How easy it is to credit legislators
with sinister motives. There are hum
dreds of thousands of people who be-
lieve that but for the corrupt inftu-
ence of the express companies, this
country would have a parcels post.
Yet the fact is that the parcels post
does not come because the people or
the villages and towns and smaller
cities are absolutely opposed to 1t.
And this opposition is based upon the
belief that the parcels post would
greatly injure them. The express COM
panies are undoubtedly opposed to the
enactment of the law and all the I'M
fluence they have would be thrown
against it, but it would come just the
same if the people did not believe that
in hitting the companies they wouli
be injuring themselves by building UP
the mail order houses.

WORK WEAKENs THE KIDNEYS
Doan's Kidney Pills Have Done Great
Service for People who Work in
Greeley

Most Greeley people work every
day in some strained, unnatural
position-bending constantly over a
desk-riding on jolting wagons or
cars-doing laborious housework
lifting, reaching or pulling, or try
ing the back in hundred and one
other ways. All these strains tend
to wear, weaken and injure the kid
neys until they fall behind in their
work of tiltering the poisons from
the blood. Doan's Kidney Pills cure
sick kidneys, put new strength in
bad backs. Greeley cures prove it.
o. e. Paulson, stone mason, OF
1903 Sixth avenue, says: Like the
majority of men of my occupation I
have had several acute attacks OF
kidney complaint during the past
few years, never severe enough to
lay me off work, but sufficient to
make me feel very miserable. After
being in stopped position for some
little time it was quite difficult tc
straighten up. Ihe laSt atCack mao
was some time during this last sum
mer, when l went to Fl. Reynolds &
Company's drug store, corner OF
Eighth street and Ninth avenue, and
asked for something that would re-
lieve an aching back. Mr.. Reynolds
advised me to try Doan's Kidney
Pills. l did so and it did not re-
quire more than half the box tc
make my backache disappear. My
wife took the balance of the box and
they helped her also.'

In extent to the great agricultural
states of Indiana, Illinois and Iowa,
with three or four smaller eastern
states thrown in.
A Northland Singer.

One of the most pleasing song re-
citals or concerts given here in many
day was that by Miss Olivia Dahl,
the Norwegian singer, in Unity
church last Wednesday evening.
Miss Dahl has figure as healthy
and rugged looking as the mountains
of her north-home country Her
voice was equally healthy, and yet
was capable of tender and soft ex-
pressions. The auditorium was far
too SMALL, however, for voice of
that qaulity, and some of the beauty
was lost by the singers attempt at
modulating it to the surroundings.
AS is most often the case when
anything of real merit comes along,
people do not know what they will
be missing until the attraction is
gone, and it is too late to recall.
Probably not more than twenty-five
or thirty persons greeted the singer.
Miss Dahl sang in German, Nor
wegian and English. The Norweg-
ians are musical race, not so far
behind the Germans and Italians,
and they have an especially rich
fund of SO called folk songs. OF
these Miss Dahl gave several num-
bers as conclusion to the concert,
she appearing in native costume.
This part of the concert was not the
least pleasing Of the whole.
The singer was accompanied by
Miss Gina Smith, an unusually tai
tented pianist, who gave two solo
numbers, that were quite as we'll re-
ceived as the songs by Miss Dahl.

Railroad Gazette on Burlington
Colorado Extension

According to the Railroad Gazette,
which is the leading r; ilroad trade
Journal in the country, contracts
have already been let by the Burl-
ington railroad for extension of its
lines in northern Colorado and
Wyoming. But the general unreli-
ability of news in trade journals
makes it hard to tie to any report.
News of this character unusually
comes through clipping bureau,
and are taken from the daily papels
of the country.
The Gazette" says:
Contracts let to Guthrie & Co.,
Of St. Paul, Mimi, for building an
extension from Frannie, in the
northern part of Big Horn county,
Wyo., southeast through Lowell and
Basin to wellington, and thence
south to Worland, 91.05 miles. The
work includes three steel bridges and
the excavation of about 22,0O0 cubic
yards to the mile, l6 per cent of
which will be rock. The maximum
grades will be sixteen feet to the
mile. Seven miles of track are laid.
This is being built under the name
of the Big Horn railroad.
This company has filed amended
articles of Incorporation in Wyom-
ing. 1t is understood that the
Burlington will not use its Alliance
Guernsey branch as main line
through Wyoming, but will extend
its Holdrege-C Cheyenne line west
through southern Wyoming to Salt
Lake City. Branches from a point
on this line near Laramie, south to
connect with the Denver-Lyons line,
and north to connection with the
Frannie- -Thermopolis now under
construction south toward the Wind
river Indian reservation, would fill
out this general scheme of develop
ment. The Guernsey line could
then be extended to connection
with the Denver-Frannie north and
south line in Wyoming at point in
the coal and iron fields about fifty
miles north of Laramie, and even
tually southwest to connection
with the main line running from
Holdrege through Cheyenne and
southern Wyoming. With the COM
pletion Of this work the Burlington
would have direct connection from
Denver to the Pacific northwest and
also from the east to Salt Lake

ment of the road, but that reports are
sent TO him, and frequently officials OF
the road come to Washington to consult
him. After getting into the records,

lowed to proceed. 1t was stated by

agreed with the suggestion by Senator
Morgan that II change is made by
which the canal is built by contract

sufficient for the governments needs.
No matter how the canal IS built"
he said. there are two things over
which the United States should always
