Is liz RIGHT
IS IT RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend
Patent Medicines?

From Sylvan Valley News, Brevrad, ~ &.
1t may be question whether the editor
o! a newspaper has the right TO publicly
recommend any OF the various proprietary
medicines which flood the market, yet as a
preventive of suffering We feel It a duty to
say ~ good word for Chamberlaiu's Collie,
Cholera, and Diarrhoea Remedy We
have known and used this medicine In cur
family for twenty years aud have always
found II reliable. In many cases dose of
this remedy would save hours Of suffering
while a physician is awaited. We do not
believe in depending implicitly ON any
medicine for a cure, but we DO belieN c
that ii a bottle of Chamberlaip's Diar.
rhoea Remedy were kept ON hand and ad-
ministered at the inception OF an attack
much suffering might be avoided and I'm
very many cases the presence OF a physi-
clan would not be required. At least this
has been our experience during the past

Newspaper Censorship,

1t is not surprising that all the news

the British. No paper is permitted to
express pro-Boer ideas. The following

American RAILWAY Service.

II is beyond question that American
1ilroads to-day furnish the best ser
vi ce in the world at the lowest rates
of tare, at the same time paying their
eml ,loyes much higher wages than are
paid for similar service in any other
rount ry on the globe. In the United
States the first-class passenger fares
last We ar averaged 2.14 cents per mile,
elthour y on some large railways the
average was several miles less than
two cent s per mile; in England the
6rst.class rate Is four cents per mile;
third.class fare for vastly Inferior SER
vice Is tw cents per mile but only
on certain parliamentary trains. In
Prussia the fare is 2.99 cents per mile.
Our passene 'cr cars excel those OF for

The city hall committee Of the city
council, consisting OF w, s. Smith,
chairman; A. p. Saunders aud James
Mabon, yesterday evening met and
recommended the erection OF an up TO
date city hall They condemned the
present structure as dangerous and
unsafe They selected rs the site for
this magnificent structure the plot Of
ground which lies Immediately west
OF the alley Swest OF Second street be-
tween Oklahoma and Harrison ave-
nues, to the railroad limit. AS 70 the
method of raising the funds 10 carry
out this splendid work the committee
will meet again and discuss line Of
procedure.
IL Is proposed 70 take this plot, NOV
ing all the old shacks off it,opeu a nice
street by widening the alley TO avenue

with trees. In the center will be erec-
ted a beautiful s,oue and brick build.
ing, two stories high, with tower.
The basement will be used for n city

ment will have room4 on the FIRST foor
On the second floor will be located
the city council chamber and a com
modious assembly hall, sufficient to
seat and accommodate not less than
500 people.
Today Mr.. G. G. Kneisley called upon
the committee and suggested that it
aleo aonaidar the practton of n cOuva-
nient city library in connection with
the hall, the same TO be under the con-
troll Of the women's clubs of the city,
who are now engaged in such a sPlen-

able cry library. De felt certain
that the citizens OF Guthrie would en-
dorse such splendid plan II the com
mittee were to undertake 1t. The
committee took kindly TO the idea and
believe II an excellent one which they
will cheerfully consider.
The building aud establishment OF
this ciiy hall upon the elaborate plan
as spoken OF means much for Guthrie.
1t will have more influence toward
substantial and permanent growth
than almost any thing else. 1t can he
