The First Keen Twinge

AS the season advances. the pains and
aches by which rheumatism makes Itself
known, are experienced after every expos
ure. 1t is not claimed that Hoods Sarsapar-
lila is a specific for rheumatism-we doubt II
there is, or can be, such a remedy. But the
thousands benefited by Hoods Sarsaparilla,
warrant us in urging others who suffer from
rheumatism TO take IL before the first twinge.

Horse Rscovered.-Mr. Jol

Horse Rscoversd.-Mr. John
Lemen, living near Shepherdstown, on
Saturday plight loaned a colored man
who worked for him, fine young horse
to ride to MartiRsburg. The man hitch
ed the horse at the house of another col
ored man named Nash. While he was
in the house the horse was stolen by
some one who rode him rapidly through
the town. Policeman Poisal attempted
to arrest him for fast riding, not sus-
pecting theft, but was not successful.
The thief fearing pursuit abandoned the
horse near Reiley's ford on the Opequon,
where it was found by Mr.. James Dunn
on Sunday, and brought to town. The
horse was restored to Mr.. Lsmen.-Ndr-

will tear down the structure and build
new bridge in its place. This will de-
stroy the Alexandris canal as a water
way, and Georgetown will be the only
outlet of the Chesapeake & Ohio canal.
Boats bound for Alexandria will have
to 60 down the river in tow Of tugs. 1t
is said by the Cumberland shippers that
it costs only % cents more per boat to
60 from Georgetown to Alexandria

mules nine miles along the canal and
pay toll. When the tug has the boat in
tow the mules rest and the captain and
hands Of the boat may sleep, and on
reaching the unloading wharves are
fresh. This, they say, makes the river
route much better than the canal.

CURTIS PLAN.

The plan suggested by George Tick.
nor Curtis for the solution of the cues
ton of polygamy IN Utah, is being
quite extensively circulated and COM
mented upon by the press. Whatever
effect Mr.. Curtis plan for the solution
of the marital institutions Of the Nor
mon people would have, there is an
evident attempt on his part to suggest
something that would be just aud not
cruel. And he evidently draws the in
spiration Of his plans from the eircum.
stances which surrounded the Snow
case.
His first proposition is that men who
married plural wives before there was
any law inhibiting the practice, and
who have since the passage of the law
confined their sexual relations to bot
one wife. should not be prosecuted at
all under the section of the statute
which makes polygamy- bigamy so
long as they live with but one woman
in the relationship of 8 wife; leaving
both men and women free to believe in
the moral and spiritual tie as existing
letWeea the man and his other wives.
C aiming that that belief and the ex-
preston of it falls not within the line of
rightful interference by the civil power.
Second. Men who have violated the
Law on conviction of bigamy, should be
required to give security that they
would confne their sexual relation to
one of their wives, who should be regis
tered as the mans lawful wife.
Third, He would have neither of the
above classes of men prosecuted under
the third section OF the Eimunds law
for any association with the plural
wives that was not sexual.
Fourth, He suggests that the third
section of the Edmunds law be con-
strued by the Supreme Court of the
United States; and
Fifth, That q suitable person from
the Department of Justice be detailed as
a special counsel TO take charge os all
under the Edmund law

FIeHrING rHE MoNoPoLY

The patrons of the telephone COM
psny in Rochester, New York, have
taken the proper and effective course
for bringing the monopoly 10 terms.
According to a dispatch the other morn
ing, at noon on Saturday, the telephone
customers discontinued the use of the
instruments. q combination having
been entered into that until the extor-
tionate charges were discontinued, the
telephone would not be patroniEed.
Since then nothing has been heard FROM
the contest, but it is Presumed that
the fight goes on. and it is hoped that It
will continue until the company yields
and becomes reasonable in tariffs.
OF all the monopolies developed in
this land and age OF meDopclies, none
has BEEN more grasping, greedy and
wicked than the Bell Telephone Com
pany. Realizing that it had something
which the people could not well
do 81 without, it has from the
first, preyed upon the neeessi-
ties of the public, braEenly plum
dering the community, and in effect
asking. What are you going to do
about it," People are paying from 400
to 500 per cent. per annum on the cap
ital invested for every telephone instru-
ment in use. Protests against the rob
berry avail nothing. You are told that
you are not compelled to hire the teIe
phone, the company knowing at the
same time that you must hire it, be-
cause your neighbor and Compel
itor has one. The way to bring
the owners of the telephone to
terms, and compel them to come some
where within reason with their tariffs
is for the people Of a town or.city 10
combine as the people of Rochester have
done, and all refuse to be robbed. As
the assault is upon the purses of tie
it can oBiy be repelled by
q united front in opposition Itis idle
for one or q few 70 fight the monopoly,
as in that case those who fight
merely indulge in the improbable
exercise of biting of their noses TO spite
their faces. The people have gotten
along without the telephone. and they |
can get aiong without it again. The
of the Rochester struggle will
be awaited with interest by other cities.
If the people in the city named shall

ANOTHER RAILWAY PRoJEcr.

The filing OF the articles of incor-
poraticn Of the Utah Midland Railway
Company, noted elsewhere in this issue
of Tia HERALD. may mean much or
nothing. Schemes for building railroads
are bern and developed so mysteriously
nnw-e-days. that the public is ever at q
loss 10 know whether or rot to place
confidence n new projects and prom
ises. II haE the contemplated railroads
OF which we have heard during the past
few years were CONSTRUCTED, the Terri
tory woald be literally tied together
with iron, and the SAUNDERS of the in
hGbItants be constantly disturbed by
the ringing of locomotive bells and the
sereeclIiEg Of steam whistles. For some
iaeHpICGbie reason, from the capitalist
N the background to the young man
who dregs the chain for the preliminary
survey solemn silence is maintained
as. to iHte 1iions, and it is only with the
shrewdness OF a trained detective that
cDe car learn the facts of what is really
doing or contemplated in many of the
rumOred railway projects. To such q
degree IS this mystery maintained, that
it nag be doubted if the Salt Lake in
oorpoTstors OF the Midland know any
thing of the aims and abilities of the
company.
HoEeEer, it is evident that there is
soon TO be some railroad building in
Diah end it IS probable the Midland
VIII be the earliest to begin operations.
Il is ssid in the same mysterious man
ner in ghich all things concerning new
rosdssa- told, that abundant wealth
aud-eaergy are back OF the enterprise
and that tbs work will be crowded
ahead as fast as money can make
1t 20. The HERALD hopes this is
all true, and that the proposed
railway will be built. But
with this wish is another, that If the
road shall be constructed to this city
or any other point west of the Wasatch
range, it Sill not stop until it reaches
the Pacific. What Utah needs most in
the way of railroads is q new line to
the ocean, which will aid her to obtain
some Of the advantages Of competition
as well as develop some of her resources
lying along the route.

MOVING THE SEA TO PARIS.

The city council of Paris have und er
consideration the adoption of plan to
convert the Seine River on which the
city is located into a canal of sufficient
capacity to admit the passage of ocean
steamers. and thus convert the inland
city of Paris into a seaport. The dis
lance from Paris to the mouth of the
River Seine, TO which point the canal
woaId have to be constructed, is about
one hundred and ten miles, and the
estimate of the cost OF the work is $780,
10000. Modern engineering skill, an
the enterprise of capital are working
wonders in this world OF ours. Distance
is fast becoming annihilated and the
whole world is being closely brought
together By means of almost in
slant communication. Neither the
height of mountain systems, nor the
depths OF valleys, nor the wide expanse
of ocean Is capabI of throwing obsta-
eies in the way that discOurages mans
