Close Contests on License Ques-
tons.

tons.
Although four hundred townships in
Minnesota held their annual elections
last week and in about two hundred OF
them the question of license Or no
license of saloons was an issue in
only about fifty instances was the
status of the place in that respect
changed.
"The situation is not bad" said r.
w. zollman, attorney for the Brewers
association. "Several towns in the
dry belt fixed by the United States
government in Northern Minnesota
voted on license Tuesday at the insti-
cation of the anti-saloon league,
although regardless of the result of
that election, there could not have
been any saloons there. Among these
towns were Fertile, Fosston, Bagley
and Twin Valley.
'sWe have reports from 347 towns,
of which 220 remain wet and 78 remain
dry. There are il. towns now wet that
were dry last year, and including thos
affected by the Indian bureau orders,
as have stated, there are 81 which
were wet last year but must be dry
from now on. A number of these,
however, were actuated, as I have
been advised, by feeling that there
have been too many saloons there,
| and the idea in going dry this year
was to come next year under the
operations of the Alderman law,
which would then limit saloons in
| those communities to one to each 500
people,"
Below we complete the report on
election returns, having published the
greater part of them in last weeks

BAD FOR ECZEMA
Water Frequently Aggregates Skin
Troubles.

In certain inland European districts
where water is seldom used for bath
ing purposes the people are almost i'm
mune from skin affections. The best
authorities now agree that soap and
water are to be avoided in the treat
ment of skin diseases, particularly
eczema when present IN the scalp or
on the feet. as water is an irritant, and
when not actually the cause of the dis
ease, at least aggravates 1t. For this
reason prescriptions put up in liquid
or soa1 form. or containing grease or
alcohol. have always failed.
The new skin remedy, Poslaa, is a
f1esh-colored ointment. containing no
grease. Under its dire ctions soap and
water are forbidden. 1t may be used
on the tender skin of infants with
soothing and beneficial effect. and in
eczema ceases stops the itching imme-
diately. rapidly restoring the skin to
its normal condition.
Every druggist keeps both the So
cent size (for minor troubles) and the
50 jar. and either of these may be OBJ
tanned at the Rosser Drug company
and Fred A. Shows, as we'll as other
reliable drug stores.
But no one is even asked to pur-
chase Poslam without first obtaining
a sample package, which will be sent
by mail, free of charge, upon request.

RATES RAISED IN EUROPE.
Greater Expense of Operation Forces
an Elevation of Charges.

New York, March 25.-George
Heimrod, United States consul at
Berne. Switzerland, hos sent in a re-
port about European railroads, which
has a bearing on present conditions in
this country. He tells how the grow
ing expenditures of certain European
railways have forced a change of
freight and passenger rates. The federal
council of Switzerland, quoted in Mr..
Heimrod's report, has made this Off
cial statement:
'"Thus, much as it IS dep1ored, one
of the cherished hopes of the national
ization of our railways is shattered.
The necessity is, however, apparent to
place the railways upon q sound finan-
cial footing. and to avoid continual
deficits. 1t must now be acknowledged
that the original reduction of the traf-
f1c rates went too far, and that the
construction of new buildings, addi-
ton of new trains. and other improve
ments must proceed slowly. The Swiss
Federal railways is not the only ad-
ministrative undertaking that made a
poor showing during the last year
(1909) between receipts and expenses.
A number of Swiss private railways,
the Austrian State railway, the Aus
TRAN Southern railway and the Wur-
temburg State railway have been
obliged to raise rates to cover growing
The consul writes as follows about
the condition of the Swiss Federal
railways: Cooperating receipts have not
increased in like ratio to operating
expenses. The railway administration
has economical by reducing the num-
Der of trains and number of cars, by a
reduction of the number of employees
occasioned by lessened traffic, by re-
stricting the construction of new build
ings, ETC., but these retrenchments will
not be sufficient to overcome the added
expenses due 20 the expected increase
in traffic, the increase in the price of
materials, the continuous increase in

count, the proposed increases brought

proposed sickness and benefit fund, etc.
A surplus is required, but this can be
obtained only by raising the traffic

ANOTHER CALIFORNIA TRAIN
Santa FEES Limited to Re Sent Out in
Two Sections.


Two Sections.
The Santa -Fe makes the announce
ment that a second section OF the CAN
fornia Limited will be run weekly from
Los Angeles TO Chicago. This arrange
ment will continue at least the balance
of March and all of April, and perhaps
longer.
This is the first time in the history
of the road that a regular eastoound
second section of the limited has been
scheduled. During the first part OF the
present season the westbound nmlteu
ran in two sections tri-weekly. Ih1s
was maintained for six weeks and 1t
frequently happened that 1t was neces-
sary to run extra sections on additional
days than outlined in the schedule.
During this rush of first class travel
hundreds of passengers were brought
west in excess of the capacity or regu-
lar trains. The tide of the travel is
now turning. and it is necessary to
provide additional trains to accommo-
date the returning passengers who
came west with the rush.
Since the reduction in time on the
schedule of the limited from Chicago
to southern California, this train has
become more popular than ever, and
railroad mel look for the establish
ment of a regular second section for
at least a portion of the season next
year.

SWOLLEN ANKLES.
Shooting Pains in the Cords
and Joints.
Symptoms of Inf1ammatory Rhes4-
matism Which Quickly Disap-
Peared When the Patient
Tried the Right
Remedy.

Almost any pain or ache which cannot
readily be accounted for is usually classi-
fled as rheumatism. Some of these are
transient and cure themselves.
An actual attack of rheumatism is
very difficult to cure so that it will stay
cured. Ordinary treatment aims only
to relieve the pain until the attack wears
itself out. Then it is liable to occur
again and usually does, year after year.
The only lasting cure is secured by
driving the rheumatic poison from the
system and building up the blood so that
the disease Is prevented from obtaining
. new foothold.
Mr.. Frank Thornbureh. a prominent
farmer, of r. F. D. No 8, Indianola,
Iowa, says:
81 was q sufferer from infammatory
rheumatism for eighteen years. The
disease followed a cold when I was
about twelve years old and grew worse
each year until it finally crippled my
ankles. The pains started in the cords
of my neck, went to my hips and knee
joints and at last settled in my ankles.
Both of my ankles were so swollen that
/ could not walk for some time. The
pains, which were constant, would shoot
from my ankles to my toes and it often
seemed that could not stand them. u

was often confined to bed for weeks.

MUST HANDLE ICE WITH ToNGs
DIR. Crumbine Puts Stop to Fondlins
Railroad Train Ice.


DR.. S. ]. Crumbine is being aided
and abetted in his campaign to clean
up things in Kansas by the state board
of railroad commissioners. The board
of health beat the railroad commission
to it when it came to ordering the dis
continuance of common drinking cups
on the trains. but now the railroad
board has pu. one over the board of
health-all good natured understand.
The board has ordered the railroads to
clean up their water coolers and to
change their system of handling ice.
The board does not demand that the
employees in railroad yards use kid
gloves or white gloves in handling ice
but it does demand that they cease
using their bare hands That they have
been handling ice with bare hands is
borne out by numerous complaints re-
ceived by the board recently. Here
after the ice Used in cooling the water
on passenger trains must be handled
with ice tongs.
This is only half of the story. 1t
has been charged that the water cool
ers are cleaned out only when they
become stopped up with accumulations
of soil and other substances in the bot
toms. The board will see that they are
