. (Sped! DLnteh to tbe Journal.)
Slou Fall. S. V., Nov. I
result of tha flection In South Dakota
today this State Will 1 very likely lose
the lucrative patronage of tbe matri
monial misfits, who for some years
have -f locked here in large' numbers to
obtain oulck divorces. The voters to
day are passing upon a law submitted
to them under the initiative and ref
erendum, providing that -divorces shall
not be granted to any person married
outnide the state who has not resided
In South .Dakota for one year. Hereto-.
rore only six raonuu resiuence una
been required. ' ' .-
Of the 6(2 divorces granted In South
Dakota last year, 364 were to non
residents.' every one of whom came here
for the-purpose of a divorce.'- Of the
total number. 134 were lsued In BIoux
Falls, the chief divorce center. The
enactment of the porposed law Is ex
pected to reduce the number of di
vorces In South Dakota to less than
100 a year.
Another change that will be made
by the new measure, if approved. Is to
require hearing of -divorce cases at
regular terms of court. Heretofore the
Judges have been very accommodating,
listening in chambers almost any time
to the complaint of those desiring a
severance of the matrimonial ties.
- If the measure is approved by the
voters it will come Into effect on De
cember 3. on which date tbe state can
vassing board will meet to officially
announce the results of .the election.

manded. The entire racing contingent left 1n
their special cars for Plmlico af 8:30
o'clock this morning. .They have made
extensive arrangements to receive the

ture practically depends on the result

JOSEPHINE'S TAX SHOWING
Property Values Have Almost
: Doubled In Three Years.
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.) '
TtJrants Pass. Or.. Nov. 2. For the
first time in its history; and In ac
cordance with the present tax law, Josephine-
county property will this year
be assessed, on its actual value Instead
6f One half or two thirds its valua
tion as heretofore. While this will not
materially affect the amount of taxa
tion, it will make a much better show
ing for the country. Assessor Will
Kallln believes it will actually reduce
the levy, as It will more equitably dis
tribute tne burden or taxation, and
create greater property value upon
which to base county expenditure. The
work of getting the county out of the
very bad condition into which It had
fallen, that of low valuation and high
tax levy, was begun three years ago.
In that period the property values of
the county, as shown by the tax books,
have almost doubled. - For the Dast
year alone there is an Increase of BO
er cent. L,ast year the valuation given
or the countv was about SB. 000.000.
This year Is will be $8,200,000.

BLOOD-MAKING :
' TONIC TREATMENT
A Cure for Anaemic Conditions
That Is Showing Remark
able Proofs -of Cures in
Stubborn Cases.
When the body becomes run down,
either as a result of overwork, worry or
a severe illness, an examination of the
blood would show It to be weak and
watery. This condition Is called anae
mic, which Is the medical term for
"bloodless." The common symptoms
are paleness of the Hps, gums and
cheeks, shortness of breath and palpi
tation of the heart after the slightest
exertion, dull eyes and loss of appetite.
Anaemia Itself Is a dangerous disease
and it may gradually pass into con
sumption. It must be cured by treating
Its cause, which Is the poor condition of
the blood. The vital fluid must be made
strong and healthy, thereby enabling It
to carry the necessary nourishment to
every tissue of the body.'
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are the
greatest builder of rich, new blood and
they have been curing anaemia and oth-
er blood diseases for nearly a genera
tion, during which time they ))ave
come io oe reoognizea as an invajuaDie
household remedy. The statement of
Mrs. Claud Moore, who lives about six
miles from Defiance, shows how these
pills cure cases that stubbornly resist
ordinary methods of treatment. Mrs.
Moore's address is R. F. D. No. 8, De
fiance, Ohio. She says:
i "In 1904. when I was attending De
fiance college I would come home all
tired out and became very weak. I had
always had bright red cheeks but I
seemed to lose my color and became
deathly white. The physicians at Defi
ance said I was all run down and I took
his medicine but grew worse instead of
better. My friends thought I was going
Into consumption.
"My mother had heard of a case that
the doctors said was anaemia that Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills had cured and
finally she said to me: 'The doctor's
medicine don't seem to help you a par
ticle and I am going to get you some of
Dr. Williams'- Pink Pills.' She did and
in a Week's time I began to feel like
myself again. I took- In all seven bdxes.
They cured me and I feel fine now and
am in good health. I have recommend
ed the pills to several of our neighbors."
