The Horse Still Leads.

The automobile has not discouraged
the useful animal, the horse. Official
reports show that the equine is still
paramount In 1905 there were 1857,
702 horses in the United States, against
averaged S30S99 last year, against
$1745O in 1892. The horse is flesh,
blood and intelligence, and people OF
natural and practical predictions can
have an affection for him. He has the
graces of instinct, and if he gets prop
er attention is a thing of beauty and
satisfaction. The spread of the auto
mobile is amazing, but it Is still to
great degree a fad and toy. 1t is
a product of prosperous times, when
men are making money and have the
means of treating themselves to novel
ties. Its best use is for heavy delivery
transportation in cities, but it has
nothing to commend it over the horse
for family driving or pleasure riding.
1t goes faster than the patient, four
footed beast. but the horse is as rapid
as is necessary. 1t goes at as great
pace as ought to be permitted in the
streets of city, and is less tempest
uous than the believing and snorting
motor Anybody with human instincts
can acquire a positive affection for
faithful horse. but who could love
greasy automobile, with its absurd
odors? The horse, the noblest of all
beasts-if, in deed. it is not shame
to call it a best-is a creature of
bountiful and beautiful nature. while
the horseless wagon is a senseless,
ponderous machine that is not bride
wise, and has to be guided at every
motion by man in a spectacular over
coat and wearing on his eyes horrid
goggles. The automobile has not adj
vanced much save in devilment 1t is
still largely a vehicle for the transpor
tation of grotesque exhibitions. 10y
atty to the horse is a sign of the best
human temperament. He is one of the
pioneers of civilization as well as one
of it's greatest finishers.

understood when the constitution was
adopted.
Such a construction, adds the Omaha
Bee. although it has been quite COM
monty entertained or assumed, would
obviously put a straight jacket upon
congress so far as concerns putting
into effect commission, fixed rates until
the courts in appeal should finally have
passed upon them. And, with its COM
panion theory that every point in rate
proceedings before the interstate com
merce commission must be appealable
and retriable in the courts, the unes-
capable result would be to throw the
whole subject of rate regulation and
railroad control in general over into
the exclusive disposal of the courts, in
fact Transforming commission pro-
ceedings into an additional source OF
delay. confusion, cost and aggravation.
Although the issue of constitutional
construction is so radical and sweep
ing that it must finally go to the SUI
preme court for settlement, Senator
Bailey has done valuable service in
enforcing upon the attention of the
senate and the public an alternative
view under which this issue can be
raised

CONSTIPATION THE CAUSE OF
DISEASE.
Natures Own Remedy.

Constipation is not only disagreeable
it is dangerous. If allowed to run
on and become chronic it will prove
the forerunner of sickness and disease.
Nature intended that the bowels should
move regularly at least once every day,
and she will not be satisfied with any
thing less. The delicate stomach and
bowels are the keystone of the arch
of the human physical organization,
and should be kept in normal working
order to preserve health When the
bowels become sluggish they require
natural and harmless laxative. Too
often they are permanently damaged
by powerful drugs taken into them sew
eral times day in the effort to force
action. Nature herself has provided
her own harmless laxative, the famous
Natural Mineral Water-Hunyadi
Janos-which can be relied on for
quick and sure results. One dose of this
water az a tumblerfuD drunk on aris-
ing in the morning (slightly warmed
for best results), will, within an hour,
move the bowels gently and copiOusly.
A bottle costs but trifie and contains
many doses. At all druggists.

ANOTHER WONDER OF SCIENCE.
Biology Has Proved That Dandruff is
Caused by Germ,

Science is doing wonders these days
in medicine as well as in mechanics.
Since Adam lived, the human race has
been troubled with dandruff, for which
no hair preparation has heretofore
proved a successful cure until New
bros Herpicide was put on the market.
1t is scientific preparation that kills
the germ that makes dandruff or scurf
by digging into the scalp to get at the
root of the hair, where it saps the vi
tality; causing itching scalp, falling
hair, and finally badness. Without
dandruff hair must grow luxuriantly

But before concluding the purchase he

from New York to Washington and
after the young man had examined the

Strong Poin to in Bailey's Speech.

The view which Senator Bailey of
Texas has urged since the opening OF
the rate bill debate and which he has
again set forth with great force. that
congress has complete power over the
Jurisdiction and procedure of inferior
federal courts, has been gaining ac-
ceptance in the senate and in public
opinion. 1t is conceded that congress
cannot alter the jurisdiction of the SUI
preme court, which is conferred direct
by the constitution itself, but it also
provides that congress shall have
power to constitute tribunals inferior
to the supreme court. This grant is in
cluded in the enumeration of the pow
ers of congress. In the article dealing
with the judiciary it is provided
that the judicial power of the United
States shall be vested in one supreme
court and in such inferior courts as
the congress may from time to time
ordain and establish
The practical point is that Senator
Bailey's Interpretation opens wide the
door of congress to destroy absolutely
the injunction power of the district and
circuit courts, so far as suspending the
rates fixed by the interstate commerce
commission pending judicial review
thereof is concerned. This would solve
one of the most formidable problems
in the effort for more efficient railroad
control, which is TO prevent the inter
minable and expensive delays insep-
arabic from judicial dealing with this
subject.
The position held by many other able
lawyers is the exact reverse, denying
outright to congress authority to an
null the injunction power of inferior
courts" any more than of the supreme
court, in which "the judicial power of
the United States" is vested by article
of the constitution; the power grant
ed to congress in article 1 TO consti-
tute inferior tribunals" having no ref
erence TO the former, and being the
grant under which congress has con
stituted a variety of tribunals, like
tribunals for adjusting claims. from
which the power of injunction and
other like powers could be withheld.
Such tribunals" according to this
view, are not courts" in the constitu-
tional sense, which vests in a court,
when congress ordains it, all the COM
mon law and historic powers, includ-
ing that of Injunction, as they were

Death Of MIS-. Raw.

Mrs. Ella Ray, wife of Thomas
Ray, residing on Palmer Street,
this city, died of consumption last
Saturday afternoon about o'clock.
Mrs. Ray was about 80 years OF
age leaves two children, Clara and
Millicent, both little girls. This
lady was reared near Gleason. She
was Miss Brown and her marriage
to Mr.. Ray took place about ten
years ago. Soon afterwards they
located in Union City. About four
years ago Mrs. Ray suffered from
an attack of pneumonia. Fro m
this she never fully recovered, and
by degrees consumption developed
until life was extinct.
Mrs. Ray was member of the
Christian Church. She was true,
good woman, a kind neighbor,
devoted wife, loving mother. She
was all these and more. She was
the inspiration of the home. She
made it sacred by the ties of true
affection and tender care, and all
the joys and sorrows of the hus-
band and little ones were shared
with her, and through her ministra-
tions it was Home, sweet home.'
The remains were shipped to
Gleason Sunday morning, accom-
panied by friends and relatives, and
laid away in the neighborhood CEN
etery.
