Miss Grace Cox relished her Thanks
giving dinner with friends in Dubuque.
Some folks are not entirely over
their Thanksgiving dinner yet, but
they now admit that to eat more tur-
key and pumpkin pie than their appe-
tite allows, is not good for themselves
physically, and in some cases not for
their mental powers, for they are con-
tinually dreaming of the gobbler with
big carving knife in his claws chasing
them around the farm.
Jim Myers attended sale over near
Bloomington one day last week where
he pufehased another horse. Jim will
soon have a ranch of his own, all that
is lacking is a goat and green grass.

of weeks ago there was dance at that

those dances for those people.

RAILWAY TRAFFIC HAMPERED
Storm Throws the Schedules Out of
Gear Because the Telegraph
Wires Are Down.

st. Paul, Mimi, Dec. 7.-Railroad
traffic throughout Iowa. the DakotaS
and southern Minnesota was consider
ably demoralized on account of the
stormy condition, with rain and snow
through this section. Most of the Chi
cago-St. Paul lines were badly handi-
capped on account of the telegraph
wires being down, the result Of accu-
mutations on the wires OF rain, sleet
and snow.
The Great Western telegraph service
was i'm working order only as far south
as Dodge Center. Mimi. Many OF the
Great Northern wires were down in
North Dakota. The Great Northern
coast service is still in bad plight, ow-
ing to the washouts in the west and
the cold weather following. The
Oriental limited came in thirty-siN
hours late. There has also been great
delay in the making up of the Great
Northern coast trains for their western
trips, as the equipment has been slow
to arrive from the west.

Washington. Dec. Z. = The senate
adopted the Pehrose resolution request
ing the president TO send it informal
lion regarding the discharge of the
negro troops of the Twenty-fifth in
fantTy, and also the Foraker resolution
directing the secretary of war TO trans
NIT all information in the possession
OF his department on the same sub

teal amendment by CulbersOn asking
specifically for the order to Major

directed him not 10 turn over to the
Texas authorities certain of the troops
demanded.
President Has a Fixed Opinion.
There was Il discussion as to wheth-
er the request should be made TO the
president or TO the secretary of war,
and report was current in the cham
Der that the president felt so strongly
about the matter that if the request
was not made to him there would be
no response at all. To lay the fOunda-
ton for discussion of this point Car
ter observed that 1T had been alleged
and not denied that the troops in
question had committed murder in
Texas. This brought Foraker to his
feet with an emphatic disclaimer. This
allegation had been denied, he said,
and much evidence adduced to sup
port the denial.

REMOVAL OF RESTRICTIONS
Plans TO Eliminate Property
Judged Not Mineral
Special to Daily Leader.

Special to Daily Leader.
washington, May 2S.-The extent
to which the administration is willing
to go toward the removal OF restric-
tons en- allotments In Indian TERRI
tory is indicated in bin which sens-
tor Clapp introduced in the Senate to-
day. The chief objection to proposi-
tions Of this kind heretofore has been
that coal and oil probably underlie a
large part Of the allotted land and
that to permit it's alienation would
result in this land becoming acquired
by corporations. The bill introduced
today is designed TO prevent this. It
provides that the Secretary of the In
terror shall determine what of the
lands may be reasonably classified
as mineral lands, and these are to be
set aside by executive proclamation.
from time to time, however, the Presi-
dent may eliminate by proclamatic'
such lands as 1t may seem are not
mineral, and these lands become sus
ceptable OF alienation.
The removal Of restrictions is in
this language:
"All restrictions on the alienation OF
lands which have been or hereafter
may be allotted to Indian allottees OF
the five civilized tribes are hereby
removed excent as to full-bloods, and
lands which may be classified as coal
oil or gas lands as provided herein
provided that no lease Of agricultural
lands for a term exceeding one year
nor mineral lease Of lands from which
the restrictions have not been re
moved shall be valid unless approved
by the Secretary of the INTERIOR ant
shall be subject to such regulation.
as he may prescribe; and no land
from which the restrictions are not re
moved shall be alienated or cucumber
ed without the approval of the secre
tary fthe Interior"

Buried aoep 10 our American forests,
many years ago, DR.. Pierce iound
beautiful, blooming plant the root OF
which possesses wonderfully eihcacious
properties as a stomach and general
tonic, also as an Alternative or blood
purifier aud liver invigorator, having an
especial affinity for all mucous slriaces
upon which it exerts q most salutary,
soothing and healing influence.
This sturdy little plant Is known to
botanists as Hydrastis Canadensis, but
has several local English names, being
generally known as Golden Seal DR..
Pierce found the root OF this common
forest plant to possess medicinal prin-
ciples OF great potency, especially when
combined, IN Just the right proportions,
with Queens root, Black Cherrybark,
Stone root, Mandrake root and Blood
root, the properties OF each being eN-
tracted and preserved in chemically
pure glycerine of proper strength.
This compound DR.. Pierce named
his "Goden Medical Discovery" in
honor OF the sturdy little Golden Seal
plant So little used was the root OF
this plant by the medical profession at
that time, that it could be purchased
in the open markets for from fifteen
cents to twenty cents q pound. The
use of many tons OF this root every
year in DR.. Pierce's two leading medi.
cines-for it enters into both Golden
Medical Discovery and also into DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription as one Of
their most important ingredients-ha
caused the price Of the root to advance
until to-day il commands upwards Of
q dollar and half a pound.
DIR. rTERcE's FAITH.
DR.. Pierce believes that in our native
forests are 20 be found an abundance Of
most valuehe medicinal plants for the
cure Of many distressing and most
fatal maladies, il we would only seek
them out, test tn m and learn how
and for what diseases to use them.
Furthermore, he believes that the veg
etable kingdom is the one to resort to
for the most harmless remedial agents.
They act most kindly upon the hu-
man system and are eliminated or car
ried out of the body by the natural
functions without injury, even in cases
where it is necessary to make protracted
use OF them in order 70 experience per
manent cures. DR.. Pierce's medicines
being purely vegetable, are perfectly
harmless. In other words, while they
are potent TO cure, being purely vege-
table in composition and containing no
alcohol, they leave no b'd effects be-
hind. This is not generally true when
mineral medicines and those containing
large percentages OF alcohol are taken
into the system and their nse protracted
over considerable periods OF time.
Many years ago, DR.. Pierce discov.
cred that chemically pure glyc rine. oi

preservative OF the medicinal principles
residing in our indigenous, or native
medicinal plants than u alcohol and
furthermore, that it possesses intrinsic
