kind of voting machine to be used at cleo
tons were considered by the senate COM
mittee on elections. which met at the
Ryan hotel last night Senator Dunn is
the author OF one and Senator GJertsen OF
the other voting machine measure. Sen
ator Alley, who is a member or the cleo
lions committee championed the GJertsen
bill while Senator Dunn. also on the com
mittee, spoke in behalf OF his own Dill
Inasmuch as each bill specified certain
attachment and apparatus as necessary
to the machine it was designed TO provide
for. II was apparent to the committee
that II either became law II would shut
out all voting machines save the one de-
scribed. Senator Dunn said he was Will
ing to modify his bill so as 10 let in any
machine that could do the work.
The committee finally referred the bills
to Senators Alley and Dunn, VINO VIII en-
deavor to draft compromise measure,
that will meet the requirements OF the
election laws. the idea being TO make the
machine conform to the law and not the
law to fit the particular machine.

TROUBLE is SIGHTED
Trolley Company's $4,000 Gift
May Start Bad Mixup

What viii be done with the $50. 900
which the street railway company con-
tr1outed TO the city by the terms of the
compromise agreement, to be used for the
widening of Sibley street or for building a
pavilion at Como?
The assembly, at a meeting held Mon
DAY, expressed preference for using this
fund Tor the Sfbley street Improvement
Commissioners Murphy of the board of
pubic works stated yesterday that to
widen Sfbley street as proposed will cost
10000. This will leave $40, 600 to be pro-
flied
The plan for assessing property to
which some benefit would accrue but not
adjacent TO the improvement to be made
has been considered as not feasible The
matter then revolves itself into a ques-
ton OF assessing the actual property
touched by the widening of the street
This VIII probably entail an expense on
each lot of from 81 600 up to 100000
While the proposition has not assumed
SUCH form as yet as to call for an opinion
from the property owners il is confidently
expected that decided opposition to the
assessment VIII be made.
Ihere is q large element In the city
which would prefer to see the pavilion
built at Como. II they are reinforced by
the property owners who may object to
the widening of Sibley street. a pretty
tangie will result from the $4,000 gift.

BURT is WELL KNOWN
IN SANITY CITY
Probable Head of Isthmian
Commission Once General
Manager of Omaha

horace Greeley Burt, who will prob
ably be named by President Roosevelt
as mead of the isthmian canal commits
SION, was at one time a resident of St.
Paul and is well known to every rail-
road official of the Twin Cities and the
west generally.
he was general manager of the Chi
cago, ST Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha
In 1896 and was stationed here until
mis- election as president OF the Union
racine. He has made engineering the
feature or his. work and is accounted
one OF the best engineers In the coun-
try.
Mr.. Roosevelt has made no secret of
the fact that he is looking for q 800,
vOO man and * is generally understood
that he has selected Mr.. Burt for the
Dig job. Roosevelt is much dissatisfied
with the present commission and ac-
cordlng to reports has declared that he
wants one man who is big enough to
earn the salary named and straighten
Out Things on the isthmus.
me president looked over the record
or Mr.. Burt when he took charge of the
Union Pacific when that property was
just out OF the hands OF a receiver and
was In state of decay. Burt instilled
plenty of ginger into his staff and from
the day he took hold the sinecure on
the Union Pacific was a thing of the
past. The marvellous prosperity of the
property in a financial sense during
his administration of its affairs at
tracted the attention of the railroad
world and 1t was to this that the presi-
dent referred.
Mr.. Burt is at present touring the
world, but is expected home within a
short time. II he is appointed to take
charge of the canal he will succeed

graduated from Ann Harbor In 1873.
He had done some little work with sur
veying crews of railroads in vacation
times and when he came out of college
he took up engineering in earnest. He
rose rapidly, leaping over the heads of
thousands of good men, until he was
elected president of the big Hartman
road.

commission from Hartman to investi-
gate the possibilities of railroad build
ing in China and Japan. He is get

A GOOD DEAL OF NONSENSE
About "sIood Purifiers and "ronIesp


Every drop OF blood, every bone. nerve
and tissue in the body can be renewed in
but one way, and that is, from wholesome
food properly digested. There is no other
way, and the idea that a medicine in it
self can purify the blood or supply new
tissues and strong nerves is ridiculous and
on par with the fol -de-rol that dyspep-
STA or indigestion is germ disease, or
that other fallacy, that a weak stomach
which refuses to digest food can be made
to do so by irritating and inflaming the
bowels by pills and cathartics.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure indiges-
ton. sour stomach, gas and bloating after
meals, because they furnish the digestive
principles which weak Stomachs lack and,
unless the deficiency of pepsin and dias-
tase is supplied it is useless to attempt
to cure stomach trouble by the use of
"tonics," pills and "cathartics" which
have absolutely no digestive power. and
their only effect is to give temporary
stimulation.
One grain of the active principle In
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
5000 grains of meat, eggs and similar
foods, and experiments have shown that
they will do this in a glass bottle at prop
er temperature but of course are much
more effective in the stomach.
There is probably no remedy so univer->
sally used as Stuart'S Tablets, because It
is not only the sick and ailing, but well
people who use them at every meal to
insure perfect digestion and assimilation
of food.
People who enjoy fair health take Stu
arts Tablets as regularly as they take
their meals. because they want to keep
well. prevention is better than cure. and
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets do both; they
prevent Indigestion and they remove 1t
where it exists. The regular use OF one
or two OF them after meals will demon
suate their merit and efficiency better
than any other argument.

INJUNCTION DENIED
Government Aid to Build Ter
minaIs Held Legal

WASHINGTON, March 21.-An opinion
was handed down today in the court of
appeals of the district of Columbia in
the case of Josiah Willard vs. the treas
urer of the United States. in which
Willard sought to secure an Injunction
against the payment of 50. 000, 600 to the
local railroad companies in aid of the
movement for the erection of a union
depot and the concentration of the rail-
way terminals. The petition was denied.
Mr.. Willard attacked the appropriation
as unconstitutional in that IL provides for
poses and because the bill making the
appropriation originated In the senate and
not in the house of representatives. Both
points were oyerruled. the court holding
that bills making appropriations may
legitimately originate in the senate when
the appropriation is only incidental to the
purpose of the bill.
