THE LAW IS GOOD.

Justice Shiras, Of the United STAGES
Supreme court, ut Washington, on
Monday, affirmed the decision OF the
supreme court of North Dakota in
the case of Norman Brass against the
state of North Dakota, known as the
elevator case" This case, which is
very important. arose under the act
of the state OF North Dakota, which
declared that all persons who owned
elevators and warehouses for clcvat-
ing should receive all grain brought
to them for storage, ii they had room,
and insure at rate fixed by the
state. The North Dakota courts sus-
tanned this act and their decision is
now affirmed by the supreme court.
Under this decision elevator owners
will he compelled to receive grain
brought to them, whether they desire
to or not, insure it, and charge for
storage and elevating as fixed by the
state.
Justices Brewer, Field, Jackson,
and Whit, disscnted from this dccis-
ion, Justice Brewer characterizing 1t
as contrary to law and common sense,
and declaring that there was no SIM
tlarity between this case and the Chi.
cagO elevator cases decided some time
ago, and in which the elevator men
were wOrsted.
Justice Brewer commended that the
evidences showed that only ON light
grain years did Brass receive grain
from others, and that this did not
make him Il public warehouse keeper.
During the year in question Brass
needed all the capacity of his elevator
for his private purposes, and that
this did not make him a public man,
to do u public business. Justice
Brewer disscntcd also because the
law compelled elevator keepers to In
sure the grain taken in charge by
them.

ayers Pills are the best mediciusI
ever tried; and. in my Judgment, no
better general remedy could be devised.
I have used them In my family and
recommended them TO my friends and

TO my certain knowledge, many cases
OF the following complaints have been
completely and
Permanently Cured
by the use Of Ayers Pills alone: Third
day chills, dumb ague, bilious fever,
sick headache, rheumatism, fiux, dys.
persia, constipation, and hard colds. I
know that a moderate Use Of Ayers
Pills, continued for few days or weeks,
m the nature Of the complaint required,
would Ike found an absolute cure for the
disorders I have named above"

eight years. and I can safely say that
Ayers Pills give better satisiaction

Inequitable Apportionment.

The action of the republican county
central committee in the matter of
granting to each precinct one delegate
at large in addition to the regular ap-
portionment was, in the opinion Of the
CHRONICLE, i'll considered, and manifest
" inequitable and unjust to the larger
voting precincts. BY this system of
ap~portionment precincts casting 8 votes
are entitled to two delegates. or one for
every 4 votes, which, as may be readily
seen. is greatly in excess of the repre-
sentation given to the larger voting
precincts. For the purpose Of illustra-
ton, we will take Custer precinct, which
cast l2i votes, and would be entitled to
10 delegates upon the basis Of represent
alton established for the smaller pre-
cincts, while as a matter Of fact she can
only be allowed 8 under the rule adopt
ed.
There is no valid reason apparent to
us why any precinct should be allowed
a delegate at large. The apportionment
Of n delegate for every Is votes or
major fraction thereof, with a provision
for one delegate for all precincts casting
less than s votes, would have been far
more equitable than it is with n delegate
at large granted for each precinct, which
must be apparent to all who will give
the question a moments thought.

II. II. Francis, one of the directors of
the factory company, arrived here from
Akron, Ohio, on Monday. and in an
interview with a CHRONICLE reporter
said that everything was progressing
satisfactorily in the arrangement of
matters preliminary to the completion
and operation Of the factory at this
place. Some delay in the manufacture
of the machinery has been caused by
the strikes in the east, but it has all
been finally completed and would ar
rive here in a week or two if not de-
layed by the strikers while on rout,.
Two l00-horse power boilers of the
Sterling make, and two Hamilton Corlis
engines, along with two mica and graph
lite puIvcrizer3 and a number Of paint
grinding and mixing machines have
been procured, also the large kettles
used in the manufacture Of axle grease.
Mr.. Francis will remain here and look
after the affairs Of the company until
the plant is ready for operation, when
j. w. Hanna, the general manager, will
take charge.
Painters are now at work painting
the building, and work OH the engine
room, which is TO be 49x50 feet in di-
mansions, will be commenced next
week. Men will be employed cutting
poles for the electric light early in the
coming week. A 1900 hight comhina.
ton electric light machine will be put
in which is capable of producing arc and
incandescent lights, with sufficient adj
di;ional power to operate a line of street
cars, or for such other purpose as may be
desired. 1t will require about q month

for operation after the arrival Of the
machinery, which should all be here
