West Points Rate Still z
Cents; Dividend in That
Figures Show Greater Profit
at Lower Rate

The passenger rate on the Atlanta
and West Point railroad viii remain
at two cents per mile. That is what
the state railroad commission de-
cided Wednesday when it denied
the petition of the employees of the
road and several patrons for an in
crease to two and one-half cents
per mile.
Much interest had been centered
around this case. as the petition for
an increase from two to two and
one-half cents per mile did not come
from the railroad company, but thru
the employees and patrons. The
argument Jsed by the employees in
the petition which was submitted to
the commission several months ago,
was that under the present rate of
fare the profits of the road were not
sufficient to justify a raise of salary
to them, while the patrons argued
that the service of the road had
been excellent, but unless the in.
creased rate was given it the same
service could not be maintained.
When word was passed along the
route of the road of the petition be-
fore the railroad commission the
patrons, who had taken the initiative
in the request, proved not to be in
the majority, for many mails brought
requests from numbers of patrons
asking that the commission deny
the petition.
The next step was taken by the
commission, which ordered certain
officials of the road to appear before
them with records of the company
showing the cost of operating the
road. the proceeds and the profits.
The same data for a period before
rate was lowered to its present price
was given also. This proved that
the road under the two-cent rate
was clearing more than before the
lower rate went INTO effect. 1t show
ed a vast increase in travel since
the rate was lowered.

THOSE SUDDEN PAINS
Are Twinges that Tell You of
Hidden Dangerous Kidney
Troubles.

When the kidneys are sick, sharp,
darling pains strike you in the back,
loins or sides-pains that almost
take your breath away, and often
make you cry out in agony.
1t is almost impossible to mistake
these kidney pains, for they seem to
center about about the small of the
back where the kidneys are located.
And still there are many persons
who think backache is merely a
muscular understanding that
is expected to pass away with a
little rest, aided by a plaster, or by
rubbing with liniment.
There is no plaster nor liniment
that will reach the inside cause-sick
kidneys. What is needed is a kidney
medicine-a kidney stimulant, to
start the kidneys working as they
should-a healing, soothing tonic,
to relieve and cure congestion and
inflammation in the kidneys.
Sick kidneys can not get well
alone. They need quick help. You
won't be rid of the trouble until the
kidneys are cured.
There is no other remedy for sick
kidneys quite equal to Doan's Kidney
Pills. They cure every kidney i'll.

Pills, | was restored to better health

The parcels post bill is likely to
come ap at the coming session of

prised to see it become law. The
queer tising about the opposition to
it is that it seems to be effective in
delaying the passage of the bill be-
cause the express companies and the
country merchants are working to-
gether. And yet the express COM
pany holds up the country merchant
more than any other class. We be-
lieve that the. bill as first drafted,

The Ballinger investigation has
ended with a practical yindication
from the Republicn majority of the
committee, the Democratic mem
bers and one Kansas Republican
member having first rendered a re-
port decidedly adverse to the accus-
ed official. The public has read
parts of the voIuminous testimony
heard before the committee, and we
believe that majority of the Amer
lean people have arrived at the con-
clusion that Secretary Rallinger,
while not guilty of any overt betray-
al of the people in his official capa-
city, was in sympathy with the coal
and lumber crowd rather than with
the common people. Now that he
has been indicated after a fashion,

Occasionally quick justice is meted
out to offenders in this state, in the
case of two burglars who broke into
store and saloon at Easton, Fari-

the safe and another store in the
same town and getting away with
out securing considerable sum Of
money in the safe that they over
looked, The officers soon located
and arrested the pair, they were
tried at Blue Earth, pleaded guilty
and were on their way to Saltwater
to serve an eight-years sentence
within six days after they commit
ted their crimes.

The Gazette has received notice of
a called convention of progressive
Republicans to be held at Minneapo-

worth while to take counsel for
driving special interests from the
control of the government and
also driving business out of politics
and politics out of business. :" Spec

in this state, and if the convention
can put cookie bur under the sad
die that will help to dismount these

signed to the call from this vicinity,
Representatives Bendixen of this

Along with the pessimistic fore
casts of a hard winter published by
goose-bone and corn-husk prophets,
comes a recent note of hopefulness
from Rev. w. Z. Rice of Fergus
Falls. Mr.. Rice remembers four dry
seasons during his IS years residence
in this state-all have been followed
by seasons of abundant crops. This
cheerful prophet reasons that the
drying up Of vegetation rests the
soil and that there will be double
accumulation of nitrates and phos-
pilates next year where neither grass
nor grain drew on the supply the
year before.

in sneezing. That sort of sneeze is
not vouchsafed to us every day. That
sort of sneeze comes infrequently. We

that we have sneezed. Most of us re-
