needy and suffering. Tho rroprietors of
DR.. Kings New Discovery for consump-
ton, coughs and colds have given away
ovor ton million trial bottles of this
great medicine, and have tho satisfaction
of knowing it has absolutely cured thou

chitis, hoarseness and all diseases of the

is largely removed from the immature
Judgment of politicians and placed in
the hands of com petent tribunal.
Competition is the remedy provided
by the interstate commerce law to pre-
vent discrimin atoms. The object of
the Trainer of that law was to stimulate
thelnormal efforts of rival lines to draw
business from each other. The COM
mission and the author of the law now
frankly admit that the method has in
tensified the evils it sought to cure.
No other way has yet been devised to
accomplish the desired results than
pooling contracts made under the sup
ervision and control of the interstate
commerce commission. This super
vision and control take away the dan
gers which were apprehended from
these com binations. The government
becomes party to the contracts. The
government judges of their reasonable
ness before they can be executed. The
government keeps it's eyes and hands
upon their workings, and mobiles or
annuls them as the public interests re-
quire.
| have not time to discuss govern
ment ownership. 1 have studied the
workings of this system in Europe.
The service is such as would not be
tolerated in this country after our ex-
perience. The rates are double ours,
because the government finds this an
easy way to raise revenues. The en-
ployes are virtually in the military ser
vice and governediby iron rules and dis
cipline. They are the mainstay of the
government party in elections. and
their places are dependent upon voting
as they are ordered. Their pay is about
half that received for similar service
in the United States. A brief ex-
perience of mine shows how with us
the whole operations of the roads
would be at the mercy of politics and
it's accidents if the railroads were own
ed and run by the government.

ROCK ISLAND RAILWAY.
Will Soon Be Running Trains Into
FL paso Over Its Own Line.

Every indication points to the.fact
that it is the intention of the great
Rock Island railway system to extend
its line to connect with the Ell Paso
and North eastern at White Oaks in an
effort to get large share of the i'm
mense railroad business of this sec
ton.
Surveyors are now at work in the
Texas Panhandle not far from the
New Mexico line, and from Fort Reno
west, says AL exchange. Anew con-
tract has just been let for grading a
new section of seventy miles. Iowa
and Illinois parties, who have means
of knowin0, through stockholders,
what the Rock Island is doing, state
that the southwestern branch will
cross the Pecos river between
Puerto de Luna and Fort
Sumner. thence going to White
Oaks to connect with the El.Paso and
Northeastern.
In ia there is every reason to be-
lieve and none to doubt that it is only
the question of few months until the
Rock Island trains will be running into
Ell Paso and this city will receive an
other lift toward greatness.

HELP THE PUBLIC LIBRARY
BY Taking Advantage of This Simple
Method of RAISING Money.

The directors of the Ell Paso public
library will this week issue cards ask
ing for contributions of twenty five
cents for the purchase of new books.
1t Is intended to send these cards to
every public spirited man and woman
in Ell PasO, and to many outside of the
city.
If anyone fails to receive a card, tbe
oversight will be entirely uointentjon al
and postal card informing the direc-
tors of the omission will receive prompt
attention.
An order for new books will be sent
to Philadelphia today, and anoth-
err order, probably she largest ever
sent, as soon as the aforesaid cards are
returned to the treasurer.
The amount asked for Is so small
that some may think il scarcely worth
their while 10 respond. Dat two thou
sand quarters will amount TO five nun
dred dollars, the careful expenditure
of which sum will bring to Ell PasO
books which will attract humid eds Of
readers to the little room in the Shell
don Block and later, to the large and
attractive rooms, SO generously added
to the city hall for theuse of the library.
All who are interested in education
and progress will surely give two
minutes of time, two cent stamp, aud
silver quarter to this most worthy
enterprise.
