CONTRACT FOR NEBRASKA ROAD
Great Northern to Build from Sioux
City to Connect With Burlnuton.

SIOUX CITY-The contract for the
extension of the Great Northern rail
road from Sioux City to Ashland, Neb.,
has been let to Peter Sims, a ST. Paul
contractor, according to advices re-
ceived in Sioux City. 1t is said that
big force of men will be put to work
grading for the extension within ten
days.
The extension of the Great Northern
from Sioux City to Ashland would
unite the Gerat Northern and the Bur
lington, and would be of great import
ance to Sioux City. The Great North
ern has already spent several hundred
thousands dollars in purchasing ter
minals in Sioux City and made plans
for the expenditure of $1,5OO,OOO more
here
A special construction train passed
through Sioux City on the Chicago
Milwaukee & st. Paul on its way to
Armour, S. d.. to begin work on the
proposed extension from Armour to
Chamberlain. In some quarters it is
believed that this move means that
the Milwaukee will build to the coast.

KILLED HIS BEAR
PRESIDENT SUCCESSFUL IN HIS
COLORADO HUNT.
COT WHAT He WAS AFTER
Courier Brings in Pelt Of 5ruin From
the Camp to Secretary Loeb-No
Details Of the Hunt Thus Far Given
Out.

GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colo
President Roosevelt has killed a bear
and bob cat. He is satisfied with his
hunt for the biggest game the
Rockies afford If he gets one more
bear or several he will be better
pleased, but to quote his own words:
II got what / was after. 1t was bully
srort and | hope it keeps up
This is the story brought to Secre'
tary Loeb by Elmer Chapman, cour-
Ter with close mouth, who was
chosen to bear messages between the
president and the temporary seat of
government at the Hotel Colorado in
this city.
While he came through Newcastle,
where are camped numerous cores.
pondents of newspapers, he brought
his story intact. There was no leak
age and all the information obtainable
at that place was derived from a
view of closely rolled fresh bear
ship which Chapman transferred from
his saddle to the car at the railway
station.
rs that all you've got?" he was
asked
Isn't that enough?" he replied.
This was about the substance of
the conversation in which Chapman
participated at Newcastle. He was
chosen because he knows when not
to talk. Before starting on his hunt
the president said he did not want any
newspaper men to follow him. To
three correspondents representing
press associations, who accompanied
him from Washington the president
said: "You stick by Loeb and | will
help you all | can. I cannot send out
a messenger every day, but as soon
shall have it"
The courier got through Newcastle
without talking and the president
made good to those who complied
with his wishes.
But if the courier was reticent at
Newcastle he was different when his
journey was at an end and Secretary
Loeb had removed the injunction of
secrecy. His eyes kndled with a fire
that told his admiration for the presi-
dents prowess as hunter more than
did the words at his command. The
expression the hardy mountaineer in
jected into his story was: Say fell
lows, he's a beaut and no mistake.
The way he scents game would
make you think he was born in the
mountains and had never left them.
Say, now, being president don't make
any difference with a man that's got
the real stuff in him. Golf said he was
the real thing and did not need show
ing, but I did not believe it,"
The thought of starting home ap-
parently has not entered the presi-
dents head. He says he intends to en-
joy himself as much as possible dur
ing his outing and his companions be-
lieve he is doing it. If he has thoughts
of affairs at Washington he has not
communicated them to the mountain

d Soma of Easter.

We may not count the choirs that sing
Their jubilates on this day
Fieldside and street and chapel-way,
Vocal with gladness ring.
There is no record of the flowers
In grace and glory multiplied;
All luminous and vestal-eyed
They shrive the Easter hours.
And multtudinous the prayers
That from vast congregations rise,
Like ceaseless incense meath the skies
Whereso the Easter fares.
And pausing mid the hallowed light
And universal voice OF praise,
Who adds no knowledge to his days,
No wisdom to his sight?
Some Easter ray shall pierce tho walls
Where clustered Self had fixed hel
choice;
And on her lonely paths the voice
OF Easter clearly falls.

have a stock on hand of other brands

Game She Didn't Like.

A little girl, the daughter of a min
lister, was up later than usual one
night, and for the first time in her life
was present at family prayers. Dur

very quiet, but when her father knelt
down to pray she went up to him, and,
touching him on the shoulder, said:
PA, don't like to play at this game"

Poverty is a great bar to education,
but would not be if both the child
and the parent were alive to the real
value Of an education. II education
cannot be acquired in one way it can
in another. The trouble is that the
Judgment of the child is too immature
to prove safe guide, and the parent
leaves everything to the child.

