These are the last of the unallotted or unsold lands of the reservation, President Roosevelt affired his signature td the bill a week ago yesterday and It is now law.

Twelve years ago this iand wai ap praised by. a Government board and values" fixed at from -41.25 to , 125 an acre, according to the various grades between scab sheep range and good ag ricultural aoll. . - The fact I that the Moody law allow squatters a 90 days' prior right, to purchase the landhey have squatted on at the appraised value has caused quite a rush of tese indir Tlduals for the advanced choice ,- por tions. Land values have advanced considerably over the appraisement ot 12 yearfc ago, and these men will make considerable money by selling out Im asedlately. ' There has been no trou ble over squatters' fights yet, and prob ably, be none such as was experienced at the. Fort Hall opening. , . The valuable agricultural lands have practically all bee located by squat ters, and much of the better class of range land. which shows farming pos sibilities has also been squatted on. The great bulk of the- 90.000 acres, however, will be placed on sale, but la useful only for sheep or steer pasture. In fact the squatters on this kind of land are said to fee mostly.

" The scab! land Is worth perhaps, twice as mucR as the appraised rate, eid constitutes an exrellent speculation for a squatter. When all the Umatillas. Walla Wajlas and Cayuses were ' allotted holdings from the larger tract measured out for them by the United States Government a considerable tract, was left. Much of this' was sold shortly after.' These 90,000 acres always remained unallot ted. , Thfy are now to be taken from the man who has been cultivating them without having a clear title Or baying to pay taxes, and (rota the stockman, who has been using them for .range, and sold. A big rush is anticipated when the day of auction comes. ; n;r FACE SHOT AWAY HORRIBLE ACCIDENT TO RALPH HENRY. WHILH HUNTING " . X -'. NEAR FALLS CITX; INDEPENDENCE. July 9.

What amazing labor for so small an organ,' working as it does wiUlout rest or pa us from the first breath of infancy to the last sigh of old age. When disease attacks the heart it attacks the very citadel of . life, and every organ of the body, seems to tremble with apprehension. The strcnaousnexs of modern life, which overtaxes the heart is every day increasing the list of thosq whose ; sadden end is ascribed to " heart failure. It is hardly possible to pick up a newspaper without seeing mention of the death of some well known man attributed to that cause. And for every one prominent man who falls s victim to heart f allure, how many are there, unknown beyond their home village, who perish from the same cause Dr. PierceV Golden Medical Discovery is a medicine specially designed to cure diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition, and to purify and enrich the blood. But the ingredients which enter into the "Dis covery, include one of the ; best heart tomes known in medicine. Thus, while the diseased stomach is being cured by the action of Golden Medical Disco very," it strengthens the heart and enables the pumping of an adequate blood sup ply to the stomach and kidneys, thus improving the action of these organs. "lathe fall of 1S97, I was tat en with smothering spells, palpitation of the heart and a distressed feeling . .in my stomach," writes Mr. II. W. Kinney, of Knight, Doddridge Co., W. Va. "I consulted a doctor and he said I had organic heart trouble. He gave me some medicine but tt did me nd good. I then tried different kinds of patent medicines but they only helped me a little, I cnlt UVinjr medicine in the winter and got so bad I could , not walk any distance, was 1km1 of breath, and my legs would get so weak I could not stand.

I waited awhile after X took the five bottles and then got some more and continued the medicine. I took in all sixteen bottles, and was cured.

The Dody with its organi make up the physical man, and when we'say the man'is half star'ed,; wo are practically saying-, that the -organs that are vital to the physical man are half starved also.
