NEW DEPOT WANTED---BEEN
PROMISED SEVERAL YEARS

The ladies Of the Federation are
circulating another petition addressed
to the officers of the G. M. & ST. Paul
railroad asking for new depot and
better accommodations at their sta
ton in this city. We are surprised
that this step is again necessary.
This company have promised the
people of this city new depot several
years ago and every year since. Just
why they thus neglect US we cannot
understand. Perhaps if the people
of our city would give them the same
consideration they give US, they
would find a way to give US new
depot. Why not try it out? This
company usually consider such de
mands from their patrons especially
when the depot accommodations are
no better than they are, at the pre-
sent time in this city. We hope our
ladies will be persistant in this respect
and stop at nothing short of a new
depot commensurate with
the commercial demands of this city.
Ladies, if you can't get results
through the officials, take it up with
the Railroad Commission at Madison
Insist on new depot this year.

The organization of the Senate
showed its teeth at Senator La Fol-
lette's inquisitiveness in regard to the
naval bill when the Senator asked
that the bill to provide for two terms
of the circuit court at Superior be
taken up by unanimous consent.
Senator John Kean of New jersey,
the Waterman of the organization,
was Johnny-on-the-job with a call for
the regular order. 1t is customary
especially when they have the un-
animous report of committee back
of them as this bill has. But then
Superior will get the sessions of the
court without having to wait very
long. That the action was personal
to Mr.. La Toilette was apparent from
the fact that other bills purely local
in character had just previously been
passed under suspension and by I'M
animous consent.

The Investigating committee at
Madison is revealing some peculiar
methods of doing business for others
by prominent bankers and business
men. $9S,OOO.O0 is a large amount
of money, in fact it would be a for
tune for great many of us, yet bank
er Puelicher stated in his examination
at Madison recently that he paid out
that amount for Isaac Stephenson
during his primary canvas and paid
it all out in currency, keeping no
record of it in the bank books. He
simply paid it out to certain indi-
viduals and messengers, and had no
knowledge as to who it was going
to, or for what purpose. The average
citizen looks upon such testimony
with great deal of suspicion. One
naturally would ask Mr.. Puelicher,
why this money was not paid out
through the same avenues that all
other moneys were paid out by said
bank. This act alone would arouse
suspicion, and would lead the reader
to think that there was some reason
for it, and that reason was, to cover
up the uses to which it was to be
applied. The investigation thus far
while it has revealed no efforts to
bribery, it has revealed the lax and
slothful method of using large a
mounts of money in obtaining sup
port at the Primary Election.
The testimony so far reveals the
fact that further legislation is alb
solutely necessary in connection with
the present Primary Law. The a
mount of money a man can spend

The report Of the Secretary of Com
MERGE and Labor upon the conditions
affecting telegraph operators and en-
plOyees of the country which was
called for under the resolution of
Senator La Toilette passed last ses-
sion, has been made to the Senate.
The report discloses that the EN-.
ployees of the telegraph companies
are not working under as favorable
conditions as they were 25 years ago in
the matter of wages and that the
operators today are receiving less
wages than they did even year ago.
The decrease in the average of wages
is not so great in the Postal Tele-
graph Co as in that of the Western
Union.

In sickness, if a certain hidden
nerve goes wrong than the organ that
this nerve controls will also surely fail.
1t may be Stomach nerve, or it may
have given strength and support to
the Heart or Kidneys 1t was DR..
Shoop that first pointed to this vital
truth. DR.. Shoop'S Restorative was
not made to dose the Stomach nor to
temporarily stimulate the Heart or
Kidneys. That oldfashioned method
is all wrong. DR.. Shops Restorative
goes directly to these failing inside
