Phone From Train.

Truly, this is fast becoming an
electrical age and aim ,st every day
the all powerful but invisible cur
rent is put to some new use. A
person does not have to be very
old to remember when it was
first demonstrated that. by aid OF
electricity, persons situated
several miles apart could freely
converse with each other and their
voices could be easy recognized.
Gradually has the telephone sys-
TEN been improved until now it
has seemingly reached the stage
of projection ard one thinks no
more of talking over. the phone
with friend who is hundreds OF
miles away than if the friend
lived in the adjoining block.
In large cities and even in
towns the size of Montpelier tele.
phones have come to be considered
an absolute necessity and we
would not do without them for two
or three times their cost.
Not only in the busy bustling
cities are the telephone brought
into constant use but in the man
agement of our great railroad sys
tenn they also play an important
part. On all the big road tele-
phones are now to be seen at blind
sidings and at flag stations where
telegraph operators are not re
tanned. Thus are train crews en-
abled, in cases of accidents or col
lision at or near points to get in
quick communication with the train
dispatcher at the nearest division
point.
But not satisfied with this step
forward in the management of their
train service the railroad companies
are now having their passenger
trains and cabooses equipped
with phones SO that no matter what
point on the road tram may be
come disabled The conductor can
within a minute or two notify head
quarters.
The Oregon Short Line will
soon have every caboose on its sys-
TEN equipped with phone. The
ms rnln,nt is attached to the side
Of the car and by the aid of a
rod similar in appearance to a
bamboo fish pole connection can
quickly be made with the telc-
graph wire. The ground connection
is made by running wire down
and attaching it to one OF the car
wheel journals Connection being
made with tie telegraph wire, the
conductor rings mp the dispatcher
and tells him his troubles.
All the cab ,oses on the first dis
trict now fitted with these hello
Instruments and within a week
every caboose on the system will
be equipped with them. Mont

TRoLLEY's ON THE RANeE
Two Companies Scramble for Franchise
Advantages, Both with Success.

Special to The Journal.
Virginia, Mimi, Oct. 1.-two COM
panies have been organized to construct
a trolley line connecting all the range
towns, the Mesaba Traction company,
F. B. Myers, Biwabik, president; and
the Northern Traction company, R. F.
Berdie, Hibbing, president. - IH.c..-'' .
: At the present time the two COM
panies are competing for franchises
from the different towns. The Mesaba
Traction company has secured permit
from the county commissioners to use
the county roads, while the Northern
Traction company has received fran
chises from the villages of Hibbing
and Chisholm, and have already done
some work on the western end of the
range. .@a -
The Mesaba Traction company is now
endeavoring to secure franchise from
Eveleth, but the sentiment of Eveleth
and Virginia is that the franchise be
granted to the company that offers the
better service, and pays most for the
franchise in cash. City Attorney Shea
Of Virginia is now at work on a fran
chise that will be given to the company
filing these conditions.
F. B. Myers, for his company, has
stated that twin city men are putting
up the capital for the work, while
business men Of the range cities are
backing the other company.

GREAT NORTHERN
FIGHTS THE 500
Two Great Rivals Wage Active
War to Gain Advantages Of
Territory in Northwest.

Special to The Journal.
Fargo, N. D., Oct. 15.-As the latest
move in the great game being Waged
between Hill and the Soo for the rail
road supremacy of North Dakota, it is
announced here that unless something
of great moment8oc to change the
plan, the Great Northern next fall will
have a new line in operation between
Fargo and the Canadian border.
The new line is to beia direct route
between Fargo and Minot, branching
off from the Aneta line at Ayr and run
ming northwest in almost an air line to
Minot, paralleling the 500 for almost
the entire distance. At Minot it is to
connect with the new branch line ex-
tending by way of Kenmare to the
International boundary Surveyors have
been in the field for the last two months
mapping out the route, and it is now
announced that the line is to be built
next summer.
Ever since the 500 entered North
Dakota there has been war to the knife
idly building lines into what had be-
fore been exclusively Great Northern
territory and the Great Northern build
ing branches to meet the competition.
~~ 500 Hits Hiu.
When the 500 built it's line from
Thief River Falls to Kenmare it cut
into territory which was rapidly build
ing up, and from which, the Great
Northern was receiving rich and con-
stantly increasing traffic. AS one rail
road man expressed it, cit hit Jim Hill
where he llves.' r. @>E
AS a part of his plan for vengeance
this latest line has been devised. It is
to run parallel to the old line Of the
500, and within four or five miles of it
for the entire distance from Valley
City to the boundary line. It will pass
thru Cass, Barnes, Griggs, Foster, Eddy,
Wells, Benson, Pierce, McHenry and
Ward counties, tapping a rich farming
country the business Of which hereto
fore has gone almost entirely to the
500. !. j g.. =. .--.
With the completion Of this line it
will be necessary for farmers on the
east side of the 500 to cross the Great
Northern tracks to ship their goods by
the former route, and the Great North
ern magnate figures that, as a conse-
quence, his road will come in for a
large share Of the traffic. which has
hitherto gone to his rival.

