RULING IN THE

After listening to the opinions of

Truwt company should not be required
to submit , all their correspondence : in
relation to the possession of ' the Mar
quam building for examination" before"
iher -court. ' When the case 'was poat
poned from Saturday . until .' today, . ex
JitdKes E..B. Watson and A. H. Tanner,
... attorneys, for Mr,-Marquam,-, asserted
) that all of , the . correspondence relating
to the sale of the property should be
. prfBeiited to and read before the court.
Wallace McCamant, attorney for the
Title Uuarantea & Trus company, J.
"I'horburn Ross and John K. Kollock,
members: of the company, took a , con
trary view. They contended that the
Correspondence between, the Title Guar

New York "was confidential and that if
; Jt were read . a great deal of - matter
which did not relate'to the building but

another, depending on the varying sea

and water, seldom on land that can.be
grated the entire season. Then most
valuable feed" from January to May or
June. Is usually on the desert, where
there it no water and tha ground ia bare
at all other seasons. No other stock
could harvest this valuable crop of the
desert, yet these sheep must aeek feed
elsewhere at other times. They alone
can go from place to place, guided by
their herder and owner, and harvest
these natural fields of forage, but the
proposed lease law would confine them
to one locality, and that too small to
support a fourth of a band. It meant a
sacrifice absolutely of the Industry In
Aritona. and the same in New Mexico,
Utah. Idaho, and; I believe, in most of
the Northwest.
"I might add that, in my judgment.
any bill or measure for the regulation of
grating upon the public domain should
place the tame under the management pf
the -department of agriculture, which lr
organised with bureaus and depart
ments of scientists. Independent of poll
tic, more permanent in their respective
positions, study these question from
more scientific standpoints, and are mora
likely to formulate- correct and reason'
able regulations, more stable and un
changing in their nature and less liable
to favoritism and political lnfluenoes."

the final payment it reverted, back to the

" Weakness ,
.- That disorder eommonly known
aa "weakness" has for years and
generatlona baffled the efforts of
physicians, yet to this very day
a majority of doctors, specialist
not excepted, are attempting to
overcome it by methOda that have
been in constant use and -have
constantly failed for half a cen
tury. They dose the system, with
powerful stimulants - and tonics
calculated to restore nervous
force or strength, that la not and
never has been lacking, with the
-result that the functions are tem
porarily exc.lt d, to the- positive'
-detriment of the patient .... Weak
ness we call it such for conveni
ence Just pow It only a symptom
resulting from 1 a. chronically
swollen and inflamed prostate
gland and is, curable by means of
combined local treatment , only.
Either early dissipation or some
improperly . treated contracted
disease is responsible for-the in
flammation in most instances,
though -accidental injury,- strain;
etc, may produce the aame result
We have Permanently cured thou,
sands Of cases, which demon
strates the absolute accuracy of
our understanding and treatment
of this disorder. We are equally
certain that no treatment - other
than this can completely and per
manently restore strength and
vigor. ... ,. ... .
w Varicocele ; , ,
Varicocele interferes with local
circulation! and the process of.
waqte and repair throughout the
organs Involved. When neglected
it brings total or -partial loss of
power, and may result in wasting
away the organs themselves. We
cure varicocele in the- shortest
time possible. Our method is ab
solutely painless, no surgical op
eration is required, and there need
' be no detention from business.
Contracted ' Disorders
Absolute safety demands the
most thorough treatment iri all
contracted diseases. If men but
realised the danger attending such
ailments, they would not think of
entrusting their cases in unskilled
hands. Unless every particle of In
flammation, is removed, a chronic
stage follows Just as surely -as
night follows day. We cure the
disease thoroughly and will not
dismiss a patient till every possi
bility of ;a relapse Ja past
