A FEVER THAT NEVER KILLS.
Jefferson Bee.

Hay fever is again getting it's work
in. inflicting all manner of misery on
the noses and heads of it's victims. For
a popular ailment it is late putting in
an appearance, but it's ability to create
several kinds of snuffles is tearfully
acknowledged. 1t seems like Il small
thing to Cry about, but he jests at
wounds who never felt a stab. People
who suffer from 1t, say that the worst
feature about this horrid fever is, that
it never kills. It's apt to make folks
raise Cain.

BUILDING RAILROADS OVER MUD.
Nevada Representative
The Iowa Falls road is laying track
lin Nevada township and will proba bly,
reach town in a few days. A casual
inspection Of the grade Sunday showed
that where there is fill there is a
road bed but that where there is a cut
there is a bottomless mudhole. The
method employed for crossing these
holes is to lay ties endwise of the track
and then to lay the cross-ties on these.
This method will do after fashion
as a temporary resource. 1t suggests
considerable work later on: but 1t is not
so suggestive in this respect as is
story that r. L. Sewers tells of the
early days of the Northwestern, when
he was out on the end Of the pioneer
road to the Missouri river. The road
had to be gotten to Council Bluffs at
specified time to get subsidy. and at
or near West Side in Crawford county
1: piece of bottom land was struck,
upon which filling seemed to make no
Impression Old John I. Blair came out
and surveyed the situation, and speedi-
ly there followed carload of now
ing machines. Mr.. Sewers, being
machinist, was directed to set them up,
and shortly the prairie hay was gath
cred and dumped onto the swamp. So
the Northwestern crossed the Boyer on
a hay stack. OF course the read went
out the next spring. but that did not
prejudice the title of the subsidy. The
Iowa Falls people think they have had
a good many troubles this season; but
this story illustrates that there have
been others.

iowa democrats in distress?" quer-
les the Cedar Rapids Gazette. Not a
little bit. They have been in deep wa

fins and air bladders and are quite at

The Grundy Republican believes "the
republican party needs to have due re-
spect for the old saw make haste slow
ly' in the matter of tariff revision. The
democratic party, stripped of an issue,
is fondly hoping this time element of
the question will be fruitful of a divis-
ion in the party now in power"
The Nevada Representative thinks
1T is time for a general understanding
that tho the republicans OF Iowa un-
doubleday had and have sentiments
concerning tariff revision, they did not
express the same on their platform,
further than to uphold the traditional
policy of protective tariff. The plat
form favors changes in the tariff from
time to time when necessary, but does
not state that any changes are neces-
sary. It wishes the tariff schedules not
to shelter monopoly but does not say
that the schedules do shelter monopoly.
to the reaffirnation of the Cedar Rap
ids platform the idea became prevalent
that the Cedar Rapids platform stated
an issue; but the idea was the product
of carelessness and self-deception."

colonies, NJ. De Crals, has cabled
Governor L'Huerre at Fort de France
instructing him to make all possible
arrangements for the embarkation of
the Inhabitants of Martinique in the
event of circumstances necessitating
the evacuation of that island.

communicated to the Associated

sent to Governor LHuerre yesterday
evening: Make known If the stu
alton seems to you to necessltate
partial or total evacuation of the ISL
and, the means at your disposal and

TEXAS ALL RIGHT.
coNFERs ON THE RIVERS AND
HAR5oRs BILL.
AGREEMENT is in SIGHT.
Have Made Much Progress and Only
Few Items Are Now in Dispute
Between Senate and House.

Washington, May 2S.-There are
good grounds for the belief that the
conferees on the rivers and harbors
bill will reach an agreement today.
The committee was in session again
yesterday afternoon. At the begin
ming of the meeting, 1t is understood,
only eight items were in dispute.
Enough of these were gotten out of
the way before adjournment to war
rant the belief that the labors of the
conferees will be completed today
and a report made to the two houses
not later than tomorrow morning.
Both sides appear to have made con-
= cessions..
Representative Ball stated last
night that, in his opinion, an agree
ment would be reached today. "The
Texas item inthe bill will, believe,
be handled In a manner that will be
satisfactory to all concerned" he
said. The bill will provide that the
appropriation of $1,000,000 for the
Houston ship channel shall be ex-
pended in the construction of chan
mel of equal width and depth from the
jetties at Galveston to Harrisburg
that is, over the entire length of sec
lions ! and 2. The Trinity river APP
preparation will be left as it was in
the house bill, except that an addi-
tional $4,000 will be appropriated
for the purpose of cleaning out the
river from Dallas to point forty-nine
miles south. This will make the to-
tai appropriation 100000. The Gal
weston inner harbor project will be
given 100000. The appropriation for
the Sabine channel will be left at
S125,0OO, to which amount it was in
creased by the the senate, the hodse
having appropriated 10000.
Il can not state without absolute
positiveness that the various esti
mates will be as outlined here. but
opinion is that they will be-.
In addition to the matters mention
ed by Mr. Ball, 1t is understood that
the item of 100000 for the REIN
bursement of the Farwell interests a
velasco will be stricken out The
other Texas items in the house bill
will be left undisturbed, no changes
having been made by the senate. The
Buffal Bayou appropriation will
make 100000 Immediately available
and will provide 100000 for continu
ing contracts.
