A Common Cold

The Best Remedy

for Colds, Coughs, and all Throat and
Lung diseases, ever used in my family.
Robert vanderpool, Meadville, Pa.
Some time ago I took slight Cold,
which, being neglected, grew worse, and
settled on my Lungs. had hacking
cough, and was very weak. Those whe
knew me best considered my life to be
in great danger. I continued to suffer
until I commenced using Ayers Cherry
Pectoral. Less than one bottle of this
valuable medicine cured me, and I
feel that owe the preservation of my
life to its curative powers. = Mrs. Ann
Lockwood, Akron, New York.
Ayers Cherry Pectoral is considered,
here, the one great remedy for all diseases
of the throat and lungs, and is more
in demand than any other medicine OF it,

the cylinders under the gates. is con-
trolled by small Stop-cOcks. If full
head of air were to be turned on. the
gates could be lowered in just about half
second but the result would be dis
astrous, as there would not be enough
left of the timbers composing the bars
to build fire with. The speed of lower
ing the gates can be controlled so nicely
that If the Waterman cares to take the
time he can let them down so gradually
that they can scarcely be seen to move.
Any of the four bars can be operated
separately. 1t takes, generally. from
half to three-quarters of minute to
lower them when a train is coming.
The cost OF operating these gates is
practically nothing, as the only expense
TO them. after the plant is put in. is the
salary paid the Waterman, and the man
whose business it is to repair the pumps
and pipes should they get out of order,
which they are very liable to do in wet
weather. A sudden change in the at
mosphere will affect the workings of
the air pipes materially, and in cloudy
weather the gates are not used at all.
AT every street intersection are these
gates, and glancing down the track one
can see a row of the elevated little
houses, looking for all the world like
line of martin boxes about a country
barn.

NEW BLOOD WANTED.
DhOCO " ANIED.
A Republican Cry to Change in
Candidates.

Lake Superior News.
The gubernatorial situation in Mime
sofa bears no comparison to that of any
previous campaign. Where there has
always been vigorous struggle for the
Republican nomination, we find now ap-
parent apathy, and the candidates most
prominent each seems to distrust his
8ewn strength. Gov. McGill's administra-
lion has been reputable, but little more.
Z His antl-election pledges left him small
opportunity to impress his own individul
atty upon his administration. There is
mo cause to grumble with his governor
ship, but there is every reason to believe
{ that any successful and honest business
man could do as well. Gov. McGill,
therefore, Is not strong candidate, and
he realizes it. Banker Merriam at one
! time seemed likely to have boom. but
the awful suspicion that his popularity
5 was measured by the barrelful has
more than outweighed his good
qualities, and Mr.. Merriam is
practically shelved. Banker Scheffer
did something toward killing his towns
man by capturing his strength in Ram
sey county, but his eagerness to stand
on any platform for the sake of an in
dorsement disguised the plain people.
lie IS, moreover, at variance with his
party on the one local issue-high IL
cense-and his candidacy can only be
considered diversion.
The situation was never so oppOrtune
for new candidate, a man from the
people, sought by the office. The slate
makers are not in good odor. and in the
convention of this yeaf it is the young
blood that tells. The man whom the
News would rather see governor than
any other in the state, the man who
would roll up the biggest majority ever
given any candidate in Republican Min
neSota, the man whose honesty is above
reproach and whose ability is beyond
question is Knute Nelson. But his own
expressed unwillingneSs to be candi-
date, and the general feeling that he
could do better service at the national
capital, are arguments whose cogency
the News must admit.
Nelson aside, we have not far to seek
Tor man of ability and tried capacity,
well known III the state and having
blameless political record. G. A. Gil
man, of st. Cloud, eX-lieutenant gov
ernor, has already been mentioned, and
that mention has been in every case ia
yorably received. He is not seeking
the office, but that is in his favor. He
is not candidate, but in the event of a
general request it is to be supposed that
his candidacy would receive the cordial
support of MI. Gilman. He is clean
man and an able man, and could serve
as governor with credit to himself and
the state. He would be a more accept
able candidate and a stronger governor
than either McGill, Merriam OF Scheffer.
The young blood would be enthusiastic
for him, the old wheel horses are well
disposed toward him. In our humble
opinion, the state convention could not
make better OF wiser choice than G. A.
Gilman, of st. Cloud.

RECEPTION TO DIR. CHASE.

