Mr.. Harriman's prediction was made
at the time that the Burlington was
fighting for the overland mail contracts
and the Moffat road was expected to
form the link which would give Mr..
Hartman a black eye in the fight for
this business. Mr.. Hartman began

laying heavy steel. He said that when
this work was completed three days

The readers of this paper will be
pleased TO learn that there Is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages. and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure Is
the only positive cure now known 10
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces Of the system, thereby des
troying the foundation Of the disease
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing It's work. The
proprietors have SO much faith In It's
curative powers that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that 1t
fails to cure. Send for list of testi.

Kentucky and the Law.

James Lane Allen once wrote a book
under the title of The Reign of Law,
upon which some wit remarked:
The reign of law? Friend Allen,
you're lucky. 'Tis the first time it ever
rained law in Kentucky"
1t is raining there nova regular
downpour, accompanied by lightning
But when the other signs of the tenn
pest are gone by, the reign Of law will
survive and peace will exist in a new
way in the dark and bloody ground"
The tobacco war has been waged
with more or less activity since the
spring of 1905. 1t has involved the
loss of more than a score of lives, the
beating or other injury of hundreds
OF citizens, the burning Of warehouses
and other property worth close to two
million dollars. and the complete ter
r%orization of a large part of the
state. SO that normal life in the coun
try and even in the city has been i'm
possible. 1t had existed unchecked
and had even been ~leniently tolerated
by the state administration for two
years before Governor Wilson assum
ed ofice. In the few months of his
administration he has struck with
heavy hand upon marauders, has Sc
cured the evidence upon which scores
of them will go to the ~penitentisry
has policed practically the entire
state with militia, and has restored
the liberty OF action Of his fellow-citl
gems guaranteed them under their con,
stitution.-John l. Mathews, in "Suc-

967,371 were on the lists.
From 1866 to 1904 the army of PEN
sioners increased eightfold. In the for

at a standstill from 1900 until two
years ago, when there was a loss of
$4,000.
Since 1866 Uncle Sam has paid out
in pensions $S,6OO,O0O 900. This is al
most four times the amount of the in
terest bearing debt. Within recent
years the total pension payments have
been about $140,O0O,000, more than

WANTS HIS WIFE tanned.
Lons-sufferins Husband Appeals for
Federal Aid.

Washington.-In an imposing docu-
ment, covering AZ solid typewriter
pages and teeming with reports of
flstic encounters and contact with
stove lids and other domestic weapons,
a South Boston man appealed to the
department of justice for assistance
in triumphing over the temper and
strength of an amazonian wife.
The harassed one, whose name is
not divulged. depicts all the vicissi-
tudes of an unusually strenuous mar
ried life, including four arrests 'on
trumped-up charges" conviction of
perjury, heart-throbbing pen picture of
his period in jail, stories of flying fat
irons, a disobedient son who assaults
him and a pleasure-loving daughter.
The correspondent declares that, al
though the Boston police have slight
ingly declared him insane, two alien
lists have examined him and swear it
isn't so. However. he says, he really
ought to be "after such - of life
with such a of n wife"

Members of Atlantic Fleet to Lose Vote

1875 recruits. The territories are not
unrepresented. There is one from
Alaska, two from Arizona and six from
New Mexico. The District of Colum-
bia sent $50 men.
Three hundred on the fleet are
classified as foreign or address not
given.
AS a matter of fact, nearly 100000
men in the employ of the military
branch of the government will not
vote-60,000 soldiers and 10000 sail
ors and marines. In the navy the
only chance that an enlisted man has
of voting is to get leave and go home
at his own expense. Few do this. Of
iicers here say that 1t is the custom
on all ships to have ballot box where
the men vote, but this is only to sat
isfy the curiosity of the men them
selves. It has no effect on the re-
suit.
Whether soldier may vote depends
on the laws of the state in which he is
stationed. Some of the states allow
the men to acquire residence, while
others do not. The war department
says that it has been the experience
of years that the soldiers seldom
avail themselves Of the privilege even
when IL IS open.
