cheap money is resource of known po- tentiality in material development Then why should it not be encouraged rather than discouraged? The best inter ests of the state absolutely demand that this statute be repealed.
 How about rate regulation? Two much has already been written and said on this subject for the good or either the state or the railroads. It is sufficient for what l have to say, to state that the first session of our legislature last winter passed an act prescribing the rail- road rates on passengers and freightS in Alabama, and that very soon after it's approval the Louisville and Nashville and all other railways in Alabama filed a bill on the equity side, in the federal court at Montgomery, alleging jurisdic- ton, and resting the case on the facts that the act complained of was repug- nant to the constitution of the United States, in that sought to regulate or inerfere win inerstate commerce and that it was in effect confiscatory that Is, in the destruction of or taking property without due process of law and incident ally the interference with vested rights. It also prayed for injunction against en- forcement of the act on the ground Of irreparable injury. It will thus be ob- served that the questions raised by this bill are solely directed against the con- stitutionality of the act. If this is true, then the supreme court of the United States is sole final arbiter and tribunal before which this question is to be finally settled. What does it matter then wheth- CT this case goes to that court by appeal through the federal court of appeals or by writ of error from the supreme court of the state? It would seem to be case that could be mustered with better grace through the federal court
 There is but one point of law and only one fact pending back of all this noise and turmoil, viz: Is the act consttu- tonal? Is the rate prescribed reasonable? Or is it confscatory? Two very simple propositions and should be easy of ascer- tainment as the language of the consti- tuition is very plain and the facts. are available These simple issues were ten dered by the bill early last spring and upon preliminary hearing on application for injunction. the court had to tane every allegation of the bill as true, un- der the rules of the court and the in- junction was issued. That simply meant that the state must meet the issues ten dered. upon their merits. That the court had full and complete jurisdiction to try and determine the issues presented cannot for one moment be doubted: con current, it is true, but none the less positive. and just how Judge Jones could have done less than he did, with due re- gard for the court over which he was presiding and his own reputation as lawyer filling a judicial position, l am wholly unable to see. court that can not or does not, give full complete and

A NATION OF CRlPPLES
Rheumatism Beyond Controi-The
Only Hope to Rheumatic Suffer
erS is Uric-O Treatment

| III rheumatism continues to spread as 1t has
in the past few years, it would seem as though
we would before long become a nation of
cripples. The terrible destructiveness OF this
disease Is apparent on every side of us. Al
most nine out of ten of the cripples one meets
had their affection brought on by Rheumatism.
How many thousands more there are that are
hopelessly bed-ridden and whom we never
see. Rheumatism from the very nature OF
the disease, can never cure itself and if neg
lected, is bound to grow worse rather than
better. If you ever have any twinge OF Rheu-
matism go to M. r. Burt's drug store right
here in Middebury and get bottle of Uric o,
the wonderful new Rheumatic Specific. 1t
will cure you and it is the only treatment in
the world that will cure you permanently and
thoroughly. Uric o cures by its direct action
on the muscles, blood and kidneys. 1t seeks
out the poisonous Uric and Rheumatic Acid
and drives it from the system and it is only a
treatment of such nature that will ever cure
Rheumatism. Liniments and plasters only
serve to drive it from one spot to another.
They never cure Rheumatism, because 1t is
primarily blood disease, and until the blood
is cleared from the poison, cure cannot take
place.
There never was case of Rheumatism that
Uric-O could not cure and you should not put
off taking it because it is in the end far the
cheapest method. You can test Uric-O free
Of charge if you wish. lust cut out this adj
vertisement and send il to the Smith Drug Co.,
Syracuse, n. Y, and state that you have never
used UricO and would like to try it, They
will send you free sample which you can
test and try free of charge.

tain, which is the third highest peak in
the State. Mr.. Battell is devoted to the
preservation of the forests. that is, their
use and not their abuse. Whatever may
be the outcome in regard to the Ellen
mountain tract he will leave to the State
of Vermont forest track of about 1900
acres. including Cancels Hump noun
tain. The gift or legacy, however, is to
be coupled with the provision that the
name of the mountain shall be changed
from Cancels Hump to Mount Ethan
Allen. This is the fourth highest peak
in the State, the highest being Mt. Mans
field, the second, Killington and the third
Ellen Mountain.
Joseph Battell, the man who is thus
to such a remarkable extent a public
benefactor. is philosopher and scien-
fist as we'll as connoisseur of horse
flesh. Mr.. Battell was forced by i'll
health to leave Middlebury college before
he had finished his course, but ali through
his active and successful career he has
continued his studies. In addition to
Morgan Register and still more volum-
nous American Stallion Register, the first
volume of which is nearly ready, Mr..
Battell has for number of years devot-
ed himself to combating the undulatory
theory of matter. In this effort he has
written a remarkable book entitled Gel
len" in which he develops his ideas of
matter and the meaning of life in the
form of novel which centers about his
beloved mountain, likewise bearing the
gentle name of ELLEN" In combating
the undulatory theories of matter and
light so long taught in the schools and
universities, Mr.. Battell bases his argu-
ments largely upon the newly'discovered
properties of radium and the Roentgen
ray which so defy the old ideas.

To Breed Better Horses
Continued from page G.

the third being nearly ready. This scien-
tific work. the first volume of which Is
of 1900 pages, and the second of 500
pages, includes the registration OF Nor
gan horses throughout the country, even
including Texas. When the government
bought its Morgan horses last year three
of them were secured from Mr.. Battell
and the suggestion WAS soon afterward
made that while the government had the
horses it had no farm of its own to use
for breeding purposes. Mr.. Battelrs first
idea was that he would rent part of his
Weybridge farm to the government at
nominal sum, but he finally concluded to
give it outright. Senator Proctor inter-
ested himself actively in the matter and
consulted with Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson in regard to it. Finally, late last
necessity of the case by enacting
special law permitting Mr.. Battell to pass
title to the government and this has now
been done. The 400 acres which the
government thus secures include 300
acres of farm land and 100 acres of forest
land.
A PROPOSED FOREST RESERVE.
Joseph Battell was born in Middle
bury, Vt, in 1889, and for the past 30
years has maintained the Bread Loaf Inn
at Ripton, VT In addition to the gift of
the Weybridge farm Mr.. Battell has
made tentative proposition to give to
the national government, in the inter
est of forestry, splendid forest track
of 1000 acres in Addison and Washing
ton counties as forest reserve. This
tract includes the beautiful Ellen noun

BIDS FOR CANAL BONDS.
Confidence That the Issue Will Be
Oversubscribed.

Bids for the new Panama canal issue
continue to be received at the Treasury
Department. and the officials are conf
dent that the $50,0OO,0O0 will be largely
oversubscribed. A rough estimate of
the number of bids which will have been
received by 4:3O o'clock this afternoon
places the total at about 1900. and, judg-
ing from statements made in person or
by letter to the department. 1t is thought
there will be quite a large number rang
ing from $1.O00,OOO each to 5000, 600 and
over. The prices offered, it is confidently
believed. will be entirely satisfactory
from the Treasury point of view 1t is
now understood that the result Of the
bids will be given to the public some
time this evening.
