THE NEW STATION.

1t is not the "anvil chorus but the
clank of the hammer on the stonecutter's
chisel that makes sweet music, not only
to those who will have their offices in
the new station but to the people of
Island Pond and vicinity. Favored by
fine weather the workmen are making
notable progress and it is now possible
for the general public to form an intelli-
gent idea of what the building will look
like. The foundation walls are built, as
are the basement partition walls, and a
of granite from which the brick walls
will rise. The heating plant will be the
very best, and will be placed in the base
ment, directly under the vestibule, where
the cold air will be nipped on its en-
trance. No detailed description will
now be given in these columns, but as
the work progresses from week to week
such progress will be noted.
NOTES.
Mr.. Spier, of Spier & Rohan, archi.
tects of Detroit, who make speciality OF
railway stations, was in town Monday
and congratulated Mr.. Gibson on the
way the work on the station was being
carried out. And Mr. j. Scott, draughts
man, has been on the work the past
week. He also expresses himself as well
pleased with The way the building il
progressing.

works, neglected to bring his usual
stock of patience from Montreal, anc

This, 1t is believed, would not only
give opportunity for more prompt &C
ton on any pending question Of pol
icy, but facilitate the general work of
congress and lessen the possibility of
disastrous deadlocks.
The desired end might be accom-
plished in this way and it might not.
The average congress would rather talk
politics than do business, and it is pos
sible that If there were more sessions
there would be more talk and even less
business. The way in which really
important business is frequently post
poned until the last day Of session
and then rushed through without prop
er consideration is an exhibition of
congressional tactics hardly likely to
be effected one way or the other by
increasing the number Of sessions. Be-
sides, it may be questioned whether
the country, which would prefer to
have less rather than more congress
ION Its hands," would relish the idea.

Election Squibs.

AS election approaches candidates
for the various town Offices are appear
ing in goodly numbers. So far the Office
of supervisor is being spoken for in
preference to the other Offices.
There are two candidates out for
chairman, Mart Hirzel, the present in
cumbent, and Mat Scherible.
VIM. Persohn, one of the present
board, Walt Bonner, Math. Kramer
Robert Felt, F. G.. Hall and Amos Rad
cliffe are out for supervisor ship.
The office of town clerk is also in for
its share of the sport, at present there
being three candidates in the field SO
far, John Diamond, Fred Mcintyre and
Geo. Steinmetz.
With the exception of Fred Morey,
the present town treasure, no other
candidates have announced themselves
but probably most of the present incum-
bents will be out for reelection.

The Wisconsin Valley in Poetry.

We are in receipt Of a copy of McKay's
Poems, published by Henry J. Mckay
of Wausau. The poems are the result
of several years of intermittent toll on
the part of Mr. Mckay, and the theme
of each poem is based on the wonders
and beauties of nature lying at our very
doors, and the strivings of the spirit
within the author as he felt their in
Iuence upon his thought and life. In
the early days of busy pioneer
life there was little time for poetical
Inspiration, and it was left to the pen
Of later generation to bring forth in
poetical phrases the thoughts and
scenes which remain as pleasing rem
entrances. Kr. McKay's little book
has more that fulfilled this mission. It
is full of sparkling wit, pathos, and dis
criptive verses that display the beauty
and granduer of the noble Wisconsin
river as only the pen of born poet can
describe, and should be in the library
of all lovers of natures beauty spot.

Penalties for Destroying Government
Corners.

Mr.. Editor: Perhaps the folio wing
will interest some of your subscribers.
To aid in the protection of all evid-
/ ences of public land surveys, the fol-
lowing law was enacted as a clause in
chapter 39S, 20 United States Statutes,
page 343, which was approved June 10,
1896: Provided further, that hereafter
| it shall be unlawful for any person to
destroy, deface, change, orremove to
another place, any section corner, or
meander post, or any Government line
OF survey, OR to down any witness
tree, or any tree blazed to mark the
| line OF Government survey, Or to de
face. change or remove any monument
or bench marks of any Government sur
vey.
That any person who shall offend
against any of the provisions of this
! paragraph shall be deemed guilty of a
| mlsdemeanOr, and upon convictions
thereof in any court shall be fined not
exceeding two hundred and fifty dollars
or be imprisoned not more than one
hundred days.
All the fines accruing under this par
agraph shall be paid into the treasury,
and the informer in each case of con-
viction shall be paid the sum of twenty
five dollars.
Sometime it is necessary to cut down
witness tree or bearing tree for saw
logs or other purposes. If cut
above the marks on the stumps, | think
the law would not be broken. Many
times the stump would last longer than
the tree. The tree is likely to be
blown down if left standing alone.
Sometimes it is necessary to grub out
a bearing tree or witness tree-as in
making a road.
In that case, if the person grubbing
out such a tree would get the town
Clerk to set marked stone at least two
feet long, in place of the corner stake,
and make a record of the kind and size
of such stone, with mark put on it,
think he would be held blameless. The
ma, may be a cross on the top of the
stone, made with cold chisel or an old
axe. The object of the law is to pre-
serve the corner, and nothing will do
that better than stone with record.
Yours Respectf.

WHY 1T SUCCEEDS
Because It's for One Thing Only, and
 Phoenix Is Learning This.

Nothing can be good for everything
 Doing one thing we'll brings success.
 Doan's Kidney Pills do one thing only.
 They're for sick kidneys.
 They cure backacbe, every kidney ill
 Here is Phoenix evidence to prove 1t.
 L. s. Dunbar, proprietor of the fruit and cigar store, 8 North First avenue residence 576 North Seventh avenue. says: "Doan's Kidney Pills are not a new remedy to me. We first used them in our family several years ago when living in Marietta, Ohio, where they are considered household necessity. They are the finest remedy for backache or any symptoms of irritated or weakened kidneys on the market. Shortly after moving here some three years ago symptoms of a recurrence of kidney trouble in our family became evident. and we tried to get Doan's Kidney Pills at several drug stores. They knew nothing about them and we sent to our druggist, MT. Styer of Marietta for a supply. Noticing them advertised in Phoenix last winter when we required them we procured them at the Brisley Drug Co.'s store. They are necessity in our household. particularly so when compelled to drink the water in Phoe- nix. On every occasion when their use is required they have never failed to bring prompt relief"
