WORLDS MIGHTIEST LOCOMO-
TIVES OPERATE THE "OLYM-
Plan" AND "COLUMBIAN'
ELECTRICALLY OVER
THE ROCKIES.

In the combination of size, power,
operating economy, ability to master
cold and snow, and to climb with
ease the mountain barriers, the great
electric locomotives of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway which
pull the "Olympian" and Columbian
over the Great Continental Divide are
supreme over all other types.
They are 112 feet, s inches long,
weigh zS4 tons, and have a trac-
tive power of 5000 pounds. They de-
rive their power from the harnessed
streams of the mountains. The cur
rent used is 5000 volts direct, the
highest potential direct current used
for railroad work in the world
In cold weather, the cold aiding
in keeping the motors cool, these 10
comotives reach their highest state of
efficiency With their immense power
they are able to penetrate the heaviest
snow-drifts with ease
One of the scientific marveIs of
these locomotives is regenerative
braking, by which the train on down
grades, instead Of consuming electric
ity, actually produces and returns it
to sub-stations; also by which the
speed of the train is kept under per-
feet control. insuring maximum safety
and eliminating wear and tear on the
brakeshoes, wheels and track.
Take the Milwaukee, on your next
trip through the Pacific Northwest.
Ensconced in the luxurious "Olym-
plan" or Columbian" smoothly rid
ing behind the worlds mightiest loco
motive, you enjoy smokeless, dirt
less, cinderless journey through the
beautiful scenery of the majestic
Rockies and forested Bitter Roots.

the heart Of the village.

pharmist from this city, will be mana
ger of the Stapleton pharmacy, which
will be branch of the Stapleton
drug store of this city.

cess in the new undertaking Mr.
Stapleton will divide his time between
the Watertown and Clyman stores.
There is a great volume of business
being done in Clyman, and it is I'M

the state. There have been a large
of business buildings and resi-
dences built in the village during the
last few years, and there will be con-
siderable building there this year.

MAYOR KADING STATEMENT.

In a statement to the people of
Watertown Mr.. Kading uses his usual
concise language and expresses his
views on the subject of his defeat in
following language:
In way | am glad to be relieved of
the duties of mayor as it will enable
me to give more time to devote to my
profession, although l should like to
have had an Endorsement of my ad-
ministration, for [ am sure that the
coming generations will feel proud of
all city officials who had anything to
do with the progress made by our city
in the last two years. The new high
school building will stand as a monu-
ment of which every citizen of Water
town may well be proud and which
will prove a great advertisement and
boost for our beautiful city The pur.
chasing of land for parks and public
squares will be better appreciated in
the near future
| attribute my defeat partly to the
fact that the people disapproved the
Sunday closing of saloons, move
ment with which | had absolutely
nothing to do and which l could not
control, but for which l was blamed
To all of my friends who stood by
me | desire to express my sincere
thanks, and to those who opposed me
let me say l bear you no i'll will. To
Mayor-elect Mulberger / wish success,
and hope that his administration will
be one Of peace and progress for our
city.

many contradictions.

has no fixed principles or convictions
upon any subject under the sun, and

mis- reelection and his personal ambi-

AVOID SPRING COLDS.

Sudden changes, high winds, shifting

checks the cold and helps break UP an
attack of grippe It's already pre-

SWAT THE FLY.

Much discussion has made the
average person familiar with the
work of the housefy. The common
every day housefy.
A few years ago there were ques-
lions sent out in all of the principal
cities in this and other countries
which put the matter before us quite
clearly and since then we have gone
on in our endeavor to overcome him
as most insidious pest. The questions
with a few slight changes are as
follows:
Where is the fly born? In manure
and filth.
Where does the fly live? In every
kind of filth.
Is there anything too filthy for the
fly to eat? No.
Where does he go when he leaves
tie vault and the manure pile and the
spittoon? Into the kitchen and dining
room.
What does he do then? He walks
or the bread, fruit and vegetables; he
sticks in the butter, he swims in the
milk.
Does he visit the patient sick with
consumption, typhoid fever and chol-
era infantum? He does and may call
on you next.
If the fly dangerous? He is mans
worst pest, and more dangerous than
wild beasts.
What disease does the fly carry? He
carries typhoid fever, tuberculosis
aid summer complaint. How? On his
wings and hairy feet. What is his
correct name? Typhoid fly.
Did he ever kill anyone? He killei
more American soldiers in the Span
ish-American war than all the bullets
Of the Spaniards.
Where are there most cases of these
diseases? Where there are the most
flies.
Where are there the most flies
Where there is the most filth
| Why should we kill the fly? Because
lie may kill us.
How should we kill the fly? Destroy
all the filth about the house and yard
that we can; pour lime on the rest:
kill him with a wire screen paddle or
sticky fly paper or kerosene oil.
Kill the fly in any way, but kill the
fly.
The mosquito is closely allied with
the fly. His favorite breeding place is
stagnant water an uncovered rain
barrel is all he wants to grow and
thrive.
Swat the fly.

THE OPPORTUNITY IN SIGHT

The eyes of the whole country are
on the South at this particular time.
1t seems that everything is conspiring
to put this the most favored section of
the country in the llimelight Of pub
licity. Our many varied advantages
are being exploited the country over,
and the newspapers far and near are
singing the praises of our wonderful
Southland. In recent issue of the
Manufacturer Record we find the fol-
lowing:
Tie supreme opportunity in the
business life of the South IS now in
sight. Activities which may con-
sorvatively be classed as marvellous
are carrying the North and the West
forward to unprecedented prosperity,
while the South, the nations greatest
undevelobed asset, is as yet only be-
ginning to see the signs of its share
Of this Astounding prosperity.
Mineral wealth, which battles de-
scription for variety, intrinsic value
and inherent possibilities of utiliza-
ton, marks the South as the predes-
! tined centers of almost limitless min
eral and industrial activities based on
these natural resources.
Vast water powers, that still run
their course idly to the sea, offer
limitless power for hydro electric and
chemical operations, ramifying into
every avenue of manufacturing and
business expansion.
Great stores of coal and ore and
granite and marbles and phosphate
rock, Xinc and lead and all the higher
minerals, present truly amazing OPP
portunities for the investment and the
employment of brain, Drawn and
money.
The time has come for the South to
awaken to its opportunities and to
make the most of this, the most pro-
pitious time in it's history.
The time has come for the great in
dustrial and capitalistic forces of
other sections to find in the South the
largest field for their operations.
1t was many years ago when "Pig
hon" Kelly then in the zenith of his
influence in the House of Representa-
tives, said through the Manufacturers
Record
The South is the coming Eldorado
o. American adventure. ay the AL
mighty speels its progress"
The time is here for this day of adj
venture and development, and eyerv
man who takes his part in speeding
the progress of the South will do his
share toward making the South the
geratest developed asset of the nation
i'll material things.
