interest on actual cost, or true
value, or at least some of them
can do SO. To reduce passenger
rates to two cents a mile would
no doubt work a hardship on
them at this time, as business is
dull, and travel light. The rail
roads are necessary, and Missis-

single purpose of giving the peo-

at three cents per mile, see to it
that the profits are expended in
betterment of road beds, more
convenient depots, safer bridges
and more comfortable coaches.
The railroad commission has the
power to compel them to have
the improvements mentioned
made, and to reduce their pas
senger tariff would render i'm
possible many things that would
be done that the travelling public
would be greatly benefited by.
To reduce their income by a two
cent fare would cause the lend
ers of money and the holders of
railroad mortgages to tighten the
purse strings to the extent that
further building would be
stopped, with the result that the
state would suffer in that such
enterprises would be deferred
until time had proven that a two

g. Thornton the Local Agent Receives MANY injuries Regarding
Mr.. Cooper and His Medicine

Since his announcement last
week that he had secured the local
agency for the famous Cooper
Remedies, Mr.. A. @. Thornton has
been besieged with inquiries re-
garding the celebrated Mr.. Cooper
and the work he is now doing in
Chicago. In response to the ex-
pressed desire of many persons for
more news regarding this remark
aole young man and his medicine,
the following is taken from a recent
issue of the Chicago Journal:
Still more cases are heard from,
and the continued stream of hui
manity poured into the Public Drug
Co., 159 State street, yesterday in
search for the remarkable new dis
covery of medicine. The demand
for these remedies seems to grow
larger each day. Thousands of
Chicagoans who have suffered for
years from chronic stomach
trouble, catarrh and rheumatism
are being made happy every day
by the use of this peculiar remedy
sold by Mr.. Cooper.
An hour or so spent at the
Cooper headquarters would con-
vince the most skeptical person
that this new treatment is some
thing entirely different from any
thing else ever sold. AS usual,
Mr Cooper was busy all day re-
ceiving kind works and thanks
from the hundreds who had been
entirely cured by this simple
preparation.
Mr.. John Schwirtzen, living at
372 Fifth avenue, had the following
to say:

Man-of-war is a phrase applied to

which all ships are feminine. 1t arose
in the following manner: MEN of
war were heavy armed soldiers. A
ship full of them was called a man

word ship" was discarded as unnec-
essary and there remained the
phrase "a man-of-war.''

have been carried away.

and preached an excellent sermon

The members of the Farmers
Union, who ordered a car of fertil-
izer recently, received the same
Monday, and are very much
pleased with the promptness of the
way their order was handled. They
are now busy hauling it out.
The road between Monterey and
Florence is getting almost impassa-
Bile. There are some places that
are SO bad that it is dangerous to
try to carrya load over. The men
who are hauling fertilizer are carry
ing axes to brush the holes so they
can get over. We wonder if there
is an overseer. This writer does
not know who he is, but if there is
one, he ought to work the road,
for there is serious talk among the
farmers here about going before
the grand jury with the matter.
The boys of the literary society
will give a public debate at three

expect all the patrons and friends of
the school out to lend their eneour-

surprised at the progress the boys
have made in this line.
What about making Monterey a

for that purpose, and not have to
make out thirty or forty bills at the
end of each month.
