New Process Of Welding i'm Use
at Albuquerque.
The Thermit Method Receiving
Trial in Santa Fe Shops.
SAVES TIME AND LABOR
Unnecessary to Dismantle En-.
CINE for Repairs.
Other Items of Interest in
Railway Circles.

Albuquerque, N. NJ. March 31.-Some
200 officers and employees of the Santa
Fe shops, including Master Mechanic
George of Albuquerque. and Master Me-
chanic Daze. of Winslow. witnessed a
very interesting demonstration of weld
ing steel by the Thermit process in the
machine shops here.
The use of the Thermit process prom
ises to work a revolution in locomotive
repairing and the process has now been
sufficiently tested to prove that 1T is
practical in every way. The process
works a tremendous saving of both time
and labor and a consequent saving In
expense. Under the old system it was
necessary for the repair of a fracture
of a locomotive frame to strip the loco
motive, detach the fractured part and
take it into the blacksmith shop Tor
treatment with fire and hammer,
long and expensive process.
With the Thernit process the Weld
ing nay be done without stripping the
locomotive or detaching any OF the
parts other than are necessary TO give
access to the broken part.
The demonstration was mace py n.
S Mann, representing the Goldschmldt
Therulit company of New York. the
American corporation having the rlghts
in this country to the Thermlt process
discovered and introduced by the Ger
man scientist of that name. He IS
travelling over the Santa Fe system, in
structing the employees of the several
shops in the use of the process, when
has already been introduced along the
system but which has not, thus 1ar'
been found entirely satisfactory, pc
cause of lack of experience among the
employees in it's use.
The demonstration was made upon a
fracture of an engine frame, the frame
being undisturbed, and was entirely
successful. The entire operation cover
ed only about four hours: whereas, I'M
der the old system the repair of SIM
liar fracture would have occupied sew
eral days.

MONEY HAS A PLAN.
To Stop Attempts at Curtailment Of
Southern REPRESENTATION.

Washington, March 31.-While
there is little probability of the adop-
ton by congress of Senator Moneys
joint resolution directing the supreme
court of the United States to investi-
gate the validity of the method of
amending the fourteenth amendment
to the constitution. the measure is at
tracing considerable attention. and it
is understood Mr.. Money may make it
The resolution is intended to coun-
teract in public opinion the bills
which from time to time are intro
duced for the purpose of limiting the
south because Of the curtailment there
of the franchise privileges of the ne
groes. 1t is claimed congress has the
right to make such curtailment under
the provision in question and Mr..
Moneys proposition is intended to
show that the amendment itself came
into existence by unconstitutional
methods.
In his preamble he asserts that the
journals of the senate and the house
of the Thirty-ninth and Fortieth con-
crosses show that there was neither
two-thirds vote of the two houses
for adoption nor a three-fourths' of
the states in ratification of the con-
gressiona1 action as required by the
constitution. This defect, If such it
proves to be, was of course due to the
fact that the southern states were not
on account Of the rebellion at that
time acting as part of the union, and
if the question should go to the courts
it's adjudication would involve the de-
termination of the point whether the
absence of the representatives Of some
of the state from congress on account
of the secession of the states had the
effect of abrogating the requirement
of the constitution and the same point
would arise in determining the ques-
fiOn of ratification

THE PUBLIC BENEFITED
Topeka People Greatly Interested
in the Generous Offer of Fred
A. Snow, the Druggist.

The people have already demon
strated that they would rather trust a
man who is naturally honest, than one
who was honest only because he had
to be.
Shows drug store has a firmly es-
tablished reputation for square dealing
and sterling honesty. When they told
the people that Rexall Remedies are
the purest and most dependable reme-
dies that it is possible for modern
science to produce, and that they
would tell the public exactly what each
one of these 300 remedies contained,
and that they sold Rexall Remedies
on their own personal guarantee that
they would give entire satisfaction or
the medicines would not cost the user
single cent, they were believed.
Ever since this announcement Fred
A. Shows drug store at 523 Kansas
avenue has been crowded by people
buying Rexan Remedies; all of which
fidence of the people and that honesty
is the best policy.
There is no "cure-all'' among the
Rexall Remedies,-there are 300 differ
ent and separate medicines; one for
each human Ill, ana each unQueStiOn-
ably the best of it's kind.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are par
ticularly recommended for the positive
cure of stomach irritation, indigestion
and dyspepsia. They are rich in Bis
muth, Subnitrate Pepsin and Carmina-
tives. and are prepared by a special
process which perfects and enhances
the great curative value of these we'll
known medicinal agents. This remedy
sells for 25c. a package. Everyone suf-
fering from a stomach disorder should
try Rexan Dyspepsia Tablets, mas
much as they cost nothing if they do
not satisfy.
Fred A. Snow is certainly fortunate
in securing control Of the sale of these
remedies, and he urges everyone in
need of medicine to investigate and
take advantage of this frank and gener-
Gus offer.

