Haskih, writing to the Oregon Dally Journal of the proposed new state of Lincoln, tells some in teresting things of the inland empire, his letter on that interesting subject being as follows: If the plans which are being devel oped in the, country around Spokane do not miscarry. Miss Columbia will add a new star to her crown and an other state to the union. Between the Bitter Root mountains on the east, the Salmon river mountains on the south, the Cascade mountains on the west and the Canadian boundary line on the north, there are abouUO; 000,000 acres of territory cut off as completely from the country beyond It as the Caucasus cut ofr southeast ern Europe from Asiatic Turkey and Persia, or as the Alps divide Switzer land and Italy. This territory belongs to three states, Idaho, Washington and Ore gon. The people of northern Idaho cannot get to their state capital with out traveling west through eastern Washington, thence south through eastern Oregon, and thence east to Boise. The people east of the Cascade mouitains in Washington are said to be as much out of sympathy with the either portion of their state as that part of .Virginia lying west of the Alleghanies was with the rest of the -Old Dominion at the outbreak of the civil war. And the people of eastern Oregon find little In common with their own people west of the moun tains. But these Isolated portions of the three states have evrything in com mon. Their interests are one, and now they want to get together and form a state out of their wonderful inland empire. There are nearly 13.000,000 acres of Idaho territory in the boundaries of the proposed new state. The pro ponents want the 45th degree of lati tude, which now constitutes the northern boundary of Wyoming, adopted as the northern boundary of Idaho and the southern poundary of EASY TO CURE- CATARRH. Just Jlrvuthe in HyonMl, the Dry Air That Kills the Gernia. Tou can do exactly what O. J. Ster ers did by using Hyomei. Read this: "After having suffered from chron ic catarrh' for years, for which I tried various remedies without success, I became almost discouraged. After reading about Hyomei, I decided to make one more effort to rid myself of the dread disease, and to my great delight I found the use of two bot tles of the lnhalent sufficient to pro. duce a complete cure. I now take pleasure in recommending this rem edy to all sufferers from catarrh." G. J. Sterers, Crown City, Ohio. We don't simply say Hyomei will cure catarrh, but we say that Tallroan & Co, the druggists, guarantees It to cure catarrh, or money back. He does more he guarantees it to cure asth ma, bronchitis, hay fever, coughs and colds. A complete Hyomei outfit, In cluding inhaler, costs only 11.00, and extra bottles, if you afterwards need one, will cost but SO cents. Hyomei Is . a pleasant dry air treatment. Tou just breathe it In, and as It passes over the inflamed membrane, It kills the -germs of catarrh, and allays all Inflammation. all $1.25 Fancy Silks at yd. 75c all Novelty Wool 1-2 Price. Trade STATE OF LINGOLN the proposed new state. The line will be extended to the 120th degree of longitude and south of the 45th degree of latitude to the state of Idaho. This territory amounts approximately to 17.000,000 acre.s Under the proposed boundaries of the several states they would have the following acreage: Washington, 26, 000,000 acres; Oregon,' 38.000,000 acres; Idaho, 37,000,000 acres. Un der the present status Washington has 42,000,000 acres; Oregon, 61,000, 000, and Idaho 53.000,000, Washing ton would have to contribute 16,000, 000 acres to the new state, Oregon 6, 000,000 to it and 17,000,000 to Idaho, and Idaho 15,000,000 to the new state A Great State. With 37,000,000 acres, the new state would be larger than New York, Connecticut and Rhode Island put to gether. Oregon would be called up on to give up about as much territory as there Is In the whole of the New England states, and Washington would have to transfer enough to make a state I.irger than the combined terri tory of Maryland, Massachusetts and Connecticut. In the property values Oregon would have to give $70,000,000, und Wash ington about a like umount, Idaho would get back more than she would give away. In population each one of the states would be called upon to contribute approximately one-fourth, though Idaho would get more than she contributed. It "is proposed to call the new state Lincoln. Other names have been sug gested, but this one seems to meet with the most general approval. Spo kane would probably be made the capital, although the people here sayj that the matter of a cnolce of a cap ital must not be considered now, that this must be a question left entirely to the future. Getting the new state established is the only matter for con sideration now. However, Spokane Is right in the heart of the district mapped out, as Boise will be in the heart of the reformed state of Idaho. There will be a hard time ahead for the peole who propose to estab lish this new state. Three legislatures must agree to the proposition, because the constitution of the United States expressly states that no territory shall be aken away . from a state for the settling up of a new state without the consent of its legislature. And after three legislatures have assented to the proposition it will still remain for congress to say whether the territory thus ceded by the legislatures shall be erected into a state or not. It will thus be seen that Herculean legi Islatlve labors are ahead of those who have the task in hand. There have been numerous changes of boundaries In the states In the past 50 years, but all of these altera tions were made while the present states were territories. At the time Oregon was made a territory there were only two territories In ths north western part of the United States west of the present state of Minne sota, namely, Oregon and Nebraska. Oregon then extended from the present California boundary line to the Canadian border. The people of the northern part of the territory found Salem, their state capital, cut off from them by reason of the great distance. An agitation was started which resulted In the creation of the territory of Washington. This new territory extended east to the Rocky mountains, and embraced portions of the present states of Idaho and Montana. As there were but few In Dress Goods at I Save Your Coupons habitants east of the Cnsr.iiln mm,.. tains, Olympia. then the center of population, was chosen for the capi tal. The discovery of gold In the terri tory now constituting the state of Idaho brought some 30,000 miners there. The territory of Idaho was then erected. It embraced nil of the present state of Idaho, nil of Mon tana, and the notrhern part of the present state of Wyoming. Lewiston was then the capital, but gold dis coveries in southern Idaho threw the balance of population into that sec tion, and Boise succeeded as the ter ritorial capital. Thus the conflict of Interests began early. After this was done the peo ple of the Idaho panhandle wanted to Join the state of Washington. They fought against overwhelming odds, but finally got a bill through con gress making It possible. But a Wa terloo was struck In the shape of a veto by President Cleveland, and so the proposition has never been made a law. Personal.

