states can no longer decide for them
selves the question of taxation, it's
methods and amount, upon property
within them, Of corporations existing
by virtue Of their laws, exercising, in
their construction and operation, a
grant of the sovereign power of emf
nent domain, there is nothing left Of
state sovereignty except the shell.
States are mere provinces, exercising
such powers as their suzerain permits.

CROKER GOING ABROAD AGAIN.

Races.

NEW YORK, Jan. %. - The state
ments Of a London newspaper that
Richard Croker would return to Eng
land In April and run his horses in
the first Newmarket meeting have been
partially confirmed by Mr.. Croker him
self.
He refused to discuss his plans at
length, but stated that, if the condition
of his string Of horses justified it. he
would enter some Of them at the New
market meeting.
IF the horses are entered and moth
ing unforeseen occurs TO prevent 1t,
shall go to London early in the spring"
said he, land I may possibly enter my
horses at other meetings on the Eng
lish turf
Mr. Croker will not say whether he
would remain in England throughout
the racing season. and refused to dis,
cuss his plans further.

NORTH DAKoTA's scHooI, FIND

The constitution of North Dakota
provides that the permanent school
fund may be loaned ION first mortga ges
on farm lands in the state, not exceed
ing in amount one-third of the actual
value of any subdivision on which the
same may be loaned, such value to be
determined by the board of school ap-
praisers Of school lands" This provi-
sion has not been utilized until now.
when, after some agitation in the pa
pers demanding that the funds be So
loaned, loans to the extent of s24 COO
have been placed. The statutes con-
tain regulations for placing such loans
which seem to be sufficient to guard
the fund against loss, if honestly exc
cuted and the business judgment of the
appraisers is sound. The human fac
tor is the unacceptable one in all such
matters, and experience amply shows
that it is not always a dependable one.
Unless human nature is of a higher or
der In North Dakota than elsewhere,
where such disposition has been made
of school funds-and certainly nothing
in its history indicates that-the school
fund of that state is in danger of seri-
Gus impairment.
Wisconsin, fifty years ago, also per-
mitted the loan of it's school fund on
land security. The arguments made for
it were the same. the need Of currency
the injury Of tying up large amounts
Of money. the benefits resulting from
its circulation. the absurdity of appre-
hension Of loss from real estate loans
in state where values were sure to
advance. The experiment was tried
and Wisconsin will never forget the
lesson it taught. Every man with a.
pull got loan. Appraisers had gem
erous notions Of values. The specula-
tive spirit was abroad. and land prices
discounted their future heavily. Poll
ticians bought land and mortgaged II
to the state for more than they paid
for it. When loans matured foreclo-
sures followed, and the state found IT.
self the owner of quantities Of land for
which it could not get a fraction of
the amount due. The impairment of
the school fund was great, but the les
son, coming so early, was worth it's
cost. Minnesota has gone as far in
that direction as it is ever safe to go
in extending loans to school districts,
but it retains, in the taxing power, the
means Of certain reimbursement in
case of default
To put the danger of the Dakota
provision in a strong light, suppose it
had been in force in 1880, when the
boom was on in the territory and men
went daft over land values; when quar-
ter sections, potential town sites, sold
for prices running into the thousands,
and wild farm lands got prices far be-
yond what they could command today
with their improvements? Even if the
state had not been controlled by the
element that then dominated 1t,
would not the fund have been swept
into the naelstrom Of speculation that
drew into it the most conservative
judgments? And when the reaction
came, that did come. where would have

Waiian treaty during this week. Tho

suit In the senate giving the major
portion OF its time until that date to

tnat necessary to the consideration of
appropriation bills. Senator Turpie has
given notice Of a speech on the Teller
resolution for tomorrow, and it is ex-
pected that the speeches for 1t will ba
made by Senators Teller, Pettigrew.
White and others, and that there also
Will be some addresses in opposition.
Senator Nelson has offered an amend

the parity of the two metals. but the
silver men, considering this proposed
modification hostile to their purposes.
will not accept 1t. They say they win
insist upon vote upon the resolution
as it stands.
Inc pension appropriation bill will be
called up Monday, and as soon as it is
disposed Of the senate will be asked
to take up the legislative, executive and
Judicial appropriation bill. Each Of
these will provoke some debate, but It
is not expected to be prolonged In
either case. When the treaty next
comes up Senator Teller will be recoe-
nized to speak in its support, and ha
will probably be followed by Senator
White IN opposition. The vote on the
treaty now appears at least three
weeks distant.
The house programme for this week
includes little of interest beyond the
limits Of the District Of Columbia. AL
most the entire week will be devoted to
the District of Columbia appropriation
bill. 1t is expected that the Indian ap-
preparation bill, the consideration of
which was begun yesterday, Will be
completed tomorrow. The only item in
the bill which is likely to cause much
of contest is that providing for the
leasing Of the gilsonite beds Of the I'm

provision was beaten IN the last In
dian bill and will be stubbornly con-
tested now. The district bill will prob
ably consume the remainder Of the

SLEEPLESSNESS
FROM RHEUMATISM

From the Democra.-Message M. Sterling. m.

The prevalence of rheumatism in this part
of the country has long been source Of
unfavorable comment by other localities less
subject to this affection. Indeed there are
few adults in the Valley of the Mississippi
who at some time in their lives may not ex-
pect TO realize the direful effects of rheuma-
tism in some one of its different forms. In
this immediate section the attention of The
Democrat Message has several times been
called to particular instances wherethe effects
of this malady have rendered life almost
uncomfortable.
In this connection it may not be out Of
place for this Journal to refer to a recent
incident. We refer to Mr.. John J. Friday,
Jr., of Ripley, H., well known to many
of our people as young man OF character
and standing. Last spring Mr. Friday was
attacked by rheumatism in its severrst form
he, like many others-probably inheriting
a tendency to the disease. A reporter met
him the other day and found him about as
lively a looking young man as there is in
Brown County. In reply to an inquiry rs
to the remedies used by him which had re-
suited so favorably, Mr.. Friday said: g In
the spring of 1896 was attacked by rheu.
matism. The disease progressed until was
past getting AROUND. For long time was
unable to lie down in bed and was forced tC
sit up as many as four nights in week
without going to bed N all. consulted the
leading physicians both in Mt Sterling and
Nashville, but obtained no relief. My con-
dition was growing worse, and it seemed as
if nothing could help me.
In talking with George RiggleS, a friend
of mine, he said that he also had suffered
from rheumatism and had been completely
cured by using DIR. Williams Pink Pills.
He told me that before he began using this

knew that he had, shortly before that time,
been afflicted as l. was, and therefore con.
cluded that If he had been benefited BY their
use they might help ME. also heard that
Mr.. James Stout, q prominent farmer near
Ripley, had been cured of rheumatism by the
same means. made some inquiries Of him
and he confirmed what l had been told. 1t
was about all | could do to get to Ripley,
but managed to make the short trip. 1

them as directed. After had taken half

and used six or seven boxes. My improve.
ment continued until l was entirely re-
covered. now consider myself cured, and
have no more feeling Of rheumatism than il

al believe that DR.. Williams Pink Pills
are entirely responsible for my recovery, as
before l began their use my condition was
steadily growing worse. If you Gaze to I1b-
am perfectly willing that you should do
so. l believe it will benefit others who suf.
fer from this disease. took six boxes and
consider DIR. Williams Pink Pills the best
investment ever made"
There are probably many other instances
in this part Of Illinois where this painful and
stubborn disease has been cured by the use
of this remedy. and we will from time to
time publish further accounts as they may
be brought 10 our notice.
