Mr. Gooding Is one of a committee of three, the other committeemen be ing P. O. Johnson, ot Blockfoot, and W. A. Phllbrlck, of American Falls, who was appointed by the Wool Grow ers' association of Idaho, to visit Washington, D. C, and confer with the authorities with the end In view of having the preesnt measure so amend ed that the actual running time of stock trains shall lie 36 hours Instead of 2 it hours as ut present, and that the train schedule per hour shall be 18 miles. i The sieed limit was objocted to by the railroads, they desiring that the maximum should be 16 miles per hour. This amendment has been virtually agreed to by the transportation com panics, and thus the bill Is sutlsfac tory to them. The whole Idaho congressional del egation Is In favor of the measure.' said Mr. Gooding. "Idaho stockmen figure that they lost 1250,000 annual ly on account of the operation of the old measure and other states have sus tained corresponding losses. We also Interviewed Senators Sutherland und Smoot. The former Bald that he had received only one letter protesting against the old measure, but whatever he could do to assist the bill he wou do. Senator Smoot was not Informed as to the proposed measure. We did not have any extended conversation with him," said Mr. Gooding, "but ho promised his support to the bill,' Defendant Wins Suit.

Even more complicated and technl cnl than the legal entanglements of their white brothers are the legal questions among the Umatilla In dians. The last Important heirship tangle which hns come to light on the reser vation is In the settlement of the es tates of Pe-toy-no nnd In-non-tsop- we-non-ml, two deceased Indian women, who each left 80 acres of land to their lawful heirs. Ip-non-tsop-we-non-ml was the mother of Umaplne, sub-chief of the I'mntlllas and left but two direct ;.cirs, Umaplne and his sister, Ip-non- we-non-ml to share her lund. Pc-toy no left one son, Charles Bennett as her direct heir, but the wife of a de ceased brother of Umaplne who died In Montana 25 years ago, and who was never legally married to this woman and who left no children by her, Is now making clnlm to a share In the estate of her first husband's mother. A full statement of the complicated tangle is being sent to Washington by .Major Edwards, agent of the Umn tlllas, and Umnplne, who Is the chief lielr involved, hns also sent a pro test nnd a statement of his right to the department. Since the woman was never legally married to Umaplnos brother and had no children by him. and was im mediately after his death married to nother Indian, with whom Bhe has since lived the Indian's attorneys do not believe she can secure any share In the estate. The Increasing value of the reserva tion land and the large Incomes re ceived from rents tempts many In dians having no shadow of a claim make an effort upon some legal chnlcallty or dim thread of rela- onship to seek to come Into posses sion of a tract of reservation land. Such claims multiply the work of the department and complicate more nd more deeply the legal status of the Indiana. The quarter section of land Included In these two estates Is ow valued nt about $6000 and rents for from M to (6 per acre.

She broke nut all over her body with a humor, nnd we used everything recom mended, but without results. I called in three doctors, they all claimed they could help her, but. she continued to grow worse. Her body was a mass of sores, nnd her little "face was being eaten nwny; her ears looked ns if they would drop off. Neighbors addsed mo to get Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and before 1 had used half of the cake of Soap nnd box of Ointment the sores had all healed, and my little one's ace and body wern as clear ns a new-born babe's.