One of the pleasantest church recep-
lions ever given in Minneapolis occurred
Tuesday evening at the First Baptist
church. 1t was in honor of Rev. W. T.
Chase, the pastor of the church, who
has just returned from an extended visit
on the Pacific coast, much improved in
health. The doctor is very popular
among the members of the congregation,
and when the good news was made
known that he had returned, feeling far
better than for years, a grand hand
shaking receipt on was the result. The
time probably four or five hundred were
present, and converSed upon social top
les. The ladies served dainty lunch,
consisting of ice cream and cake, after

WORKING THE GATES.
The Compound-Air System of
Guarding Street Crossings on
Railroads,

NuuAuiuS otECSt SToSSlnSS on
Railroads.
At the intersection of the Milwaukee
road and Sixth avenue south and Frank
lin avenue, on the railroad property,
are funny little houses perched away
up on single pole, much after the
manner of a bird house. The sides of
these little houses are of glass, and the
only way to get inside is to climb up an
iron ladder,which runs up the side of the
post supporting the house, and enter
through small trap door in the floor.
Immediately over the ladder. There is
a man inside these little houses all day
long, who never seems to be doing any
thing except to look up and down the
tracks. At each side of the track, where
the roadway crosses, are two large, up
right bars, swung on what appear to be
small iron wheels. When Jrain comes
along the bars gently descend, the two
upper ends meeting as the bars come
within a few feet of the ground.

should any happen along, from approach
ing near the train while is crossing
the street. But few who have seen
these gates in operation know how they
work, further than that there is some
hidden power which works them, and
do not know that there is any connec-
ton between the gates and the small
glass house perched up On pole. but
there is. and it is from these small
houses that the gates are lowered and
raised.
The gates are worked by the watch
man in the house with as much ease as
a lady winds her watch. All he has to
do is to turn a small lever, and the gates
lower or rise at his will The power
used is compressed air. In one corner
of the house, the corner furthest from
the trap door leading to the ladder. is a
small, hand air pump. connected with a
big air drum in the ground below by an
inch pipe, which runs down through the
floor near the center of the end of the
room. When the pump is worked the
air drum under the ground fills up, and
a stop-cock prevents the escape of the
compressed air. This air comes I'D from
the drum again in pipe similar to the
one it went down in, and on reaching
the room again passes into number Of
smaller pipes. about one-fourth of an
inch across. These pipes, four in num-
Der, run to small cylinders under the up
right posts, which when lowered, form
the gates across the roadway. Here it
works the same as steam in an engine
cylinder, causing the gates to fall or
raise, according to how the current is
turned.

goes into these small pipes, leading to

Protection and Labor.

Philadelphia Record.
1t is true that food is cheap in this
country and that wages are compare
lively high. But this has always been
true whether we had high tariffs or low
tariffs.
Protection does not make food cheap.
The farmers are the food producers, and
protection adds to the cost of nearly
everything the farmer has to buy.
Protection does not increase wages,
because the laborer contends with all
corners in the open market in the sale
of his labor. He gets higher wages be-
cause he earns them by better, more
rapid, and more efficient work.
If the laborer gets one-half of his Hv-
ing-cbeap food-in spite of protection,
the remaining half of his living
shelter, clothing, medicine, tools, and
other necessaries upon which taxes are
laid-iS made so per cent dearer for him

SUNSET,

Written for the Globe.
Als the heavens touched to splendor, like the
~ banners of host
Ethereal dyes commingling on field of sap
phire tost;
Vast the swift protean changes, amethystan
amber frets,
Riding on the wheeling currents, surging
- into angry jets;
Black as Tartarus, fair as Ida, real as lions
+ tabled towers,
Sweeping on their huge tattalions where
Eolus threats and lowers.
Silence stronger than Jove's thunder binds
the far Olympian peaks.
As the sun gods dazzling chariot on a wall
of emerald breaks,
Darts the arrow of his glances ON the cloud of
Iris woe.
Till she filings the matchless splendor of her
cOnsecrated bow;
Rears aloft its arch triumphal, glowing with
prismatic grace,
Born of ocean-tlde and sun-blaZe-daughter
of royal race.
Southwark, seething from CT ucible of Baby
lonian bars,
Rise, in vapored exhalations, sacred heca-
tombs of stars.
Towering high in Alpine grandeur swell ce-
lestial hills of gold;
All the subtle breath of evening into gilded
mountains rolled.
Slow recedes the royal chariot, with its
princely steeds that prance,
With the jeweled trappings flashing like
Grecian warriors lance.
In veil of Tyrian purple edged with brill
iants all abiaze,.
The god i'll mercy hides from us his too re-
splendent gaze.
Rubies, sapphires, emeralds. opaIs, sardonyx
and chrySolite
Burn their fires to gem his setting as he bids
a world goodnight.
