that river and harbor Improvements for
Western Oregon will be adopted as rap
idly as reported favorably by engineers.
"I intend to bring up again the mat
ter of Americanization of the Panama
canal." said Mr. Hawley "American
enterprise, engineers and money built
the canal on American soil, and there
is every reason in the world why it
should be operated in the Interest of
American producers and 'shippers. -,
'I will oppose immigration of Asiatic
races to the Pacific coast, and believe
an amendment to existing - immigration
laws should be made that will cause the
selection, of persona to be admitted Into
United States to be made by American
consuls or through other American offi
cials abroad, before they are allowed
to embark for the United States."

OLSON SAYS
SHEWOULDGASP
FOR HER BREATH
Four Years' Indigestion Re
lieved by Tanlac Gains
25 Pounds. .
The past winter Is the first one I
have gone through in five years without
a serious illness and I give Tanlae the
credit for keeping me well." said Mrs.
TMIena Olson, residing at' 2435 Warsaw
street. Seattle, a few days ago, in a
statement in which one of the benefits
mentioned is a gain In : weight of 25
pounds. -
',Torthe past four years." she con
tinued. "I liad suffered terribly from
Indigestion and disordered kidneys. I
would bloat so after eating that I would
have to loosen my clothes and the gas
would press on my heart until it would
thump and beat so hard you could al
most hear it. I dreaded to go upstairs
aa X was afraid I would never get to
the top, and these spells would come
pn me even when I was not exerting
Tnyself In the least. ' Sometimes while
sitting in a chair this awful palpitation
would com i on and I would simply
have to gasp for breath. I was forced to
live, on -the lightest kinds of food no
meats or vegetables and yet I suffered.
Many a time, after a very light meal.
I have been seized with terrible grip
ing pains that would almost draw me
double, and I, suffered almost constant
ly with headache.
."My .kidneys and bladder also
bothered me a great deal and my back
couldn't have hurt me much worse if
someone had beat me with a stick. I
also had rheumatic pains all through my
body and there was a dull, aching pain
In my arms and legs all the time. My
complexion was pale and sallow and I
had lost weight until I didn't look like
myself. Naturally my nerves got into
a. frightfully shattered condition and I
hardly knew what a night's sleep waa.
The greater part of the time I could not
So one bit of my- housework and was
often right down In bed for a week or
two at a time. Then when the Influenza
epidemic came on I was taken 'down
with this trouble and was left In worse
condition than ever. '
"Then I began taking Tanlac, as it
was .so highly recommended, and .It has
built me up and put my whole system
In good condition. My stomach Is now
In such a good condition that I can eat
all- kinds of meats and vegetables or
Just anything else, without suffering a
particle from shortness of breath or
any other disagreeable feelings after
wards, and my appetite Is Just fine. I
can go up and down stairs now as easily
aa I ever could and all my headaches
have left me- entirely, and my kidneys
never bother m at ail iurv
strong and steady and I sleep every
night like a child. My complexion is
clear and healthy looking and I simply
feel like a new person, I have galneo
twenty-five pounds in weight and all
ray friei.ds say I haven't looked 'so well
In years. will always praise Tan
lac for giving me back my health." ;
