Proof of it in Ottumwa.
E. G. Bradley, of 531 South Davis

one that does all that is claimed for it,
deserves the endorsement of the pub
lie, and those suffering should be made
acquainted with it-such m edicine is
Doan's Kidney Pills. l base my opin-
ion on the following experience: am
one of the Oldest men in Ottumwa and
suffered for years with kidney COM
plant, two conditions which almost
preclude the possibility of help, yet
Doan's Kidney Pills brought me much
sought relief. Across my loins and in
and through the kidneys the twinges
and constant pain were so excruciating
that l have been unable to walk VIII
out support and if trouble with the kid
ney secretions added to backache is
any indication of Bright's disease, then
/ had a touch of it. l procured Doan.s
Kidney Pills at Will l.. Sargent's drug
store, corner Market and Main. Much
to my surprise and more to my gratifi-
cation, they went right to the source
|of the trouble and as l continued the
treatment relief which l never ex-
pected was received. Any preparation
which acted as Doan's Kidney Pills not
only deserves my emphatic support,
but it will certainly receive it,"

A SENSATION U
BY M'ClJMBER
NORTH DAKOTA SENATOR
u ON GRAIN INSPECTION
lie Made Some Sensational Charges
Against the Big Elevator Interests
OF the Northwest in q Speech ON His
Grain Inspection Bill. .... Ms l.. ,.a.

81 Washington, March 3I.-Sensational
icharges were made in the senate by
MIR. McCumber OF North Dakota, who,
IN urging the passage of his bill for a
federal commission TO grade wheat,
made statements rejecting seriously on
lthe operators Of grain elevators in all
the cities ofthe northwest.
7 He said the farmer was being rob-
bed OF millions of dollars every year by
the elevator men by false inspection
and grading of wheat ~, T.. ~.
B Specific instances were cited where
grain came in as having low grade or
Eno grade at all and went out of the
Elevator as No. northern. The farm
Ger was paid for cheap, low grade
wheat, and the buyer paid for the best
|on the market. E@:~ ,i#t..
4 He charged that the official record
|pf the elevators at Duluth and Super
Dor would show that during the past
ten years 26,866, 600 bushels more wheat
went ont of the elevators than came in.
This, he said, was simply dishonest
weighing. and by it the growers of the
|grain had been robbed of $4,000, goo
& One elevator at Superior was shown
TO have made clear profit of $780,
|ooo in one month by manipulation oi
the grading of wheat. 81 ~. -
E Letters were read from agricultural
college presidents, exposing and de.
|nouncing the present system as child
lish. 7t~ RI ~
4 Senator McCumber has not much
hope that he can secure the passage oil
/ the bill, but he hopes to get it started
SO that it will come to vote next
winter. The bill has been denounced
by the Grain Dealers Association
made tip OF the allied elevator interests

SAW THE OIL WELL.
Commercial club Committee Had an En-
joyable outing Yesterday.

The committee appointed by the
Commercial club to visit the oil and
gas regions OF Pennington had very
pleasant outing yesterday and the WIS.,
itors saw the drilling machinery In OPP
Grafton. Supt, Rumbaugh, while he felt
somewhat disappointed In not being
able to arrange for natural gas blow
out or an oil gusher did his best 10
entertain the guests. While the COM
mittee was on the ground the drill
made rapid headway and in four hours
time II sank about 80 feet, through a
black sand formation.
Mr. Rumbauglf Is still using S-inch
pipe. None was put down, however, yes
terday owing 10 the fact that the sup
ply had become exhausted, but a car
load was expected to arrive at Farm
ington last night. Al noon the drill was
about 10 feet below the casing. No one
employed around the derrick seemed to
know what depth the drill had reached;
but that Is one OF the things being kept
secret at present.
The committee made the trip TO the
well over the Rio Grande Western, II
having been arranged to stop the train
at convenient point for the accommo-
dalton OF the passengers, who numbered
49, Among those who made the trip
were s. " Shelp. John Q. Critchlow,

ALICE ANNUAL REPORT.
Mine Was Operated az Loss Last Year
-Supt. Buxlo Hopeful.

The annual report OF the Alice Gold
and silver Mining company, operating
at Butte, has been made public.
The statement OF President M. ii,
Walker shows that the expenditures
exceeded the receipts during the past
year to the amount OF {5.303.O3, and that
the total indebtedness Jan. last was
SS,73O.72.
The report OF Supt, Buzzo, however,
gives some encouragement.
I'VE have given considerable atten-
ton during the past three years to the
treatment OF the complex zinclferous
Cres In the Alice and other mines be-
longing 10 the company, OF which there
are large quantities extending as deep
as the lowest workings have reached.
These ores commence at about 300 feet
from the surface and on the 400 level
Of the Alice mine average IL per cent
zinu per cent lead. 3 per cent iron,
per cent copper, 1904 SILICA, 5 ounces
silver and $l,60 per ton In gold,
Various methods OF treatment have
been tried, particularly wet concen-
tration and magnetic separation, but
the losses attending thereto have thus
far interfered with satisfactory re-
suits,
In addition to our working tests,
We shipped 200 tons to the best
equipped mills in Colorado and Utah,
where II was treated with the utmost
care, From these and all other tests
made II Is manifest that II the ore car
ried a higher percentage Of lead the
outcome would have shown profit
above all expenses,
In this connection II may be well
to state that recent prospecting on the
GO level In the Alice mine disclosed
the average per cent OF lead In the
vein to be l3ls as against per cent,
and zinc 20 per cent as against II
per cent. on the 400 level. Should this
ratio of increase continue TO the 200
level (Which IL under water) the pro-
perty could, without doubt, be worked
upon large scale probably. In that
case the 80. stamp mill, which has re-
manned intact since it's closing down
oct /, 1899, could be utilized for q con-
centrptlon plant. and the White-H Howell
roasters, even brought Into service to
aid In extracting the iron from the zinc.
From the closest observations
have been able to make, II IL evident
TO me that at depth the company pos
sesses n lead-zinc mine bearing also
copper, silver and gold susceptible &c
treatment by concentration and mag
netic separation, requiring only 70 bt
| worked upon a generous scale TO pay
handsomely. And, were the mine
| pumped out to the 1000 level, and the
| great sulphide ore body attacked on the
different levels from the 800 to the / 600
| firmly believe the foregoing results
would be attained"
