build a road than buy one. Yet Mr.. Hill
bought the Burlington and has always been
highly pleased with his purchase. At various

few months Mr.. Hill has asserted that the
need Of the railroads il not an increase Of cars
and equipment but of more tracks and ter
minals and that the great difficulty il to get
the latter. Blu after all there IL nothing in

means is that IL he could build as easily as he

New ork, with it's great population

while California, more than double the

What political necessity there can
be for 145 independent counties in
Georgia, each with a separate govern
ment, organization and expense, is a
problem, but perhaps the reason is the
same which has added to the number
of counties in Texas until there is now
246. In one of them at the presiden-
tial election of last year only % votes
were cast, in another 120, in another
$50, and in a fourth 60. The propen-

Vestry, Miss, JAM LIST Especially
The case of Mrs. C. w. Pearson, who
resides here, is particularly inter
esting one. Here is the story told by
Mr.. Pearson, her husband, in his own
words. He says
my wife's health was bad for a
long time. Last July she was taken
terrible bad with spasms. | sent for
the doctor, and after making thor
ough examination of her he said I'M
: doubtedly the cause of her trouble was
a disordered state of the Kidneys.
His medicine didn't seem to be doing
her much good, SO as I heard about
Dodd's Kidney Pills, got her a box
just to give them a trial. Well the
effect was just wonderful. I saw that
they were the right medicine and
got two more boxes. When she had
taken these she was SO much better
that she had increased thirty pounds
in weight. She is now quite we'll, and
we owe it all to Dodd's Kidney Pills. "

AIDING THE WORKINGMEN.
A Unique Enterprise Started by Stock
holm institutions.

An interesting combination OF build
inc associations and life insurance has
been started by Capt. Adlerstrahle
for the workingmen of Stockholm.
The main idea is to assist a worthy
man in securing his own home on easy
conditions and at the same time ena-
BILE him to carry a substantial life in
surance for the protection of his fam
lily. The annual payments are to APP
ply on the purchase of his home, the
interest on the mortgage and the pre-
MUM on the life insurance. At the end
of fifteen years, if all goes we'll, the
man will own tract of land and a cot
tage which cost 5000 kroner, and will
have paid-up policy for 1900 kroner.
The plan is supported by the Gus
tat Adolf association, of which Capt.
Adlerstrahle is secretary, and the
Bragg Life Insurance company
Four tracts of land in the suburbs
of Stockholm, all easily accessible by
railway, have been secured. The de-
tails as to payments have been ar
ranged and the plan will be set or
foot at once.

Tyrannical Ordinances of Bobrikoff
Not Removed.

/ TyrannicaI Ordinances of Bobrikoff
| Not Removed.
/ Finland is greatly disappointed over
the much lauded concessions granted
by the czar. They are more shadows
! than substantial reforms, and although
conditions are much improved with re-
gard to the oppressive measures of
| the Russian police, the restoration of
| the ancient rights of the Firms has
rannical ordinances promulgated IN
der the Bobrikoff regime has been re
ipealed
| Among the ordinances which the
/ Firms hoped to see repealed were the
! following:
Providing for the summary dismis-
| sal of officials; the regulation which
| forbade any one to bring action
against any official except after OBJ
| tanning permission from his superior;
| the prohibition of meetings; the en-
| Dloyment of Russian gendarmes in
| Finland, and the inclusion of them in
the Finnish estimates, which involves
an expenditure of more than 100000
Finnish marks; and the necessity for
| obtaining the governor generals per-
mission for the converting of church
| synods.
| Then there were other measures in
| troduced by Bobrikoff, such as the fol
| lowing:
The employment of Russians il the
Finnish public service; the substitu-
| ton of the Russian language for the
native tongues, Finnish and Swedish.
| in all the more important public de-
partments; the transfer of the gov
ernmental power from the Finnish
senate to the governor general, IN
whose person the administration OF
| the country, apart from the dictator
/ ship, has largely been focused; and
above all, the manifesto of Feb. Is,
1899, by which the principle OF autoc-
racy was virtually proclaimed in Fin
| land
The car made at the last moment
of the session concessions on two
points only in SO far as the army edlct
Of 1901 was suspended, and the prin-
ciple that judges should be irremov-
able was restored. Though these con-
cessions did not materially alter the
situation they were at that time taken
as good omen for the return of legal
conditions, and the estates decided to
proceed TO the voting of grants.
No summons for an extraordinary
diet has so far been issued, and there
| is little chance of it's being convened,
since the senate has received instruc-
lions to elaborate and has elaborated,
plan for a provisional regulation OF
the budget for 1906 and 1907. The
| senate has therefore recommended to
the car that a diet should be con-
voked. There are many questions in
volving grave constitutional princi-
Piles which still remain unsettled and
the temper of the Finlanders has been
sorely tried in many. ways.

oDD.THING ABOUT GOLD.
Purest Coins Ever Minted Too Soft for
Money Purposes.

Money Purposes.
Few people know the real color of
gold, because it is seldom seen except
when heavily alleged, which makes it
much redder than when it is pure.
The purest coins ever made were
the $50 pieces which were once in
common use in California. Their coin
age was abandoned because the loss
by abrasion was so great and because
their interior could be bored out and
filled with lead. They were octag-
onal in shape, and were the most val
liable coins ever minted and circulat-
ed.
All gold is not alike when refined.
Australian gold is distinctly redder
than that taken in California. More
over, placer gold is more yellow than
that which is taken from quartz. This
is one of the mysteries of metallurgy,
because the gold in placers comes
from that which is in quartz. The gold
in the Ural mountains is the reddest
in the world.-Philadelp Inquirer.

she maintained that the time was now
ripe for united work on the general

Gated by the late Adolf Hedin. The
future lay not in isolation and enmity
