The committee appointed to see about
extending tbe raala on Alvord and Madi
son streets reported that they made an
-.-examination of said premises and recom
raended that a fire hydrant only, be
..placed m eaid streets. On motion it
fwss ordered that a hydrant .be placed on
r- streets aa above named.
i. W. French appeared before the
- commission and requested that they
"make ini extension of tbe water main on
Secoai! -street to the east end of' the
Mysxco Warebouso. The commission de-
" tided not to take immediate action re
garding the matter further than inatruct
ing the secretary to communicate with
the Oregon Iron and Steel Works of
Portland.aa to the coat per pound of four
and six-inch cast iron pipe and the
number of pounds per foot, so the com
mission would know the exact cost of
expense of putting in tbe extention as
Above named.
In the matter ofDallea City water rent
tor fire protection, Dalles City is paying
' the 6Utn of thirty-two dollars per month
for the same, and as tbe commission has
made valuable improvements in the
water system and has placed several new
hydrants in desirable locations it ap
peared to the commission that the sum
faeretotore paid was not sufficient for tha
s protection received. It was therefore
ordered that the amount be increased to
the sum of sixty dollars per month.

Foster Elected With One Vote to Spare,
Which Terminates . the Cong and
Hard-Fought Contest.
Oi.ympia, Feb. 1. On the twenty-
fourth joint ballot today, Addison G.
Foster was elected United States senator
to succeed John L. Wilson. 'Eighty-one
votes were cast for Foster, although only
57 were necessary to elect.
Only one member, Representative
Somerindyke, of Seattle, failed to vote
for the caucus nominee on the first
ballot today. Somerindyke voted for
Mayor Thomas J. Humes, of Seattle.
Stockwell, a Wilson man, is in tbe
hospital, but bia proxy said he would, if
present, support the caucus nominee.
The election of Addison G. Foster to
day had been settled in caucus last night
when rather a stormey time was ex
perienced, 25 of Ankeny's supporters
walked out before tbe ballot could be
taken, as they were intormed Foster had
signatures from sufficient republican
members to secure bia election. Sen
ator Wilson had requested bis supporters
to cast their strength to Foster and thus
bring the fight to a finish.
When these 25 men walked out it left
just58, or only one majority. When the
roll was called 50 republicans voted for
Foster, and the remaining eight abided
by the caucus majority. After this the
Foster vote was made unanimous, and
today Ankeny's disappointed followers
submitted gracefully to the inevitable
and voted with their prty.
It has been a clean fight, and Mr.
Foster is a popular man, with but few
enemies. After tne caucus there was
much rejoicing about Foster's head
quarters, and John L. Wilson addressed
bis friends in his rooms, congratulating
the republican party on having elected
as able a man as Addison G. Foster.

NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA
To Gain Flesh, to Sleep Well, to Know
What Appetite and Good Digestion
Means.
MAKE A TEST OF STUART'S DYS
PEPSIA TABLETS.
No trouble ia more common or more
misunderstood than neryoua dyspepsia.
People having it think their nervea are
to blame and are surprised that they
PROF. HENRY W. BECKER, A. M.
are not cured by nerve medicines. Tbe
real aeat of tbe mischief is lost eight of.
The stomach is the organ to be looked
after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whatever in the stomach, nor
perhaps any of the eymptoma of etom
ach weakness. Nervoua dyapepeia shows
iteelf not in the stomach so much aa in
nearlv every organ. In some cases the
heart palpitates and is irregular; in oth
era the kidneya are effected ; in others
the bowela are constipated, with head
aches ; still others are troubled with loss
of flesh and appetite with accumulations
of as, sour risings and heartburn.
It is safe to say that Stuart's Dyspep-
sfe Tablets will cure any stomach weak
ness or disease except cancer of the
stomach. They cure sour stomach, gas,
losa of flesh and appetite, sleeplessness,
palpitation, heartburn, constipation, and
headache.
