NEVADA SEEKS CALIFORNIA I
TERRITORIA
Nevada hu taken step* to se cur? the
annexation to '.hit statu Of the Are
California counties of Alpine, Inyo,
ljusea. Modoc and Mooo. which lie
east of '.he Sierra Nevada mountains
The Nevada legislature seta forth tiie
following reasons why the counties
named should he a pari of the state of
Nevada:
"Because of the isolation of the
counties named from the busineat
center and seat of government of the
state of California: the laclc of recog
nition and representation both In state
and national government, ant that
taws made to apply to the western
slop? of the Sierra Nevadas do not
grant relief or apply to, bat actually
retard, the industries and interests of
these sections: that the people of these
counties are b uod to Nevada Oj the
lies of consanguinity, geograpb cally.
socially sod politically, and that their
interests are identical aod one with
those of the people of Nevada: that
with their ceasion to the state of
Nevada they would not only be grant
ed political representation, but their
interests would be benefitted, causing
them the prosperity and happiness
to which they are justly entitled."
Major Strong's paper at Oreenwater,
Cat., the n?w copper center, favor* the
propoae>i transfer, claiming, in addition
to the reason advanced by the Nevada
legislature, that the legislation of the
Silver state is more favorable to mining
development than is that of California.
The live counties have a population
of about 20,000, aod would be a very
Important addition to Nevada.

LET RESIDENTS SPEAK
The 'solid'' people of Alaska, those
who are building homes here who are
supporting our schools. churche?,
lodges, clube, societies and other insti
tutions. are those who should make
their presence felt! when Secretary
Taft and the president's soo-io-law
come north next summer. These high
officials must be impressed with the
fact that ihrer are peoDle living in
Alaska as well as there are
thoae who are endeavoring
to sell its resource* to eastern capital*
l?ta; that there are people who are
bui'diog homes and laving the founda
tion of a commonwealth here ss well us
there are those who seek to wrest lta
treasuries from the earth for the up
building of otner sections, ird that
these ^ne and aia'e builders art de
serving of the opportunity to do tbeir
work io their own way and wi:h a free
hand ait Americans elsewhere are doing
their work.
So Col Jam?* Hamilton Lewis is to
conduct the defense in Chicago's sen
sational murder case The availabllty
of Col. Lewis for counsel-in-chief for
Thaw was discussed very seriously
before D. >1. Delmas was chosen by the
representatives of the Pittsburg
millionaire. It is said that thedecision
between the two ^reat criminal law
yer* was very close
It did not take Roosevelt very long
to transfer the battlefield upon whiob
be sod H.irriman are combatting from
the JSOJ campaign to the living present.
The welcome the people of Alaska:
will extend to Secretary Tilt and the
Longworths will be hearty and sincere.

Mrs. Elizabeth Maxwell, of 41a W.
Fourth St., Olympia, Was1!., says: "I
have no idea how much suffering 1
I would have avoided had I known he
value of Doan's Kidney Pills sooi er
For three years I have suffered, doc ir
oa and treated for a dropsical condi .on
of the body without ever knowing he
true source of the trouble to be in lie
kidneys, until, about two m nths ;c
when 1 was induced to try Doan's! d
I nay Pills. I had swelling of the ,'e(
and limbs: my hands would puff up, ret
tense s.nd I could hardly close t! m.
The other symptoms were lost sigh of
in the more noticeable ones. After o
curing Doan's Kidney Fills, I f< nd
prompt relief from the start. Tbe sv 11
iog bloating were reduced until tiiey
entirely disappeared and a toning up
and strengthening of my whole sy^ jtn
was felt. The other day I climbed > b

the heart. It was not 6 wecKs ago tlia'
I tried the same feat and nearly brokt
down in tbe attempt."
