days, but scaly places would appear again
and the itching would accompany them.

renewed effort to effect cure. The erup-

THE RAILROAD ATTITUDE

Whom the gods would destroy
they first make mad" This quo
tation applies to the railroad man
agement hereabouts.
The policy of railroads is an ex-
cellent specimen of business folly.
1t was such when they undertook
to fight their taxes in the most Of
fensive way. They sowed the
wind and they are reaping the
wbirlwind in a thoroughly aroused
public resentment.
Nevertheless they are not salts
fed. They now announce that
they will fight the @ cent passenger
rate legislation of Nebraska, Iowa,
Missouri and other states. They
will be beaten, but even if they
We e sure to win the result would
only be to fan the fame of public
resentment and in the end to pro-
duce more extreme measures of
control.
And now, here in Omaha, we
are told that the Union Pacific
will abandon it's headquarters en-
terprise and the Northwestern will
curtail its freight terminal plans.
In other words, the railroad
management proposes to bite off
his nose to spite his face.
Go on, gentlemen. The public
can stand it if you can. The day
of reckoning will come. The
forces of regulation and control
now slowly getting into action are
gathering strength day by day.
and every spiteful act of railroad
resentment only hastens the cul-
mination. World d-Herald.

Table Items.

Otis Hahn, Jr., has been nursing
the lnumps.
We hear John Granger has been
selling some fine colts to Jim Pet
tycrew.
Was glad to see the rest room
patronized. That is a good thing
for Valentine.
Mrs. Mary Fowler will return
this month after the wedding of her
neice at Pomeroy, Iowa.
Lots of folks from the table took
in the silver medal contest. Ger
trude Shelbourn won the first prize
ard Edna Hobson the second. Good
for the table girls.
Wonder if the city board could
not pass a law against splitting up
on the sidewalks. At a recent visit
to the city it was next to impossible
for ladies to step along the Main
street walks without stepping in
puddles of spit or their skirts dip
ping into the filth from the mouths
or throats of those bipeds who
think it manly to expectorate large
ly upon the sidewalks. Some of
our large cities impose a fine for
such, and it is not a dead law either
as many have found to their cost.
Say, what are you editors doing
now? Getting ready for the spring
municipal election we suppose by
the mud that has been thrown
about the Wakefeld's. We cad the
letter in The DEMOCRAT and saw
nothing to criticise, except that by
the time they received the letter
from the county attorney they
might all have been dead. Why
did he not take a team and a doc
tor and go out and investiga the
truth of the charge, or Phone out
or send out a physician. We un-
derstand there is doctor employed
by the county and therefore is a
health officer. If all cases.of diph-
liberia, measles, Scarlet fever, scar
let rash or scarletina, all the same
disease in a slightly different form
were quarantlned by the families,
how soon would there be an end to
epidemics so often fatal. Please
dish up our hash without mixture
of county or city mud.
Valentine Democrat., 1907-03-07
YES, WHAT DO YOU THINK
OF IT?

OF IT?
That Letter. What do you
think of it!
We suppose that everyone who
read the county attorneys letter
to Mr.. Wakefield, regarding the
quarantining of his family, formed
an opinion. That was only a nat
ural thing for them to do. Furth-
er comment was not necessary.
The Republican took up the de-
fense of the county attorneys ac-
tion automatically, which was a
natural thing for that paper to do.
We were not surprised that some
defense would be attempted, but
we did not think The Republican
would claim that the county at
torney had prosecuted every case
and every violation of the law to
which his attention had been called.
But that is not surprise either.
We would suggest for the en-
lightenment of our esteemed con-
temporary, if he should not hap
pen to know, that he may inquire
of people near Thacher regarding
complaints made against two peo-
pie living in open violation of the
law. Did the county attorney
prosecute them?
Did he prosecute anybody at
Woodlake for selling intoxicating
liquors III open VlOlaIlOn OF LIE
law!
Perhaps our local contemporary
is aware of other similar cases
that he thinks the people are not
aware of.
20, Lord, help us to infict
punishment upon our enemies who
are transgressors and to shield our
friends" is too much the policy
of those clothed in a little brief
authority.
