Railroad Commission Instructs Railroads
In State to File Them.
All railroads Of the state have been
cited by the railroad commission to file
within twenty days tariffs on coal and
lumber between given points in the state
and to show cause why the rates shall not
be reduced. The commission was prompt
ed to this act by the case OF Henry
K1auser, a merchant Of Litchfleld, against
the Great Northern. Mr.. Klauser In his
complaint protested that the rates charged
by the Great Northern between Duluth
and JLitchfield, and st. Paul or Mime
apoiis and Litchf1eld, were exorbitant and
unreasonable and asked that they be re-
duced. ~. .- 49,
The, Great Northern filed a statement
that Its route between the points named
ran into Wisconsin and then back to Min
nesota. making the traffic interstate and
beyond the jurisdiction of the state COM
mission. This phase has not been taken
up by the commission, but when the com
plaint came up yesterday it was decided
that any change in the rates specified in
the complaint must necessarily involve the
complete tariffs of all the railroads in the
state on coal and lumber between points
within the state, and therefore that any

INFLUENZA AGAIN.
ANOTHER EPIDEMIC OF THE
GRIP is ANTICIPATED.
Many Cases Reported Already In This Par,
OF the country-A Common. sense
Remedy for the Disease and u:
Its Effects.

Owing to the climatic conditions this
year many physicians fear another epi-
dennic Of the grip, that form Of influenza
which so many have. cause to remember.
In some cases this disease has run its
course with but little, more severity than
a. hard cold, In others it has caused acute
sickness. In nearly every case it has left
a: train of after-effects more. trouble
some than the disease itself. 1t is char
acteristic Of the grip that ordinary medi-
cines will not cure It. permanently. The
patient seems to have recovered and then
suffers relapse more severe than the
first attack. The trouble in such cases
is that the disease, was not thoroughly
eradicated4 from the system by the treat
ment employed.
Miss G. A. Peck of No. 633 East Four
teenth street, Minneapolis, Mimi, had a
very severe attack of grip in 1889, and 1t
left her prostrated. "I could not get over
that feeling Of utter exhaustion = she
says, II had no ambition to do anything
and any little exertion made me out OF
breath and tired out. I grew thin, nerv-
Gus and irritable. Then decided to try
DR.. Williams, Pink Pills for Pale People
and the first box made me feel better
Four boxes restored me to my natural
good health
The. after effects Of the grip are often
worse than the disease and many times
they BATTLE all efforts of the best, physi-
clans to drive them out Of the system
Health is shattered--the blood becomes
poor, the flesh falls away, the sufferer
grows nervous and irritable, and even
slight exertion causes shortness OF breath.
These are dangerous symptoms and indi-
cate that the system is in a state that
invites pneumonia. bronchitis or even con
sumption. DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People will quickly restore the health
after an attack Of grip and expel the
lingering germs, and, working through the
blood. will render the system proof against
the disease. Or. Williams, Pink Pills for
Pale People may be had of all druggists

Roosegard Bisschop, general agent OF
the Java China III pan Steamship company
a new Dutch line between the Dutch East

each, plying between Batavia, Samarang,
Seorabia, Macassar and the ports of Hong
kong, Shanghai, Kobe and Yokohama
These ships will deliver the products at
Chinese or Japanese ports to steamers OF
lines allied with the railways which will
carry them to the America.
