new KIND OF STRIKE.
In Which the Strikers Continue to
Draw Pay.

Vienna, Nov. II. = The passive re-
sistance strike movement became eff
fectivD at the railway station here.
Already the traffic delays are serious.
The government is preparing for
possible disorders. Troops are being
got in readiness for active service and
further reinforcements are being sent
to Prague, where general strike is
threatened, in support of the demand
for universal suffrage.
Among the advantages to the rail-
road men of this novel system Of
striking is that they will draw pay
and can not be removed, as theoreti-
cally their attitude is correct.

GAME BIRD PRESERVES.
National Breeding Grounds Planned
on islands IN Lake Superior.

National Breeding Grounds Planned
on islands IN Lake Superior.
BY Il proclamation of President ltooSe-
welt. Il copy OF whose order has been
transmitted to the Marquette land office,
all the u~nsurveycd lands in the Huron
and SiSEiwitt groups in Lake Superior
are set aside as preserves AID breeding
grounds for native birds, says IL special
dispatch from Marquette, Mich, to the
New York World. The action taken is
in line with the movement creating
forest. game and bird preserves on Coy-
ernment lands adapted for the purpose
in al parts of the United States.
The islands affected by the presi-
dents order are remote from CiviliZl-
ton, nm important factor in carrying
out the plan of creating Il breeding
ground. 1t is not the purpose of the
department of agriculture. to whose jul
risdiction they have been transferred.
to make improvements on the stands.
but to allow them TO remain in their
native Witness, maintaining constant
surveillance in the matter of restrain
ing ~treSpas.CrS ana preventing hunters
and trapper5 from visiting the places.
IN the Huron group there are II nun
bcr of small islands which do not ap-
pear on the official maps of the govern.
mcpt l@nd office. Some of them con
tain less than 4 section Of land. while
others include within their boundaries
from 800 TO GOO acres, 1t is also or
dered that all. bodies OF land that may
hereafter be discovered and designated

order as withdrawn from public entry,
the whole group to be known ~ the
Huron island reservation. There are
eight full sections reserved in the Sis
liwitt. or Mcnagerie, group, located
near the mouth of Siskiwitt bay, on the
south side of Isle Royalc.

bridges VIII mean endless expense In
the construction of lew ones. There
will be ten highway bridges and four
railroad bridges in the path of the
dredge.
Another feature of the great task will
ne the digging Of arms for the main
ditch. 1t is proposed to drain eighty
dve sections of land either with tribu-
taries or by the main ditch. Onc fea-
ture Of the work that will lessen the
cost is the condition of the bed of the
Brandywine. The dredgc will encoun-
ter little gravel or stone. For the great
er part OF the distance 1t will dig into
u black muck, the same as borders the
stream for miles on both sides. 1t is
figured that, once the Brandywine il
Strengthened and %deepencd, the farm
ers owning marsh land will be able to
raise bountiful crops of corn. In its
present state it is practically worth
less. In the upland property is held in
the market ut from $12J to 5000 an
acre: in the marShland the greater part
OF it cannot be sold ut any price. and
it is hopeful land indeed that brings
$50 an acre. The ditch will send the
marsh land up to II figure equal with
that on the higher level. During the
greater part of the year the land along
the Brandywine is covered with swamp
grasses, and eel cattle annot venture
upon ii because of the danger of mire.
The county surveyor will report Oh
he probable cost of he work on Nov.
%, at which time the damages and
benefits will be fixed. If the weather
remains favorable and there is no Other
legal obstacle to encounter, the work
of making the Brandywine Il CONNER
cial waterway will begin this fall.

Walter Camp. Device to evc
S!icing In Golf.

SiiNIIS ih eotl.
Walter Camp, the Yale athletic adj

brace which, it is thought, will correct

New York Tribune. In speaking of it
Mr.. Camp said that plans are being
made to put it on the market early in
the spring when the golfing season for
1906 opens. 1t is Il brace to keep the
left arm Strengthened in driving the
ball.
The brace is fastened above and he.

a Judicious Inquiry.

A well known travelling man who
visits the drug trade says he has often
heard druggists inquire of customers
who asked for a cough medicine, weth-
err it was wanted for u child OF ar adult,
and if for a child they invaribly rec
commended Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy. The reason for this is that they
know there is no danger from it
md hat it always cures. There is not
the least danger in giving it. and for
coughs colds and Group it is unsurpass-
ed. For sale by all druggist.

NONE BUT THE BEST MEN ON

On the twentieth of April the Dem
their officials for the coming two
years. 1t is the most important city
primary that has been held in Raleigh
in a decade. The new charter goes
in operation in May and 1t is impor-
tant that the eight best men in Raj
eigh should be chosen to carry out its
provisions. Much is expected from the
Board of Audit and Finance, but
everything depends upon the charac-
ter and civic courage of the men
selected. A Police Justice is to be
selected. He is entrusted with large
powers and the people of Raleigh
should be alert to see that the man
chosen knows the law and has the
courage to execute it. There is cry
ing need in certain quarters for Wig
orous execution of the criminal laws
in Raleigh. The citizens should select
a man for that position that has sense
and grit
Raleigh will have good government
If its people wish it enough to make
some sacrifice to secure it, The rea-
son every town or city has a weak
government is because too many of
its best men abdicate and leave weak
er men, or men with a personal axe
to grind, to control. We commend
to every citizen of Raleigh and other
North Carolina towns and cities that
will soon hold municipal elections the
timely utterance upon the duty of cit
izenship made by Governor Montague,
of Virginia, at the Aldermanic Ban
quet in Richmond last week:
''The genius OF citizenship is sacri-
fice-and the highest type of citizen
is he who is willing to forego his
personal benefit that the greater mass
of his fellows may be advanced The
question before us now is whether the
