RAIE BILL ClNCHED.
President Approves Compromise and
ALI Obstacles to Its Passage
are Remnyed.
are Removed.

A washington special says: Presi-
dent Roosevelt Friday afternoon mads
formal announcement of his approval
Of the amendment to the railroad bill
proposed by Senator Allison, which
solves the much discussed question of
judicial review by simply comforting
full jurisdiction upon the circuit courts
of the United States to hear and de-
termine all complaints brought by the
railroads against the orders and reg
ulations of the interstate commerce
commission and places no limitation
whatsoever upon the scope of the
courts review.
This announcement was made to
number of newspaper men summon
ed to the conference at the white
house. Some weeks ago the presi-
dent announced to a similar confer
ence, that he was giving his support
to the amendment of Senator Long
providing for a narrow review. In
order to explain his reasons for the
apparent change of position on his
Part he talked freely and frankly with
the Representatives Of the press at
Fridays conference. Briefly stated,
the position of the president is that
the Allison amendment does nothing
more than affirm what he believes is
already in the Hepburn bill. While
some Of the advocates of that meas
ure have contended that it provided
no review, the president holds it did.
TIC meet the objection that without
specific comforting Of jurisdiction the
bill might be held to be unconstitu-
tional, he favors the Allison amend
ment, though he would prefer the
Long amendment restricting the
courts to the consideration Of two
questions, first, whether the commits
sion exceeded its authority; second,
whether any of the constitutional
rights of the carrier had been in
vaded
He admitted that it had been found
impossible to get the so-called mar
row review republicans to agree to
the Long amendment, so the Allison
amendment was agreed to as the sim
plest possible solution.
The broad review element of repub'
licans naturally regards this in the
nature of victory for them, since it
leaves to the courts to determine for
themselves the trend Of the review.
with no legislative restrictions placed
upon them.

and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkham,
builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and q
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days 1t
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, natures own remedies
calling in a physician only in specially
urgent eases. By tradition and ex-
perience many Of them gained won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took q great interest
in the study Of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetable foods of
all kinds so, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex-
pressly designed to cure the various
ills and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi-
cines for her own family and friends.
Chief of these was rare conlbina-
ton of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure Of the ills and weaknesses pecu-
liar to the female sex, and Lydia E. Pink
hams friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
All this so far was done freely, with
out money and without price, as
labor Of love.
But in 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. Its length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of the Pinlzham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, SO when the Centen-
NAL year dawned it found their prop
erty swept away. Some other source
of income had to be found.
At this point Lydia e. Pinkha1n's
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.
The three sons and the daughter,
with their mother, combined forces to

restore the FAMILY fortune. They
argued that the medicine which was
so good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for the
women of the whole world.
The Pinkhams had no money, and
little credit. Their first laboratory
was the kitehen, where roots and
herbs were stepped ON the stove,
gradually filing a gross of bottles.
Then came the question of selling
it, for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired a Job
printer to run off some pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi-
cine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, and these were
distributed by the Pinkham sons in
Boston, New York, and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties OF
the medicine were, to great extent,
self-advertising for whoever used it
recommended it to others, and the de-
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts the fam
! lily had saved enough money to COM
menco newspaper advertising and from
that time the growth and success OF
the enterprise were assured, until to-
day Lydia q. Pinkham and her Vege-
table Compound have become house.
hold words everywhere, and many
tons of roots and herbs are used annu-
ally in its manufacture.
Lydia e. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success of this
work. She passed to her reward years
ago, but not till she had provided
means for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done 1t
herself.
During her long and eventful expe.
rience she was ever methodioal in her
work and she was always careful to pre-
serve record of every case that came to
her attention. The case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice
and there were housands-received
careful study and the details, includ-
ing symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made since, are
available to sick women the world
over, and represent vast collabora-
ton of information regarding the
treatment of woman's ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in the
world.
With Lydia E, Pinkham worked her
daughter in law, the present Mrs.
Pinkham. She was carefully instructed
in all her hard-won knowledge, and
for years she assisted her in her vast
correspondence.
To her hands naturally fell the
direction Of the work when its origina-
tor passed away. For nearly twenty
five years she has continued it, and
nothing in the work shows when the
first Lydia e. Pinkham dropped her
pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham,
now the mother of large family, took
it up. With woman assistants, some as
capable as herself, the present Mrs.
Pinl1ham continues this great work, and
probably from the Office of no other
person have so many women been ad-
vised how to regain health. Sick wo-
men, this advice is ''Yours for Health"
freely given if you only write to ask
for it.
Such is the history Of Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound made
from simple roots and herbs; the one
great medicine for women's ailments,
and the fitting monument to the noble
woman whose name 1t bears.

The recent announcement that the
government would continue to view
the liquor traffic on what was form

icit, and would institute proceedings
against all who are engaged In the
business. has created some interest
within this county. While liquor men
are naturally placed in an uncertain
position by the governments stand.
they are nevertheless sanguine that
eventually the courts will sustain their
contention that the famous 'prohibi-
ton clause" in the Indian treaty Ii
unconstitutional and that they will be
permitted to continue their business
unmolested. Steps will at once be
taken by the liquor men to bring the
matter to a definite conclusion In the
courts. Many people do not favor the
