IL that profound secret had been di-
vulged before Mayor Moores assumed
his third-term functions and the new
council made itself comfortable in Its
aldermanic seats. But what of the late
lamented delegation from Douglas
county, that put Omaha in such awful
danger by ill-advised and bungling legis-
lation? Does it not prove conclusiyely
that the anti-machinists are totally unfit
to be machinists?

Portland oregonian.

One of the fruits of the error made at
Chicago in 1896 is to close the door now
against the democratic party in its ambi-
ton to gain the support of the business
world against ~Rooseveiism. But for that
supreme act of folly the country's wealth
might welcome the cleyeland democracy
as the alternative of, antitrust warfare
under Roosevelt. But that act stands and

The Colorado State Board Of Equali-
zation has been hard at work for the
past two weeks on the appraisement of
the tangible property of the railroads
and will not complete its arduous task
until the middle of June. Unlike the
Nebraska board, which is content with
copying the assessment of last year and
trimming the figures up and down the
scale 80 as not to hurt the feelings of
the railroad managers, the Colorado
board delves into the particulars re-
garding the value Of the right Of way,
roadbed,, depot buildings, depot grounds
and improvements at each station as
we'll as the rolling stock and other con-
st1tuents that go to make up the equip
ment of a railroad. Whether the Colo
RADIO board will include in its final as
sessment the full value Of the railroad
franchises has not yet t~ranspired. 1t is
interesting to note, however, that the
railroad tax agents In Colorado are
pointing backward to Nebraska as an
example for Colorado, and the Ne
braska precedent may afford an excuse
for the Colorado boards, If its members
are subject to corporation blandish-
ments.

Wounds by Rusty Nails.

Every little while We read in the pa
pers that some one has stuck rusty
nail in his foot or hand or other portion
of the body and lOckjaw resulted there
from and that the patient died If ev-
cry person were aware Of perfect
remedy for all such wounds and would
apply it then such reports would cease.
The remedy is simple, always on hand
and can be applied by any one, and.
what is better, it is infallible. 1t is
simply to smoke the wound or any
bruise or wound that is intlamed with
burning woolen cloth. Twenty minutes
in the smoke will take the pain out of
the worst case of Inflammation arising
from such wound. People may sneer
at this remedy as much as they please,
but when they are afflicted by such
wounds just let them try it.
