biggest corporation of the kind in The
State, and consequently one of the most

kee merchants protested against The
rates several years ago The company
threw open its books, but after a long
investigation the rates were made more
reasonable particularly regarding excess
charges, Telegraph companies have al
ways sought TO avoid any responsibility
for mistakes and the blanks of each set

accordingly. The courts have held that
that provision is not binding one, but
the question of damage is tickle one
and difficult TO measure. Mr.. Cady's

mental anguish that can he offered. The
law at present limits the recovery for
mistakes of telegraph companies to nc
tual damages so that Mr.. Cady's bill
opens a very wide door.

THE women have undertaken big

the corridors of the capitol whenever the
suffrage bin or the anti-cigarette bill is
mentioned Two years ago hard fight
was made for the cigarette bill and it
came very nearly passing This year
the 1T will be renewed with all the
yigor that marked the contest of two
years ago and it would not be surprising
were it to succeed. as il is generally con
coded the Legislature at present is more
inclined TO reform measures than it ever
has been in the past. There are certain
interests that are vitality concerned In
woman's suffrage, OF these the saloon
interest is probably most prominent. for
once woman's suffrage obtains in Wis
consin the saloons will have hard lime.
Whether the brewers or distillers will
see fit to take sufficient notice Of the
movement to fight the bill is matter of
conjecture and probably depends upon
the strength that the movement com
mands for solution. The opinion is that
neither the saloon men nor the tobacco
merchants will consent to woman's suf-
frage without a battle.

The State board of normal school re-
gents held its regular annual meeting the
other day, at which the amounts which
the Legislature will be asked to appro-
pirate for improvements were decided up
on. One hundred thousand dollars Is
the amount which will be asked for an
addition TO the Milwaukee normal school.
1t was also decided to ask for an addi.
tional annual appropriation of $4,000,
which the board says is made necessary
by the constant growth Of the normal
schools, and especially by the manual
training, domestic science and kindergar-
ten departments. Other appropriations
that will be asked for are 100000 for the
removal of the boilers from the school
buildings at Milwaukee, Whitewater, Ste
yens Point, Oshkosh and Superior, and
TO place them in separate buildings; $751;
600 .or an addition TO meet the needs of
the school at Plattevlle, and $1,000 to
reimburse the normal school fund and
income fund for loss on loan made to
the Eau Claire armory.

A DRUMMER's STORY.

The commercial traveller has long en- loved a reputation for cheerfulness and pleasant disposition. As a class, drum mers arc, seemingly, the most light hearted and happy people in the world But very often their jollity Is merely good acting and back of their funny stories is acute physical pain. Eating all sorts of food at all sorts of times in all sorts of places quickly puts a mans stomach and other digestive organs out of shape and brings on indigestion and dyspepsia. The wise drummer carries a bottle of Tyner's Dyspepsia Remedy in his grip and takes dose after each meal. It relieves indigestion almost instantly and. if taken as directed, permanently cures dyspepsia in its worst forms. MT: R. F. White, of Greelville, s. C., a well known and popular drummer, says: Il suffered every day from indigestion for years. could find nothing that would relieve me only for a short time. I was induced to try Tyner's Dyspepsia Rem ody. After using three bottles I am en- tirely cured and can eat anything I like without any after inconvenience. It is the best remedy for indigestion I have ever known"
 TyEer's Dyspepsia Remedy is sold by all good druggists everywhere The price of large bottle Is 50 cents. A trial bot tie will be sent free by TIMERS DYS- PEPsIA REMEDY CO, Atlanta, Ga fri-sun-wed.

DR. SANDERS TALKS OF PRO- POSED MEASURES. ,~-
Matter of Prime Importance, He Says, is to Provide Salaries for County Health Officers.
 To Check Diseases.

