A Claim That Caps the Climax.

Railroad people are constantly annoyed
by insignificant claims, but the Texas g.
Pacific management has one on hand which
caps the climax. Seine time ago passen-
ger train out on the Rio Grande division
killed three turkeys belonging to q farmer.
The owner was not slow in forwarding a
claim for $3.50, which the company disal-
lowed. The man then, brought suit against
the railroad in justice court. The Justice
promptly dismissed the suit on the ground
that railroad companies were not liable for
the death Of fish or fowls.

The Speakership Fight.

Mr.. Springer has shown that
he is a good politician. In all
the contest over the speaker
ship he never once lost his
temper, and when he was fin
ally forced to yield he so man.
aged as to bear away the
honors of the fray. This was
a great thing to do. In &C
complishing it he gratiied his
friends, and at the same time
he administered a severe re-
buke to those who refused to
stand by him to the end.
Springer is an interchangeable
worker and by his action in
this struggle he has shown the
country that he possesses bet
ter metal than he has yet been
credited with. He has agreat
future before him if he will
but take care of himself. To
this end let him see that he
preserves his health. Most
members of congress give way
to some form of pulmonary
trouble. If Mr.. Springer will
take Reds German Cough
and Kidney Cure he will es-
cape all danger from this
source. This great remedy is
the best thing in the world for
coughs, colds and every form
of disease that attacks the re-
spiratory organs. This makes
it invaluable for men who
have to talk in public, especial
ly in open air. The remedy
contains no opiate, so that it
can be taken at any time with
out fear of subsequent danger.
1t will cure all throat trouble
from simple hoarseness to the
worst form of bronchitis, You
can get it of any druggist, but
be sure to ask for Reds, and
take no other.

Stanford.

Senator Stanford of Cali
fornia has, it is said, become a
convert of spiritualism. The
senator is rich enough to be-
lieve anything he likes. 1t
will be interesting, though, to
ascertain whether the spirits
are urging him to make the
race for president on the ALI
anCe ticket. The best thing
that the senator can do, if he
has made up his mind to run,
is to take Reds German
Cough and Kidney Cure with
diligence. This great remedy
is the best thing for the voice
that was ever put on the mar
ket. 1t contains no poison, but
is composed of pure and sim
pie materials that act at once
and relieve the lungs of all
trouble. For bronchial diff
culties it is without a rival. 1t
contains no opium so that i t
does not paralyze the digest
ton but is relaxing, stimulat-
ing soothing and healing. OF
all cough remedies it is the
only one of which this can be
said. Aged persons will find
this OF the greatest assistance
for it enables the system to
throw off the maladies that
are so fatal in old age. In
cases of pneumonia it acts
every time with a certainty
that is marvellous. 1t has re-
peatedly brought health to
people whom the medical fac
ulty had pronounced to be be-
yond all hope. When you ask
for this great remedy at your
drug store be particular and
see that the druggist gives you
Reds, and do not be put off
with something that he says is
just as good.

Scientific But er.

Science can do wonders
The French claim now to
have so perfected the manu-
facture of oleomargerine that
1t is better than the genuine
article as made by the COW.
This shows that science is ad-
vancing. 1t may be however,
that it is all matter of taste.
A nation that took kindly to
horse steaks as a diet and be-
came SO infatuated with them
during the siege of Paris that
it has chung to them ever since
may not be absolutely trusted
when 1t comes to question of
distinguishing between good
and bad butter. Even in Chi
cago a butcher was discovered
ately who had been carving
steak from street car horses
and selling them to cheap
boarding houses, and no one
of the boarders had been able
to tell the difference. This
fact speaks volumes for the
educated Chicago palate.
There is however one thing
in which there is no adulterat-
ion and that is in Reds Ger

Echoes of the Recent Battle

The speskership contest has been over
for some days. but several democratic
papers, notably in Chicago, continue
their attacks upon William R. Morrison
for his alleged efforts to defeat Mr.
Springer and nominate Mills in that fight
They call it 'treachery." Even presum-
ing that Mr.. Morrison acted as charged
how can it be treachery? MIR. Springer
was the nominee of no caucus The
Freeport Bulletin asserts that in common
with many other democratic paper:
Qncluding THE AReUs), preferred him
for the speskership, but every democrat
had an equal right to favor ny of the
other candidates. Mr.. Springer de
sired the Office OF speaker and it W,
alaudable ambition. He therefore put
himself forward as a candidate, precisely
as did Messrs Crisp and Mills. His can
didscy was purely personal one and he
had no claims upon the support of any
body except as he might be supposed to
possess qualifications for the Office SUI
perior to those of the other candidates.
This is point, however, upon which
PEG pie may honestly differ and everybody
has an equal right to his own opinion.
There can be no treschery where there
is no obligation.
As is we'll known Col. Morrison holds
tariff reform to be the most important
issue now before the public. Mills name
has been identified for years with tariff
revision. They have been fellow-labor>
ers in the same great cause, it was only
natural that he should prt fer the Texan.
In this he was only acting within his
rights as an American citizen and as
democrat.
Mr.. Morrison was q candidate for
office himself some years ago He was
the nominee of the democracy for United
States senator. Yet he was unable to
obtain the united support of the party on
any ballot when his election was possible
There was no talk about "treachery'
then in the same papers that are now
scoring him for acting upon his own
views of what was right and polite be-
fore the caucus was held, mind you, not
afterwards.
These same papers say that Mr.. Morris
son is politically dead, that he exercise
no influence. and yet in the same breath
they accuse him Of trsnferring half the
Illinois delegation from Springer to
Mills. There is contradiction here.
Very likely Mr.. Morrison is by no means
so dead as these gentlemen would wish
Taking their own view Of the matter 1t
must be admitted that they are wasting a
great deal Of ammunition upon corpse
