FOR A STEERING COMMITTEE"

The idea advanced by Bishop Wal
tiers and others that there should be
organized here in Washington a per-
manenJ steering committee" to look
after the political welfare of the race
is a splendid one and should be vital
lied at once. Legislation in Congress
must be pushed, members must be seen
and impressed, money must be raised
for legitimate expenses, meetings must
be held for the purpose of arOusing
and interesting the people. and Wher-
ever wrong is perpetrated the fact
must be inquired into. If our we'll
being is worth looking after, some
body of men and women must be
authorized to take hold Of the work,
and system must be employed if favor
able results are TO be hoped for. The
Colored American would like to see
called together such able and public
spirited citizens as Messrs. John C
Dancy. Judson ". Lyons, P. B. s.
Pinchback, Jesse Lawson, George H.
White. Daniel Murray, Cyrus Field
Adams. Robert H. Terrell, Whitfield
Mckinley and others of equal stand
ing and influence to confer upon some
plan how best to secure better results
for the race in legislation. the courts,
the press, on ears. and places for gen
eral accommodation. We hope such
meeting will be called by someone at
the earliest possible moment.

HAS NO BOTTOM.
Spot in the Lake Which Engineers
Are Trying to Fill.
Especial to The Herald.

NSpec1ai TO The Herald.)
ogden, Nov. 1S.-The engineering de-
partment, as well as the operating de-
partment of the Southern Pacific. is
having considerable difficulty over a
stretch of track opposite the mouth of
Bear river. At this point the Great
salt lake appears to be bottomIess. and
the theory is advanced that the outlet
OF the lake has been discovered in the
mole over which the tracks have been
constructed. For this short distance
the track cannot be made firm, and sew
eral trains have already plowed into
the mud owing to the sureadiue of
rails and the settling Of the tracks.
Inc troublesome spot is directly on
posite the mouth of the river which for
unknown ages has deposited the soft

River valleys into the lake. When the
work was in process the piles could

bottom until seventy-six feet of piles
were in place. Over these piles the

until 1t came up to the top of the pill
ing This seemed to make things Sc

lowed The soft bottom will scarcely
bear the weight of the rock and washes

READY TO ADJUST.
General Board of Engineers to Meet
Officials of Road.

No session was held yesterday by
the general board of adjustment rep
resenting the engineers of the Oregon
Short Line system. The men have prac-
tically completed their work, and there
is very little more to do except wsit
for the return of the officials who are
now on trip to the coast. The men
will know today when a conference can
be had. A list of the grievances has
boz prepared and will be presented
in documentary FORM but most of the
questions are of a nature that are best
disposed of in a personal meeting, and
for this reason the men will wait.
The members of the board are reti-
cent regarding the nature of the griev-
apces TO be discussed. Some of them
are Of eonsidera BILE importance to the
engineers although having little public
interest. The men have accomplish d
great deal of work and have been
able to weed out a number of matters
which they feel are not of sufficient
Importance TO bring up at the confer
ence with the officials.

HERINGER'S CASE.
WHY A SALT LAKE MAN IS
HAPPY.
Kickapoo Indian Sagwa Rescued Him
From Dread Disease.

Ihere is no doubt whatever that kid
ney trouble breaks down the health of
more people every year than any other
disease of similar nature Weak and
unhealthy kidneys are responsible for
many complications and if permitted
to continue much suffering and fatal
results are sure to follow.
Kidney trouble irritates the nerves
and makes you dizzy, restless, sleep
less and irritable. Kidney trouble
makes you pass water often during the
day and get up frequently during the
night. Kidney trouble leads to rheu-
matlsm. gravel, catarrh of the bladder.
makes your head ache and causes indi-
gestton and serious stomach and liver
trouble
In one way and one way only can
you avoid this train of evil which has
wrecked many life. and that is by
taking kickapoo Indian Sagwa at the
beginning. Sagwa will certainly cure
you. 1t has cured thousands
Henry Heringer, 146 w. Second South
St, is the haDpiest man in Salt Lake
City because he has got rid of a bad
case of Kidney trouble. Mr. Heringer
says. Il have, suffered for years with
stomach and Kidney trouble Lately my
kidneys especially have been giving me
much anxiety and pain. / was all run
down and had no appetite at all. was
hardly able to work and suffered severe
pains in the back. But now. after using
KickapoO indian Sagwa for few
weeks feel like a new man and con-
slider myself cured"
Take a lesson by Mr. Heringer's ex-
perience. Do not delay but begin the
use of Kickapoo Indian Sagwa at once.
II has cured thousands and will cure
you If you gi7re It a chance. Remember
your money Kill be cheerfully refund
ed If you are not satisfied.

AN EASY WAY
To Keep We'll.

1t is easy to keep well if we would
only observe each day a few simple
rules of health.
The all important thing is to keep
the stomach right and TO do this II is
not necessary to diet or to follow a set
RUE or bill Of fare. Such pampering
simply makes a capricious appetite and
feeling that certain favorite articles
of food must be avoided.
Professor Wiechold gives pretty good
advice on this subject. he says: Il am
6S years old and have never had a Sc
rious illness, and az the same time ny
life has been largely an indoor one
but early discovered that the way
to keep healthy was to keep a healthy
stomach, not by eating bran crackers
or dieting of any sort. on the contrary
| always eat Whatenny appetite Graves
but daily for the past eight years /
have made it a practice to take one or
two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after
each meal and | attribute my robust
health for man of my age to the reg
ulaf daily use of Stuart's Tablets.
My physician first advised me to use
them because he said they were per-
fectly harmless and were not a secret
patent medicine, but contained only the
natural digestives, peptoTles and dias-
tdse. and after using them few weeks
1 have never ceased to thank him for
his advice.
Il honestly believe the habit of tax
ing Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after
meals is the real health habit. because
their use brings health to the sick and
ailing and preserves health to the well
and strong"
Men and women past so years of age
need safe digestive after meals to in
sure perfect digestion and to ward off
disease, and the safest, best known and
most widely used is Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
They are found in every well regu-
lated household from Maine to Califor-
MIA and in Great Britain and Australia
are rapidly pushing their way into pop
ular favor.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
and for weak stomach a 50-cent pack
age will often do $50 worth of good.

Burt Confirms lincoln.

Official circulars We're received yes

the office of car service agent. The
work is similar to that performed by
the car accountant of the Short Line.
Mr.. Lincoln will have charge of the
car equipment and all reports with ref

be made to him. This means that z.

transportation, is appointed general SUI
