railroad man. His occupation Is
gone. because we have gone direct
TO the railroad general managers,
the men who control the roads, and
have told them that their interests
and our interests are the same; that
we want to deal with them direct
and get our rights, and that they
deal with us direct and get their
rights. They look at 1t as we do. and
the future will be different"
"Who is the author Of this scheme
for an alliance?" he was asked.
1T is not an authorship that has
brought 1t about" said Mr.. Watson.
1T Is simply the result OF peanut
politicians having Overplayed their
hands. He has been too strong In
his demagogic statements and has
tried too plainly to set one interest
against the other. The farmers
realize that we must have the trans.
portation and the transportation in.
terests must have the farmers. By
this alliance for future operations
we have eliminated all middle men.
We go direct to the general man.
ager when we want something. not
to the railroad attorney OF the
freight agent or other subordinate.
but to the man In control. and we
will get a proper consideration. That
is the situation. pure and simple.
How about the interests OF the
man In town. he was asked.
81 can not conceive" said Mr..
Watson, wherein the town man Is
affected by this. The interests OF
the farmers are coincidental with
those of the business man. IL the
farmers prosper SO does the trades
man, and II the railroads VIII help
the farmers 1t will not in any way
affect the business man. The rail-
roads hays come to the conclusion
the farmers sSArld have Is cents per
pound for their cotton. The bust
ness man believes she same thing
so wherein Is there conflict? 1t Is
purely an alliance that will bring
together two important hterest :
that have been pushed farther apart
in the past by the spell-bindins OF
the politician and the radical laws
which have been offered and In some
instances passed by those who so
corporation batting every time they
get to the legislature. They have
heretofore told the farmers that
these things were necessary to check
the expressions OF the railroads. The
farmers have come to the conclusion
they were necessary only to keep
the politician In business and keep
ment I'm his barrel.

Age Limit Growing.

lt may seem strange to us, though
the fact nevertheless remains, that
the veterans of the grand army of Ma
poleon, weighed down by age and
glory, were men of whom few had
passed their thirty-fifth year! 1t was
time of rash and short living, with
an early age and no overtures of real
youth, time when we find Thack-
cray ridiculing De Florac for holding
claims on being still young man at
the age of So! The average man of
to-day carries the spirit and power of
youth into an age which a century ago
was regarded as bordering on the
shady side of existence, says DR.. A. E.
Gibson in the Medical Brief. The
buoyancy and vigor characteristic of
our present middle-aged man make it.
In most cases, extremely difficult to
approach any fair degree of accuracy
In determining the age of a person
passing along the ascension scale be-
tween 40 and 55. And what is said of
man refers, of course, in equal. if not
in still more accentuated degree. to
woman. One of the causes of this re-
markable arrest of old age lies un.
doubtedly in the increasing indulgence
of our time in healthy outdoor sports.

The Diary Habit DECLINING.
IDAHO

Some of our earlier American
statesmen kept diaries. But they are
little read. They fall short of human
interest. Washington's for instance,

coin would be a boon to mankind.
President Roosevelt is a prolific
writer, but he is not suspected of be,
ing d1arist What with the disap-
pearance of the diary and the decline
OF letter writing we are threatened
with a famine in historical material.
The typewriter is the foe of all conf
dences and intimacies. The tele-
phone, too, is another modern inven-
ton which cheats posterity, for it
swallows up many an interesting ex-
change of views. Great men, however.
are not the best diarists, declares the
Boston Globe. They are too self-con-
sclous to drop their reserve even
when they write for their diaries.
They see generations unborn looking
over their shoulders, and that spoils
the story. Emerson declared that Ma
poleon would not tell even himself the
truth, and often would deliberately
try to fool and cheat himself. A Ma
poleonic diary probably would be as
worthless to the seeker after the |
truth as the Corsican's lying bulletins
are.

HONEST MEDICINE
Try DIR. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS

Convincing Evidence Supported by

The Most SkepticaI.

DR.. Williams Pink Pills are doctors

Added to this is the absolute guarantee
