RAILROAD TRAIN BLOWN FROM
G. &S. TRACK NEAR GEORGETOWN

Denver, Feb. "A News special from
Idaho Springs yesterday says;
Just as the morning passenger train
was entering Georgetown at 11:45 this
morning 1t was overthrown by strong
gale. The two coaches and combina-
tion baggage and express car were
overturned, falling on their side on the
south side of the track. There were
about twenty-five people abroad Only
one of them was seriously injured.
J. X. Robinson of Denver, express
messenger, has several ribs broken,
shoulder broken and it is feared that
injuries have been sustained which
will prove fatal.
w. Straight, banker of Dunlap, Kan
sas. a passenger. right hand cut and
bruised by glass bruises and hip in
jured.
wrist and nose badly cut
Pat O'Mara, conductor, scalp wound;
not serious.
A. S. Hurley of Denver, news agent,
scratches on forehead.
Robinson is the only one seriously
injured and has been removed to st.
Joseph hospital.
The physicians say tonight that
Robinson's injuries may prove fatal,
but the injured man is still conscious.
He has not been able to tell how he was
injured, but it is believed from the ma
ture of the wounds he must have been
crushed by heavy trunks. Robinson
is about fifty years of age, and has
been on this run for years.
While all of the coaches and bag
gage cars were overturned. the engine
and tender did not leave the rails. The
accident left the track clear and unin-
jured. but the cars were badly
wrecked.
At the time of the accident the tele-
graph wires were down between
Georgetown and this city. and mes
senger was sent to Lawson, a dista :e
of six miles down Clear Creek. to send
the notification to the railroad officials

would logically follow the claim. by
those interested, that they we're the
proper persons to Judge the amount.
Both proposed laws present two
sided phase, and it will fall to their
originators and supporters to meet the
arguments against them, which will
Coubtless be placed before the public
by the manufacturing companies inter-
csted in their defeat.
Until the arguments from both sides
are presented, we, like the balance OF
the public, would scarcely wish to haz-
ard an opinion as to the fairness, to
say nothing of the need of such reg
ulations
There is little doubt but that certain
mixtures, sold as healing compounds,
need all the publicity which can be
given them and their fraudulent MAX
ers, but 1t must be accepted as a fact
also, that there are both legitimate
medicines and makers under the pro-
lection of patent, and whether or not
they should be required to make pub
lie their business will be a matter to
be determined when their claims are
fully before the people.

Good Roads, But No Graft

There is no doubt that the American
farmer directly and the whole people
indirectly would gain much ny the
stimulus the good roads movement
would receive from a federal appro.
priation sharing with the state half
the cost of new roadways. There is
only one argument against putting this
plan quickly into effect and that is
the danger of opening the way to ex-
travagance in appropriations and graft
in their expenditure. If the Amerl-
can people could have assurance, not
to say insurance, against turning the
plan to the advantage of reckless leg
islators and corrupt contractors, they
would quickly order 1t carried out.
They want no more river and harbor
grabs or public buildings steals or
rural free delivery plunder. There
are plenty of arguments against open
ing the treasury door to that kind of
graft. But there is no argument
against good roads.-New York Press

his pet candidates for the legislature

passed this winter Mark was ready
to make any promise in order to Sc
cure his own return to the United

he cannot control the crowd that he

are insisting on doing as they please.
Their obligation to Hanna ceased when
they elected him. Now they have in
{. .oduced bill asking for ward oprion
and other temperance reforms. The
measure has lot of friends and It
looks like hard fight to down the
bill. Cox and Hanna will do all they
can to aid in the killing but repre-
sentatives who have constituents to
answer to are inclined to be stubborn.

From rumors that are in the air, 1t
is possible that Congressman James
Kennedy, of Youngstown. who repre-
sents this district at Washington, may
have opposition for his second term.
The story comes from Columbiana
county that there may be candidate
over there. and If the ball is opened up
let 1t be understood that Stark will
have two or three men after the place,
chief among whom will be the Hon.
James ]. Grant and julius Whiting.
The Republicans of these two counties
have been dissatisfied ever since the
result of the Salem convention was
made known and it will need only a
slight pretext to precipitate a fight
against the Youngstown gentleman.

