Wheeling, w. Va, May 20, 1908.
Ihad Nasal Catarrh for years for which I
used S. SIS. with very gratifying results.
I tried local applications for some time,
and getting no permanent relief I came to
the conclusion that the seat of the trouble
was in the blood. Knowing S. S. S. to be
a good blood medicine began its use,
and after using it for some little while it
did away entirely with the offensive mu-
Gus in the nostrils, and did not have to
hawk and spit, especially in the morning,
to dislodge the catarrhal matter.

now it is fair and warmer weather.
From central Minnesota north and
west are fields of wheat in various
stages of maturity that need four, five,
six or ten days of good ripening
weather to finish them. Some of these
fields show rust, and 1t is to be eX-
pected that warm weather will spread
it, but what is done cannot, be- undone,
and the quickerSthe Wheat turns ripe
the less will be the damage.
Farther up in North Dakota and in
parts of the west central and north
western valley, along the Red river
are fields that are backward, some
even so late that full maturity cannot
be reached before twenty days. This
is where the frost will catch the wheat
if it comes early.

ASSAILS THOMAS SHEVLIN
ATTORNEY JACKSON BEGINS
CLOSING ARGUMENT FOR
PLAINTIFF IN BROTHERS
. SUIT. =.

+, A. B. Jackson, attorney for e. G.
Shevlin in the brother-against-b brother
suit, began his closing argument be-
fore Judge Simpson this morning.
Counsel made several caustic illusions
to the defendants, methods, of trans
acting business and closed his morn
ing's talk by saying:
"And the defendants case is moth
ing but an effort to Shield him and
cover UP a transaction Of which
Thomas Shevlin is more ashamed than
Of many others in his life which it
gives him little pleasure to recall
Thomas Shevlin, for the first time
since the opening of the court, weeks
ago, was absent from the courtroom.
The other principals and all the at
torneys We're present and listened in
tently to Mr.. .Jackson's argument.
During most of the forenoon coun-
sci directed the courts attention to
the evidence Of various witnesses as
to the real value Of the disputed stock
at the time the defendant secured 1t
from his brother for $4,000. He read
evidence to show that this valuation
was known to be unfair and stated
that, according to the evidence Of the
defendant himself, there belonged to
the companies at the time of transfer
over 329,O00,000 feet Of timber, and
that the least estimate that could be
honestly made on the value of e. G.
Shevlin's stock was 100000
Arguments will be finished and the
case submitted to the court tomorrow

VAN SAINT MAY
SAY SOMETHING
GOVERNOR FAVoRs CHANGE IN
INSURANCE LAWS.
Commissioner Has Taken In $50, 900
for Examinations, and Companies
Charge That Large Share of This
Is ..Velvet''-New Law May Turn
Such Fees Into State Treasury.

1t is reported at the capitol that
one Of the strong features Of Governor.
Van SAINTS message to the legislature
will be recommendation for a
change in the insurance law by which
fees are now collected for examina-
lions. 4y
This law exacts fee from the
companies whenever an examination
is made by the department, amounts
ing to 1 cent on every thousand dol
lars Of business written. In the case
of one large life company this is said
to have amounted to $4,000. From
the insurance commissioner the gov
ernor has learned that receipts from
this source in the last four years have
amounted to $4,000. The law does
not require them to be paid to the
state treasury, but to the commits
sioner for defraying the cost of ex-
aminations. Mr.. Dearth says that the
entire amount is paid out for the ex-
penses and compensation of the ac-
tuaries who do the work. This is dis
puted by the insurance men, who
claim that large share goes into the
commissioners pocket, making the
office more remunerative than the oil
inspectorship in It's palrny days
1t is understood that the governor
will recommend that these fees be
paid into the state treasury, as the oil
inspection fees now are.

This move on the part OF certain
members Of the bar to pick out the

field Of judicial candidates has called
forth a variety Of opinions from mem
bers Of the bench and bar and from
the candidates themselves.
Tt is grave question in my mind
whether this move is wise one,
said a member Of the bench this
morning. OF course, the lawyers are
qualified to select the men who would
make the best Judges Admit, then,
for the purpose Of argument, that the
meeting Is held and the best cand1-
dates Endorsed. There would then
undoubtedly be a feeling among the
unindorsed candidates that the selec--
ton was unfair. These men would
continue in the field and their friends
would work all the harder.
The mass Of voters do not like to
be dictated to by anyone, and would
they not think this action was an at
tempt on the part Of the bar to die

PROTEST AGAINST QUARRY
Tenth Ward Residents Seek to Abolish
Workhouse Industry.
Tenth

Northsiders and particularly Tenth
warders were out in force yesterday at
ternoon to explain to the aldermen why
the city council should lend a hand in
abolishing the workhouse quarry. Nearly
all the rock has been taken from the old
quarry on Lyndale avenue, and residents
in the Camden place district had hoped
that the quarry nuisance would soon
cease but recently the board of charities
and corrections bought another stone
bearing tract Of land nearby for 81, 100 in
order to continue quarrying.
Residents in the vicinity object to the
maintenance Of the quarry on the general
ground that it depreciates the value of
real estate and makes that section Of the
city an undesirable place in which to live.
Moreover when the rock has been re-
mored there is only big hole below the
grade Of the streets which is unsfghtly
and almost worthless.
The aldermen will visit the quarry on
Wednesday, Aug. II, meeting at the Hotel
Nicollet at $50 am. &ts5
