concentrations

All appointments at the state pris.
on under the administration of c. w.
James of Baker City, the superintend.
ent-elect, will be made by the super.
intendent without the Intervention of
the governor.
This annunocement has been made
by Governor Chamberlain. The states
chief executive had for time thought
that he would make suggestions or
recommendation TO the superintend.
ent as 10 the appointments to be made
but he has decided that he will not
so much as make a recommendation
to the head of that institution in the
matter of naming men to fill the var.
ious positions. Governor Chamber.
lain thinks that the superintendent OF
the state penitentiary should be In
complete control of the institution Of
which the latter Is the official head.
The governor will not interfere with
the appointment Of the guards or any
OF the other subordinate officers Of
the prison His relation to the insti.
tuition will be that of Inspector with
the privilege of examining the work
Under this arrangement the superln.
tendent can be held responsible.
He will procede to criticise the sup
erintendent who. being charged with
all power Of appointing his assistants
in the management Of the prison
cannot evade the responsibility
Where discipline constitutes one OF
the principal factors in the manage.
ment Of an institution the governor
holds that there should be an Official
head. In an interview the governor
admitted that where guards are es
pecially fitted and competent for the
stations they now hold, II is possible
that they will be retained under IN,
new administration. But OF cOurs,
! it Is the natural supposition that manl
/ Of the good Republicans now holdlnl
places az the prison VIII be replaced
with members of the minority faith
Among the subordinate positions "a
be filled with the salaries attached
are the following; Bookkeeper, 81,
200; physician. 5000; engineer, 5000;
farmer, $500; commissary, S720; over
seer, $500; nine guards 5000; three
shop guards, S72O; four nightwatch'
men, 5000.
Heretofore these appointments,
while announced by the superintend'
ent as his appointees are generally
known 10 have been made at the sug
gestion or the implied wish Of the
governor. Numerous applications for
appointment To these different posi-
tions have been received by Governor
Chamberlain, who has referred them
all without recommendation 10 Sup

HAVE
HAD THEIR
DAY
Old Fashioned Medicines for
Catarrh no Longer In
Vogue

For many years past the usual
treatment for oatarrh disease was with
local douches. sprays, inhalers and
liquid medicines, comprised principal,
ly Of alcohol, all OF which never cured
but simply gave the temporary relief
and stimulation.
A thorough cure can be made only
by the treatment which removes the
catarrhal poisons from the blood.
A new remedy. which meets the re.
quirements, and which. so far has
been remarkably successful in curing
eatarrh is Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
They can hardly be classed as Sc.
cret patent medicine. as they are com.
posed Of such valuable remedies az
blood root Hydrestln. red gum OF
Eucalyptus tree and similar antlsep-
tics combined in tablet form. which
cure by eliminating from the blood
and mucous membrane the poisons OF

internally allowing them to dissolve

DR.. Bennett states that the intern.

pleasant medicated tablets is rapidly
taking the place of douches and local
applications" and further says that
probably the best. and certainly the
safest remedy at present on the mar.

Tie project was first started few
years ago by A. e. Stillwell. He made
all arrangements to- establish a great
seaport at Port Arthur and made q
freight rate there that was turning
the traffic as he desired. The rate
which he. was able to make was al.
most as cheap as the rate from Iowa
points to Chicago. Instantly he had
the officials Of the three great systems
that penetrate the middle west-the
Rock Island, Northwestern and Mil.
waukee-on top of him. He refused
to accede to their demands to stop
the project which was proving of dire
Importance to them. They finally sue.
ceeded in doing him in the Wall street
market.
Rock Island is Prepared.
It is claimed that the Rock Island
has recognized that the establishment
Of southern shipping point is ineyita'
Bile and that they are preparing for II
by entering the southwestern
field. The rapidity with which
the line has secured short
lines in the southwest the last
year has startled the railroad world
and it is claimed by an official who is
in position to know that it was this
reason. There is tinge of local in
terest in the endeavor to establish q
gulf point for the shipping of the ex.
ports of the west and middle west. A
few years ago, Mr.. Meek, who was
formerly q superintendent of the Mil
waukee in Des Moines, was appointed
superintendent of the Denver and Gal
weston line. He Immediately made ar
rangements for the establishment Of q
shipping point at Galveston. Again
the great triumvirate of railroads cam
to the front and compelled him to give
up the attempt.
The effort that is now being made is
said to be the most formidable yet at
tempted, and the three roads, especial
ly the Northwestern and Milwaukee
lines The Rock Island will soon be in
a position to handle the traffic to the
south as well as to the east.
The Milwaukee and Northwestern
have no resort. They dare not reduce
the rate to Chicago, as the interstate
commerce law does not allow them te
make difference in long and short
hauls. The tariff rate has to be pro
portionate between long and short
hauls.
Owing to the roads east from Chi
cago having heavy business anyhow
they refuse to make any agreement
with the lines turning the shipments
over to them that will allow them {
profit.
The result is being eagerly watched
as it will mean a great boom to the
north and south lines, which have hith
erto been considered as secondary tt
the east and west systems. The open
ing of it will mean the beginning Of
one of the greatest railway wars thai
has ever been witnessed in the west.
