The Mills of Justice

Often grind slow and sometimes
not very fine, but generally in the the
long run an offender will get his dues.
w. Kirby Robinson is an object
lesson. For years and years he has in
various ways broken the laws of the
commonwealth of Arkansas only to
time and again slip through the clutches
of the law and each time he became
more fearless. But he met his fate
when he rified one of Uncle Sam s mail
stations-the postoffice at Shibley--of
the robbery of which he was convicted
in the U. 8. court at Fort Smith We'd
nesday. The case is still fresh in the
minds of our readers and the manner
in which Robinson was connected with
it. The belief is now prevalent that a
case will be made against one of the
others who were arrested with Robinson
in Missouri at the time.

Joe Barnes has the contract for a
half million railroad cross ties to be
delivered at Van Buren,. Let our read
ers think for a moment what an i'm

any timber is left in the land when one
views the net work of railroads.
Joe received the first load under the
contract Tuesday, j. II jackson living
three miles east Of town being the party
who brought them in. Joe is the man
to fill the contract for there is hardly a

Biliousness, dyspepsia, loss of appetite,
disturbed sleep, nervousness, headache,
giddiness and drowsiness, wind and pain
or fullness of the stomach after meals cold
ehills and flushings of heat, shortness of
breath-these are the blank cheques of
physical bankruptcy. Take them to a
physician and he will fill them up with the
name of some more or less serious disease.
Every time that you carry one of them to
him you draw out some of your funds in
the Bank of Health Keep il up and there
will soon be no funds in the treasury.
The man who suffers from these dis
orders and neglects them will soon be in
the relentless grasp of some fatal disease.
If he is naturally narrow ehested and shall
low lunged it will probably be consump-
ton; If his father OF mother died of par
alysis or some nervous trouble, it will
probably be nervous exhaustion or prostra-
tion or even insanity if there is tant in
the family blood, it will be blood or skin
disease; if he lives in a new or a low,
swampy country, 1t will be malaria if he
lives life of exposure, it may be rheu-
matism. There is just one safe course for
man to follow who finds himself out of
sorts and suffering from the symptoms
described. 1t is to resort to DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. This medicine
makes the appetite keen, eorrects all dis
orders of the digestion, renders assimila-
tion perfect, invigorates the liver purihes
and enriches the blood and builds firm,
healthy flesh and nerve tissue 1t cures
almost all diseases that result from insult
fcient or improper rourishment of the
brain and nerves. Bronchial, throat, and
even lung affections, when not too far ad-
vanced, readily yield to it.

Why should any legislator vote
for Henry w. Corbett for U. S
senator? Wherein is the aged
banker in sympathy with the aims
and purposes of the common people?
Is it because he is a man of wealth
and is willing to use uuscrupulous
means to secure the position? The
belief is general that Mark Hanna
is in the senate by reason of bribery
and other millionaires have DUR
chased seats in our highest legisla,
tive body. The election of the
richest man in the state of Oregon
would be taken as another case OF
legislative debauchery. No one
doubts for moment that upon q
vote of the people of the state, Hon.
Binger Hermann would get fifty
votes to Corbett's one. Then whv
should legislators misrepresent thei,
constituents?-The Dalles Times.
