The Disease More Prevalent Than Ever ana
Quite as Fatal. The Best Treatment.
The grip has surprised the doctors and
health authorities this season by its rapid
spread and by some novel symptoms.
While it spares nobody, 1t Is proving es-
pecially dangerous to middie-agsd and
elderly persons. In many cases either a
fatal onset of pneumonia, or a complete
breakdown Of health and strength, is apt
to follow an attack of grip.
The wise course for all is prevention.
By wearing Bensoas's Porous Plaster on
the chest and back you protect the lungs
from cold and chill and with ordinary
care) you are safe from grip.
For those who are already suffering
from grip, or from the usual winter
coughs and colds, Bensoas's PIDsters are a

A radical innovation has been
adopted by the Arkansas Board of
Charitable Institutions, regarding the
management of the State Insane asy-
lum that is causing CONSERVATION
among the employees of the institution.
The board has adopted resolution to
the effect that the superintendent shall
as speedily as practicable secure only
citizens of Arkansas for the various
positions, and that the change shall be
made in ninety days at the furthest.'
There are 100 employees at the asylum,
white and colored, and of these about
60 are citizens of the state. OF the
white employees, including the assist
ants and those in the higher stations,
not more than 25 per cent will be ex-

is about completed. Few orders were
issued and these were to provide seats
for female help. Many excuses under

these have been attended to-
The matter of inspecting the mines Is

mines have been inspected regularly,
but insuff1ciently because the law did not
require them. If the bill goes through
a thorough inspection Of all mines will be
necessary.

LUMBERNEN Up N ARMS
OBJECT TO BEITRAMI COUNTY cIT-
IzENs' APPEAL FOR TAXES ON
TIMBER LANDS
ARE TOO HIGH ALREADY
1t Is Claimed That Valuations on
Timber Lands Are Excessive
and UnreasonabIe-Up
to the Senate.

minneapolis lumbermen take issue with
the Beltrami county citizens who want
the legislature to sanction their acts re-
sfectlng the imposing of taxes on tim
ner lands and as to the causes which led
TO the present state of bankruptcy in
tnat county The lumbermen have been
charged with evading taxes, which. it is
claimed, was largely responsible for the
financial depression which now exists
Judge McClananhan rendered a deci-
sion recently in a suit brought by the
county against T. B. Walker ct al. in
which he held that the levy of taxes
for 1888 was Illegal and their payment
not therefore in accordance with law.
The lumbermen assert that the citizens
of the county declined to abide by the
act of the legislature fixing the limit of
taxation at $4,000 and arbitrarily raised
it to $20,000.
Exorbitant valuations, the lumbermen
claim, have been placed upon the lands
and rate of taxation, greatly exceeding
that allowed by law, imposed. This
rate it is claimed by T. B. Walker, led
to total of $4,000 for 1899. and $72, 900 for
1900. Aside from this the land from
which the timber had been cut was
assessed at Sc an acre when, in reality,
the lum6ermen could scarcely get as
much as 81 per acre for it. Such actions
as this would necessitate the lumbermen
taking out all the timber in the county,
it is claimed, unless a reasonable rate
of taxation could be maintained Should
the legislature modify it's former act tho
lumbermen claim they would have to
remove all their timber now or they
would fail to get a sufficient amount to
pay the taxes accommodating for the next
five years.
The lun.bermen say they are willing to
pay a reasonable tax on their lumber.
When the last legislature was asked to
raise the taxation from $12, 900 to $4,000
they offered no complaint. But they
maintain that 1t is an outrage for the
citizens to now petition the legislature
to IegaIize their actions in increasing the
taxes beyond what the law allowed. The
lumbermen thus attach the blame of the
countys present dilemma to the resi-
dents and county authorities, who, they
claim, have been extravagant In the
face of the district courts decision up
holding the act of the legislature.
1t is not known just what turn az
fairs will take with the legislature, but
today the senate judiciary committee will
meet to consider the bill introduced by
Senator Mccarthy, which was framed in
the interest of the distressed residents
of Beltrani number of citizens from
the county will be at the committee meet
ing and no. doubt there will be a large
representation Of Minneapolis lumbermen

First and foremost. REST.
Take care of yourself. Your already
weakened nerves want rest, and must
have it. If the attack is severe, go to
bed and remain there. More fatalities
result from the neglect Of this precau-
ton than from any other cause.
Eat sparingly. Your digestive organs
are in no condition to take care of large
quantities of food
Drink plenty of pure. cold water. It
allays the fever, stimulates the kidneys
to action and opens up the pores of the
skin. Keep the bowels open with DR..
Miles, Nerve and Liver Pills.
Take three doses of DIR. Miles Nervine
per day, and If you cannot sleep take an
extra dose at bedtime. To further con-
troll the fever, and to overcome the Pc

ettectuaiiy, and no DAD eHects result
from their use. These remedies have
been thoroughly tested more than a