OPENS DAIRY COUNTRY
New Road from Fargo to Duluth VIII
Be Winner. 800 4

Fergus Falls, MINI, Oct. l5.-The
new 500 line, if it is the 500, across
the northern tier of townships of this
county, in it's route from Fargo to- Du-
luth, will open up one of the best dairy
farming sections in Minnesota.
The development of this section of
the county has been seriously retarded
by the lack of railway facilities hereto:
fore, but with railroad, it is expected
that there will be a large influx Of new
unsuitable for wheat raising, but it has
been found that it grows the finest clo-.
yer in the state, and as there Is an
abundance of pure water and ample
shelter, it is an ideal region for stock
farming. .....'t. ...- .,r -
A. well-known citizen who has just re-
turned from trip along the survey for
the line says: ri have no doubt
whatever about the proposed line being
built, and expect to see the cars run
ming in time to haul the next crop. 1
learn that the surveyors started out
from Duluth in February and have
from fifteen to twenty men in the par
! ty, and the line as now located is I'M
questionably the final survey. In fact,
from the character Of the work done, it
is apparent that the company expects
to. "brush out'' the right, of way this
winter, and to begin grading as early
| as possible in the spring. -.:.,. ..
"I understand that some Of the con-
tractors who are at work on the double
tracking of the Northern Pacific from
Wadena to Fargo have applied for con-
| tracts for construction work on the new
line. The stations have not yet been
| selected, but there are going to be
| three or four new villages located in
| Otter Tail county. The grading across
this county is comparatively light and
will be carried forward rapidly as soon
as it is begun -, .,.-~..

STOMACH ON THE BRAIN.
What if a Man Gain the Whole WOrIt
 and Lose His AnuetiteE

What if Man Gain the Whole world,
 and Lose His AppetiteR
 The man with a well-bahaved stom- ach never thinks about it He eats what he likes and likes what he eats. He knows he'll enjoy 1t. because he has stomach that win easily digest It. All things look good to him; he will sit close to the table, and with a merry twinkle in his eye and world-peace expression,fhe will start" on the deli- cious meal before him.
 But the man with the bad, brashy, gurgly stomach is the man who is al- ways thinking about 1t. He can sell ldom eat what he most likes. and seldom likes what he eats. His, stomach wor- ries him before meals. after meals and between meals. It is on his brain. It robs him of his cheer and interferes with his daily work, Around him is a dark spirit which presses itself for- ward in his thoughts. crying: T am agony. 1 am disgust. I am nausea. am sickness. languor, worry. ! am conceived in quick lunches and pappy food, and nourished by guipy meals. I rob brains of their force and bodies of their life. I steal away nerve and vim. I bring heart disease and apoplexy. l make the world a pit of wearlness and darkness. am woe, I am death. l am dyspepsia. But yet. I bring. also hope light and future health. because by my gloomy presence I give you warning and a chance to escape me"
 This Is bad dream, but 1t is the daily dream of the dyspeptic. If It were not for the white we couldn't tell the black If 1t were not for dyspep- sia, we couldn't know the joy the hap piness of a well-ordered digestion. All the world looks bright to a man of good health, and good health Is impos- sible without good, hardy stomach And any sick or weak stomach can be made a good, strong one by just talk ing something which will digest your food for you, instead of letting your tirsd stomach doit. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the most effective little tablets in the world for this very thing. If you feel bloated after eat- ing. or you have nausea, aversion to food, brash. irritation. sour stomach, heartburn or dyspepsia, Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets will stop 1t because one grain of an ingredient of these tablets will digest 5000 grains of food.
 Your stomach Is overworked. Let 1t take a rest. You're not yourself when you have a bad stomach These tab- has to do and make you feel bright, think clearly and give you ambition and power to concentrate your atten- ton on your work. You'll feel good .. You should always have box of Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets on your dining table. They will make you get all the good possible out of everything you eat. and you'll enjoy it
