The patient in the case Is a con

He was first rubbed about the chest
by the medicine man, and much of
the sickness was thus taken out by

Dr. Henderson was asked to witness
the fact that he had it. The remain

and it wns once too many for the
more civilized members of the tribe,
who have learned to place more faith
in the skill of Dr. Henderson, the
agency physician, than In the magic
of the medicine man.
It was because of this complaint
from the Indians themselves that
Knee Shirt has been ostracised. How
ever, he was not without followers up
on the reservation, for many of the
uneducated Indians still have faith in
the ways of their fathers and look
with suspicion upon a white doctor.
But recently the work of Knee Shirt.
was brdught before Major Edwards
in such a way that it was decided to
make him give up his practice. How
ever, this was not done without giv
ing the medicine man a hearing, and
In order to demonstrate his system
the aged healer was Induced to give
an exhibition of his work. This was
blow, and one which alone would
have ended the efficacy of the cures.
However, It was subsequently follow

In compliance with these Instructions
Knee Shirt, the medicine man, and
his three young helpers, have sinM
folded their tents and silently stolen
away. As a result here is now no
medicine man upon the Umatilla res
ervation, and Dr. T. M. Henderson is
left in undisputed control of the s!fr

say that he is the man, you cannot
be reasonably expected to return i
verdict of guilty.
This man is entitled, gentlemen of
the Jury, under every law by which
he Is now upon trial beforo you, to tell
us what has been established beyond
a reasonable doubt, that somebody has
done down heer and they have found
transaction that we have had perhaps
not an opportunity to come forward
and explain, Is that the reason why
you should find him guilty. Examine
this record. Look Into it carefully. I
Invite your attention to It and still it
is one of the things produced against
him In this trial.
'They claim that It was checked up
on the right hand side when he went
to correct his books, and I conceive,
gentlemen of the Jury, why gome sup
pose said that It was checked. He
might never deduct it had It not been
entered. Isn't that true? And those
check marks they may have been
placed there by somebody else. I
don't know who placed them there,
but, gentlemen of the Jury, do you
propose to solve everything In favor
of guilt? Is that what they are ask
ing at your hands? They want you to
believe that anything that has gone
wrong down there should be charged
to Mr. Davis. If there was any neg
lect It was Davis. If there w'ns any
money taken out of the office, It was
Davis.
"I don't want you to acquit him
because he has a good record In the
past. I don't want you, on the other
hand, to find him guilty becf.use some
one want! you to presume that he is.
You have a duty to perform, the
highest that devolves upon a citizen
of this republic. A duty to try a citi
zen for a violation of the laws of his
country. It is one of the highest du
ties that pertains to citizenship. The
Jury is the place where the lives of
the citizens and the laws of the coun
try are determined. On you rests
the life or liberty of a man who may
be brought before you for trial.
"This man's fate is in your hands.
You have watched him during the
trial, and I ask you to compare his
conduct with that of some others who
have appeared here.
"Gentlemen of the Jury, I have
nothing further to say than to ask you
to give this the fair and Impartial
consideration that I believe you will
give it.
"If you believe beyond a reasonable
doubt that he is guilty I do not ask
you to discharge him. But until you
are convinced I do not ask you not to
convict him.

"Gentlemen of the Jury, no outsldo

the Jury, I say unto you that every
member of society is entitled at the

as much entitled to that, gentlemen of

In the great hereafter when you will
be called before the great Almighty

done, why then, gentlemen of the Jury,
find him guilty; but, gentlemen of the
Jury, if you cannot feel that you can
not conscientiously look your fellow
man in the face, then it should not bo
returned. If you have no reasonable
doubt, that Is a doubt such as you

STOP, WOMAN I
AND CONSIDER
THE ALL-
IMPORTANT FACT
That in address
ing Mrs. Pink
ham yon are con
fidingyour private
ills to a woman
a woman whose experi
ence with women's dis
eases covers a great
many years.
Mrs. Pinkham is the
daughter-in-law of
Lydia E. Pinkham,
and for many years
underherdirection,
and since her de
cease, she has been
advising sick wo
men free of charge.
Mini women
suffer in silence and drift along from
bad to worse, knowing full well that
they ought to have immediate assist
ance, but a natural modesty impels
them to shrink from exposing then
selves to the questions and probable
examinations of even their family
physician. It is unnecessary. Without
money or price yon can consult a wo
man whose knowledge irom actual ex
perience is great.
Mrs. Pinkham Standing Invitation.
Women suffering from any form of
female weakness are invited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. Prakham, at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are received,
onened, read and answered by women
only. A woman can freely talk of her
private illness to a woman; thus has
been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women
of America which has never been
broken. Out of the vast volume of
experience which she has to draw from
it is more than possible that she has
Earned the very knowledge that will
elp your case. She asks nothing in
return except your good-will, and her
advice has relieved thousands. Surely
any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish
if she does not take advantage of this
renerous offer oi assistance.
If you are ill, don't hesitate to get a
bottle oi Lyaia m. rinxnanrs vegctaDie
Compound at once, and write Mrs. Pink
ham, Lynn. Mass., for special advice.
When a medicine has been successful
in restoring to health so many women,
yon cannot well say, without trying It,
' I do not believe It will help me."
