Dyspepsia.
One single Candy Cascaret will do it if
taken at the right minute, just when you
first feel the need of it.
A "Cascaret to time Is worth nine"
later on.

Cascarets don't Purge, nor Weaken,
nor waste Digestive Juices In flooding
out the Bowels, like Salts, Castor Oil,
"Physics."
But, they act like Exercise on the
Muscles that shrink and expand the in
testines, thus-pushing the Food on Natur
ally to its Finish.

That's Constipation!
Castor Oil, or "Physic" will help t
slide out one load of trouble, but they
can't help the Cause.
In fact, they weaken the Bowel
Muscles more than ever by slackening
them, and by doing work for them
which they should do for themselves.
When your Arm-Muscles grow flabby
they need Exercise, to strengthen them
not a sling to support them.

by they need Exercise to strengthen
them not "Physic" to pamper them.
Then carry the little ten-cent "Vest
Pocket" box constantly with you, and
take a Cascaret whenever you sflspect
you need It.
One Cascaret at a time will promptly
cleanse a foul Breath, or Coated Tongue,
thus proving clearly its ready, steady, .
sure, but mild and effective action.
Have the little 10c Emergency box of
Cascarets constantly near youl
All Druggists sell them over ten mil

Be very careful to get the genuine, made
only by the Sterling Remedy Company
and never sold In bulk. Every tablet
