A PRuTEsT
Legislators Who Object TO Railroads
Gobbling Mineral Lands.

Governor Barber yesterday received an
official COPY of the following as it was
passed by the Montana legislature:
A Joint resolution to the governors and
legislatures of the states of Idaho,
Washington, California, Nevada, Colo
RADIO. Wyoming and Oregon and the ter
r~itJries of Utah, Arizona and New Mex
leo.
WHEREAS, The Pacific railroads hay
ing immense grants Of lands are laying
claims to large areas of gold. silver, cop
per or lead bearing mineral lands on
which are thousands of discovered min
ing properties and to which they are not
tiled under the acts giving them their
grants and have been permitted to select
millions of acres OF these lands to which
they are now earnestly endeavoring to Sc
cure patents and should such patents
issue without further congressional
action it would under the present de-
cisioas OF the cour give to these corpora
tons all the undiscovered mines, as well
as take FROM their TiRhIfui owners thou
sands of mining properties already dis
covered. And believing that congressional
action alone can preserve these mineral
lands and mines to the people forever
now, therefore, be it
Resohued, Thas the legislature in SEN
ate and house of representative assembled
do earnestly urge upo you the impor-
lance of acting Jointly with US IN memoir
talking congress for such action as will
preserve TO the people the mineral lands
forever. Also to select someone who
shall have authority to act for and
represent you in the effort to save to the
people this precious heritage, whose pres
snt and future value cannot be estimated.

Handwriting has its characteristics,
and is a study in itself to those who want
to become familiar with its peculiarities.
1t can very easily be told whether a per-
Vol whose writing you want to identify
is a man or q woman, q minor or adult.
1t is very seldom n handwriting assumes
its permanency before the writer is 25
years old. The age Of the writing can
approximately be determined by variens
methods. If it has a ~Spencerian appear
ance you may know it was written after
1882, as at that date the Spencerian sys-
tenn wa introduced. If it is the black
aniline ink that is generally used every
where now, you may know it was writ
ten after 1873. The older inks had iron
or some diluted dyestuf for a basis, and
preceded the aniline. An analysis of the
writing will most generally determine
the date of tle writing Louis Globe
Democrat.

The two greatest scourges of man

ara generally supposed to be Phthisis
and rheumatism, but we are told by this
eminent authority that if any physician
were asked which is the worse of the two
he w"uld probably decide for rheuma-
tism. 1t not only leads to as many
deaths as phthisis, directly or indirectly,
but causes n vast mOu of loss of time
and power and immense pain. The
rheumatic tendency shows itself in IA
great many other disorders, such as in
digestion aud headaches. It produces
not merely pains in the joints. but in
Examination of the serous membrane, and
leads 10 the formation of ''clots' or
hbroGs misses in the heart, which, be-
coming detached. are liable TO be carried
to The brain and cause paralysis. DR..
Brunton stated that the old fear of caus-
ing serious damage to patients whose
hearts are weak by abruptly checking the
pain is now much diminished. This is
owing to the discovery that the well
known remedy, salicylic acid, may be
freely employed without risk. provided

matter which they took up while here
was the building of a new ~stlrehouse

the material for it was all
either on the ground or ordered. 1t

the immediate necessity for it and 1t will
be at once built. The structure will be Of
