ica may one day show the world the path to peace, it is somewhat plainly indicated that we may possibly have some difficulty in keeping out of trouble ourselves while paving the way for world peace, especially if Germany sinks a few more American ships. Doubtless there is no more peaceably inclined man in the world than is the
 President, but We have not the least doubt despite his unobtrusive Mexican policy, that if somebody tromps too hard on the toes of your Uncle Samuel Woodrow is just as likely to pull the throttle open and tie the whistle down as any other true born American.

The news that Italy, following in the lead of the other nations involved in the great war, has barred the war cor respondents from her army is still day we might learn the truth concern that tale of horror now being written in the blood of men in Europes war marred history. We believe that the withholding from humanity of one iota of the ghastly evidence of what war is and means, is in the nature of wrong to the human race, for only by becom- ing fully cognizant of it's unutterable horrors, it's awful realities, will the race of men come to look upon it as the curse it really is and with that fuller understanding forever banish it from their midst. This. the mightest con fict in the history of the world, has been secret war from it's inception and with the correspondents. who are men trained to observe and gifted with the power to tell in comprehensive terms just what they see, disbarred from the firing lines. it is doubtful if the full story will ever be written save in the terms of the military experts to whom such trifles SIS the destruction. of battalions are IS nothing to the cap ture of city or some point of strateg- ical value. A compilation of the dis jointed tales of the survivors will of course, give us something of an idea of what has occurred but at best such will not be as full an exposition of the gigantic reality as would come from men trained and fitted to observe.

Stop using calomel! 1t makes you
sick. Don't lose a days work. If you
feel lazy, sluggish, bilious or constipat-
ed, listen to me!
Calomel is mercury or quicksilver
which causes necrosis of the bones.
Calomel, when it comes into contact
with sour bile crashes into it, breaking
it up. This is when you feel that aw-
full nausea and cramping. If you are
"all knocked out" if your liver is
torpid and bowels constipated or you
have headache, dizziness, coated ton,
que, if breath is bad or stomach sour
just try a spoonful of harmless bod,

drug store and get SO cent bottle OF

cipal subject considered at this time,
and on this phase of the case a bitter
fight is expected
The United States supreme court has
held that return on operation shall be
determined using the fair present
value of the property and the experts
differ widely as to what constitutes
such value.
The Santa Fe, the first road to offer
evidence on this subject has furnished
figures on original cost, with additions
for putting the property together, re-
production of the property new as or
1.-THE present time, and reproduction new
with depreciation and appreciation to
present condition. The Oklahoma City
passenger depot for instance is shown
to have cost $4,000 actually, but is
now valued at approximately $l5O,OOO.
The Oklahoma City terminals cost in
fact, with additions and betterments
and freight charges on materials ad-
ded, 1897 900, while the company holds
their value on the reproduction new
basis to be $1,471,0 900.
At six per cent this difference in
figures alone makes a difference in an
nual returns of $4,000.
Using the actual cost value each con-
signment of freight handled brought
this terminal cost IL cents while
using the reproduction new value, the
cost is shown to be 40 cents, On the
former basis each loaded car han
died cost SO cents while an the latter
basis the cost is $3.45.
This vital difference runs through
each OF the multitude of items in
volved. A. l.. Conrad assistant gen.
eral auditor of the Santa Fe testified
that his road alone spent $112,OOO on
the Oklahoma rate case in the year
ending June 80, 1914, and had spent
about $145 900 altogether.
