Mcdowell County People Anxious for An
other Outlet and Willing to Help Pay
for it.
Special to the Register.
WEIGH, w. Va, March 14-It is a
current rumor, and one which can be
readily believed, that number Of Nc
Dowell citizens living in the Dry Fork
neighborhood DESTROYS of reaping the
benefits of a railroad have subscribed
ten thousand 10000 acres of land to-
wards the building of railroad from
Jaeger on the Norfolk and Western
Railroad to the head OF Dry Fork, and
have made overtures to a Chicago firm.
The territory through which this road
would pass is mostly virgin forest,
and the coal deposits are fully as rich
as those of the Elkhorn Valley.
One of the good things which may
happen in the dim future will be the
extension of the Norfolk and Western
from this point up Tug river, to tap
the Pocahontas coal vein. 1t is under
stood that twenty-five coal leases have
been let and will be worked just as
soon as rails are laid to them. The
fact that the road is in the hands
of receivers will no doubt postpone
any early realization of these hopes,
but the fact remains that the road
will have TO be built sooner
or later up Tug river A nine
foot vein of coal is already exposed at
no greater distance than five miles
from here.
Thirty houses are being built at the
saw mills of w. NJ. Ritter, here and
large amount of new and improved
machinery has arrived, with which 1t
is expected to double the production of
lumber Eighteen cars OF lumber have
been shipped from this mill during the
past week.
The building boom, which began
last week, is increasing in strength,
and bids fair to gain additional vigor

how Paine's celery compound is re-
garded all over the country.
Woman's peculiar life brings a
Ianguor and listlessness that are best
met by Paine's celery compound. The
dispirited condition, the backaches,
the neuralgia headaches, the Sleep

dispelled when Paine's celery COM
pound is used.
Mrs. Goldman, writing October 80
from her home, 157 Scott street,
Wilkesbarre, Penn, says:
"Fully appreciating the benefits
from the use of Paine's celery COM
pound I recommend it to others. Suf-
fering from sleeplessness and ner-
vous debility, I was persuaded to use
this truly greatest of remedies. AL
though I car have every medicine
from my brothers, the druggists here,
I gave Paine's celery compound a
trial, and must confess only to my
benefit. My only boy, four years old,
was also treated with it, and his ner-
vousness has disappeared. My faith
err, Rev. G. Kuehn, with whom l live,
thinks a great deal of Paine's celery
compound. shall always keep it in
the house."
There are untold numbers of women
who are working and worrying
enough to drive them Into their graves
if Paine's celery compound were not
always in their homes to strengthen
and restore their brains and nerves
when there was great need of it.

Women preachers, as we'll as women
lawyers, women voters, women bicy-
clists in business are making it more
and more apparent that "the gentler
sex" is not necessarily "the weak
SEX" morally, mentally or physically.
Rev. Mrs. Lydia Goldman is an ex-
ample of the womanly woman whose
influence for good in the community
is on a par with that of the manly
man.
She is not one of that silly class OF
persons who, broken down in health
by mental Dr. bodily strain, not quite
sick enough to be abed, put off think
ing seriously of getting well.
Improperly nourished nerves and
poor blood soon pile up a desperate
number of disorders.
On the other hand, when reduced
health and spirits are early recogniz-
ed and courageously taken in hand at
once, when Paine's celery compound
is used to restore the integrity of the
nerves and blood, no further trouble
is to be feared.
Paine's celery compound at once
corrects any unhealthy condition OF
the nervous system. 1t forwards the
richest possible elements of growth
to every nerve cell and the remotest
nerve thread throughout the body.
Paine's celery compound positively
cures every form of nervous debility

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.
U. s. Halls Joint and Concurrent
Resolution Providing a Substi-
tute for the Income
Tax.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., December q
Representative "Riley" Hall, of Mis-.
souri,, introduced in the House to-day
a joint and concurrent resolution
amending the Constitution of the
United States which is destined to
play an important part in Congress-
sional politics. The resolution was
prepared with care, and by Mr.. Hal
submitted to eminent lawyers before
being introduced to see if it would
stand the test. 1t proposes to solve
the fatal defects in the former in
come law. The language of the reso-
luton is this:
"Resoived, That all taxes, as well as
duties, imposts and excuses, shall
be uniform throughout the United
States"
To become q law this concurrent
resolution must be passed by two
thirds of a quorum in both houses and
then ratified by three-fourths of the
Legislatures of the different States.
Congressman Hall has been CORES
ponding with the Governors of the
different States and finds that the
feeling in favor of such a measure is
very strong. He has assurances that
will be favorably received by nearly
every one. Secretary of State Olney,
who, as Attorney General, defended
the income tax law, knocked out by
the Supreme Court, is of the opinion
that this measure will accomplish the
desired end by paving the way for a
law that will stand the test and at the
same time bring in millions of revenue.
Should it be opposed by the Republi-
cans it will prove a campaign factor.

Presbyterians as Office Holders.

What can there be about Presbyter.
ianism that makes so many of its
adherents successful in politics? We
are now reminded that both the Hon.
Warner Miller and the Hon. Thomas
@. Platt are Presbyterians. We need
not name our Presbyterian Presidents.
A few days ago we spoke of a dozen
or more Governors of States who are
Presbyterians. There are plenty of
P~resbyterians in both Houses of Con-
gress. 1t must be that the Presbyter-
ians have a pretty keen scent for the
flesh pots of Egypt. The Methodists
in this country are nearly four times
as numerous as the Presbyterians but
they seem to be much less skillful in
politics than the Presbyterians. The
Baptists, too, are thrice as numerous
as the Presbyterians; but fewer of
them than Of the Presbyterians gain
the mastery in the political field.
In this case it would require a great
deal Of thinking to evolve and work
into shape the true philosophy under
