Freewater, Jan. 30. Miles Overholt
editor of the Freewater Times, left
the city suddenly yesterday on ac
count of the reports that were circu
lated regarding the action of the fac
ulty and board of directors in bring
ing a libel suit against him for an
article published In the Times, Friday,
concerning the suspension of a few
students of the Columbia college, at
Milton. Some of the students were
suspended, It Is known, and there are
varied reports as to the exact cause.
The faculty and board, however, al
lege the charges of Editor Overholt
as being false and libelous, and had
made all arrangements for a big suit.
Mr. Overholt left on a few mo
ments' notice, however, and said be
fore leaving: "I am afraid to face the
charges, but I do not want to go
against a few ef my friends from
Milton, who gave me the points in
the case for publication, to suffer with
me, even though they can prove their
Mcrtlons." No one has the slightest
Idea as to the exact whereabouts of
the editor. The paper will come out
as heretofore, however.

years ago.
"The psoriasis first made its appear
ance in red spot, generally forming a
circle, leaving in the center a spot about
the size of a silver dollar of sound flesh.
In a short time the affected circle
would form a heavy dry scale of a white
silvery appearance and would gradually
drop off. To remove the entire scales
by bathing or using oil to soften them
the flh would be perfectly raw, and a
light discharge of bloody substance
would ooze out. That scaly crust would
form again in twenty-four hours. It
was worse on my arms and limbs, al
though it was in spots all over my
body, also on my sculp. If I let the
scales remain too long without remov

would crack and bleed. I suffered

FIVE HUNDRED
WORD
HISTORY
DF
IDAHO
NAVAL ARMAMENT QUESTION.
Will
Armor Scout IloalH and Equip
With I'lvo-IiK'll Gllll.
Washington, D. C, Jan. 30. The
naval strategists who figured out the
batteries needed for ships of war now
say that the new scouts for which de
signs are being made should be pro
vided with armament, which will give
them some value In an engagement.
It was Intended that the scouts
should be lightly armed, It being the
function of the ship to have sufficient
speed to elude an unfriendly pursuer,
It was considered, therefore, that 3-
inch guns, 12 on each ship, would suf
fice to repel torpedo boats which
alone would be expected to overtake
and attack the scouts. Now, it seems,
the scouts are to bo equipped with 5-
Inch guns, which, according to some
officers, would take the scout out of
Its class, although placing it In no
other very distinctive and definite
class.
The 3-Inch guns will have a place
on board, although less In number
than originally Intended, and the sav
ing in weight will be employed by
having two guns, each of the 6-inch
rapid fire type. The change does not
meet with the approval of all experts
of the service, but It Is quite probable
that It will be adhered to, nevertheless.
For condensed Information the fol- I
lowing little gem from the Idaho Re
publican of Blackfoot Is about as
comprehensive as anything going:
Idaho was first settled at Fort
Hall, Bannock county. In 1834. It
was organized as a territory March
3, 1863 by H. Wallace. It was admit
ted as a state July 3, 1890. Its esti
mated population today Is 250,000 and
Its assessed valuation Is i u.i'U'J.uuu.
The state flower is the uyrlnga. nnd
the seal has for its center the rising
sun.
"The area of the state Is approxim
ately 846,000 square miles, or 61,144.-
000 acres, distributed as follows: 20.
000.000 acres timber land, 20,000.000
acres pasture land, 11,000,000 agri
cultural land and 'jie remainder mln
eral land.
"Its surplus wheat product during
the present year is 6,000,000 bushels.
Its wool clip for the year is 25,000,
non Timinrts. Its mineral output la
$25,000,000; 400,000 head of cattle,
300.000 head of horses, 3.000,000
head of sheep are found within her
borders.
"Idaho takes the lead In the pro
duction of lead, producing more than
half the lead in the United States and
aggregating about 21,000,000 pounds
In 1906."
While the chronology of the fore
going. Is not essential, in the Interest
of accuracy it seems Just as wen to
state that settlements in northern
Idaho are generally conceded to have
antedated any others, Hudson bay at
taches and Jesuit priests having lo,
cated on Coeur d'Aleno lake prior to
anv known civilized occupancy. Fort
Hall was established at tne time siai
ed and became a landmark on the
earliest trail f rr m the east to the
west and In the same year the mis.
slonarv Dost at Lapwal was erected
by Spalding where Henry H. Spald
ing, later of Almota, was born on
November 24, 1839.
Industrially also It may be said
that Idaho Is the greatest power state
In the union, that it has the finest
and most valuable bodies of mer
chantable timber now standing, that
one of the great rivers of the world
gives it a natural economic outlet to
the sea, that It rivals Italy and France
in the production of the grape and
similar semi-tropical fruits, that Its
tobacco grown experimentally holds
the premium In competition with the
world and that Its cereal and forage
crops grown on natural soil are
greater than those grown on high-
priced Irrigated lands.
With this generous base to start
from truly there Is the opportunity
here for the building up of one of
the proudest commonwealths In the
union and one whose career as It un
folds and takes on mature shape
should Interest the faculties of every
citizen In doing his part that the su
perstructure may be sound and true.
All the elements that maice lor nu
man welfare seem to be here, lacking
only modern trade routes without
which a due and competitive part
cannot be taken In the world's prog
ress and achievement. These, how
ever, are now coming fast and with
their quickening touch vast distances
will disappear and the mountains and
canvnns be brought to a common
level.
The outlook Is to inspire every heart
and strengthen every arm to play a
purposeful part in the making of this
great state.

TALLMAX & CO. TEST.
Sold llyomrf for Years and Know It
Will Cure Catarrh.
Tallman & Co. have given Hyomel
most thorough and remarkable
test. For a long time they have of
fered to rcfurid the money to any pur
chaser of Hyomel, If It failed to bene
fit.
The remedy has made so many
cures among their customers that
they have urged Its use in the most
chronic cases of catarrh.
Breathed for a few minutes four
times a day, through the Inhaler that
comes with every outfit. It soothes
the Irritated mucous membrane of
the nose throat and lungs, kills the
catarrhal germs, and restores com
plete health. Its healing, antiseptic
fragrance penetrates to the. most re
mote air passages, as no medicine
taken into the stomach can possibly
do. Immediate relief almost always
follows the use of Hyomel, and great
benefit Is seen after a few days'
treatment.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
only II, and consists of an Inhaler
that can be carried In the pocket or
purse, and will last a lifetime, a med
icine dropper, and a bottle of Hyomel
If this is not sufficient for a complete
cure, additional bottle of Hyomel can
be obtained for 50 cents.
Compare this small expense with
the fees chatged by specialists, and
remember, too, If Hyomel does not
cure, Tallman & Co. will return your
money.
If you sre going east, writs for in
formation and get a pretty book thai
will tell you all about It