BILLS IN THE HOUSE

Washington, Feb. 1.-Representa-

bill in the house today giving United
States Circuit courts Jurisdiction in
suits brought under the Sherman Anti
Trust law. The bill makes 1t the duty
of district attorneys to institute pro-
ceedings for all violations of the Sher-
man law. The proceedings can be in
Istitutetd, according the provisions Of
the bill by petitions setting forla the
cause and praying that such violators
shall be enjoined. -
When the parties so complained OF
shall have been notified, the court is
to proceed at once to the hearing of
the case. Pending the hearing or is-
suance of decree, the court is EN-.
powered to make temporary restraint
or prohibition.
Representative McDermott Dem. N.

president to appoint board of arbi-
tratlon to decide disputes between em-
ployers and labor and to make a COM
plete report on all work of such
boards.

Two Sided.

Two bills have been introduced in
the Ohio legislature, seekineg as their
authors claim, to restrict and expose
to public inspection, for the good of
the consuming public, the manufac-
ture of patent medicines.
The first restricts, should il become
a law, the use of alcohol, in the COM
pounding of medicines, to ten per cent
The second spoken of above would re-
quire, as a law, the placing of the ex-
act formula upon each bottle or pack
age sold within the state of Ohio.
There are two sides to such regula-
tions always, and both sides are sus-
ceptible of having placed In their fav-
or strong arguments. To the ordinary
reader the justice of the people know
ing Just what they are taking when
purchasing patent mixture appeals
strongly and will no doubt receive the
strong support Of the physicians at
least. AS regards the other restric-
tions, the feelings upon that will be
largely matter of sentiment and opin-
ion regarding the use of alcohol in any
form.
Yet there is the chance for the claim
upon the other side that the formula
of the manufacturer is his stock in
trade; his protection against an in
fringement of his property and rights,
represented In the result of his knowl-
edge and labor as ii appears in the
article which he is placing upon the
market.
The very allowance OF ten per cent
OF alcohol might be urged as proof
positive that such factor is really need
ed in the makeup of certain medicines,
and then with such acknowledgment

NOT DIVORCED
FROM MAN SHE CALLED
HER HUSBAND.
AN ADVERSE DECISION
Instead of the Favorable
One Expected.

Chicago, Feb. 2.-Believing that she
had been divorced from the man she
thought was her husband, Mrs. Mae
Ora Hood Russell visited the court
house this morning and found that
the decree entered by Judge Tuthill
was not decree of divorce, but an
order dismissing the bill of complaint
rate maintenance.
In addition to this she was surpris
ed to learn that the decree found that
she was not and never mad been the
wife of William L. Russell, president
of the National Consolidated Oil com
pany, against whom she had made
various allegations.
August last, Mrs. Mae o. II. Rus.
sell filed her suit. The allegation on
which the bill was based was deser.
tion. The original complaint was fol.
lowed in October by the filing of an
affidavit by Mrs. Russell in which she
stated that William L. Russell was
possessed Of property worth $780,
900. In the affidavit she also repeated
the allegation of desertion.
December 16 the court awarded her
temporary alimony and granted her
counsel $500 fees.
Counsel for Mr.. Russell appeared in
the case and the matter was taken
before Judge Tuthill Monday after
noon. On the agreement of counsel
for both complainant and defendant
a decree was prepared and signed by
the court finding that that the COM
plainant neither at the time nor in the
place mentioned in her said bill or at
any other time or said place was join.
ed by marriage with the said defend
ant W. l.. Russell and never was his
lawful wife and that the said COM
plainant and said defendant are not
now husband and wife"
Monday evening Mrs. Russell told
some of her friends that she had been
granted a decree of divorce from her
husband. Investigation this morning,
when the decree was spread on rec
ord showed her error. The decree in
stead of being in her favor was
against her.
