Afraid Of Strong Medicines.

Many people suffer for years from
rheumatic pains, and prefer to do
so rather than take the strong med
icines usually given for rheumatism,
not knowing that quick relief from
pain may be had simply by apply
ing Chamberlain's Pain Balm and
without taking any medicine inter-
nally. Rev. Amos Parker of Mag
nolia, North Carolina, suffered for
eight years with lame hip, due to
severe rheumatic pains. He has
been permanently curedby the free

Balm. For sale by S. V. Writ

LOCAL OPTION LAWS.

In the case of Will Owens
against the State, appealed
from Jones county, the court of
criminal appeals holds that a
common carrier, in this case a
party who drove a hack from
Jones county into Haskell, can
take orders for liquor in local
option districts and receive pay
therefor without violation of
the law. Owens collected the
price of the liquor in advance
and in addition charged a COM
mission for delivery. AS in the
interstate case decided by the
same court some two or three
weeks ago, the decision in the
Owens case is, Judge Brooks
alone dissenting, that the pur-
chase is made at the place of
filing the order-where the
liquor is poured out of the bar
rel-and not at the place of de-
livery. In the interstate case
alluded to the court decided
that drummers for houses out
side of the state, could solicit
orders in local option districts
and the goods be delivered with.
out case being made against
them.
These decisions, now the law
of Texas, have opened several
avenues to the liquor traffic
heretofore thought to be closed
in local option territory and
while not by any means a
knockout" blow to the present
statutes on the subject they have
got them rather up against the
'ropes."
The News is strictly against
the saloon with its "now-
a-days" barb wire "pizen,
but it is of the opinion that the
very best way to wipe them out
entirely is the adoption of
the South Carolina dispensary
plan. What with interstate
commerce laws over which
the State authorities can have
no control whatever, and laws
made as in the case from Jones
county herein cited the dispen,
sary system seems to be the
only solution OF this much vex-
ed auestion-it works admirably
in good old South Carolina.

The Railroad.

The people of San Angelo
are expecting it. They say that
it will build from there to Pecos
they are dead sure about it.
The surveying corps has com.
pleted its survey fromColeman to
Abilene and is on the back track
with another survey. Thursday
of last week it had reached a
point on the back run near
Burkett in Coleman county.
We don't hear much from
Amarillo these days except now
and then when some citizen of
that town chooses to express
himself as did Mr.. Pash in the
News Office Friday. When
questioned on this point Mr..
Pash said he thought the rail-
road was sure thing, and that
it would begin building this year,
crossing the Pecos Valley sat or
near this town."
The fact of the business is
that so far it is all conjecture as
to how the road will go or when
it will go after the first point of
route is determined. The sur
veyors don't know and even the
managers who are directing all
their engineering are in the
dark about it as yet-the chips
must all be in before the cor
poration throws down its cards.
