WINGED COURSE OF JUSTICE.
Judge Wolverton of the Federal' Dis
trict court has Just rendered a decis
ion in favor of the government In the
land forfeiture suit against the Ore
gon & California railroad.
The suit was started only two or
three years ago, and great surprise. Is
felt by everybody that a decision was
handed down so soon.
After a few months from three to
thirty given to the corporation at
torneys to spar for wind, the second
round will start In the Federal Court
of Appeals. With the celerity of
court number one as an example, the
more sanguine attorneys for the gov
eminent will not be surprised If de
cision number two la handed down
soon after the close of the San Fran
cisco fair.
Then will come another short re
spite of a year or two for the hard
working, underpaid attorneys, and off
they merrily will go to the U. S. Su
preme court. But then a change will
come over the scene. The unseem
lngly haste of the Inferior courts will
be Justly rebuked by the dread sil
ence of the most august tribunal on
earth. Tears will pass. Administra
tions will change. Hills will be lev
eled and valleys become canyons. Just
as future historians will be about to
class the case with the celebrated one
of Jamdyce vs Jarndyce, and the long
lost Charlie Ross, the Impressive si
lence will be broken and a decision
handed down. It won't touch on the
merits of the case but will deal with
a demurrer on some technicality. The
demurrer may be sustained. Great
victory!
And the case probably will be be
gun all over again In the Federal dls
trict court of Portland, Oregon.

rado a couple of years ago.
Adams, a union laborer, was accus
ed of murdering a non-union workman.
Detectives produced the corpse of the
murdered man," and much corroba-
tive evidence. But the unions paid
for a great legal fight and finally
one of tne detectives Drone aown
and confessed the whole thing as
plant, Including the corpse, put
thru for the rewards promised by
employers' associations.
Just remember the immense sums
offered for the arrest of certain men
In this Los Angeles affair, and re
member, too, that not a cent of re
ward has been offered to solve the
mystery of the explosion.
Some 23 or 24 years ago a million
aire in Chicago named Snell was
found dead in the lower hall of his
home, presumably murdered by a
robber. Suspicion was directed a
gainst one Willie Tascott, and $20,
000 was offered for his capture. He
was never captured, and no one
could ever induce the Snell family
to offer one cent reward for the
capture of the murderer of the eld
er Snell, or to clear up the mystery
surrounding his death.
Great wealth can put thru most
any kind of rascality without being
found out.
"LAMB8" 8HYING AT WATER.
The three or four men who con
trol three-fourths of the railroad mil
eage of this country take turns in
lecturing the people and telling how
attempted regulation of public trans
portation is scaring Investors so that
no money is available for new con
struction, betterments, etc.
None of the railroad kings ever
spend a cent, of thelrl OWN money In
new construction, or a cent of the
vast millions they have filched from
the investing public by stock Job
bing schemes.
"Lambs" furnish the money for

HILL'8 BRIGHT SCHEME.
James J. Hill, empire builder and

bined with unscrupulousness, is ad

of a board of experienced railroad

to Quinnox as a soldier of the die.
Prince Robin, quite recovered from

colonel of the lu.vnl dragoons, buckled
on his Jeweled sword and. with boyish
zeal, demanded Ht a council of war
Colonel Qulnnox's reasons for not go

several In a breath. A dozen men vol
unteered to risk
their lives In the
attempt to find the
American in the

were chosen by

"He's safe, your highness," said
Quinnox.
"Well, you run In and tell Aunt Lo
ralne this minute that Mr. King sends
his love to her and begs her to rest
easy. See if it doesn't cheer her up a
bit."
At night two attempts were made
by Haddan and another subaltern to
leave the castle to reach Tullls, but
both sorties proved failures. A day
later-Maria nx sent two men under a
flag of truce to offer his infamous ulti

of the prince to America was refused,
for the inmates of the castle knew full
well the count would doom the lad to
lnstaut death If he should get him In
bis possession.
A single distant volley at sunset had
puzzled the men on guard at the castle,
They had no means of knowing that;
the committee of ten and its wretched
friends had been shot down like dogs
in the public square. Peter Brutus was

IN LATE WINTER
AND EARLY SPRING
We seldom feel JUST RIGHT
At such a time MSPARILU is the best and
safest Blood Purifier, the most successful
prescription for spring humors and such,
disorders of the blood as boils, pimples,
pustules, blotches, sores and cutaneous
eruptions. Kasparilla is admitted to be
the best remedy for that lack of energy
and the peculiar debility so prevalent
during the close of winter and the opening
of spring. For derangements of the di
gestive organs it is a natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and ali
mentary canal, gently but persistently
stimulating m healthy activity. Its
beneficial influence extends, however, to
every portion of the system, aiding in the
processes of digestion and assimilation of
food, promoting a wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, irregularities of the bowels, con
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi
ness, headache, backache and despond
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract' It la a
strengthening tonic of the highest value.
