One may say. too. that the action shifts
to Washington. where the tale introduces
diplomats and ambassadors, strange for
eigners, and faithful servitors.
One may tell Of the Port of Missing
Men. a tract OF land near his place in
Virginia. It is the faithful servant
Oscar that describes it TO his master:
There were gray soldiers Of many
batties-yes2 who fought the long fight
against the blue soldiers In the Valley Of
Virginia: and after the war was over
some OF them would not suTrcnder-nO.
but they marched here and stayed long
time, and kept their last flag, and so
the place was called the Port OF Missing
Men. They built that stone wall over
there beyond the patch Of cedars and
camped. And "a few died and their
graves are there by the cedars. Yes; they
had brave hearts and Oscar lifted his
hat as though he were saluting the lost
legion.
And one may mention, too. perhaps,
that willy Chauvenet. who plotted for Il
kingdom and failed. and tell Of Capt.
Claiborne, the impetuous. who was in

Armitage to his pretty sister. and of

WEAK STOMACH CAUSES SICK
NESS.
Different Symptoms That Result from
Indigestion-How to Cure by
Strengthening the Stomach.

If you have ever suffered with a
weak stomach you must realize that
the digestive system is to the body
what the foundation is to the house
the base of support and strength.
Whatever hurts your stomach or
lessons its power. hurts all other parts
of the body and impairs their powers.
If the stomach is weak and distressed.
one organ after another will be in
volved until the heart. kidneys and
liver are all distressed.
Get the stomach right and health
will naturally come to the other or.
gans. This explains why a good many
people who have doctored for years for
diseases Of the heart. kidneys or liver.
have at last been cured by Mona
stomach tablets. They found to their
establishment and happiness that.
when the weak stomach was strength
ened. their health returned. the heart
became regular. the torpid liver active
and the kidneys healthy.
Do not think We claim Mi-o-na is a
'cure-all" II is not. II is a specific
for all distresses OF the stomach. and
when it strengthens the stomach and
cures Indigestion, you will soon be well
all over without further medicine.

RAILROADS IN FAVOR
OF FEDERAL CONTROL
MAeNATEs IN UNITED STATES
SEEK PROTECTION AGAINST
LEGISLATION BY STATES.

| New YORK, March ia special TO
the World from Washington says:
There is a manifest disposition on
the part OF railroads throughout the
country to get under the wing of the
Federal government by cooperating
with It in the enforcement of the rail-
road rate law. so as to protect the
roads from raids by State legislatures.
f. II. Hartman has already announc-
ed that this will be his policy in the
future, and other railroad officials have
expressed similar views.
B. F. Yoakum. chairman of the
board of directors of the Chicago,
Rock Island & Pacific. has just had a
conference with President Roosevelt
and the members of the interstate
commerce commission regarding the
railroad situation He found the men,
bers of the commission ready to CO.
operate with the railroads. and he ex-
pressed the opinion that in the future
there would be better understanding
between the government and the rail
roads.
"Rebating is thing of the past"
said Mr.. Yoakum, and the railroads
are glad of Il. The new law is all
right. and the railroads have no COM
plant to make about it. There should
be Capitalization of power in the
hands of the Federal government for
the control of the railroads. am not
prepared to state whether / favor a
further strengthening of the present
laws. but the Federal government
should be in a position to protect the
roads from the action of States which
enact legislation unfavorable to the
roads, such as laws for reduction of
passenger and freight rates. BY such
Legislation is is possible for one State
to upset interstate rates by compen-
ing the readjustment of through
rates.
1T is useless to deny that the rail-
roads themselves are responsible for
some of the agitation against the roads
by their failure to furnish cars for the
prompt transportation of freight. But
the roads are not entirely responsible
for 1t: the companies which manufac.
ture cars can not secure material and
labor in sufficient quantities to fill the
orders they now have.
Attacks by State legislatures make
II difficult for railroads to raise CAPT.
tai. But for these attacks there would |
- no rTor5ie IN securing capital and |
marketing our securities abroad and |
at home. These attacks will be stop
ped when the legislatures are con-
WINGED that the National law is sufi-
cient to meet the situation and that it
is being observed by the railroads.
Il wish to impress upon the public
that, so far as / am concerned. the
road with which am connected will
respect the law. OF course it will take
time to restore confidence. but this
will be brought about. I be-
lieve there will be less trouble in the
future about raising money for the
extension of equipment, as confidence
is already being restored. The rail-
roads will do the hest they can to fur
nish the public with enough cars with
which to transport freight"

EDITORIAL

Ave yesterday had occasion to treat
of a most important matter which
beyond doubt should receive the
attention Of the House of Delegates
1t is one Of vital interest and of the
utmost, Importance.
This, however. has not been recoo-
nized by the Executive Council which
has viewed it, apparently, as tri-
vial ald insignificant affair and Of no
particular concern to us whether the
Legislature meets IN January or in
May.
This should not be the view taken
by the House Of Delegates, it is ne
cessary that this preventative body
should oppose the passage Of such a
law in order that the grim intentions
of the sinuous genius Of the congreg-
alton may be thwarted.
The sole possibility Of being heard
that rema ined to the colony, il is now
sought to block, and to take from it
the only chance of its voice reaching
the ears of the American Congress.
This suggests very painful consi-
deratious and produces harsh iudg
ments and severe characterizations.
What motives can exist for the
action Of the tutors who govern us.
in their belief that the change of the
date for holding the sessions of the
Legislative Assembly, contained in
the proposed law, would be desira-
BILE?
The country is entitled to be fully
and clearly informed on this point.
The date for holding the parlia-
mentary sessions ought not to be
changed without there being assig-
ned more reason than the unwarran-
ed caprice of some functionary of the
congregation.
