LINE TO SAN DIEGO.
Rock Island Said TO Have Made
Surveys from Benson.

Reports are again current that the
Rock Island has determined to build a
line of its own to the Pacific coast.
Surveys have been made lately which
indicate that it is the intention to start
the new extension from either Benson
or Douglas. on the line Of the Ell Paso
& Northeastern road. and build it
through to San Diego. Cal. From San
Diego the news comes that the pro-
moters of the local enterprise seeking
for direct outlet to the east from that
city are working in the interest of the
Rock Island
Ever since the Moore-Leeds- Reid
syndicate obtained control of the Rock
Island system it has been their ex-
pressed ambition to esta blish a trans
continental line The Rock Island now
extends to Ell Paso and has a subsidiary
line from Ell Paso, via Douglas, to Ben
son. on the main line of the Southern
Pacific.
The proposed line from Douglas to
San Diego would run through a region
that offers few difficulties in the way
of railroad construction. The extern
sion. it is said. could be constructed
cheaply and would open to traffic a
large and productive region.

SIXTH DISTRICT NOTES.

George Lawless, editor of the Saint

a former deputy sheriff of Cheyenne

one of the local papers in Phillips
burg intimates that John O. Royce is

not? He was reelected chairman of

that he would make splendid congress

ONLY A SUGGESTION.
But 1t Has Proven of Interest and
Value to Thousands.

Common sense would suggest that if
one wishes to become fieshy and plump
it can only result from the food we eat
and digest and that food should be
eggs, beefsteak and cereals; in other
words the kinds of food that make
flesh are the foods which form the
greater part of our daily bills of fare.
But the trouble is that while we eat
enough and generally too much, the
stomach, from abuse and overwork,
does not properly digest and assimilate
it, which is the reason so many people
remain thin and under weight; the d1-
gestiye organs do not completely digest
the flesh forming beefsteak and eggs
and similar wholesome food.
There are thousands of such who are
really confirmed dyspeptics, although
they may have no particular pain or
inconvenience from their stomachs.
If such. persons would lay their
prejudices aside and make a regular
practice of taking. after each meal
one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's the food would be quickly and
thoroughly digested, because these tab
diastase which every weak stomach
lacks, and by supplying this want the
stomach is soon enabled to regain it's
natural tone and vigor.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digest ev-
cry form of flesh forming food, meat,
CS50s ~ OeAI anu PObe1tOSS, eAAAA Ills Ia
the reason they so quickly build up,
strengthen and invigorate thin, dyspep-
tic men, women and children.
Invalids and children, even the most
delicate, use them with marked benefit
as they contain no strong, Irritating
drugs, no cathartic nor any harmful in
gredient.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
most successful and most widely known
of any remedy for stomach troubles be-
cause it is the most reasonable and
scientific of modern medicines.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by every druggist in the United States
and Canada as well as in Great Brit
ain. at so cents for complete treat
ment.
Nothing further is required to cure
any stomach trouble or to make thin,
nervous dyspeptic people strong, plump
and well.

until further orders. eight hours would
constitute a day. These departments
have been working on basis of ten
hours since the first of March, the time
during the winter months was nine

said to be a. decrease in the business of
these departments, as well as the re-
trenchment policy of the company. The
machinists who draw good pay say they
have no kick coming, but the apprentices
and helpers feel the cut of two hours
pay each day, as their compensation for
ten hours work ranges from 81. 25 to $50

During the Buffalo exposition it was
said that the passes issued by the rail-
roads operating into that city exceeded
the number of regular tickets sold. In
one instance one of the prominent lines
sent out orders to curtail the pass privi
lege or that special trains for their
benefit would be necessary. The scheme
is to sell tickets to employees into st.
