Convenience-Guaran by Percy
w. Means.

Until a combination of unusual RENE
dies, heretofore but little known in
this country, was made in Mi-o-na
tablets. no certain cure for Indigestion

Mi-o-na is guaranteed cure for all
diseases of the stomach excepting
cancer. If you have pains or distress
after eating. headache, belchlng of
gases, sour taste in the mouth. diZZl-
ness, heart burn. specks before the
ewes, furred tongue, sleeplesSness,
back-ache debility or weakness. it
shows that the stomach needs to be
strengthened with Mi-o-na.
Just one little tablet out of a so
cent box before meals for few days,
and YOU will soon regain perfect health
and strength. Ask Bowditch 4 Web

The retirement of Night Officers
White and Chadwick has necessitated
a encouragement of beats for the Off
GERS which still remain on the force.
which was also provided for by the
above order and in accordance there
with Marshal Breen has arranged them
as follows: officer George Fletcher
who has heretofore been on duty as a
day officer, will now go on duty at noon
on the east side Of the river, where he
will remain until midnight. Night Off
Ger HarWood, who has heretofore been
on duty OH State street, has been trans
ferred to the beat which has been va
Gated by officer Edwin White, and
which includes the north end of Water
street and that section. Officer Arthur
Miron's beat, which is at the north end,
from noon until midnight, will remain
the same, as will that of Night Officer
Lnwood DuttOn. which is on Water
street.
During the forenoon there will be but
two officers on duty, the marshal and
deputy marshal. and it will also be

ing there will be but two officers on
duty in the city. The State street beat
has been abandoned altogether, and the
two officers who are on duty after mid
hight will have to look after the entire
city, attend the night trains, keep a
lookout for what fires that may occur,
and attend to what other business that
may come within their line of duty.
Whether or not the move is a wise
one remains to be seen. That it has
been, and is being criticized need not
be said. and on the other hand, there
are those who favor it, but whichever
the case, the action which Went into eff

bring about a solution.
Roth of the officers who have been re-
tired are veterans On the force. Officer
White, had he remained until the close
of the municipal year. would have
served eight years, which fact would
seem to attest to his efficiency, and Of

JUST COMMON BEER SELLERS.
Court Denies Express company's
RIGHT to Deliver Liquor in North
Dakota.


st. Paul, Mimi, Oct 21.-Judge
Phillips in the United States circuit
court of appeals, in affirming the de-
cision Of the federal court for North
Dakota in the case Of the government
against the Western Express Company,
decided that the express company in
furnishing beer to customers was act
ing not as common carrier. but as a
wholesale and retail realer in liquors.
The lower court assessed the COM
pany. $4,000 for violation of the ma
tional excise law for selling beer at
twenty-s,x stations on the 500 in
North Dakota, which is a prohibition
state. The evidence showed that the
agents Of the express company would.
on request, send orders to brewerfes
for beer in quantities desired by the
consumers.
It was shown that there was no
record that the company received any
thing for the transportation Of the
beer or that 1t took receipts on the de-
livery of the beverage. The court, in
concluding its opinion, stated that the
express company was not exercising
it's right as common carrier engaged
in interstate commerce. but violated
the internal policy of the state in al
lowing its agents to act as they did.

lNDICT RAILROAD
Linn County Grand Jury Finds Two
Indictments Against the Rock Island
System, Charging Illegal oiscrim-
ination.

4 fs & q
>,le, "a to Times Republican.
Cedar Rapids, Oct. 21.-The Linn
county grand jury has indicted the
Rock Island on two counts. both oi
them charging the company with dis
elimination and extortfon. The
indictments are said to be along the
same lines as the cases recently filed
In the justice court. both OF
which were started by ]. w. Scott
and o. w. Potter. These cases
were allowed to go by default In the
justice court, but the road announced
that 1t intended to fight the matter
out in the district court. The cases
arose out Of the low rates put In by
the Rock Island during the time 1t
was competing with the Interurban
road for the Cedar Rapids and Iowa
City passenger business. The Rock
Island has since taken off this SER
vice.
The testimony offered before the
grand jury was to the effect that there
was real and iMegal discrimination
in rates beween Cedar Rapids and
Iowa City as compared with the in-
termediate towns along the line, or
as compared with the same number
Of miles on other branches OF the
company's lines, where there was no
interurban competition. Thus it was
possible to buy ticket from Cedar
Rapids to Iowa City and return cheap
er than from Ely to Iowa City and
return, although Ely is nearer to Iowa
City than is Cedar Rapids. The two
indictments are brought under section
2147 of the code which says that the
fine shall he not less than $1,000 nor
more than $1,000 for the first offense
and not less than $1,000 nor more than
$4,000 for every subsequent offense.

lost his way and his provisions and
water gave out.
By the dead mans side was his pros
pect sack, containing samples Of rich
copper. 1t was copper in his possession
that told the story of the rich discov-
