Power Of Eallinu Water.

1t is perfectly well known to every
one that water constantly dropping
upon stone will wear it away, and
there is trite old proverb regarding
this fact. The force Of a single drop of
water falling from a height is not
great, but the results of this tiny blow
when it is many times repeated are
astounding. There is a story Of one
poor wretch who was bound with his
back to stone wall and had a stream
Of water "of the bigness of a. mans
finger directed on to his bare head,
the water falling from height Of
about eighteen feet. The receptacle
from which this apparently harmless
stream trickled was a barrel holding
only twenty gallons, but before the
water had more than half run out the
man was dead, with hole in his skull
which exposed the brain.-Popular Me-
chanics.

UBSCRIPTION--s5.OO PER ANNUM
HARTMAN TO THE H0WLERS.

Mr.. Hartman stopped long
enough in Buffalo the other day to
say few things about prosperity
that the calamity prophets of Wall
street will find it hard to answer
even with the ever-ready howl. Mr..
Hartman has been travelling in the
West. He has seen things that
never loom on the vision of those
whose sight is shut in by skyscrapers
and the Trinity Church steeple.
Il have been out in a big coun-
try" said Mr.. Hartman, and I
have seen bigger things than sky
scrapers," and then he said tina t
New Workers seem to think that the
busy men of the country, the men
who do things, govern their move
ments by Wall street.
What sort of a reflector is that
you call the street, after alb" asked
this fnancier whom no one has ever
had the temerity to call fool. Its
false one, tell you. What mat
tiers it if stocks show an upward
turn of point one day and then
switch down two or five points the
next? That is no indication of the
real wealth of the country, nor Of
it's prosperity, and no reflection OF
actual conditions"
Mr.. Hartman went back East
with the conviction that the whole
country is booming. He is a judge
of substantial booms. No one can
accuse f. H. Harrison of an over
weening affection for THEODORE
Roosevelt, yet he has made the one
best answer to the men who declare
all through the working hours of the
day that the policies of the Presi
dent spell the ruin of the country

Trial Judge Comments on Minnesota
Railroad Suit.

Trial Judge Comments on Minnesota
Railroad Suit.
st. Paul, Sept. 11:-Judge Lochren,
who is hearing the rate cases in the
United States circuit court, said in
court that he doubted whether or not
the interference" complained of by
the railroads was sufficient to cause
him to declare the state rate laws in.
valid.
This Is the first comment made by
the court since the beginning of the
legal battle a week ago. The judge
expressed his views of the case fol-
lowing the arguing Of law questions
by E.. S. Roberts, representing the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
roads.
Should Judge Lochren adhere to his
opinion that the legislature did not fix
rate laws in violation of interstate
commerce acts then it is possible that
the railroads will lose their cases.
