WHERE LAXITY LEADS.
! The trial of t Horace Dunbar, proprl
tor of the Rainier-Grand hotel in Seat
tie, on the chars? of operating an elec
trically controlled roulette wheal in hla
. hotel serve to call attention to the in-
evltsble results of allowing the law to
be disregarded in dome instance and In
others enforcing it
While the regular gambling houses in
Seattle were paying regular fines Into
the city treasury, Dunbar was not It
was an open secret that he was "run
ning a game in his hotel, which was
,the leading one In the city, and thai
traveling men and others would be easi
ly inveigled Into playing where they
might fairly infer from the surround
ings that there would be a square deal.
The strong allegation that Dunbar was
fleecing his victims by "fixed" faro
boxes and electric roulette wheels is a
mere detail. The fact that he was per
mitted, with the undoubted knowledge
of the police, to keep his games going
when the public gambling houses were
nosed, and mat be did not even go
through the formality of paying his One
to the city, shows the state of morals
that Is engendered of laxity in the en
forcement of the laws. , ;, t
Gambling has now been made a fel
tony in the state of Washington and
public opinion at present Is such that
those persisting in gambling will re
ceive a felon's deserts. How long such
a condition of affairs will last depends
upon the people themselves. Too many
citizens, who are too lazy and careless
tu bestir thmesetves In the suppression
of the abuses they deplore, throw the
Ma me upon the police for permitting
gambling and other vices to flourish
unchecked. It Is the people and not
the police that should be blamed.
It Is of laxity that corruption in born.
I . . . , '
ON THE RIGHT TRACK.
The fact that 'Astoria. Is at last to
have a park will be welcome news to
those that are interested In the city m
which they live. Aside from the actual
tneflts of such a place of recreation,
4 tabllshment is a sign of civic
pride and acts as an incentive to fur
ther manifestations of the same nature.
The stranger Visiting a town" where
there Is a carefully kept park is more
favorably impressed by that one fact
, Ui an he would be by all the talk of all

Stiroiiie Sores
Eating Dicers, tS&$.
Nothing is a source of so much trouble as an old sore or ulcer, particu
larly when located opon the lower extremities where the circulation is weak
and sluggish. A gangrenous eating ulcer upon the leg is a frightful sight,
and as the poison barrows deeper and deeper into the tissue beneath and the
ore continues to spread, one can almost see the flesh melting away and feel
the strength going out with the sickening discharges. Creat running sore
and deep offensive ulcers often develop from a pimple boil, swollen giant
bruise or pimple, and are a threatening danger always, because, while a
such sores are not cancerous, a great many are, and this should make yo
suspicious of all chronic, slow-healing ulcers and tsores, particularly if cat
cer runs in your family. Face sores are common and cause the greate
annoyance because uey are so per
sistent and unsightly and detract so
much from one's personal appearance.
Middle aged and old people and
those whose blood is contaminated and
tainted with the germs and poison of
malaria or some previous sickness, arc
'i She chief sufferers from chronic sores
' and ulcers. While the blood remains ifl
an unhealthy, polluted condition heal-
ing is impossible, and the sore will
continue to grow and spread in spite of
washes and sa1ves or any superficial or
; surface treatment," for the sore is but
the outward sign of some constitu
tional disorder, a' bad condition, of
the blood and system which local
i remedies cannot cure. A blood purifier

thing to cleanse the blood, restore its lost properties, quicken the cireula.

A park is to city much what a tost
is to a woman. It Is not a necessary
part of the dress, but it adds Immense

The following paragraph from th
New York Tribune sounds as If serious
rioting had broken out In that city:
The blockade of Friday evening,
with its attendant panic and seml-rtot,
happily passed off without any serious
vet-ulls. One policeman was knocked
down and trampled upon, and the same
fate befell a good many other persons.
Hundreds, probably, had their clothes
turn and bundles! or other property lost
or stolen In-the wild rush, and not a
few suffered bruises, sprains and other
physical Injuries. It is really wonder
ful that many were not maimed or
killed outright1
And after all It's only people fighting
for a seat in the trolley cars.
,
Of all the mistakes that have been
made in misdirecting parcels, none has
ever been more extraordinary than the
recent Instance reported from Tacoma.
The receiver in a laundry there wa
unwrapping a bundle the other day,
and discovered to his horror that it
contained the body of a dead baby.
There was an address on the outside of
the package, and when the police called
thereat they found the family about to
bury a bundle of dirty linen. The child
bad been . still-born, and . the parents
had arranged to bury it when the par
cels got mixed up.
The Push club excursion, which la to
be given on July 4, will doubtless be
patronized extensively for its own sake.
It has also a claim upon the people by
virtue of the excellent object to which
the proceeds will be devoted, the clear
ing off of the deficit In the club's fund
for the payment of the cost of the
Smith's point spur track.

school and changed it to Mayme. Then
She shortened it to May, and finally
wrote it Mae. The poor girl got mar

Mrs. Close, wife of John Close, night

house, foot of Eighth street, residing
at 130 Commercial street, says:
' About a year ago we moved, here
from Portland and as I had a grent
deal to look after t overdid myself, and
the result was I brought on kidney
trouble. My back began to ache and
as time rolled by it kept getting worse
instead cf better. It Anally grew so
bad that I could scarcely stoop or
straighten after stooping. When I
did any work requiring bending I could
hardly get up and I had headaches,
ditty spells and at times everything
before me looked blurred. I was
Just about to start to the store for a
plaster to put on my back when I rend
about Donn's Kidney Pills and as they
were so highly recommended for kidney
trouble I made up my mind to try them
and procured a box at C. Roger's drug
store on Commercial street. They
went right to the root of the disease
and helped me from the start and be
fore I had finished the box I was cured
Everything is changed with me now
and I have no symptoms of kidney
trouble whatever."
