Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1905-06-28

Every fifty years there was year of
jubilee for the Israelites-a year when
all deals were squared up, debts can
celed, slaves freed, old scores wiped
out and every fellow took fresh start
"a sort of national bankruptcy affair.
Some men would like year of jubilee
now, but it would do them no good,
for this sort never profit by experience
and would go right ahead to the limit
of their credit getting into debt again.
No equitable division of this worlds
goods would ever keep them square.

One point, and good one, is made
in favor of the leveling of the dirt road
after a rain, and it is that, there being
no track or runt for wagons, travellers
will not drive in each others tracks,
but will spread out, so to speak, and
thus help roll the road and keep it in
good shane

LIMITING HOURS OF LABOR.

The Supreme court of the United
States has held that the state law
enacted by the state of New York
limiting the hours. is unconstitution
al. The court says that there is no
reason for evading the individual
right or the individual free
dom in the bakers occupation, in
asmuch as health is not involved. nor
the peace of the state. The court
leaves the inference that it would !,e
proper to limit the hours of labor
ii there were any demand fer same
in the interest Of the publ c; that the
cubic interest might Justify an infer
ence This decision is one of the
most important that has been reni-
cred by the supreme court in great
many years. 1t practically says
that an individual can make his owl
contract as to the disposition of his
own time and labor The effect of
the decision will be to overturn many
state laws ca the subject. Somehow
the decision leaves one to infer that In

The decision on the part Of the
supreme court will affect the Colorado
situation. In that state the people
adopted constitutional amen 1nant
fixing a days work in the mines
at eight hours, and the leeis'atnr"
refused tc enact a statute to put the
amendment into force.
It is not believed the decision Will

FOR WOMEN AND WOMEN ONLY.
Much That Every Woman Desires to Know About Sanative, Antiseptic Cleansing and the Care of the Skin, Scalp, Hair, and Hands.
WHAT CUTICURA
 DOES FOR WOMEN

Too much stress cannot be placed on the great value of Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and Pills in the antisep- tic cleansing of the mucous sur faces, and of the blood and circulating fluids, thus afOrding pure, sweet, and economical local and constitutional treatment for weakening alterations, infammations, itchings, irritations, relaxations, displacements, pains, and Irregularities peculiar to females. Hence the Cuticura remedies have a wonderful influence in restoring health, strength, and beauty to weary women, who have been prematurely aged and invalided by these distress ing ailments, as well as such sympa- thetic ahliCtions as an3mia, chlorosis, hysteria, and nervousness.
 Women from the very first have fully appreciated the purity and sweet ness, the power to afford immediate relief, the certainty of speedy and permanent cure, the absolute safety and great economy which have made CutiCura the standard humOur rem edy of the civilized world

And more than tha3 it is supposed that all ponderable mat ; ter is ready made out of ether By pOnderable matter We mean matter which is subject to gravitation and therefore, has weight. The ether it. self, which conveys the gravitation, is conceived a s of being without weight.

This you will see when ] enummerate all the entity discharges It conveys the force of Sravitation. It has the power of vibrating from side 10 side. and these vibrations, accord ing as they are fast or slow, have the most varied results upon us.

THE HOSPITAL CONTRACT
DF. Rhymes Will Have Personal Sup-
 eFviSi0n of the Institution.

The board of supervisors yesterday awarded the contract for the care Of the county hospital to Dr. w. J. Rhymes at 34 cents a day for each in mate the contractor to furnish every thing in the way of supplies and pro visions except such as may be raised on the hospital farm. The cali for bids specified that the contractor should give the work his personal su- pervision either by daily visits to the institution or by a residence at the hospital; there could be no sub-let- ting. Dr. Rhymes. according to the terms of his contract. which will prob ably be signed today, agrees to live at the hospital and devote himself en- tirely to the care Of that institution.
 There are now about forty-fyc in mates and that is as small a mum Der as will probably be there at any time in the year. The number is much greater in the winter months, reaching as much as seveuty-Gve at one time last winter. Other bidders for the contract were pr. Q. L. Ma honey and M. J. PeUtid.

 The later petitioners suggest that if the Arizona canal were in proper re- pair it would convey all the waters of Cave creek in flood time and they urge that the board cause the south bank of the canal to be sufficiently strengthened for that purpose. But there is one thing which has not been taken into consideration by the peti- tioners and that is the absence of the right of the supervisors to enter up on private property and build a dyke. No action has been taken on the pc tition.
 The board granted to the Phoenix Street Railway company d franchise for an extension of it's system from Adams street at about Nineteenth aV- enue in a nOrtherly ana northwesterly direction to Six Points or the grounds of the Territorial Fair association. The track will in a general way parallel the track of the s. F. P. & P.
 The board acted favorably on the petition of the Territorial Fair associ- ation for the vacation and closing of the streets of the recently purchased territorial fair grounds.
