RAILWAY BILLS.
Congress Will Take Them Up Soon
After Beginning of New Year.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 30.-The
railway legislation is expected to
come up in congress soon after the
holidays. Several bills have been in
PRODUCED in the house and in the SEN
ate, and there will be hundreds of
amendments.
Much comment has been caused by
the fact that the Interstate Com
MERGE Commission has had one bill
introduced and President Roosevelt
has had another. The two bills are
very different, and it is very clear
that the president and the commission
are not pulling quite together. The
presidents measure is the more con
sentative of the two.
The great struggle will come over
two points in the presidents bill,
which was introduced by Senator
DOlliver of Iowa.
l. A fight will be made on giving
the commission power to fix rates.
?. The plan to have the rates
named by the commission go into
effect before they are reviewed by the
courts will be stOutly opposed. Many
people believe that the roads would
accept bill allowing them to be
tried before being sentenced. They
will insist on having the trial come
before the hanging, and as this prin-
cipal is recognized in all other cases,
criminal and civil, they stand some
chance of carrying this point: They
also want the law to provide that the
questions of both law and fact shall
be subject to review by the courts,
They claim this as an inalienable
right, declaring further that as the
commission has lost nine out OF every
ten cases carried into the courts the
board is liable to make mistakes of
! judgment.
The commission does not want any
court to review questions of facts in
volved after it decides a case.

1T is FREE IT 1T FAILS.
Druggists Bell SayThey Don't Charge
Anything for VinOl Unless 1t Gives
Satisfactory Results.

When asked by reporter of The
News how they could make such a
broad offer in regard to any medicine
Mr.. Bell of the above firm replied:
"If VinOl were a patent or a secret
preparation it would be another
thing, but it is not; everything it con-
tains is named on the label.
Vinol is simply an up-to-date form
of administering cod liver oil, which
for centuries has been recognized as
the grandest of all bodybuilding
agents for wasted human strength and
vitality, and during the last five years
we have seen it produce such grand
results that we are now willing to
back it with any sort of a guarantee.
In Vinol we have simply done away
with the useless, acknowledging Oil
and have given to the people all the
medicinal, bodybuilding elements of
cod liver oil in highly concentrated
and delciOusly palatable form, and
we have never sold in our store a
medicine of more curative and
strength-creating value than Nlnol,
and if the people of Dawson only
, realized its value we would not have
clerks enough in our store to supply
the demand for it. In natural man
ner Vinol tones up the digestive or
gans, makes rich red blood and Gre
ates strength. We can only ask the
people of Dawson to try it on our
guarantee. -

CAN GET TRAIN FOR S265
Will Cost Dawson That Much to Hear
the Joint Debate in Columbus,
and Come Home Same Day.

If there is any man, or any number
of men, in Dawson anxious enough to
hear the joint debate in Columbus
next Wednesday between Hon. Clark
Howell and Hon. Hoke Smith to plank
down 1865 the railroad will haul them
there and bring them home the same
day.
That is the answer of the officials OF
the Seaboard Air Line to some citizens
of Dawson who requested that the
road run non partisan special to
Columbus on the day of the debate.
Beside the 1865 rom Dawson the
train would take on passengers at
all stations along the route, and the
road would reap a big wad of money.
Whether the train will be run is yet
a matter of conjecture, but tits hardly
probable that Dawson will be willing
to put up 1865 to hear two or three
hours talk between rival politicians.

ACCIDENTALLY SHOT.
MFR. Will Notes Is Seriously Wound

Mr.. Will Notes was shot in unusual
way and narrowly escaped death Fri
day. He was driving a wagon loaded
with household effects belonging to
Mr.. Larkin Johnson, who swas NOV
ing to Mitchell county, and several
miles below Dawson a gun he was
holding between his knees was acct
dentally discharged. The gun was in

the hair on one side being burned.
Mr.. Notes came to Dawson and re-
ceived medical attention. Though
seriously wounded he is getting along

UNWORTHY, UNMANLY POLL
TICS.

This paragraph is from The Chat
tanoooa Times:
"The Nashville Banner now admits
that there was no necessity for re-
sort to the "negro domination cry in
the State campaign and that it was
only used to deceive and befool the
people. When will the decent, sensi-
BILE people of this state learn that this
negro question is simply the resort Of
politicians in tight place and who,
regarding the electorate as a body of
simple-minded chums yell themselves
hoarse against the poor negro, who in
the meantime, scared out ON his wits,
is afraid to offer his vote except to the
highly frightened screechers' who
are glad enough to accept him when
he goes their way"
g3 It is worse than this in North Car
,olina, where the dominant party is not
in a tight place, and where the negro
has been disfranchised, while he has
not not been in Tennessee. In North Car
olina few negroes vote and these few
vote the Democratic t,ckec. Yet in
