One of the most start lin g changes ever seen in any man, according to w. B. Holsclaw, Clarendon, Tex, was effected years ago in his brother.

Now he is sound and well and weighs 2l8 pounds. For many years our family has used this wonderful remedy for Coughs and Colds with exellent results" It's quick, safe, reliable and guaranteed. Price 50 cents and $1.0O. Trial bottle free at all druggists.

Jud C. Lathrop. proprietor of the Pastime Theatre while walk ing through the round-house yards yesterday afternoon was hit and knocked unconscious by one of the large doors of the round.h house. It was only a mir acle that. he was not instantly killed.
 Mr. J. N. Christy, came to the assistance of the man and i'm. mediately summoned Dr. Brown who had the man taken to the Downs Hotel on a stretcher.

A FEW LARGE
 WOOL SHIPMENTS

The wool shipping season was opened this week by Geo. l.. Pratt and Richard Hart. Mir. Pratt informs us that he ship ed about 1s,OOO pounds and sold to Salter Bros. of Bos- ton, outright, receiving a fair price. Richard Hart shipped about double that amount of wool but did not sell but con- sighed his lot to the same house.
 O. B. Sutton arrived home from Phoenix Wednesday and informs us that he has sheared his sheep down the Phoenix country this year, shipped the wool to Boston and sold it there at a price that will net him about 20 cents a pound here. Mir. Sutton shipped about 33,. 600 pounds.
 Wool grower Chet 1. Houck came i'll from the mountains the other day where he has been shearing some of his sheep, the balance of them being still in the Phoenix country. The sheep sheared there clipped about 15.- 900 pounds and the ones shear ed at Phoenix some time ago clipped about 13, 500 pounds. Mir. Houck will leave for Phoe- nix shortly to start the Phoe, nix band north.

CELEBRATION AND
 SNAKE DANCE

As stated in ouf last week s issue that the people of Winslow have induced the Moqui Indians to give their famous Snake Dance here in Winslow next August during the celebration, in addition to what we wish to say that this was brought about through the efforts of Mr. Wm. Williams who speaks their Ian. guage as fuently as he does Eng fish. Mr. Williams has seen their dances many times before, hay ing lived for some years on the reservation himself in former years.
 1t is the ideal of the commit tees to be appointed to get the Santa Fe to offer rates along the system and to advertise the same in their literature issued for advertising purposes. Aside from that, there will be a liberal amount of advertising done by the committees.
 There will be two other dances given by the Indians in addition to the Snake Dance which are called the Corn Dance, by 30 of the tribe and the Antelope Dance, by 30 of the tribe and the Snake Dance comes last in which 40 of the Indians will take part.
 So far the meh interested have not set the date for the meeting to be held to make arrangements for the celebration but it is ex- pected that a meeting will be called in the next few weeks.

Did you ever know that there are three persons in the United States who enjoy the privilege of receiving and sending letters without being obliged to use postage stamps? These are the widows of former presidents Mrs. Grover Cleveland, Mrs. Benjamin Harrison and Mrs. James A. Garfield. By a special act ot Congress these three ladies enjoy the privilege, so if you have occasion to write them you need not affix any stamp to your letter.
 A man who does not advertise simply because his grandfather did not, ought not to wear knee brooches and a queue.
 The man who does not adver- tise because 1t costs money, should quit paying rent for ti,e same reason.
 The man who does not adver- tise because somebody said it didn't pay, ought to believe the world is round, because the ancients said it was flat.

INSPECT SITE
 FOR BRIDGE

Governor Geo. w. P. Hunt, accompanied by State Engineer Lamar Cnbh. Auditor J. C. Cal laghan and R. (. Osburn, a mem- Der of the Board of Control ar. rived here last Sunday"morning, being met at the depot by many prominent citizens and Good Roads Boosters.
 Shortly after their arrival they were taken to Chevelon creek in an automobile, about six ma chimes making the trip to the creek, everyone being seated to their full capacity with good roads boosters.
 Upon his return from Chevelon the Chief Executive stated that assoon as the legislature makes the appropriation as per a bill pending, the bridge at Chevelon will be one of the first matters taken up. As we understand it the bill calls for a 25 cent levy throughout the state for just bridge and road work improve. ment.
 The Governor spent much of his time around town shaking hands with his many friends and answering numerous questions put to him regarding different matters in the legislature and politics, many of which he pass ed of with a significant smile.
 Gov. Hunt seems to be a sure hard worker making jumps every Sunday to different sec lions of the State. not being able to go during the week on account of his duties during the session of legislature, a day when many think of taking a good rest from labor, he is up and doing.
 Regarding a movement now under way to improve conditions in the State prison and to put the ex-convicts on the right path after they are released or parol- ed, Gov. Hunt stated that the prisoners are treated in the best manner possible and feels that there are many good men among them. Even to make them feel a little better the old striped suits heretofore worn by the convicts. which every child recognizes, have been done away with and
 suit of brown or gray has
 cen substituted.
 The Governor, MT. Callaghan and Mr. 0sburn left on the eve. ming train for Phoenix and Mir. Cobb left for Holbrook where he had some urgent work that re. quired his attention.

says. that st. Louis county will pay
under it a great deal more than it
will get back-DIRECTLY.
But you can't develop the whole
state without benefiting all parts of
it. You can't develop the state with
out building roads. And there can
be no systematic road building with
out state supervision and state aid.
What the News says about the
road tax-that st. Louis county pays
more to the state than it gets backs
from the state lis true of all other
state taxes. The university tax, for
instance. if view so narrow as that
of the News is to be taken, mulcts
st. Louis county for a large sum
which all goes to Minneapolis. Yet
the university, like good roads, bene-
fits the whole state.
There is no county in the state
more interested in good roads. not
only inits own territory but through
out the state, than st. Louis county,
and it is willing to pay its due share
of the cost.
1t is to be hoped that there will be
no votes in this county against the
one-milI road tax. and that on the
other hand there will be tremend-
GUS vote in favor Of it.-Duluth

THE ONE-MllI ROAD TAX

We are a little ashamed of the
Eveleth News, which has come out
against the proposed constitutional
amendment authorizing the legisla-
ture to increase the state road tax
from quarter of a mill to one mill.
The News says this is another
scheme by which the farmers of
Southern Minnesota seek to mulct
st. Louis county for more taxes for
their benefit.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1912-10-22

This is anarrow and unenlightened
view which The Herald takes pleas
ure in repudiating utterly.
The one-mill road tax was proposed
by Northern Minnesota man, and
in the legislature it had. We believe
every vote from Northern Minnesota.
Certainly it had every vote from st.
Louis county, and the st. Louis
county members made as hard a
fight for it as anybody did.
1t is true, as the Eveleth News
