By declining to'answer questions "on the advice of counsel," ironically, "they have not only prejudiced their case in the eyes of the people, but have given us excellent evidence In support of our contention.

The Yakima Daily Republic ans wers as follows a correspondent who wants to know how a certain street In that place, and certain tributary of the Yakima river are spelled: Reader, you may spell the name any way you please. It does not mat ter how much you spell It, some one else will spell It differently. So there Is no use In your losing sleep over such a trifling matter. It is JusCabout as easy to take the crook out of a man's back as to attempt lo regulute the spelling of the name of the river and the street referred to. It Is spelled four different ways by the people of this valley. The Re public has been for years attempting to train the people to spell It a cer tain way, but they seem lo take no heed. Here are the four ways of spelling It: Naches. Natches. Natchez. a Nocheese. The Republic has adopted the first spelling because that Is the way the geographers of the government have sought to pass upon It at one of their solemn sittings. Natches may be correct; Natchez might be correct, but Nocheese should be the correct way. Many people confound the name with that of "Natchez," the Indian name of a city In Mississippi; but there is no connection between the two. Nocheese Is the Indian name given to the stream In years gone by. How, when and by whom It was thus christened nobody knows. The word is said to me.in "swift waten" The first syllable of the word Is snld to mean "swift," second syllable "water." If this Information will enlighten the reader he Is welcome to It, but he should not tell his neighbor, for It would do him no good; he would go on spelling "Nackes" In the same old way. oil, and and At Ashley, N.

Mayor Dunne, of Chicago, and his supporters, express entire confidence that the street car lines of that city will be completely municipalized by the end of his present term. The greatest archaeological discov ery ever made In America Is snld to be the finding of the ruins of an an cient city In Guatemala by n French scientist named Peregnu. The ruins cover thousands of acres. Fritz Reuter, one of the best known hotel and restaurant managers ot Washington, D. C committed suicide by shooting himself through the head.

His manner of handling wit nesses is plan Missouri openwork. A strong, muscular forehead, generous ears and steel-gray eyes, of a curious boring faculty In looking witnesses through, are companion features to an aggressive nose, - substantially linking the eyes, and a bony, deter mined Jaw, which will some day fully dominate the face. Prior to assum ing his present office the attorney general of Missouri was, perhaps, 20 pounds heavier. But boodle-fighting and a bleaching campaign against ugly blemishes on the record of his ..state have left him spare of frame .as of face. Attorney General Hadley began by expressing surprise at the sensation created by the present hearing. "To a certain extent," he modest ly protested, "it is regrettable in that It places us (the other one of the us is Assistant Attorney General Lake) In a false position before the public. We are not courting notoriety nor do we bring any message to the east from the west other than that has to do with simple enforcement of the law. Missouri, like New York and juany other states, has had the wool pulled over its ees since the memory of man runneth not to the contrary. Its residents have been Rip Van Win kles, chloroformed by various power ful interests, Industrial, financial and political. So completely and adroitly has the drug been administered and no long has the state slept that It Is Just beginning to recognize itself In 1 he mirror which is being held up by Oovernor Folk and his administrative associates. New York Retiring Is a Sequence. "Whv. this New York hearing Is ter of himself and of his environment, But the law Is the law, and when any man In this country can safely set himself above it, can convey the im pression that special statutes must be formed for him and his kind, this will no longer be a government for, by and of the people. That is one big principle involved In this case the American people themselves are on trial and are themselves the sole Judge and Jury. The hard native sense of the people has been aroused. They have taken a tonic and have found that It agreed with them. They have found that a law enforced is the best investment a taxpayer can muke. The decent majority has routed the lawless minority and can do It again. There was no boodllng In the last legislature. Boodlers who have es caped Imprisonment have felt the fire of public ostracism. In short, the reign of law is now unquestioned."

I'ndaunted and unafraid because of the ominous cloud which looms up on his political horizon, foretelling the Impending desperate struggle to de feat him at all hazards, State Senator Wulter M. Pierce of Pendleton, aspires to succeed himself In the up per house of the legislature, says the Portland Telegram. He has Just re turned from a three-weeks' jaunt In California to announce his indidacy, on the democratic ticket, for Joint senator from Morrow, Umatilla and Union counties. Senator Pierce has served three consecutive terms In the senate, and says he has spent the pleasantest portion of his life looking after inter ests of his constituency. "They have got It In for me. how ever." he said, "and there Is no ques tion that they are going to give me a fight to the finish.' The Lord knows that I dearly lov a brush with the enemy in a campaign, and It is partly for this reason that I am going In. I haven't the slightest Idea whom the republicans and others will put up against me, neither do I care, for I am egotistical enough to think that I can win out. If I should be defeated I will be sorry, because I enjoy being In the Oregon legislature and work ing hand In hand for Interests of the state with republicans and democrats alike."
