There is good deal of adverse criti-

be an attempt to bluff the county from
proceeding with the cases by piling up
as much cost on the county as possible,
and the feeling is that Comfy Attorney
Hughes should proceed with the cases
if it takes all winter and bankrupt the

tend that protection shall be extended

happens that this is a free country, and
even if we disagree witch certain forms

why those meetings should be disturb

ANOTHER ROAD.

Omaha Officials Interested in New
Road to run from Madelia Through

Articles of Incorporation were filed
Saturday for the Watonwan Valley rail
way company The incorporators are
w. A Scott, j. G. Stewart, L. A. Robin
son, J. F Clark and E. E. Woodman,
all officials of the Omaha railway com
pany
The projected line will diverge from
the Omaha road about mile south of
Madelia and go directly south through
Fairmont 1t is believed that it will
strike the new line that is to be put
through the present year by the Chica-
go & Northwestern railway company
from Sanborn to Burt, Iowa, at the lat
ter point, but where it may go from
there is problematical
1t is likely that more miles of railroad
will be constructed in Southern Mime
sofa this year than for several years
past. The earnings of he roads have
greatly increased the past year. owing
to the return of prosperous times in all
branches of business. and the roads
have money 20 spend on improvements
and extensions l has been some years
since the railroads have been in a posi-
ton to do much
The fact that articles of incorporation
were filed Saturday for straight road
between this city and New Ulm has re-
ceived very favorable comment on the
part of our citizens. The question
everywhere heard is, ''Does it mean
business?" In reply to this question,
put to him by Free Press reporter,
Supt. Spencer replied that he had no in
formation on the subject When asked
the same question, Mr.. Jno. G. Noe re-
piled that he thought that the proposed
road would very likely be constructed
this year. The first thing to do will be
| to stake out the road, and then acquire
the right of way Mr.. Noe was inclin-
ed-to believe that Right of Way Agent
Cleveland will do this work.
Mr.. Noe has on several occasions
aided the G. & N w. and the Omaha
roads in the matter of acquiring right
of way, and from conversations which
he has had at various times with Mr..
Sanborn and other officials he knows
that the New Ulm cutoff has long heen
in contemplation, He has always con-
sidered the route on the west side of the
river the most feasible, and so stated to
Mr.. Sanborn years ago, and that official
took the same view at the time.

Spain's Sunken Ship FIoated.

Perhaps the greatest mechanical feat
of the century has been the raising of
some of the Spanish warships which
were apparently shot to pieces at San
tiago. Tt seemed utterly impossible to
float them because of the terrible dam
age inflicted by our guns, but the task
has been accomplished. Diseases of the
blood, stomach and liver frequently
wreck the health so that there appears
to be no chance of recovery. But when
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is taken,
the disordered system is speedily re-
stored to it's old-time vigor and tone.
The bitters will regulate the liver,
bowels and digestive functions and
purify the blood You can buy this
remedy in any drug store, and under
no circumstances should you accept
anything said to be ''just as good"

SOLVING THE BISCUIT PROBLEM.
Uneeda Biscuit and their Albright Pack.
age Please all Housekeepers.

age Please all HOusekeepers.
Housekeepers have found their prob
lens made much easier and their labor
made ghter during the past few years
by many inventions and improvements
of the specialties in provisions placed
on the market have abundant merit,
but others are of uncertain value. All
housekeepers agree, however, in prais-
ing the enterprise that has supplied
them, through the nearest grocer, with
Uneeda Biscuit, the new food article.
Uneeda Biscuit, which has met with
such Immediate popularity, is success
full because of its simplicity 1t is a
new IA sed biscuit of superior excel
lence and of peculiar shape which has
all the crispness and freshness that
makes soda biscuit just out ,fof the
oven a most exquisite n1orsel The
lack of this oven flavor in ordinary bis
cult is often the fault that makes them
unpalatable. The soda in the biscuit
soon absorbs moisture from the air and
the cracker loses it's crispness Even if
it should dry out again the flavor has de.
parted forever ..,-..-.- -. $500.
This difficulty has been overcome in
Uneeda Biscuit by a special package
which is moisture proof and air proof,
so that it will retain for a short time all
the goodness that the baker was able to
put originally into the biscuit Uneeda
Biscuit can be found in almost every
grocery store. Ea s4l5.--a-
That the trouble which has hereto
fore made biscuit an uncertain article
of diet, sometimes very good and at
other times the reverse of good, has
been overcome by these methods is
proved by the instant demand for
Uneeda Biscuit in households all over
the country. The new biscuit are never
sold in bulk, but always in the peculiar
package, and the price, I've cents a
package, is an illustration of the won
derful cheapn.ss of food which has
been often commented upon
Such a biscuit as this has great value
for its digesti, ility and healthfulness.
and housewives at once apprec ate its
convenience and economy. Uneeda

chase of biscuit need not be an expert

or not. 49, --.,-
