An electric light wire was down one
day last week near the Episcopal
church, and the negro driver of the
Marietta Ice Company's wagon caught
hold OF it to get it out of his way. The
wire was insulated, but Immediately
the negro began to dance under the
shock. He begged to be released and
prayed for help, but still the wire held
him. and he foundered about and kept
dancing and hollering. Finally the
wire got taut and he was released and
made happy, but not hurt.

Why Colds are Dangerous.

BECAUSE you have contracted ordinary
colds and recovered from them without
treatment OF any kind, do not for a
moment imagine that colds are not
dangerous. Everyone knows that
pneumonia and chronic catarrh have
their origin in common cold Con.
sumption is not caused by cold but the
cold prepares the system for the recep-
ton aud development Of the germs that
would not otherwise have found lodg.
ment. 1t Is the same with all infectious
diseases. Diphtheris, scarlet fever,
measels and whooplng cough are much
more likely to be contracted when the
child has q cold, You will see from
this that more real danger Turks in a
cold than In any other Of the connie q
ailments. The easiest and quickest way
10 cure a cold Is to take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. Tie many remarkable
cures effected by this preparation have
made it a staple article Of trade over a
large part Of the world. For sale by W.

DO THE PEOPLE RULE'
Organized Capital 10 More Powerful
Than Government

In an address before the Bankers
Convention at Denver, Woodrow VII.
son, president Of Princeton, used
this expression:
THE most striking fact about the
actual organization Of modern 90
ciety Is that the most conspicuous,
the most formidable power Is not
the power Of government, but the
power Of capital. Men OF our day In
England and America have almost fo
gotten what 1t Is to fear govern
ment, but have found out what It Is
to fear the power Of capital to watci
1t with jealousy and suspicion, and
trace It to the source Of every. open
or hidden wrong"
The reason capital Is a more for.
midable power than government" Is
because capital organized into trusts
controls Congress through Cannon In
the House and through Aldrich in
the Senate by reason Of their big
contributions to the Republican cam
paign fund and control OF that party.
With Bryan In the White House, cap
ital will have every protection but
then President Wilson will not be
forced to say that capital is a more
formidable power than government"
The trusts must abdicate.

Construction Of Road Will be Begun

SohstTuction OF Road viii be Begun
The railroad meeting at Obeene
yesterday was the best one held
since the present project has been
under discussion. Representative
business men all along the propos-
ed line were present and the prop
ostdou presentde by Mr.. H. Leon
Miller. president Of the Winnipeg,
Yankton, and Gulf railroad company
was thoroughly gone into and dis
cussed from every Possible point. Th<
ially interested IN the discussion and
business men Of 0keene were espec.
Of all those present considered the
matter perhaps the most thorough.
y.
At the close Of the discussions,
the committee listened to Mr.. H.
Leon Miller explain his proposition
still more fully, and then they be-
came entirely convinced that nego-
tiations had actually been made for
a bmi fide bond issue Of $1,000, 900,
and buyers for the same found who
will take them as soon as they are
convinced that a road such as
contemplated Is surveyed and the
preliminary arrangements made for
the beginning Of Its construction.
The representatives present were
mostly stock holdres in the North
western Oklahoma Development Con
pany which was organized some time
ago to raise funds necessary to
make preliminary arrangements for
the construction OF the road.
1t was decided to have this COM
pany continue the work planned, anG
Mr.. w. E. Miller was elected as
general booster and financial agent
to raise a small sum, and push
the road along, after which the
the Northwestern Oklahoma Devel-
opment company will join the Win
nipeg Yankton and Gulf Railroad Cor
pany and a road will be built from
Winnipeg, Canada to the Gulf of
Mexico.
All this will not be attempted at
once, however. For the present, the
road will have Great Bend, Kansas,
and Oklahoma City as terminals,
with a branch line from some where
near Alva to the coal fields of New
Mexico.
1t is intended that the actual con-
struction of the road from Great
Bend to Oklahoma City will be
begun by December first of this
year, and that it will be completed
with trunk line connections at both
ends by December 31st, 1909.
Everybody here knows the ability
of W. E. Miller to make this pro-
jet ago and there is every reason
to believe that he will be able to
bring to a successful consumaton
every detail necessary to start the
actual construction of the road
