RAILROADS AS EMPIRE BUILDERS

The Northern Pacific railway starts train from St. Paul today bearing q corps of lecturers on agricultural top ics, who will make talks to the farmers at all important points along the road between the Mississippi and the Pacific. These persons, in addition to their ad- dresses and explanations on improved methods in farming and stock raising, will distribute seeds of the best quail ties among the farmers This is an idea of J. J. Hill, the head of that road for the purpose of increasing the pro- ducts and the profits to the residents along his line. He is offering blooded stock to farmers on his road ct cost price. Other roads of the northwest are also doing, or preparing to do, a little work of this sort.
 In the southwest the great roads are working on somewhat different plar, but their purpose, that of benefiting the region through which they run, Is the same as actuates the Hill and other railways of the northern tier of states. The southwestern roads act as colon izing agents. They run homeseekers' trains, at low fares, through all the region between Missouri and Texas, plant settlements at various points on their lises, offer powerful inducements to farmers and others in the rest of the country to locate in this favored sec ton, and thus are making a large ad- dition to the population and the wealth of the southwest every year. The re- sultant expansion is seen in the atten- ton which this locality is attracting from the newspaper and magazine writers all over the country.
 It is not altogether out of benevO- Ience that the railways Of the north west or southwest are doing this work. They know that this will add many millions of dollars every year to their revenues in increased traffic which 1t will bring them. Like all other finan- ciaI enterprises, the roads are doing business for the money that is in it.. They want to make dividends for their stockholders, and they find. that their enlightened policy pays. All this is re- membered by thoughtful persons when any legislation is proposed affecting the operators of the railways. In de- manding, as they do. the enactment of a rate-regulation bill which will give a square oeaI to all shippers and all localities, the people will not stand for any legislation which harmfully inter feres with the railways in their Iegi~ innate activities-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

RESTRAINT OF CONSCIENCE.

An urchin who occasionally ven tured behind the scenes of a theater on the lower East Side of New York during rehersals, was one day observ- ed by one Of the actors sitting in a corner lovingly cycling a huge sand wich which he held in his grimy hands, He cautiously regarded it for a few moments, and then cautiously lifting the top layer, extracted a piece of pickle and ate it; then he closed It down again very carefully and accu- rately made all as before A few mo- ments later he repeated the perform ance, taking out another piece of pickle and small fragment of meat and again Carefully restored the sandwich to it's original form. After another short interval he took out more pickle and more meat so that now there was very little of the original middle layer left, and again he closed it up care fully.
 What are you doing that for?" the actor asked. That's no wGs- to eat a sandwich. Why don't you eat it all If you want it, and not pick at it like that?"
 Tommy lifted a scornful eye to the actors uncomprehending face and and muttered laconically:

Wasted Lives
 In Phoenix
Men and Women Who Are in Need of a helping Hand. H. Goodman Of- fers way to Better Things.

It is hard for those who are never i'll, or who have simply a sick day or week occasionally, to realize the wretched existence and wasted lives of those beset with chronic indigestion.
 There is no more irritating or nerve racking condition than that caused by a weak stomach. It gnaws and wears upon every nerve fibre in the body and results in sleeplessness, headache, backaches. rheumatic pains, furred tongue, distress after eating. poor ap- petite and general weakness and de- bility.
 As we may look to q weakened stom- ach for most of the chronic or finger ing ills that weaken and rack our lives, it is of the greatest importance to know that a remedy for stomach trou- bles is at last offered by a reliable drug firm in Phoenix under a guaran- tee that it costs nothing unless it cures.
 Mi-O-na, feels that it will be success full in every case where it is used in accordance with directions. that is, one tablet before each meal, and he offers to sell it under an absolute guarantee to refund the money if 1t does not cure.
 A large box of Mi-o-na tablets costs but 50 cents, if it helps you; nothing unless it restores health.

WHY THE czAR WEAkENs.

Russia must borrow $4OO, 900, 900 in order to defray the expenditures of the next two years, and to the lay observer it would seem impossible to raise this, or any considerable amount, in existing conditions. It has a stupendous na- tional debt, and France is the heaviest creditor by far. Nevertheless. Paris bankers agree to raise this loan, pro- viding Count Witte is retained as prime minister. and the state Douma be allowed to meet according to the program, when the further provision that this body formally sanction every previous French loan, together with the new ones required.

Tempe people than the appearance of
 Chas. B. Hanford Monday evening in "The Merchant of Venice" at the Dor
 ris. On account of the nature of the play, the normal students were per mitted to attend and a large number Of them took advantage of the oppor- tunity as did several members of the faculty and many of the townspeOple. All are liberal in their praise of the way they were treated by the man agement of the theater. Those taking the best seats had their car fare re . funded at the box office; those who Tad engaged sea IS in advance found them ready and good seats saved. Un- fortunately, the same can not be said of the railroad company. In the first place, the special train consisted of one coach and the smoker, whereas there were enough people on the train when it reached Tempe to easily fill those two cars. The result was that most of the Tempe people stood up both ways unless they were quick enougn in getting to the train after the performance to secure seat. Then, too, the train was held at Phoe- nix almost an hour after the perform ance had been concluded, and it was close to 1 o'clock in the morning by the time Tempe people reached their homes.