Folgr A Co., The Walla V.'z'.'z " Roams W'nlla Walla people In the following deserved manner for not patronizing the O. R. & H. excursion which was run to this city last Sunday for the Pendleton-Walla Wallu ball game: The excursion to Pendleton yester day to witness the opening of the new baseball league was not what It should have been and what It could have been made had the right kind of promotion "work been done, and at the right time, says the Union. With a thousand of our people over on the Sound to greet tho fleet there was some slight excuse for the meagerness of the baseball excursion but not enough to justify a failure to notify the diamond dust devotees of the Intent to make such a trip sev eral days In advance. Yerterday morning after the Union had been read there were a great many people who follow the fortunes of the home team who would have gone to the Umatilla town and did some responsible rooting if the hour had not been almost at hand. Railroads don't want and won't run unprofitable excursions. The matter is one ot business. There Is' a way in which to make such undertakings profitable and that Is to employ mod ern methods In appealing to the peo ple who will make such trips. The proper kind of publicity Is es sential. It should be prepared with as much care as any other kind of advertising and should be done In time If results are to be obtained. People cannot be lasoed over night and held for ft trip, the nature of which they can only guess at. The game nt Pendleton yesterday, while It was Inst to the Walla Walla team Is said to have been an excel lent one. Those who are In fandom can tell nil about It now. But the Individual conversational ist don't cut much of a figure on the public mind, nnd between thp rnll rond management nnd the baseball managers they should plan to get the public mind fixed upon their attrac tions or there will not be the mani festation of interest In their under takings which they are supposed to bo striving for.

Widening of the great Sunnysldo posite Orandvlow, and perhaps fur ther, is contemplated by tho United States reclamation service, says tho Yakima Herald. Although no offi cial announcement has been made of the plan of widening the great canal engineers In the employ of tho ser vice say that the change Is pertain to be .made, In order that the extension of the canal may be furnished with sufficient water. Already the government has ex pended about $2.10,000 on reconstruc tion work In the canal, nnd fully that much more will be necessary If the widening Is to be done. The changes made during the last year have been chiefly In the placing of H weirs or drops, In the canal, so that the flow would not be so rapid. If the canal Is widened, there will be opportunity to furnish water for a largo territory opposite the Kiona bend country, as well as for the Mabton siphon section, which Is to be placed under water. With the ex ception of the first two miles, there will be little difficult work in recon structing the canal. Man Zan Pile Remedy, price 50c If guaranteed. Put up ready for use.

P1NKHAM Nature and a woman's work com bined have produced the grandest remedy for woman's ilia that the world has ever known. In the good old-fashioned days of our grandmothers they relied upon the roots and herbs of the field to cure disease and mitigate suffering. The Indians on our Western Plains to-day can produce roots and herbs for every ailment, and cure diseases that baffle the most skilled Shysicians who have spent years in le study of drugs. From the roots and herb", of the field Lydia E. Pinkham more than thirty years ago gave to the women of the world a remedy for their pe culiar ills, more potent and effica cious than any combination of drugs, Lydki E. Pinkhain's Vegetable Compound is now recognized as the standard remedy for woman's ills. Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 615 N.C St, Louisiana, Mo., writes: fVitnnlof rrfttnrfttton to health ; means so much to me that for tbe sake of other suffering women I am willing i to make my troubles public. I For tweWe years I had been suffer ! in; with tbe worst forms of female ills. ! During that time I had eleven different i physicians without help. No tongue ; can tell what I suffered, and at times 1 : could hardly walk. About two yean j ajro I wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice. I followed it, and can truly say that ydia E. Pinkhain's Vegetable Com ! pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re- stored health and strength. It is ! worth mountains of gold to suffering I women." What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege ' table Compound did for Mrs. Muff, i it will do for other suflcring women, rionccrs Reunion nt Weston.
