When ANYTHING stands a test Of fifty
years among a discriminating people like
tee Americans, it is pretty good evidence
that there is merit somewhere. The val
ne of medicine is best proved BY its con-
tinued use from year to year by the same
persons and families, as well as by a
steady increasing sale. Few, if any. med
icines have met with such Continued sue
cess and popularity as has marked the ln-
PRODUCTION anil progress of Brandreth's
Pills, which, after a trial of over fifty
years, are conceded to be the safest and
most effective purgative introduced to the
public.
That this is the result CT merit and
that Braudreth's Pills actually perform
all that is claimed for them, is concluslvely
proved by the fact that those who regard
them with the greatert favor are those
who have u.ed them the longest.
Braudreth's Pills are sold in every drug
and medicine store. either PLAIN or sugar
coated.

The Douglas Budget shows that thir.
teen cattle outfits In that county paid this
year in taxes sl3,6I6 Sc. The tax roll
foots up about $50, 900. This is an object
lesson which it would be well for all con-
cerned to heed. 1t is about the same
proportion as prevails throughout the
state-as was previously shown in The
LEADER-and therei is no good reason why
it should be recklessly thrown away. 1t
is impossible to fnd any other industry
which wall be instantly available for the
purposes of taxation. aud those now IN
existence would be crushed in the en-
deavor to maintain the entire burden of
county and state expenses.

The Conductor would Not Resign.

n CONDUCTOR 40 tsish
Colonel Thomas F. Fisher tells n story
which is a good one. Among the first
railroads built in the United States was
a little line about twenty miles in
length. In the course of time a big
tunnel line was constructed through the
same country. The original line be-
came merely a branch. For many years
it was run in q cheap way, with n
locomotive, n engineer and two or
three freight cars.
Finally a new general manager was
appointed. He had been in the Office
but a week when he sent for the one
lone conductor who had held the posi-
ton ever since the road was built.
Il would like to have you resigna-
ton" said the general manager, when
the conductor appeared.
my resignation inquired the con-
ductor in establishment.
"Yes, sir; yours"
"What for, pray
"Well, 1 want to make some changes
and get new blood in the line" was the
general managers reply.
Il won't resign" answered the con-
ductor.
"Then Twill be compelled to discharge
you, a step which for your sake l had
hoped l would be saved from taking"
Young man, you will not discharge
me. Town a controlling interest in the
stock of this railroad and elect the presi-
LEM and board of directors. l shall have
you fired"
The old conductor did really own the
majority of the stock, and, as he said,
put in his own board of directors and

MONTREAL, Dec. 2S.-DuriDg the first
week of June next an extraordinary
gathering will take place at Kamloops, in
British Columbia. There will be present
about 1000 Christian indians from
various parts of British Columbia and
probably a number OF Pagan Indians.
Rev. Father Lacombe has organized a
unique gathering and during the week the
Passion Play will be presented by
Christian Indians THIS performance is
not. of course. the prime reason for the
gathering. There is understood to be a
desire to meet one another, com pare notes

whose misfortune 1t was to hear them.
One of them deliberately arose from his

To he Editor of the Dispatch:
Dear Sir.-Much has been written lately
in regard to the necessity of increasing
the number OF cars or providing separate
cars for the races. ! witnessed something
Yesterday afternoon which am quite sure
would have convinced any one seeing H.
that something ought to be done, and
done at once. About 4 T.. N. | took u
west-bound car at the corner ofSeven tn and
Broad streets getting on the back seat.
On the next seat IN front of me were four
men-three white and one colored. When
the car reached Fifth and Clay streets
there was a crowd of negroes waiting to
get on. ! was little curious to know
where they were going TO get. as the car
WAS already well filed. This was soon set
tied by seven Of the nun ber-four women
and three babies-piling on the seat in
front Of me, making eight adults and three
babies in space barely large enough for
five. Two OF the gentlemen got up as
soon a. they could and got out. The other
unfortunate was 50 pinned in that he
could not get out. will admit that this
is Nh exceptional case, but / have often
seen two or three negro women standing
In front of ladies when there was already
