Equal Mileage Rates.

a curious controversy is just now In progress
before the British Railway Commission, which
should be watched with considerable interest by
Mr.. Reagan and his friends, as it involves the
question of equal mileage rates. In England, as
M she United States, towns are treated differ
emily by railway companies according to no clear
principle, and rates are imposed without much
regard as to distance. The pending war has
beGz inaugurated by the town of Hull, which is
situated considerably nearer the great Midland
centers of industry Birmingham, Leeds, Shelf
field etc-than Newcastle. and yet for years the
railway companies have charged practically the
same rates. Huh now demands that the rates
DO lowered for that town or raised for its com
psEitOr Newcastle. Thus. after nearly half
century of government control of railway cor
porAtions England has not been able to settle
ahis perplexing question of equal rates for like

Cassidy was asked to-day in regard to the report
that there was a movement on foot to have him
take action in the matter of the proposed aban

consummation of the scheme and that he had

Special Announcements.

We take pleasure in announcing that
we have made arrangements with the
publishers of the Chicago Weekly News
which enable us to club that paper with
the Turner County Herald at the very
low price of 1926 per year for the
two. This is beyond question the first
time that a metropolitan weekly has
been brought within the reach Of SUBJ
scribers at so small an additional price.
For this comparative small amount our
readers can place themselves in com
mand of the whole situation. All events
of interest, local. national and foreign,
will be presented completely and
promptly by one or the other of these
publications. The single feature of
full and trustworthy Chicago market
quotations will be worth, to many OF
our readers, more than the additional
amonnt involved in the clubbing ar
rangement. TO those who are not IA
miliar with the character of the Chi
c;igo News, we would say it is the best
representative of independent Journal
ism in the west.
We trust that all our readers will
avail themselves of this unusual oppor-
tunity Of securing a Chicago weekly at
so tritling a cost.

Tho LeGIslature.

The Dakota legislature has settled
down to business. The bill to remove
the capital from Bismarck to Pierre
has been the most exciting theme yet
brought forward; but owing to the
aspirations of various souhetrn Dakota
towns, it is extremely doubtful whether
a sufficient number of votes can be Sc
cured to accomplish the desired result.
Among the bills of a general nature in
troduced are the following:
Establishing a standard of weights
and measures.
Appropriating $4,000 for the New
Orleans exposition.
Relating to county treasurers, pre-
scribing duties and regulating fees.
Regulating the weighing, inspecting
and grading of grain.
Enlarging the jurisdiction of probate
judges.
To give lien on grain on account of
thrashing.
To abolish the Office of attorney gen
eral.
Extending the time for paying the
taxes of 1884.
Amending the exemption law-re-
ducing exemptions to $3.50.
Providing for the organization of new
counties-by Mr.. Gamble.

A Certain Cure for Group.

The following treatment has been
used extensively during the past ten
years without a single failure, which
ought to be sufficient to commend it to
universal favor and adoption. Give
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and OBJ
serve the directions with each bottle.
1t acts quickly and can always be de-
pended upon. Remember that hoarse-
ness is the first symptom of true Group,
and if Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
freeley given from the time the child
first becomes hoarse it will prevent the
Group and all danger and anxiety may
be avoided. Sold by E. Braueh.
