When the stomach won't work, the whole body
suffers. as every tissue or structure of the
body depends ON the stomach for nourshment
and renewal.
If the stomach is weak, inactive and unable to
properly digest food, it not only subjects the
body to state of chronic semi-starvation or
habitually haf-fed condition that weakens it
and renders it less productive Of accomplishment
and less resistant to disease but it allows of the
absorption of half-dgested, rotting ma terial that
is positive poison to it, and taxes the elm
NATIVE organs to eypel it from the body. Thus
it will be seen that the Inconvenience and dis
tress the disturbed rest, the horrors Of insomnia
aud the dreadful caprices of nightmare, the
most insignificant part Of indigestion, and that
real danger turks behind the condition.
Few people seem to realize the dangers Of
weak, defective and disordered digestion. Health
reports do not give 1t Of death be-

bill to. give the interstate commerce
commission power to make rates sub
ject to the revision of the courts,
James J. Hill, in Chicago yesterday,
said: '"There are not five men in the
world who could make railroad tariffs
forE this entire country that would be
just and equitable. Long before they
had completed a single tariff they all
would have died and commercial con-
ditions would have SO changed as to
make their work utterly without avail.
1.-THE question of railway rates has
reached the point where they must
necessarily be advanced unless the
railway homogeneous can discover
new methods of economy in trans
portation. In the main T believe we
have reached the limit of economy as
we'll as in the amount of tonnage. 1t
is plain, therefore, that the price of
materials and wages will have to be
reduced or railway freights will have
to be advanced. The rates are about
40 per cent of what they are in
Europe, while wages are from two and
one-half to four times as high as in
Europe. The only alternative to an
advance in rates is an increase in tom
mage, and 1 cannot see how this is to
be done unless we can create new
markets for our products"

WHAT'S AT ALTON
Explanation of Present Push Is Not
Forthcoming.

Explanation Of Present Push Is Not
Forthcoming.
Special to The Journal,
New York, Dec. 1O.-The steady
rise of Alton stock in the Wall street
market still lacks official explanation.
Those on the inside think the explana-
ton will not be forthcoming for some
little time and that it will come as
a surprise when the time arrives. The
stock is deservedly unpopular with
Wall street traders. There Is a cur
rent maxim on the street that specu-
lation in this stock never made money
for any one but the man that made
the market The reason is simply
that it is little stock which has al
ways been handled by very big men.
The big men, as usual, made the
money and the smaller Spectator had
hardly a show for his money,
The same thing will prove to be true
in this case whether the move is
merely speculative Or not. Mr.. Har-
riman. who is supposed to preside over
the destinies Of the road seldom is gen.
with the traders who make the market
Messrs. Hawley and Yoakum are this
time without doubt acting with the
full concurrence and assistance Of e.
H. Hartman. Mr.. Hawley is Har-
rl1ndu ulTeClOF- anu mas Deen an OIL
cial. Mr.. Yoakum is a strong per-
sonal friend of Mr.. Hartman and is
associated with Rock Island, whose
friendly interest with Hartman will
not be disturbed by any deal he may
make.
The gist of the matter is that those
on the inside say Alton is certain to
cross 40 and is not unlikely to go to
so; while the outside public takes no
interest whatever in the matter, appar-
emily content to let Alton go where it
pleaseS.

move was necessary because the road
hadn't the equipment to make the

and other track improvements were
made along the river bank, it was
almost impossible to use the heavy
motive equipment which has now
been secured from the Baldwin Lo-

Now that the Legislature of
Colorado has assembled, it should.
without regard to politics, make
ample provisions for the State
School of Mines, at Golden. The
institution is without peer in the
United States, and deserves at the
hands of the Legislators the most
liberal treatment. Mining is the
foundation of the state, and the
school in equipping the youth of
Colorado for that career, should be
indorsed in the most substantial
manner by the representatives, of the
people. New buildings should be
erected and revenue provided that
it may add vastly to its facilities and
methods. That this step should
be taken is admitted by all, and
that such universal demand has
been made for the proper recogni-
ton of the school is the best proof
of the plain duty of the Legislature
in the premises-Ores and Metals.

Governor Peabody's inaugural
address is as whole very crafty
ing. He takes hold of the impor-
tant questions now before the state,
in manner that is clear, direct
and forcible. His opinions are
formed, and his statements are by
no means evasive. He evidently
knows what he believes, and does
not hesitate to make his beliefs
known. Although lacking in ex-
perience in political affairs, the
message shows no lack of knowl-
edge of the needs of the state, but
rather a knowledge which could
not come except Ivy careful pains
taking study of present conditions.
The address is nom -partisan-the
Governor commerds heartily, the
good he finds in the work of the
fusion legislators. Neither is
the message of our state ex-
ecutive made up of oratory-every
sentence shows interest in the sub
iect, and every utterance, earnest
ness, enthusiasm, and careful
thought. The recommendations,
almost without exception, meet the
approval of the people who elected
Mr.. Peabody, and, in fact, of the
people of the state in general.
His thought that the state needs a
resting spell-a time in which to
test the laws enacted during the
past few years, is a good one. His
recommendation in regard to Juve-
nile courts cannot fail to be ap-
proved by all thinking persons.
No part of the message is of great
er Importance than that in which
he advises the utilizing of convict
labor for the completion of the IT.
rigation system which may mean so
much to the state. Space does not
permit a review of all the recon-
mendations, nor even mention OF
most of them. The message as a
Whole has wholesome ring, and
Colorado expects much of the man
who penned it. In many ways,
Governor Peabody reminds US of
Theodore Roosevelt. Both are men
of strong convictions. Both are
also thinkers, and not only thinkers,
but workers, as well.

We have often thought that
there must be great danger of con-
tagious diseases from sleeping in
Pullman cars. The st. Louis
Globe Democrat recently spoke of
the fact and says that the railroads
would be gamers if they would post
certificates showing that all bed
ding is thoroughly cleaned and dis
infected after each trip. A woman
interested in the subject says that
she saw tuberculosis patient car
ried out of a Pullman berth, at a
way station, and the porter simply
put on clean sheets and pillows,
leaving the blankets and other bed
ding rs it was. There are no
doubt many persons who would
patronize the Pullman car, if ii
were not for the dangers spoken OF
above, who now prefer to sit up in
"a coach, while travelling.
