The street Railway and the south Side.


Indianapolis Gazette.
The street railway question came ND in the
Council last Monday night and as usual every
Democratic South-side member arrayed himself
upon the side of the johnson monopoly What
has this monopoly ever done for the South Side2
Ii has dumped upon the South-side lines the
WORKOUT and haf-dead mules from
It's North-side lines, and not until the building Of
new lines on the South Side by the cable com
pany was assured. did the johnson monopoly
make the least show of doing anything to bene-
it the patrons of the South lines: but now
that monopoly is pretending to make some i'm
provements. hoping TO cut off support TO the
cable company The cable is coming and 1t is
going TO receive the support of our people.
Southsiders want safe, rapid aud comfortable
street-car travel. and they know they'll get it on
the cable lines; and they also believe that the
lines of the new company will advance the
price in real estate so per cent. where the John
son monopoly has not advanced it 5 per cent
The cable road to Garfield Park will be worth
many thousands OF dollars annually to the city
of indianapolis and will be of special benefit to
the South Side.

man may lift.with both hands from 200
70 290 pounds; his shoulders will support
$50 pounds. when his weight to his load
is as from to 8, a man can lift with best
effect. He can push horizontally about
ITO pounds, and pulling together men can
pull about 20 pounds each. But in carry
ing or lifting without some definite rule
for guidance, men are always apt to over
estimate their strength or the strength
of their draft animals. Hence, as a con-
sequence, many serious strains follow,
which, if not taken in time, settle into
chronic pains or deformities. An i'm
mediate application of ST. Jacobs Oil to
man or beast, thoroughly followed up un-
til the overstrained muscles renew their
strength and the pain ceases, then a cure
follows, and it is handy and cheap mode
of getting over a very trying difficulty.
BY way of example, Mr.. George NJ. Gray,
city bill poster, Dover, N. H. made his
original statement in 1878. June p, 1887,
he writes: "About nine years ago sprained
my back; had to be carried home. In
stead of going to the doctor / used St.

W. T. Dowdall, postmaste,, Peoria, Ill,
made his original statement in 1881:
"Over two months ago fell on the ice,

great suffering until / got st. Jacobs Oil.
First application to my surprise gave great
relief; one-half bottle cured" June 20,
1887, he says: ut cured me. Can't add
anything. I think it a great remedy"
Mr.. S.W Dixon, Baraboo Station, Wis, June
Ia, 1S87.-"Have not felt the least effects
from my hurt since I was cured three
years ago. Fell from my engine then and
sprained my back terribly; thought the
life was knocked out of me-" MI. John

Geo. r. Blanchard, in answer to inquiries
made by the Interstate commissioners regard
ing the proposition of the roads in the Central
Traffic Association to weigh and inspect freights,
says: 'It is the sincere purpose of the railroads
to put a stop to the evil of undertaking by in
epeeting and weighing A great part OF the
freight was caught at some point in transit and
weighed. Much Of it was done at Buffalo. The
ultimate design TO weigh everything and
