CONSUMPTION.
It's Cause and Suggested Means of
Recovery.

It's Cause and Suggested Means of
Recovery.
Consumption is not always an in
herited disease, and large percent
age of cases may be attributed to
the following causes:
First, defective digestion. Second,
imperfect nutrition as result OF the
first. Third, the accumulation of
morbid product in the lungs as the
result of imperfect nutrition, and
this in turn breaks down the function
of respiration and consumption is an
established disease.
The first step toward a cure is to
restore the function of nutrition, and
to this end nothing in the world eX-
cells Vinol.
1t is for this reason we want every
person in Dawson to know about our
delicious cod liver preparation, VinOl,
which is far superior to Old-fashiOned

it is made by a scientific, extractive

Albany Dispatch to Savannah Press
Says He Is Considering Leaving
an Open Field to Griggs.

an Open Field to Griggs.
The Savannah Press of Saturday
printed a dispatch from Albany that
is interesting if true 1t is to the
effect that Judge Roddenbery is Sc
riously considering the question of
retiring from the race for congress,
and The News reproduces it below for
the benefit of its readers for what it
is worth:
Albany, Ga, Feb. 15.-It is ru-
mored about in the Second district
that Judge S. A Roddenbery, who
offered himself as a candidate for
congress from this district in OppO-
sition to Judge j. NJ. Griggs, is be-
ing importuned by some of his closest
friends to retire from the race.
Judge Roddenbery has not developed
the strength in the district that was
expected by some of his supporters,
and the reelection of Judge Griggs
seems practically conceded 1t is re-
ported on good authority that Judge
ROddenbery' recent experiences IN
Randolph have inclined him to give
more serious consideration to the
suggestion that he retire from the
race. The weather was very chilly
when Judge Roddenbery was filing
some engagements in Randolph, and
the reception which he received from
the voters is said to have been no
less frigid than the weather. At any
rate, the friends of Judge Griggs
were never more confident of his re-
election than they are today"

NO FULL DINNER PAIL NOW
"soNG OF THE SOUP HOUSE"
FOR THE REPUBLICANS.

|
Majority. Talked of Money Pan
10 and Industrial Conditions.
Senator Stone of Missouri, in
speaking on the Aldrich bill, declared
that while the recent financial panic
was in part due to a shortage OF
available currency the concentration
of money at given points had much
to do with it, There was, he said,
too much of this money in New York.
The Aldrich bill he regarded as mere
! ly a make-shift in meeting the needs
of the country.
81 am opposed" he said, 'to con-
ferring these great additional favors
and powers upon national banks.
The idea of a corporation usurping
and exercising the functions of the
sovereign has always been obnoxious
to me. The power they can exercise
upon the political and industrial
well-being of the nation is enormous,
and although it is no doubt entirely
true that the national banker is as
patriotic as the average citizen, yet
money and business with him, as
with others, are generally selfish and
grasping things and dividends are
often regarded as of more Importance
than patriotism.
Too Much Power for One Man.
Referring to suggestion that the
treasury department should be con-
trolled by a board of directors rath-
er than by a single SECRETARY, he said
too much power was placed in the
hands of an individual.
He denounced stock gambling and
declared that it took out of the mar
ket too much money that might be
available for lending for commercial
purposes.
The recent panic, he said, had
ton, although that party had always
declared that it brought prosperity
upon the country.
Mr. Stone referred to the silver
issue, saying it's purpose had always
been misrepresented and that it had
been expected that the parity of all
money would be maintained under
that system. I'VE recognized the
crying necessity for additional mon
ey, he said
Would Revive Industries.
The contention that adequate in
crease of the volume of money would
revive industries, enhance property
values and labor wages had been
demonstrated by the history of the
last decade The enormous gold sup
ply had done what it was expected
gold and silver would do But the
republican party has fastened "a tax
ing system under the operation of
which grasping monopoIes are Gre
ated to plumber the people, he added.
Il prophesy that many moons will
wane before they will again point to
democrats and sing in strident chorus
the Song of the Soup House.
The full dinner pail will not again
be blazoned as an emblem of tri-
umph on the republican shield.
This panic, he said, would have
been worse had the democrats ini-
tated the example of republicans in
1896, when they seemed bent upon
making things worse than they were.
Banks then, he said, coerced their
customers as did corporations their
employees Now democrats have
striven to allay excitement, to re-
store normal conditions. When the
country is again controlled by the
party of Jefferson and Jackson he
expected to see industry revived.

and others of the same size, is the
number of subscribers. The princi-
pie of the board is the same as that
used in Minneapolis. There is not
city in the country that has better
service or more complete plant.
The new exchange is fitted with
Kellogg switchboard of the most
modern type. The latest style of
cable construction is used through
out the city. Facilities have been
increased to care for any possible in
crease in subscribers for the next
ten years. The company has at
present about $50 subscribers but adj
ditional sections can be added to the
switchboard to care for maximum
of 5000. The wire system spread
overhead is as complete as money
could make it. In but few places
are there any exposed wires, the
conductors being carried in cables to
distributing poles convenient to the
users house.
The removal of open wires on the
main streets has added to the looks
of the city and makes the work as
systematic as could be desired. At
intervals along the cable system
terminal points are placed on the
wires. These terminel points are
connected by insulated wires with
the patrons telephone. With the
exception of these main distributing
poles there are but few open wires
in the city.
While the outside improvements
have counted for a good deal thru

many things that cannot be under

The toll service of the Independ-
ent company has been greatly in
creased throughout the territory
tributary to this city during the
past year. About 60 miles of ad-
ditional toll has been added and
100 miles of additional circuit. This
amount will be increased during the
coming summer.
