The curse Of drunkenness is the beset-
ting sin Of the land. The demon Of In
temperance makes no discrimination in
his victims, striking down rich and poor
alike and blighting the lives OF millions
every year.
Many a young man OF brightest promise
and greatest mental and physical gifts
has found the dishonored grave OF a drunk
ard, instead Of the honorable place in So
ciety for which his attainments would have
fitted him, and to which his station in life
would have entitled him.
In days gone by II was thought that a
drunkard was a drunkard merely because
he wished to be 90, the popular opinion
being that any man could stop drinking II
he would only exert SUFFICIENT will power.
The medical profession have long since
recognized the fallacy OF attempting to
cure a drunksrd Of his Incorporate habits
by moral ~suasion. 1t has been for years
a wellknown. medical fact that continued
Indulgence in alcoholic stimulants causes
the stomach and digestive organs to be-
come diseased. Physicians will tell you,
therefore. that in the vast majority OF
cases habitual drunkenness is a physical
disease, requiring physical treatment.
This is far too practical an age for
faith cure" fallacies. 1t will not now
be commended by many sane persons that
organic diseases can be cured by mental
processes.
The secret Of the proper way to treat
the abnormal craving for drink has been
discovered by a chemist Of many years
standing, and after thorough test, during
which 1t has demonstrated that It never
fails to perform its mission. a preparation
has been placed on the market which will

Great western Let's Contracts.

wickham Brothers of this city have been
awarded the contract for the construction
OF the Great Westerns freight depot which
will be erected on Ninth avenue between
Sixth and Seventh streets. The building
will cost $35, 900. The same firm has the
contract for the construction of the round
house and attendant buildings.
Bids for the passenger depot are to be
in by February 20. 1t had originally been
intended to locate the passenger depot on
Ninth avenue, just east of Main street,
hut it has now been decided to place it at
or near the southwest corner of Ninth
avenue and Main street. The reason fer this
change is that trains stopping at the sta
ton would have blocked Fourth street II
the depot was placed on the east side OF
Main street.

cation Take Exceptions to
His Criticisms.

Member German, at the meeting Of the
Board Of Education last night, aroused the
ire OF several of the older members by ac-
cusing them OF neglecting their duties in
failing to visit the schools. He offered a
long list Of amendments to the rules and
regulations governing the board and in
sisted that a committee be appointed whose
sole business shall be to make regular Wis
its to the several schools. This prompted
Iember Hess to make a vigorous protest
against Mr.. Germans insinuations. Super
intendent Clifford also contradicted some
Of the assertions made by Mr.. German.
President Sargent also protested against
Mr.. Germans criticism Of the members OF
the board and called his attention to the
fact that the schools of Council Bluffs

DIES MONIES, Feb. 17.-(Special)-Mem
bers Of the state executive council and Of
the State Board Of Control have arranged
for a meeting at Glenwood next Saturday
with Mr.. Howard, right-of-way agent for
the Burlington railroad, and other officials.
The meeting is or the purpose of modify
ing or changing the contract entered into
between the state and the company with
reference to a right-of-way through state
property in connection with the Institution
for the Predetermined at Glenwood. The
Burlington desires to go through the state
property in order to straighten it's track
and save some heavy grades. The legis-
lature passed an act allowing the company
the right OF way through the grounds pro-
vided the route should be approved by the
executive council on terms to be fixed by
the council. A contract was entered into
by the council and the company in regard
to the matter, and it was supposed hat
he matter was all settled. 1t is now
learned that SOM changes in this are de-
sired by the company, and the route will
be slightly changed from that approved by
the council. Hence a meeting will be held
SATURDAY to modify the contract. Messrs.
Gilbertsou. Carroll and Martin Of the coun-
Gil will go, and Messrs. Cownie and Kline
of the board. II is understood the work of
changing the route is to be commenced at
Glenwood early in the spring.
County iIditOr Exonerated.
Ex-County Auditor G. w. Wander wilt
of Marion county was today acquitted OF the
charge of tampering with the election re-
turns. He was a candidate to succeed him
self, and his republican opponent was
found, on the face of the returns as unofi-
cially made, to be elected by a small plu-
rality. When the books were opened it
was found some one had changed the fig
ures, and in two townships made a sufi-
cient change so as to give Wander wilt the
election. Inasmuch as he was custodian of
the books he was indicted. The contest
for the Office resulted in the republican be-
ing seated. But a jury today. after a long
trial, found Wander wilt not guilty. He is
yet to be tried on another charge in con
nection with this same matter.

periments last summer we're not entirely
satisfying TO the college people, and it is
proposed that the present series shall cover
the whole ground completely. The expert

IndianOIa Dose for Erum
Il Dat

The Treasury Department has refused to
pass the personal accounts Of DR.. Crum as
collector OF this port and he Will not be per.
mitted to draw any pay from the government
unless and until his nomination by the
President is confirm led by the Senate. Sc
the colored favorite of the President may
serve his government and wear an officia
title, but for nearly year. at least, he may
draw nothing from It's Golfers in remunera-
tion for his services. The door OF hope IL
open. but the cash draYer Is closed.
The Treasury Department takes It's stand
on section l,76l, OF the revised statutes, as
follows:
No money shall be paid from the treasury
as salary, to any persons appointed during
the recess OF the Senate to Il a vacancy In
any existing office, II the vacancy existed
while the Senate was In session, and as by
law required to be filled by and with the
advice and consent OF the Senate, until such
appointment has been confirmed by the
Senate.
THIS seems to apply to Crum exactly and
yet IL seems TO be an unusual and II may be
an unprecedented application Of the statute
Certainly the law has not been of general
knowledge and there must have been some
very close searching after 1t In the Treasury
Department before 1t was developed. How
ever 1t is there and and II seems to fit the
case to which IL has been applied.
