With proper ceremony, with patri-
otto and reminiscent speech, with gay
and stirring music. with the parading
of military, fraternal and civil soci-
sites, the corner stone of the new
court house was well and truly laid

that there were fully two thousand
people from Bruce, Estelline, Volga,
Arlington, White, Aurora, Elkton,
Bushnell and other points, added to
the visitors from the farming district
contiguous to the city, making an as
sembly seldom seen, the court house
square containing about three thou
sand people during the ceremony.
Almost to the minute the parade
moved from the place of assembly,
the route taken being north from the
Masonic Temple on Main street to
Sixth street, then to Sixth e n
and on TO the grounds. Major f. R.
Chrisman was Grand Marshal. with
Lieut.. p. b. Peyton as aide.
The order of march of the organi-
cations participating was as follows:

Co. &C" n. G. S. D.;
Battalion of Cadets S. D. S. c.;

riages.
1t was one of the finest parades ever
seen in this part of the country and
was nearly seven blocks in length.
Everything moved without a hitch.
The actual laying of the corner
stone was done by a Grand Lodge
specially commissioned by the state
Grand Master and was made up of:

Trying the Railroads

THE Nevada Railroad Commission has handed down a decision
relative to the haulage Of cool to this city by the local road. In the
rs cents per ton This does not sound like much Of a reduction, but
in the aggregate it mean a saving for the consumer, as n nan sell
ing the coal taxes the freight o the party buying the fuel and the
same with every article consumed o used. This is a matter OF
profit and loos. The freight is added. s.
The Commission in reviewing the local condition cites a number
Of articles that are hauled we the road al even a less figure thar
they established. The earning OF the road are computed rom he
earnings and expenditure. The comission figures cost OF transporta-
ton taxes and other expenses. The result is that they know to M
mill the ca nings OF a railroad and what its costs per o to handle
the freight. 1t is on this basis that rates are reduced Or advanced "a
the case may be. The railroads ire placed o n trial and they offer
what evidence they have at hand. 1t is not alone the local road, this
case is cited as one OF many.
The railroads like any other business proposition have been asking
all the money they a get for delivery of goods. This was the policy
established when the roads we're built. 1t was not until a proper
commission vas organized to try the cases that it as possible to
bring matters before a competent judge with facts and data TO decide
a dispute.
The merchant or settling in the boom camp establishes boom
prices. The path-fnding railroad does the same, but with the settling
OF business the inflated prices are set at a standard on the earning
capacity and expense account. 1t is o such matters that the railroad
commission fixes the present charges.
The Commission is a public utility commission in so much that
any complaint of overcharge in any particular by any railroad n
been reduced on the Southern Pacific, the local road is coming in for
its trimmings as have all the roads in the state. Not only in freight
but along passenger lines. The Southern Pacific is at present cited
to appear before the commission next month to answer complaints on
passenger. ratec charges. which are set forth as unreasonable. There
is every possibility that they will be compelled to further reduce the
price per mile per passenger The passenger as the freight is figured
at a certain expense and the corporation is allowed tic make o much
money On a certain valuation.
The settling of the coal raeo O the local road will naturally
meat a money loss to the treasury of the road, but it also leaves
a good margin of profit as figured by the railroad witnesses when ties
timony a offered.
The day of scrapping the railroads by abuse has passed. 1t has

THE final set-piece OF verbal pyrotechnics in the United States
Senate 1T this extra session is reserved by program for discussion o
Arizona statehood on August T. The plan seems to be to let loose
shower OF sparks. deny statehood and then run to cover. There is not
much likelihood that Arizona will be admitted, though New Mexico
will. This is obviously unfair, but it is a play in politics.
We could stand for the tricky politics of it, were it not that the
orators VIII cloak it in hypocricy and rant about the sanctty of the
judiciary. Everybody knows that the average senator has n more
respect (probably much less) than the humblest Arzonian for the
judiciary. s
Besides, is Editor Roosevelt points out in his latest utterance in
the Outlook, nothing is to preventArizona from knocking ut the re-
callof judiciary clause from her constitution until admitted to state
hood and then turning to and writing it in again. ~
Correction of the constitution is not the thing. Its because they
don't want two more Democrats in the United States senate.

When you take food into a stomach
that is tired and over-taxed the gastric
juices do not form fast enough TO digest
It properly. So the food becomes sour
and at once begins to throw off gasses.
Your stomach becomes inflated just as
surely as IL you attached a toy balloon
20 a gas jet. Then the gases and foul
odors issue forth and poliute your breath
making you an object of nausea 20 your
friends. Your tongue quickly becomes
coated and YOU can taste the foulness
that is within you.
Now all this condition is changed al
most instantly by a Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablet This little digester gets busy at
once-supplies all the digestive juices
that are lacking-digests the food in a
jiffy and opens up the clogged stomach
and bowels. 1t also sweetens and re-
freshes the mucous lining of the stom-
ach and bowels and restores peace and
content.
If you will give Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets a chance they will not only
sweeten your stomach. but also your
disposition and you will never have an
other stomach ILL.,
One grain of single ingredient in
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
5000 grains of food. This saves your
stomach and gives it the rest it needs.
All muscles require occasional rest IL
they are ever over-taxed. The stomach
is no exception to this rule.
