A strucoIe for Life.

Eagle River, Mo-, Jan. 19th.-Maggie
E. Decker, a Woodworking woman 40
years of age, whose home is here, has
just gone through thrilling battle for
her life. Many another would have
lain down and died, for for twelve long
years she has suffered the most awful
pains.
She had Kidney Trouble and Rheu-
matism, combined with a very dis
tressing stomach trouble. At last she
got SO bad that she could not sleep,
for she ached all over, and was SO
lame that she could scarcely walk.
She spent over a hundred dollars In
different medicines, but only to be dis
appointed, for everything failed to help
her.
At last, however, just when she was
beginning to despair of ever finding g
remedy, she heard of Dodd's Kidney
Pills and bought six boxes. She says:
Now l can eat well, sleep well. and
am feeling splendid. God bless Dodd's
Kidney Pills, for they saved my life.
My troubles were many, but Dodd's
Kidney Pills cured ne completely.
But for them l surely would have

producing numerous witnesses to prove
that the miners union is responsible
for the alleged restriction of the hard
coal production.
The majority of the witnesses were
mine foremen who testified the union
was detrimental to discipline at the
collieries, that mining is a compare
lively healthy occupation, and to acts
of lawlessness committed during the
recent strike. William Zorn, a contract
miner, testified that he had been pre-
vented by the union from performing
a certain contract, the driver refusing
to furnish him with sufficient num-
Der of cars

TROOPS MAY Be SENT OUT.
To Settle The Matter Of Fencing
Government Lands.
AS WAS DONE BY CLEVELAND

Washington, Jan. 15.-President
Roosevelt and Secretary Hitchcock, of
the interior, are said to be considering
the advisability of ordering out the
military forces of the United States to
enforce the law against unlawful
fencing of public lands in Nebraska,
Kansas, New Mexico. Wyoming, Mon
tana and other Western states, and to
eject the cattle barons, now holding
millions of acres of the public domain
in violation of the act of congress
passed in February, 1855. 1t is under
stood that the troops may be ordered
out at any time.
The law has been a dead letter since
about four years after it was passed.
Colonel Mosby. special agent of the
general land Office, who has been pro-
ceeding against the cattle kings of
Nebraska, has been in Washington for
some time in connection with the vari-
Gus cases now before the courts.
Major Robert w. Hunter, an inspec-
tor in the public land service during
the first administration of President
Cleveland, and who secured an order
from the executive calling out United
States troops in New Mexico in 1885,
recently expressed the belief that not
until military force is used will the
government succeed in its effort to
secure the removal Of illegal fences on
public lands.
Major Hunter relates the result of
the call for troops in 1885. He says:
"An agreement was reached in which
the cattlemen were to pay all the co5ts
of the prosecutions which had been
begun and take. down all the fences,
with the understanding that proceed
ings against them would be dropped
when proof was furnished that all the
fences were down. Ex-senator stephen
W. Dorsey was then practicing law,
and it was upon his advice that the
cattlemen surrendered.