Several measures will be presented to the Alabama Legislature for the improve ment of health conditions fn the State, and as they win have the solid medical fraternity of the State back of them they will no doubt receive favorable consider ation.
 The bills to be presented to the Legis- lature are in preparation. They will be drawn by Dr. w. H. Sanders, State Health Onicer, and each Of them has re- ceived the endorsement of the AlaDama Medical Association, which represents l,2O practising physicians of the state.
 The first and most important matter to be brought to the attention of the Leg islators." said pr. Sanders yesterday. 'Is a bill to provide salaries for County health officers in every County of the State. There is a statute now in the code which gives County Commissioners in each County the right to appropriate an adequate salary for a County health of ficer. Some of the counties, through their commissioners, have availed them selves of this right and have made fair appropriations but good many counties have not done so.
 We cannot operate a public health sys- tenn for the State without a salaried ex- eCutIYe Oitlcer III every (VuAltys NAbuOHt such an officer we cannot enforce health laws any more than We could enforce civil or criminal laws in a County with out a Sheriff"
 .What is your idea as to the salaries of these officials?'' Dr. Sanders was asked.
 '"The bill will provide for a scale of salaries according to population" he re- piled. Jefferson County is tne largest in the State and Winston County is the smallest. Roughly stated l would say that the salaries would range from about $l,1OO a year in Jefferson County to about $l6O year in Winston County"
 These officers would be physicians?' Certainly" said Dr. Sanders. They could not be health officers unless they were physicians"
 General Laws Needed.
 pr. Sanders. illustrating tne necessity of organizing the counties to protect pub lie health, said that under existing condi- tions 1t was next to impossible to stamp out infectious and contagious diseases in counties where there are officers, because +he adjoining counties may be without

 BILLS TO IMPROVE PUBLIC HEALTH

officers and the disease is thus easily transmitted.
 The salary bill is the chief need of the Health Department" the doctor contin- ued. If We secured all other legislation desired we could not enforce the laws without health officers in every County"
 A second bill which the Legislature will be asked to pass will provide for the suppression of infectious and contagious diseases in Alabama. This bill will prob- ably seek to regulate vaccination. pr. Sanders said it would probably provide for the operation of the law when and wherever there was an outbreak of small pox and only to an extent necessary to suppress the outbreak.
 Another bill," said Dr. Sanders, Twill provide for a prompt and regular report of infectious diseases. For instance, negroes conceal smallpox until 50 or 100 cases develop and 1t costs a considerable amount of money to exterminate an out break of that sort. If the disease is promptly reported the cost is of little consideration"
 Dr. Sanders was not prepared to go into details as to the penalties to be provided by this bill
 Sanitary Inspection Needed.
 The Health Department will also ask for the passage of bill providing for an intelligent sanitary inspection of cities and towns of the State with special reference to places where food Is offered for sale.
 ''Flies propagate all sorts of disease" declared pr. Sanders, "and it would sur prise fastidious persons Who stop at some of our first class hotels were they to look Into kitchens where food is in prepara- ton for the table,
 Dr. Sanders Is also interested in the passage of a bill to better provide for the transportation of dead bodies.
 Our laws on this subject" said pr, Sanders, need to be reconstructed. Un- der the present law 1t is necessary. If a body is to be shipped from here to Mobile to get a permit from every county through which 1t passes. This is such an in convenience that 1t is rarely ever done. The State Board of Health should be authorized to make the rules and regula- tions."
 Our laws for the suppression of nuisances to public health ned Fecision," added Dr. Sanders. They are at present so intricate that it is q hard matter in many cases to abate them"
 pr. Sanders said these bills would be presented early in the session and he believed they would be passed.
 As he spoke the doctor was joined by Dr. Andrew Jay. the Representative in the lower House from Conecuh County. It is quite probable that Dr. Jay will stand sponsor for one or more of the health bills in the House.
 Other physicians who are members of the House are pr. Williams of Calhoun and, Dr. Johnston Of Russell. In the up- per House. SsnEcor Kennedy of Lauder dale and Senator Hurst of Etowah are practising physicians.
