New Freight Rates
for South Dakota
Commission Extends Charges East of
River to All Territory West, Ex-
cept Portions of Black Hills.

PIERRE, s. D., Feb. 4-(Special)
After hearings at numerous places
over the state for several months past,
the State Railway commission. at its meet
ing here today. announced the Schedule Of
freight rates fixed by It as equitable for
this state. The complaints have been the
strongest from that section of the state
west Of the Missouri river, where differ
emit rate prevailed than that in effect east
of the stream. Following the hearings the
commission has framed a complete list Of
schedules on all classes Of freight ship
ments on a mileage basis, and while all
the different percentages Of change have
not yet been worked out by the depart
ment, the rate which the commission has
ordered to be put in force on March
10 will bring material relief to the
people west of the Missouri, II it is ac-
cepted by the roads as a rate under which
they can work. If not, 1t means another
suit on the part OF the state.
In general terms, the changes which
have been announced by the commission
continue the rates which have been In eff
feet east of the Missouri into that part
of the state west OF the stream, with the
exception of the roads through the noun
famous section of the Black Hills. covering
part of the Northwestern system, the
Burlington system in the hills, and the
Crouch line. While this rate applies to
shipments in general, coal and coarse
grains are given a commodity rate of their
own. The roads are also allowed to charge
an arbitrary of one cent hundred
pounds in car lots, and two cents hum
bred in smaller shipments when they
cross a bridge on the Missouri river.
AS an indication Of what the changes
are, taken on a basis of $50 mile ship
ments they show by classes, per hundred
| pounds:

RHEUMATISM
PAINFUL g. DANGEROUS

Rheumatism is due to a diseased
condition of the blood cells and cor
puscles, brought about by an excess
of uric acid in the circulation. II is
not only a very painful disease but an
extremely dangerous trouble. The
briny, aerid state of the blood gradu-
ally forms a coating over the muscles,
and by depositing a cemeut-like SUBJ
stance in the joints frequently terIni-
mates fatally, or leaves its victim

doctor " the spot that hurts, and it is
quite right to use liniments, hot appli-
cations, ETC., to get temporary relief
from painful joint or swollen tendon;
but Rheumatism is not a skin disease,