MUCH TROUBLE AHEAD.
Tariff Revision Seems Likely to Be
Some Time Delayed.

Washington, March 31.-There is
imminent danger that the Payne tar
if bill may be delayed in it's consider
alton by the house. President Taft
was in conference with Speaker Can
non, Representative Payne, the floor
leader and Representative Dalzell,
pennsylvania. Contrary to the usual
practice as to such meetings the con-
ference was not held in the executive
offices, but in the red room and it
lasted an hour and a half. While
nothing could be learned as to the de-
termination reached at this confer
ence it is understood the house lead
ers impressed the chief executive with
the unfavorable situation regarding
the tariff bill and difficulty being ex-
perienced in getting the Republican
members in line to vote for a rule
which would expedite the passage of
the measure
1t is conceded by several Republic
cans that it would be impossible to
pass rule restricting amendments to
the bill until some time next week and
then only by granting the demands
made by a number of members that
certain important schedules be open to
amendment
Those members who oppose a eau
Gus do so on the ground that it would
attract the attention of the country, to
the fact that the members of the ma
Jority in the house are at odds regard
ing the bill. AS means of settling
the differences and securing general
support to rule restricting amend
ments to those which the ways and
means committee will offer. they pro-
pose that the committee recommend
changes taking the countervailing
duty clause on coffee out of the bill
and striking out the duty on teas.

ALL ROADS UNDER ONE HEAD.
This Would Be Harriman's Idea of
Improving Systems.

Denver, March 31.-If E. H. Har-
riman could have his way, he would
bring all the railroads of America into
one giant combination, under one
head, and begin Immediately the ex-
penditure of s250,000,000 or $30O,0o0,-
900 in improvements of the weaker
roads, both physically and financially.
In this way, he says, he believes he
could do the greatest good for the
government, the people of the United
States generally. to the shippers in
dividually and finally to the owners of
railroad stock
Mr.. Hartman spent two hours in
Denver as the guest of the chamber
of commerce. then departed on his
eastward journey.
Mr.. Hartman also declared that his
roads have spent in the neighborhood
of $350,000,000 since 1902 building
and rebuilding in the west and
through the mountains. He repeated
his assertion that he had found a
great change in public sentiment to-
ward railroads and railroad building
throughout the land.

man, ct told President Roosevelt that
he was wrong and that he would have
many imitators in various states and
cities who would do the country meal
culable harm, and what / told him
then has proved correct. Roosevelt
was wrong in his fight on me and the
railroads and the truth of this is get
ting clearer every day."

EXPENSIVE JOKER.
1t Has Cost the Consumers of Tobacco
Nearly $45,OOO,OOO.

Washington, March 31.-What is
designated as a joker that cost the
consumers of tobacco in this country
nearly S45,O00,000 has been found in
the existing revenue laws of the
United States by Representative Daw-
son of Iowa. who at once introduced
bill to correct the error.
Under the Dingley tariff law the
two ounce packages of the tobacco
sell to the consumer at five cents each
and the four ounce packages for ten
cents In 1898 a war revenue tax of
six cents pound additional was
levied. At the same time. in order to
serve the convenience of the trade,
authorization was given for the reduc-
ton of the sizes of packages from 2,
8 and 4 ounces to rs, PA and 3 u
ounces, thus enabling the smoker to
procure a five cent and a ten cent
package of tobacco "at the store"
The war revenue tax was repealed.
Somebody forgot to restore the pack
ages of tobacco to their original sizes.
and ever since 1902 the consumer of
tobacco has been paying the equiva-
lent of the war revenue tax to the
manufacturers of tobacco.
Mr.. Dawson's bill proposes to re-
store the package to the original
sizes
