STREET RAILWAY BILLS.
Two of Them Relating to Franchises
RecOmni IsGed to Pass.

Two bills, II. F. 3l5 and $50, both relating
to the granting of street railway fran
chises by boards of county commissioners,
yesterday.
II. F. SO authorizes boards of county
commissioners to grant rights to construct
and operate street railway lines on high
ways in counties outside of cities for a
period of not to exceed twenty-five years
upon such terms and conditions as the
board shall prescribe.
BY Mr.. jacobson, the bill provides for
the companies purchasing within fifteen
years the land of such highways that
have been vacated to allow the line to be
constructed. The boards of county COM
missioners are also authorized to levy
taxes on the property of the railway COM
panies in proportion to the tax other
property in the county.
II. +. SO ratifies and confirms all acts
made by boards of county commissioners
since Jan. l, 1894, granting to railway com
panies such rights as are in accordance
with Fl. F. 315.
Mr. FOsnes OUnion), of Chippewa, had
the words land United States mails
eliminated from both bills, the original
bills providing that the lines so construct
ed and operated were to be for the trans
portation of passengers and United States
mails"
Under the bills. if passed, lines will be
constructed by the Twin City Rapid
Transit company between St. Paul and
Saltwater and Minneapolis and Anoka.

be selected as the president pro tempore
of the senate.
AS a matter of fact, The G o b Is in
formed, this feature of the caucus did not
occupy five minutes. The rest of the time
was spent in "a discussion of the manu-
facture of possible political thunder.
Economy was the pass word to the eau
Gus for those who came late 1T having
been decided early in the game that in
view of certain recent political losses in
the way of machine patronage and the
like, the party must go in on bold stand
for retrenchment. Chief in the estima-
ton of the caucus stood the trimming
down Of the omnibus bill to such a figure
that 1t would prevent the necessity of an
excessive tax levy. This is what the Re
publfcans leaked last night. AS a matter
of fact, perhaps, there were other ques-
tons considered, but the official announce
ment of the results Of the caucus deliber-
atoms were to the effect that the commit
tee would meet at the call of the chair
man during the time when the omnibus
bill was pending in the legislature.

THINK THIS OVER.
A Rational Remedy for ii Nations
FRO


Trouble,
To saw that hemorrhoids or the dis
ease commonly known as piles is a ma
tional disease may be slightly overdrawn,
hut 1t Is quite certain that at least one
In every four persons is afflicted.
Because 1t is common and not iInmed-
ately fatal many suffer for years without
giving the trouble any medical atten-
ton.
Moreover the rather general impress
sion that a surgical operation is the only
cure has much to do with delaying at
tention until the disease becomes deep
seated and chronic.
Sufferers from piles should know that
the Pyramid Pile Cure is better than a
surgical operation, it cures without pain,
it causes no detention from business and
the cost is trifling. all druggists selling
it. at 80 cents per package.
The astringent effects of the acids in
the Pyramid Pile Cure speedily contract
and restore to their natural condition the
blood vessels of the affected parts, and
asit quickly dissolyes in the recturn the
remedy soothes and heals the irritated
surfaces, and these two things are the
only necessary requirements for. cure.
The principal danger from piles is the
liability$.to chronic liberation of the
rectal tissue, and nervous exhaustion
from loss of sleep and attendant main
and irritation. All these symptoms the
Pyramid quickly relieves, and the fact
that it Is the most popular and widely
sold of any pile cure is quite conclusive
evidence of thorough merit. If YOU suf-
fer from bleeding, itching or protrud
ing piles, try a fifty-cent package To-
night. Ask your druggist for Pyramid
Pile Cure.