THE DEAN BILL.

Among the many experiments that
are offered for the action of the state
lawmakers is the above named bill.
Sections one and two make it obliga-
tory on the manufacturers Of patent
medicines to either label their
bottles or packages of medicines with
list of the names of the drugs or
other ingredients which they contain
or pay license of not less than five
dollars per annum for the privilege
Of selling them in the state.
Sections three and four provide that
when it is found that any patent
medicines contain more than twenty
five per cent. of alcohol the vendor
may be required by the county com.
missioners Of the county I'm which IL
is sold TO pay license of not less
than five dollars per annum and that
tho money thus collected shall be
put into the school fund.
In considering the measure IL is evil
dent that aside from this injustice of
asking any inventor to advertise HE
discovery and explain its parts in the
Iron County record. [volume] (Cedar City, Utah) 1893-1982, 1905-03-03

public prints 80 as to deprive him of
the benefit of his idea, the expences
of the carrying out OF the provision Of
sections one and two would fall
neither on the vendor nor the manu-
facturer, but on the consumer; as 1t
would not take much ingenuity on the
part OF the manufacturer to place IL
there. A little less medicine in a
bottle or package would do the bust
ness, or little smaller bottle,
or cent or two added to the price |;
and doubtless there would be found
still better ways of conceling the
transaction. And under the circum-
stances who could blame the manu-
facturer for protecting himself. IL
seems to be the very essence of injus-
tice to ask him to give away his trade
secrets and be at the expense of
printing and publishing the gift.
III the Legislature wants to tax the
sale of patent medicines why not do
IL direct and not in this roundabout
manner. But as we have said the
tax will fall on the consumer, and
not only that, but it will fall on a
class of people that are in many cases
least able to bear it upon the poorer
class of individuals. The more wealthy
class of afflicted people are able to
secure the services of doctor when
they need medicine, but the poor
through their poverty are obliged to
resort to cheaper means of treatment.
AS far as the provisions of sections
three aud four are concerned we
should be glad to see even more strin-
gent measures adopted towards the
whisky decoctions than the bill por-
vides, as they are often as mis-
chevious in their effects as
whisky straight and their sale far
more difficult to control. A bill
ought to be passed declaring all such
compounds liable to the provisions OF
the law against the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors.

In Judge Armstrong; division of
the district court of the third judi
icial district, four divorces were
granted last week. Three were
granted to wives, two for drunkness
and failure to provide, and one for
cruelty. One husband was granted a
divorce on the grounds Of disertion.
An interesting and lively seance was
held in the committee rooms OF the
house, committee ON public health
last Friday evening at the capital,
when a mixed crowd of the bealers
met to discuss the merits of House
bill No. 122, which is the measure
presented by the regular medical
practitioners for the securing of the
public from the impositions of peo-
pie who profess to understand the
healing art, and have not taken the
regulation training. There was pre-
sent besides the regular practitioners
and their attorney, a number of
Christian Scientists who also had an
attorney, and some representatives of
the osteopaths. The Christian
Scientists asked that clause be in
serted in the bill exempting them
from the penalties and requirements
of the act. This was strongly
opposed by the regulars on the ground
that contagious diseases would be
allowed to spread on account of the
lack Of knowledge and experience of
these faith physicians, and although
the measure was monopoly, it was
needed In the interests of the public
good. The Christian Scientists
allowed that they could tell case of
measeles, etc., as we'll as most of the
doctors and that in such cases the
law made II obligatory upon them
to report it to the proper officers.

reasons given for the increase seem
to pertain more TO the dignity that
will be added to the Office and to the
nation, than any special need that the
chief executive has for money. It
Is thought that nation as great as
ours Is belittled by the paymen of
the small sum of fifty thousand dol
lars annually to its head, when much
smaller governments pay larger
sum TO theirs. There Is always
some excuse to be urged for tho ex-
penditure of largo SINUS of money on
official positions. The stock argu-
ment lie that the higher price the bet
ter the men, but when 1t comes to
the Office Of president of the ~nation
the $50, 900 and the distinction Is
sufficient inducement TO make the
richest men willing to undertake the
job and the poor man ia never in
vited. II this raising Of the salary
was left to the laboring man to de-
eide, the chances are that they would
be content with little less dignity
and avoid the extra expense, but
they will have nothing to do with
the matter except to furnish the cash.
Many people get great credit for
liberaiity when they do not have to
spend their own money, who If they
we're finding the money and creating
the wealth that produced it by their
labor and not by their scheming,
would be found to be very sparing in
their expenditures. "Come easy, go
easy'is an old and true saying.
