CAN'T DENY n.
When the Facts are brought Home
to Us and by our Neiehbors too
They are Marietta Facts.

A wholesome suspicion is one of onr
characteristics as nation. In matters
worthy of investigation we want real,
tangible facts regarding it. The word
of those we know; the nearby evidence
obtainable, are generally what we
most desire. When we call on a neigh
Dor, man of business at that, and say
You have had some experience with
so-and-so; what do you think of it?"
and he answers: Just the thing; l
know because have tried it." 1t goes
long way in helping our decision.
This is always the case with Doan's
Kidney Pills. Everybody who has us
ed them for any kidney complaint will
tell You: They are just the thing"
Why? because they do the work every
time and in all disordered conditions
of the kineys. The proof lies with your
neighbors. Many have been cured in
Marietta and are ready 10 tell you or
anyone enquirlng.
Mr.. Wm Green, of 406 Harmar street
Foreman of the Painting Department
at tKelly's Carriage Works, says: II

TREATMENT OF PRISONERS.

To the best of it's ability the United
l.ates is giving considerate attention
to the many military prisoners falling
into it's hands. In no previous war in
history have captives been so prompt
ly cared for and rendered comforta-
able. The action Of the government
marks a new era in regard to an en-
emy forced to surrender. Savages
slaughter prisoners not only for re-
yenge, but to secure personal trophies.
Even among nations called civilized
the practice has been to deal harshly
wit. those whom they disarm. Pris-

daily during the cholera years, 1885
and 1866; and has been printed in The
Sun probably a thousand times. u

So bravely guarded by the bars

Against a tyrant throne
And yet, wherever it may wave,
Our proudest boast will he

the new line from the Maine Central de-
pot to the mill OF the s. D. Warren Paper
Co. was passed in the upper board but
tabled for one week in the lower branch
for further examination.
The meeting was called to order at $50,
and at once it was voted to go into joint
convention to have hearing on the
matter.
r. III. Gardiner was the first to speak.
He thought that they ought to have the
new line to put Gardiner on an equal ba-
sis with other industrial cities. In 1852
similar line was contemplated, and he
believed that IL 1t had been built Gardi-
ner would. today. be a city of 10000 peo-
pie. He outlined the proposed route and
said that he would be glad to answer any
questions. He was asked If the road
could be constructed without going along
Water street. He replied that the only
other way would be to cross Bone Island,
and that route would necessitate the
moving of large buildings and the useless
destroying of good water power.
City Solicitor Spear was called upon
and spoke warmly on the subject. He
thought that it was a grand opportunity
for the city not only to help It's present
industries but to hold out better induce
ments for prospective industries. He
closed by referring to the line that was
to be built from the Kennebec river to
Pennington or some Franklin county
town. He thought that the building Of
this new line would be start towards
getting the terminus of he Franklin coun-
ty line at Gardiner. 1t would be in the
right direction and when built one of the
hardest pieces of the proposed Franklin
county line would be constructed. lie
thought that it was an opportunity so
grand that the city could not afford to
let the smaller details Interfere with the
one great plan.
Harry Richards though that 1t would be
a saving of $4,000 a year to the indus
tries and of course this meant great
thing to the city. He thought, however,
that they ought also to be careful in the
details and know what they were in
dorcing.
The two branches then adjourned to
their respective rooms and the board of
aldermen passed the order without any
marked delay. In the lower board dis
cussion arose about the details and finally
they voted to table it for one week, and
| appoint a joint committee of five to con-
| fer with the civil engineer concerning
| the proposed route.
| The councilmen appointed on the COM
| mittee were Councilmen Richards, Aver
| ill and Andrews. Mayor Walker appoint
cd Aldermen Cobb and Potter.
| The bonds of several victuallers were
accepted.
An order was passed by the board OF
aldermen authorizing the city treasurer
to sell the Lincoln street schoolhouse lot
for a sum not less than $500.
