we're toward. Every friend became his
enemy as he looked at the good sword
on the wall and vainly tired to raise the
impotent arm.
Words it has been said are fossil his
tory. The Roman natIuslists chrlstened
the leopard Le0bayany because they sup
posed the spotted creature was the joint
offspring Of lion and tiger. So the name
leopard, embalrns ancient Ignorance and
preserves it like a fly in amber.
It is the same with the word rheuma-
tsm- Its name implies that 1t was sup
posed to be a sort OF rheun, catarrhal
affection, such as results from cold.
And while the treatment for rheumatism
was based on that theory 1t was small
wonder that cures were infrequent- To-
day we locate the cause OF rheumatism
in the blood and we drive It out scien-
tifcally by the use of Doctor Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery.

CHANGE OF VENUE WANTED.
Mrs. Nations Attorneys File a Peti-
ton in District Court

Mrs. Nations Attorneys File a Peti-
ton in District Court.
The attorneys for Mrs. Nation yesterday
fled a petition for a change Of venue be
fore Judge Dale Of the district court. all
Ieging as a reason for requesting the
same that the court is prejudiced against
the defendant and consequently eanno
give her fair and impartial trial next
Friday.
The petition IS voluminous affair and
rehearses the entire case from the date
Of the arrest including the motion for a
writ Of habeas corpus upon the occasion
Of her first arrest in this city. when she
was confined in the county jail and later
refused bail because OF the quarantned
condition of the jail.
The entire conversation between the
court and the attorney for the defense is
given in full and this alone covers sew
eral pages of typewriter matter.
Then referring to the second arrest on
which occasion Lucy Without, Julia Evans
and Lydia Muntz were also charged with
malicious destruction Of property and
malicious tresspass, the petition states
that the court showed its prejudice by
fixing the bond Of each for each oneuse at
$500 which IS equal to the maximum
amount Of fine that can be assessed
against them in each case.
The attorneys for the defense further
take exception to the refusal of the court
to listen arguments on the two first
grounds of the motion to quash.
The attorneys request that the couFt
send the case to some other district In
which the court bears no preiudi e
against the defendants. In addition to
the motion for a change Of venue, a no.
mand viii be made for Joint trial of the
charge against the four defendants.

Hardly any branch of agriculture is so profitable as sugar beet raising where the soil is favorable and q fac tory is at hand The manufacture of sugar at present prices is abnormally profitable where it can be carried on on a sufficiently large scale But most of the cane producing countries can produce little else. They must stay in the business, and by improving their methods they can greatly reduce the cost of production. The world is bound to have cheap sugar, and the profits of culture and manufacturing will have to come down to normal rates.
