lajfalnst whom the combination has been
made had openly threatened to send

'when It came up a a special order
tomorrow afternoon. Booth is very ans
lou to rush the bill throush. and when
Ijie learned of the plan to try out his

'the best interests of the bill to let it

Disgraced Jurist After Talk
With Members of Bench
Declines to Serve.
MAKES PUBLIC STATEMENT
Sacrifices Himself and Family In
Order That Court Shall Be Free
From Least Taint of Suspicion.
Will Take Vp Practice.
OLYMPIA, Wash.. Jan. 12.-(Speclal.)
After conferring with friends until a
late hour last night, and again all morn
ing. Judge Mllo A. Root this afternoon
decided that he would not qualify for
the term as Supreme Justice, to which
he was elected last November. Before
deciding upon this course Judge Root con
sulted his former colleagues on the bench
and numerous members of the State Leg
islature. Judge Root prepared and filed with Gov
ernor Mead a statement of his decision
not to qualify. Governor Mead Immedi
ately thereafter announced the appoint
ment of M. F. Gose, of Pomeroy, to All
the vacancy. The appointment was at
the request of 'Governor-elect S. G. Cos
grove. Howard Cosgrove today stated that the
report that Mr. Gose was his father's,
law partner Is Incorrect. The two have
been firm friends, but not associated in
practice.
Talks With Tears in Eyes.
Judge Root, after signing hie state
ment to the Governor, discussed his plans
for the future, with tears in his eyes.
"I have had four offers of law TarU
nenshlps In Seattle," he said, "but have
made no arrangements pending the out
come of the matter Just decided. I had
a very good and 'paying practice before1
I went on the bench, and hope to be able
to get back Into that work in Seattle. I
must do something immediately. My wife
Is 111. I have six children who are not
capable of contributing to their support
and I have not a penny In the world."
Root's statement to Governor Mead
follows:
"Some two months ago I was informed
of rumors Implying corruption in office
on my part. I Imediately demanded an
investigation, which was made by a com
mittee of five attorneys appointed by the
president of the State Bar Association.
As I resigned at the commencement of
the investigation, the committee was re
lieved of any embarrassment which my
presence on the bench might have oc
casioned. Their report has been recently
made and has appeared in the public
press.
"Committee reports they found no facts
indicating corruption or dishonesty on
my part; but they censure me in regard
to certain conduct and in particular my
actions In connection with the case of
Harrison vs. the Great Northern Railroad
Company, wherein It was asserted Judge
Gordon, on rehearing, had dictated the
opinion modifying original opinion In the
case. As I stated to the committee, I
now repeat that my actions In that mat
ter were solely to see that the court
should decide correctly the point of law.
This was done and the opinion and case
rendered which I believed then, and be
lieve now. is sound law. and In this I
believe I am supported by other Judges
and most lawyers In the state.
Proof- or Ills Innocence.
"I did not act from any evil motive, for
the purpose of giving one litigant undue
advantage over another. The case was
decided against the railroad company
both times. In the first instance, by a
vote of four to three. I being one of
the four and the one who wrote the
opinion against the company, the other
three believing the company was entitled'
to recover, and fllln a dissenting opinion,
holding to that effect. It will thus be
seen my vote could have decided the
case the other way In favor of the rail
way company.
"As to criticisms concerning having
received transportation, I may merely
mention that this was received before
laws now prohibiting it were enacted, and
when the use of such transportation by
public officials generally was customary
ani regarded as perfectly legitimate.
"Touching these matters, and all others
criticised by the report, I desire to say
emphatically that any mistake I made
was of the head and not of the heart. As
a member of the court I always worked
hard and endeavored to be fair and Just
to all parties, and- I never rendered or
assisted to render any decision I did not
honestly believe to be law. Notwith
standing my mistakes I feel I could, and
If I qualified I would give an absolutely
honest and creditable service to the peo
ple of the state.
Resigns as Public Duty.
"However, in the light of severe criti
cisms contained in the report of Vie
committee I feel that for me to qualify
would be to embarrass the court and
litigants and attorneys before the court
and to create In the minds of the people
not knowing me a suspicion, entirely un
just, but which would nevertheless1 be
highly undesirable as regards the court
and the administration of Justice In the
state. To decline to qualify involves a
sacrifice to me and to my family, a
seriousness which cannot be adequately
expressed in words. With a full appre
ciation of the situation as It affects the
Judicial Institutions of our state, 1 feel
that I should do all in my power to re
move every suspicion or suggestion re
flecting upon the Supreme Court, what
ever may be the effect upon myself. I
must rest content with the knowledge
that I have consciously done no wrong
and that those who know me best re
tain their confidence In me.
"I therefore feel constrained to. and

Any chronic ulcer shows an unhealthy and impure condition of the
blood. It is a diseased condition of the flesh at that particular spot, caused
and kept inflamed and irritated by a continual discharge into it, of un
healthy matter from the circulation. No treatment can have any curative ef
fect except a medicine which will renovate the blood and entirely remove the
cause. Salves, washes, lotions, etc, are sometimes helpful in reducing; in
fiammation, cleansing the ulcer, or perhaps lessening the discharge, but such
applications do not reach the blood where the disease germs are located
and can never effect a cure. S. S S. goes down into the circulation,
drives out all impurities and morbid matter, and by nourishing the flesh
with rich pure blood causes the place to heal naturally and permanently.
S. S. S. does not make a surface cure, but by beginning at the bottom, and
rebuilding broken-down tissue, and supplying healthful, healing qualities to
the blood, causes the place to fill in with new, firm flesh, while it steadily
but surely effects a permanent cure. The ulcer can not exist when the
blood is pure, and S. S. S. will thoroughly purify the blood. Book on Sores

A BAD BACK IS A BAD HANDICAP
f ua can afford to be idle, and
to those who work, a sound, strong
back Is a necessity. A bad back pre
vents rest or sleep, and aches all day
with a dull, tired throb.
Don't think because sharp twinges
strike you- when you lift, or twist
about, or reach, that your work Is too
hard for you. Bad backs are com
mon In every occupation. Those aches
and twinges are only Nature's warn
ing that the kidneys need help.
It is easy to tell if the kidneys are
sick, and are not thoroughly doing
their work of filtering the blood.
Backache la an early warning. Head
ache, dlzzv spells, puffy swellings under
the eyes or in the ankles and legs,
nervousness. Irritability. rheumatic
pain and tired feelings also tell of kid
ney Ills.
Examine the urine. If It is extremely
pale and light, the kidneys are not
getting out all of that uric poison. If
It is dark colored and thick, passages
too frequent, or too scanty, if there is
any sediment deposited when It stands,
if passages burn or pain, thaf proof
enough that the kidneys need attention.
Doan's Kidney Pills have given
strong, sound backs to thousands. This
remedy cures backache and urinary
troubles by removing the cause, by cur

aching in the region of my kidneys,
and although I was constantly using
remedies I continued to suffer. The
irregular action of the kidney secre
