OMiiplalnnnt Against Snokinan-Ro-vh'W
I lilt Claim for Dam-
BROS.
The Spokane Spokesman-Review
has won In a suit for damages for li
bel Instituted against 1J by M. H.
Wliltehoue, n Spokane pioneer, says
a Tacoma item.
The suit was based on an article
appearing In the newspaper July 14,
1904. relating that Mr. Whltehouse
liad obtained a license to wed Clara
S. Reed, but that something had
arisen to prevent the marriage. The
newspaper made a mystery out of
the situation and gave the article con
siderable prominence.
The action was dismissed In the
lower court and the supreme court
affirms this Judgment. One cause of
action whs dismissed on 'the ground
that the article contained nothing libelous.

elected he will support the people's
choice for United States senator. Mr.

ment of the people, by the people

representative who Is unwilling to
obey the will of the people who elect
him is not a representative, but a
mlsrepresentatlve."

PRAISES FIGHT ON BUGS.
SMkane Man Says W. S. C. Has Done
Good Work In g ICxtcmiinatln
Pests.
The most successful work In de
stroying the two great dangers to the
fruit industry, the San Jose scale and
the codling moth, in the United States
has been done by the Washington
State college." This statement, which
contains a high compliment to the
efficiency of the department of hor
ticulture of the Washington State
college, was made by C. I Smith of
Spokane in a talk to the business men
of the United States, were not only
fruit trees but shade and ornamental
trees have been killed by the scale,
nd the apple crop ruined entirely by
the codling moth. He assured the
fruitgrowers that Washington Is for
tunate in this respect. .
Mr. Smith declared that the fruit
crop of the Inland empire, where the
Instructions Issued by the college In
pamphlet or bulletin form have been
followed, Is more free from worms
than any section of the United States
and the result has been that Wash
ington apples are getting a fine repu
tation In the markets of the world.
BIG HUSH TO RAWHIDE,
Miners Flocking' Into New Gold FleM!
In Vane Romberg.
Reno, New, Mar.. 4. Rawhide, the
new bonunza mining: camp, has today
a population of 8000 and Is growing.
Over 60 automobiles are now work
ing night and day-taking prospectors
Into the camp and' freight teams are
streaming along the- roads, from Fal
lon and Schurz to Rawhide, loaded
with lumber and' building materials
and provisions.
The eastern contingent la now be
ginning to arrive from New York and
Philadelphia, having' Journeyed here
to represent mining magnates in the
new field. Denver and Colorado ope
rators have been In the field for a
week or more and some have leases
working already.
By actual count there are 150 sub
stantial wooden buildings and 2700
tents in use for dwellings and bus!
ness purposes. Fully 200 more wood
en structures are In course of con
struction.
The excitement over Rawhide has
grown to such magnitude during the
past week that the movements to the
new camp in the northern end of the
Esmeralda county now transcends
any rush in the history of gold min
ing In the west, not even excepting
the spectacular stampede to the Klon
dike.
Goldfleld, Tonopah, Bullfrog and
all other southern Nevada mining
camps are being almost depopulated
by frenzied gold-seekers who are leav
ing for Rawhide.
What makes the camp a certainty
Is that the signs of permanency are
manifest.
On the west side of the camp sul
phide rock has been found. This is
on the Blakesley lease. The rich ore
on Balloon Hill Is in rhyollte A
streak of tellurlde of silver has been
found in the Tiger and Royal.
The airship fraction on Balloon
Hill between the Murray and Kearns
lease, has Btruck what is believed to
be the contact vein. Every mining
man will know what that means.
The placers, of which much has
been said, are situated five miles
north of the main part of Rawhide,
and are proving very rich.
A mill will be ready In three weeks.
Work on Its construction Is going on
now. When It Is completed the cams
Is to go on a payroll basis.

Wcll-Known People Devote Spore
Time to Upbuilding UoaltJk
There Is no excuse today for any
person, unless tainted with, an incur
able disease, remaining sickly, with.
the -great advance in medical dlscov.
eries and the growing popularity of
physical culture.
In the diseases of digestion and nu
trition, for example, an acknowledged
specific treatment has been found in
Ml-o-na. It is relied upon as a cer
tainty in relieving the worst troubles
of digestion and assimilation, and
making a complete cure.
People suffering with headaches,
palpitation, sleeplessness, bad taste In
the mouth, coated tongue, distress af
ter eating, specks before' the eyes,
nervousness and general delfblty, and
any other of the many distressing re
sults of a weakened stomach, should
profit by the discovery of Ml-o-na
stomach tablets.
Tallman and company have seen
so many cures by Mt-o-na of stom
ach and general rundown state of
health that they are firm believers in
the power of this remedy to cure
practically every case and they show
this faith by giving a guarantee with
every 50-cent box of Mi-o-na to re
fund the money unless It does all that
Is claimed for It. They take the whole
risk, and Mt-c-na will not cost you a
penny unless it cures.
