A Wonderful Clock.

A clock which the inventor claims will
run 1000 years was recently constructed
by an Englishman. The motive power
is small piece Of Rold-leaf which is
electrified by small quantity Of radi-
UNI salt. He also claims that 1t will
keep correct time but costs about one
thousand dollars to make. Among med
icinesr the most wonderful is Hostel

pounded 81 years ago. 1t should there
fore appeal to every sick man or woman
who desires to be made we'll again.
One trial will convince you that there
is nothing else like 1t for curing sick
headache, flatulency, poor appetite,
heartburn, sour risings, dyspepsia, In.
digestion, cramps, diarrhoea, or malar-
la, fever and ague. Try it today. 1t

In commenting on President Roose.
vslt's attitude toward the railroads,
Hon. VIM. ]. Bryan remarks that the
railroads find him rather easy mark.
and makes striking point against
his suggestion to centralize control Of
railroads in the federal government.
Mr.. Bryan makes plain the fact that
the people will get more benefit by
giving the States more authority than
by centralizing it in Washington.
We think Mr.. Bryan is right. The
net result of congressional or federal
action lie law against free passes and
the giving Of rebates, which results
in largely increased revenue for the
railroads with practically no benefit.
to the people. On the other hand,
the States have passed laws that will
really benefit the people by giving
them reduced passenger fares and a
reclassi6cation and reduction offreight
rates, and would still further benefit
the people if it were notfor the inter-
ference of federal judges. We do
not object to more power to the fed
eral government. but we desire still
greater authority for the States.

In an investigation in Washington
the other day President 81 B. Spen.
Ger, of the Southern Railway Com.
pany, showed that when it came to a
point he really didn't know how much
it cost per mile to run a passenger
train nor what profit his railroad re-
ceived for carrying passengers.
Speaker E. ]. Justice, of the North
Carolina Legislature. did some 6gur-
ing, however, and calculated that the
average cost of running a passenger
train ON the North Carolina Railroad
from Goldsboro to Greensboro, lS4
miles, was $54.37, while the average
revenues are $780, profit of over
200 per cent. While Mr.. Spencer
refused to admit that Mr.. Justice g
figures were correct, he was utterly
unable to show that they were wrong.
The fact is, the people have been
.humbugged for a great many years
with figures relating to railroad ex-
penses and earnings. and if the truth
should be really known it would open
the eyes of the pnblic to some won
derful things.

ROOSEVELT VS.,
". ]. BRYAN
Prediction From National
Capital Over Next
Candidates.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-Here is
the democratic presidential situation
as it is sized up by men in this city
who make it a business to know what
is going on in politics.:
Bryan can have the nomination if he
wants it. He will take it, provided he
thinks no democrat can be elected,
thus making himself a voluntary sac
rttice to the party; he will take it, pro-
Vided he thinks he can be elected; but
he will not take it, provided he thinks
another can be elected and that he
cannot be.
And here is the republican situation:
More and more, day by day, the re-
nomination of President Roosevelt
seems inevitable. So strong is this
feeling all over the eastern part of the
country, among democrats as we'll as
among republicans, that interest in the
republican aspirants for the nominal
ton is vsibly waning, in spite of the
administrations effort to keep the
Taft boom moving.
With Roosevelt pitted against Bryan
it is believed here that issues would in
part be lost sight of and the campaign
waged in a measure on the personali-
ties of the two candidates. While they
do not stand for the same things, they
seem to do 50 on the surface to a good
many people; and at least they are so
nearly together on some points as to
threaten to sink issues into second
place in the contest. Should issues
form prominent feature of such a
campaign they would take somewhat
of the following form: States rights
against national sovereignty, Bryan
representing the former and standing
against Capitalization, which is the
characteristic feature of the later
Roosevelt policy. Incidentally weight
would be laid on the fact that Roose-
welt stands for federal supervision OF
the common carriers and Bryan for
ultimate public ownership of them;
and that Roosevelt wants to control
the corporations, while Bryan wants
/ to annihilate them,
