Japan after the Chinese war has
turned an island of pirates and her

Protesting Against Rate Reduction


Atlanta, Ga.-The recent PROPOSE
ton of ]. Pope Brown, Chairman of
the Georgia Railroad commission, to
reduce the passenger rate in Georgia
from three TO two cents per mile was
protested against by the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, the Order
Of Railway Conductors, and unions Of
The blacksmiths, machinists and teieg-
yaphers, boilermakers, railway train
raen, carpenters and joiners, clerks
and car men. These organizations en-.
ployed an attorney especially to rep
resent them, who urged that such q
'eduction would work against the
prosperity of the state and lead to Il
reduction in the number of railroad
employees, as well as of their wages.
The Travellers Protective Association
also protested that a reduction, as
proposed, would result in fewer trains
and poorer service.

BURIAL ASSOCIATION

The Relief and Burial Association,
which started some months ago to
compete with the Harrison Mutual
Burial Association, is likely to be in
volved in an infringement suit. The
Harrison Mutual has a copyright on
the system which both societies use
here and it's head man, Mr.. Burk, keeps
busy bringing suits all over the coun-
try for infringement. The Relief and
Burial Association here has been warn
ed by Mr.. Burk to get out of the bust
ness.
AS a protection to the public, Mr..
Burk publishes the decision of the
United States Court, where the suit was
brought against twelve undertakers. A
test case was made against Mr.. Mil
Ter, as his was the strongest firm of the
twelve. While Mr.. Burk had but one
lawyer, the opposition having dozen,
yet the United States judge decided in
favor of Mr.. Burk
at this time Mr.. Burk has two suits
or hand in the States. He prosecutes
every infringement on his copyright,
and has never lost suit.

HILO KICKING ABOUT

It is reported from HiIo that Jared
Smith. in charge Of the local office OF
the Federal Department of Agriculture,
wrote to the Hilo Board OF Trade at the
suggestion of Clifford Pinchot, Head
Forester at Washington, asking for in
lorna ton as TO the operation of the
land laws. 1t was said that President
Roosevelt had interested himself in the
matter and that Pinchor's letter was
really an executive proxy.
The President and Secretary of the
Hilo Board of Trade have written a
letter to Mr. Pinchot in which they
recommend that the land laws remain
intact, but that the administration of
them be taken from the Territorial
government and vested in the Commits
sioner of the General Land Office, act
ing through officers sent from the main
land"
They claim to think this would put Ha-
wall on the same footing as other
states and territories, liberaliZe the local
land policy. stimulate immigration and
generally improve local conditions. The
complaints made as to present condi-
tons and method of enforcement of the
land laws are, according to Hilos let
ter to Washington, harsh and unjust
administration, driving out those who
are here and keeping away those who
would come, obstacles placed in the
way of settlers-unreasona BILE and vi

HOT ONIONS FOR PNEUMONIA.

Owing to the prevalence of pneu-
monia and the great mortality which
attend it's ravageS during the winter
and spring, several boards of health in
northern New Jersey have been TAX
ing measures to protect the citizens of
their towns from the disease. The
health board of Washington, n. j., has
published a remedy which is said to be
a sure cure for pneumonia, and other
health boards are looking into the mat
ter with a view of having the same
thing published for the good of the gen
eral public. This is the publication as
it has appeared in the papers of
Washington:
Take six to ten onions. according to
size, and chop fine. put in large spider
over a hot fire, then add the same
quantity of rye meal and vinegar
enough to form thick paste. In the
meanwhile stir it thoroughly, letting
it simmer five or ten minutes. Then
put in a cotton bag large enough to
cover the lungs and apply to chest as
hot as patient can bear. In about ten
minutes apply another, and thus con-
tinue by relocating the poultices, ana
in a few hours the patient will be out
of danger. This simple remedy has
never failed to cure this too-often fatal
malady. Usually three or four applica-
tions Will be sufficient, but continue
always until the perspiration starts
freely from the chest. This remedy was
formulated many years ago by one of
the best physicians New England has
ever known. who never lost a patient
by the disease, and won his renown by
simple remedies. '-LeSlies
