PAIN TURNS
 HAIR WHITE
A Woman's Awful Suffering
 From Neuralgia.
NO RELIEF UNTIL SHE TRIED DR WILLIAMS
 PINK PILLS.
Then She Gained In Weight, the Pain Ceased and She Has
 Been In Perfect Health Ever Since.

Do not seek relief from suffering simply, but free your system from the disease which is the cause of your sui fering. That is the message which a former victim of neuralgia sends to those who are still in the grasp Of that most acutely painful of nervous d1s- eases. Hot applications, powders that deaden the senses and others that re- duce the heart action may cause tenn porary relief but the pain is sure to return with greater intensity. Neural gia has been aptly described as the cry of a starved nerve. In neuralgia the nerves need nourishment and the only way to nourish them is through the blood.
 Mrs Evelyn Creusere, who has beau tiful home at 811 Boulevard West, De- troit, Mich., suffered for years with neuralgia until she tried this tonic treatment and was cured. She says: My trouble began about six years ago and did not rest as should have, but kept up about my many duties. After 6 time became so weak could not do any work at all. had severe backaches and such dreadful head aches in the back part and top of my head. My eyes were easily tired and at times saw black spots before them. l 1 the slightest benefit. The neuralgia pains were so intense that my hair turned white.
 1 II lost continually in weight and strength and was almost in despair when a friend here in Detroit recon. mended Dr Williams Pink Pills, say ing that they did her so much good when she was all run down. So tried them according to directions and soor began to feel relief. At the end o1 three months had gained ten pounds in weight and had no more trouble with my nerves. l have been in per feet health ever since and can heartily commend Dr Williams Pink Pills" Mrs CreuSere is prominent member of the Maccabees and has served al
 president of the Woman's Relief Corps

OUR MONEYED men.

Moneyed men are, as a rule, advan.
But the moneyed man who merely
lends his money TO the people at a
good rate Of interest Is not the man
who should have great credit for the
development OF town. The money.
ed man who perchance merely owns a
good piece Of residence property and
then invests In foreign enterprises
whatever surplus he has is hardly as
great advantage to a city as the aver
age citizen who as far as he can lends
assistance in developing local re-
sources For instance, an enterprise
Is started by humber citizens who
put in a hundred or so dollars each.
The moneyed man looks askance and
continues to loan his money at 10 per
cent. The enterprise succeeds, the
moneyed man finally buys in and gets
credit for being a benefactor, He
does not deserve the credit Per-
chance the enterprise goes down hill;
the moneyed man let's it slide, or else
buys IL up and pushes II to success
Is he deserving OF any horticultural
creditY No! Logan has not few
men OF pretty fair means who have
made out OF the people what they now
have. How much are they doing to
bring Logan to the front? Perhaps
they are doing certain things, but
could they not do more? 1t looks TO

osltlons to the good of themselves and

them will do so.

NO SOCIAL REVOLUTION.

Once In while we hear expressed
the fear that we are on the verge Of
social revolution, but social philoso-
pliers, who are supposed to know more
about this question than most others,
agree that there will never be immin-
ent danger OF social revolution In
this country until the country Is over
crowded and land can no longer be OBJ
tanned. II that is so, then the danger
IS exceedingly remote.
The public domain still contains
hundreds Of millions of acres that can
be brought under cultivation, to say
nothing OF what are known as arid
lands. And recent discoveries show
that most Of these so.called arid lands
are tillable, even without irrigation.
1t is a demonstrated fact that wher.
ever the annual rainfall averages as
high as twelve inches as good crops
can be raised without irrigation as
with 1t. This means, according to an
authority on the subject writing in
the Century Magazine, that "almost
every acre OF the great plains between
the Missouri river and the Rocky
mountains and most of the inter.
mountain parks and plateaus between
the Rockies and the Pacific, will pro-
duce as abundantly as will the rich
prairie lands Of Iowa, Missouri and
illinois, and much more abundantly
than the richest OF the lands 10 any OF
the older states along the Atlantic
a-board; that there is enough land
now utilized, IL at all, for grazing only
to make possible the trebling or quad
rupling OF the present farming popula.
tion OF the United States: that the
region between the foothills of the
Rocky mountains, bounded on the
south by the Rio Grande and on the
north by the Canadian border, Is cap.
able of producing fruits, cereals, veg
etables and live stock sufficient for the
support OF the entire present popula-
tion OF the globe.

United States and its possibilities, the
safer 1t seems to bet on the country

BE OFF GOOD CHEER.

Siuce the report OF the Investiga-
tion Commission, the Salt Lakers
have been exceedingly active In spread
ing the extraordinary misinformation
contained In the majority report, and
those whose ideas coincide with the
information and recommendations
contained in the minority report have
made little or no effort to refute the
statements Of those who use the ma
jority report as basis for attacks on
the Agricultural college. AS a result,
even friends of the institution have
begun to wonder whether in truth
there is any answer to the multi tudin-
Gus charges OF the Salt Lakers.
THE REPUBLICAN offers the assur-
ance here that Salt Lake activity need
cause little apprehension. The friends
Of the Agricultural college in touch
with all phases Of the situation are
not dismayed In any sense, and lind
that the public expressions Of the
University enthusiasts offer glorious
opportunities which will be taken ad-
vantage OF at the earliest time that II
can be done with the greatest effect.
THE REPUBLICAN offers the further
assurance that many of the public
expressions OF the consolidationists
contain intended strong points that
are so absolutely ridiculous In the face
Of facts that there is disposition
here to let these cantankerous indi.
viduas lay themselves out to the
limit.
However, within the very shortest
time necessary TO prepare the matter
for publication, the friends OF the
college, will not only thoroughly and
eflectually disprove the greater por-
ton of the statments contained In the
majority report and petition to the
Governor, but will introduce evidence
to prove conclusively TO all not pre-
judict d beyond reason that the ma.
jority report is thoroughly unreliable
and that the members of that COM
mission who signed 1t INDUCED in
most reprehensbe methods TO make
the showing they did, We offer the
friends of the college the assurance
that there Is going TO We something
doing ere long and that IL will be of
such nature that they will no long
er question the unavoidable delay In
presenting the college side in this con-
troversey.
