APPLAUSE FOR THE SENATE

From Topeka State Journal.
This paper always delights in giving
credit where credit is due. Therefore
Il takes special pleasure In cOngratu-
lating the state senate in finally ad-
opting the Getty and-pass bill instead
OF the alleged anti-pass measure in
trOduced under the name OF Senator
Porter, but supported by the cham
pions Of the interests"
After playing hide-and-seek on the
pass question q considerable portion Of
yesterday, the senate did the sensible
thing. The Getty bill is not as string
ent as the Stone bill that passed the
house, but twill do an immense
amount OF good The Porter bill,
while Il would have shut out public
officials from the benefits OF passes,
would not have shut on the profes-
sionaI politicians who use passes to
aid them in manipulating politics, nor
would IL have kept the raiIoads from
giving these little courtesies 10 friends
OF officials. Such a law would do lit
tie god compared with what the Getty
bill will
Besides, no one really ought to ride
free except those who are clearly en-
titled TO do 50 because OF some legiti-
mate relation with the railroads. II
other people are hauled free, the pub
lie has to pay for their transportation.

The railroad lobby has been unre-

by men in a position to know that
Postmaster Cortelyou and his assist

committee to strike out the La Fol-

The action is so bare-faced that Sen
ator La Toilette, Notwithstanding the

He probably will have something to

Tennessee. Mr.. Moon is the only man
who is said to have made a fight for
the La Toilette proposition.
It's the AIurdOck Plan.
The amendment is exactly the same

SALE
BLUEFIELD LOTS
In Addition to Five Hundred
Dollars Given Away Every
Purchaser of 5000 gets
Free Transporta-
ton.

We are in receipt of an announce
ment of an auction sale of lots which
will take place i'm Bluefeld on Oeto-
Der 18th, tomorrow week, which
should be of interest TO all our read
ers who may have little money To
invest, or who are in any way in
terested in real estate speculation.
The announcement states that 80 lots
will be sold TO the highest bidder, on
easy payments, or at a good discount
for cash, and one lot, valued at $751;
90 will be given away, and in add
dition $50. 90 in gold will be given
away Oh the occasion, also, making
$500. 90 free gifts 10 the people. To
still further induce a larger number
of buyers, every purchaser of rs much
as 5000 worth of property, his railroad
fare and expenses will be refunded.
These extraordinary inducements are
held out by the company in order TO
get people TO inspect the property.
They feel sure of sales after that.
The lots are located in what is
known as Eastview addition, an ex-
tension of Princeton Avenue, the
most important thoroughfare of the
city, leading, rs il does direct to
Princeton.~T This property we under
stand, has city water, and the city
sewerage mains are contiguous.
Princeton avenue is now being paved
and mcadamized 10y this property.
The city has already built up TO the
Eastern part of this Eastview addi-
ton. The property is within about
three squares or so of the car line,
and the Traction Company, under
the new franchise, is under contract
TO extend their lines beyond this pro-
perty within three years, but, the
rapid development and growth of the
Summit City, will force this
extension long before the initial low

To make an investment or secure n

longer a question, and whose past,
rapid and permanent growth is an
absolute guarantee of its continue =

Thomas A. Edison, the great Ameri-
CAL inventor, says: "Fully eighty per
cent of the illness of mankind comes
from eating improper food or too much
food; people are inclined TO over-in-
dulge themselves" This is where in
-digestion finds it beginning in nearly
every case. The stomach can do just
80 much work and no more, and when
you overload it, or when you eat the
wrong kind Of food, the digestive or
gans cannot possibly do the work de-
manded Of them. II is at such times
that the stomach needs help, it de-
mands help, and warns you by head

this at once by taking something that

MAKE THIS UP
AT YOUR HOME
Prepare This Simple Mixture at
Home by Shaking Ingredi-
ents Well in a Bottle.

What VIII appear very interesting to
many people here Is the article taken
from New York daily paper, giving
simple prescription, as formulated
by noted authority, who claims that
he has found a positive remedy TO
cure almost any case of backache or
kidney or bladder arrangement, in the
following simple prescription, il taken
before the stage OF Bright's disease:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Shake well i'm a bottle and
take in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A well-k1own druggist here at home
when asked regarding this prescription
stated that the ingredients are all
harmless, and can be obtained at a
small cost from any good prescription
pharmacy, or the mixture would be
put up il asked to do so. He further
stated that while this prescription is
often prescribed in rheumatic affection
with splendid results, he could see no
reason why it would not be a splendid
remedy for kidney and urinary troub-
les and backache, as ii has a peculiar
notion upon the kidney structure,
cleansing these most important argans
and helping them to sift and filter from
the blood the foul acids and waste
matter which cause sickness and
suffering. Those OF our readers who
suffer can make no mistake in giving
it trial.
