JOHNSON SAYS He
WOULD APPROVE
PILL ENDORSEMENT

Mr. Johnson. who represents the
submarine interests seeking the CA.
dOrscmcnt Of the Chamber OF Com.
mcrcC and the Merchants Association.
nClieVes that the pink pill resolution
proposed by business man through

entirely proper.
When addressing the representa-
tivcs OF the Chamber Of Commerce
this morning, Mr.. johnson is said 10
have made direct reference to the SUE
SCstiOn contained in last nights Bul.
Re tin.
He said he thought II would be Gu
lirCly proper for the Chamber Of Com
.mCrCC to CnuOrsc any measure or pan
aCCa that II believed would be Of use
to soldiers. Presenting that the sol
diCr5 in the Hawaiian Islands and Cuba
were suffering from dysentCry, and
prcsuming that the Chamber of Com.
mCrce knew of some remedy that had
been used would bring relief, he
thought it would be quito within the
BORDERS of good sense for the husi-
ness men of the city to recommend to
the army or to Congress or Il Congress

Therefore, Of course. IT would be

sion, the Boston Transcript gave a
review of what has been done by var
ious branches in various sections of
the country. Some OF the items or
civic industry should carry inspira-

II is Il novel plan of combining
beauty with utility which is carried
on in Texas, where pecan trees are
now planted for shade and decorative
effect, the fivc-ycar-old tree being
transplanted from the native forest,
and afterward grated with buds
from the paper-shell pecan, in year
or two to become profitable as well as
ornamental. The enforcement of en-
listing laws often affords a sufficient
outlet for the civic beautifier's ener-
giles. In Oakland, Cal, a good effect
is made by arresting violators of the
ordinance against sweeping rubbish
/ into the streets.
The reclamation of vacant lots is
another special work which has been
taken up in scores of mainland cities
as well as Honolulu. Augusta, Ga,
is among the latest to Join in this la
Dor. which adds greatly to its orderly
and tidy appearance. In Baltimore

Two Of a Kind.

Miss Hilda Englund, the young
Swedish actress, whose remarkable
portrayals of Ibsen and Strindberg
roles have brought her information FL
reputation, was recently the center of
a party of women In a little restau-
rant on the east side. During the
course of the dinner stories went
round and Miss Englund told some
incidents of her apprenticeship upon
the stage of Stockholm under the per-
sonal direction of that great actor,
August Lyndberg.
Lyndberg was an august person and
a strict disciplinarian. One day a
young actor who had already been the
victim of several reprimands and Sc
we're seedlings came in very late. He
was haggard disheveled, and showed
plainly that he had been drinking. In
a very dignified manner, Lyndberg,
who had been watching for him, ap-
preached and said in impressive
tones: "Er-er-been on a drunk
again"

actor quickly.-Bohemian

Noisiest Whistle in the World.

If a voice from Bedlam like a triple
blast of monster siren, rendering
dumb all the little noises, yelps, toots,
and whines of smaller mechanical
threats. should suddenly pierce a trav-
eler's ears. It is very likely he would
quickly cover them and wonder what
had broken loose. A hundred chances
to one, when the roaring blast had
ceased, he would seek the cause of
the uproar to register his denuncia-
ton of the giant histle trust, a noise
combine, that has throttled all the
smaller whistles in a radius of twenty
miles.
But il he sought resident of East
st. Louis-the busy st. Louis suburb
across the Mississippi-and necessar-
lily a victim of the nerve-rackins and
discordant blasts proceeding from the
manufactures, he would be told that
the seemingly terrible, three-mouthed
monster is blessing in disguise to
the 100000 people living within the
range of it's deep, penetrating blasts.
With this introduction, James Cooke
Mills writes a description of the noisi-
est whistle in the world. in The Tech
nical World Magazine.

SWEET POTATOES
IN DOUGLAS COUNTY

Superior. Wis, Sept. 22.-D. S. Ross,
farmer settled on land east of Scion
Springs, has demonstrated conclusively
the possibility Of growing sweet pota-
toes in this county and is showing a
fine lot of them which he produced
this season. The potatoes are good
sized ones and apparently as good as
those that are shipped in here from
away points. He is very much pleas.
ed with his experiment and thinks
that the business may prove quite pro-
fitable in this county if carried on in
the future.
Mr.. Ross was formerly a resident of
Iowa where he was engaged in Iarm
ing. He is very enthusiastic over the
prospects here and says that he finds
certain things can be grown to great
er advantage and profit in this part OF
the country than in other regions that
he has a knowledge of.

adequate relief, consistent with it's pow CTS and Jurisdiction, is court at all worthy of respect by decent people.
 The hard things said and written about the honorable judge who was unfortu- nate enough to occupy a position which forced him to adjudicate these matters, to my mind savor more of anarchy, dis cord and hate than is very healthful for a law-abiding citizenship. However this may be, it is true and uncontroverted that these simple issues were fairly ten dered some eight months ago: now what has been done by the authorities of the state, substantially, to meet them? Practically nothing so far as is known. In fact. as it comes to us from the press, they absolutely refused to go into the merits of the case. Be it understood that l know nothing of the facts touching it's merits. but assuredly I do not want to confiscate the Louisville and Nashville railroad any other railroad or prop erty in Alabama, and just as assuredly. l do not believe any good citizen of Alabama wishes for any such thing or to be made a party to it; then why not meet the issues honestly and squarely?
 If the act is unconstitutional or in fact destroys property or property rights then it ought to be plotted out; other wise, the state should surely win It's case. Had the bill been answered prompt ly and the facts as to reasonable rates duly served in proper shape to the court. and this cause pushed with diligence, it could. at this writing. have been passed upon by the court of appeals and sub mitted in the supreme court at term soon to convene, and early in the new year we would have been able to see the other end of this controversy and the busi- ness interests of the country settle down and adjust themselves to the then cond- tions; as 1t stands, how and when can we frOrnise ourselves this much?
 As stated at the outset. we are left to a guess as to what specific relief is to come from the extra session. It is my guess that the present act will be re- pealed and another statute enacted, as nearly as may be, a copy of the Geor- gia statutes. This will, of course. end the present litigation, but 1t will by no means end the controversy. Facts will still be facts and the constitution of the United States will remain un changed and the same live issues will have to be determined. viz; Is it con- stitutional? is it reasonable?
 We are simply up against the consti- tuition Of the United States, good and hard and may as well recognize that fact now, without having it knocked into us. I take my hat off to no man on the great questions of states rights and will go as far in that realm as ary one, but here, in this controversy, there is absolutely no states right question in- volved. The handwriting Is on the wall; read it, CALDWELL BRADSHAW.
