Involved tho constitutionality of the board
were submitted to the Judges over a month

their decision Will be made public this

Secretary (1. 1,. Laws says he anticipates
a decision which will uphold the consti
tutionality of the board and destroy the
law of 1S!)7 providing penalties for the en
forcement of tho board's orders. Neither
Hecrctury Uahlman nor Secretary Kdgerton
lias boon at the stale house for several
weeks, but the latter Is expected here in
a few iluyiu to receive the court's decision.
"It Is my opinion that tho supreme court
will uphold tho constitutionality of the
net of isti", creating Hie Hoard of Trans
portation, but I believe the court will de
clare Invalid the act of IMi" providing pon
kltles," said Secretary Luwu. "If that net
Is stricken from the statute books It will
probably bo necessary to dismiss several
of the suits recently Instituted by Attor

against the railroads were brought under

that Lincoln nnd Minnehaha counties wore
scoured In tho effort to provnll upon farm
ers to come to town and participate In the
parade this ' feature of the doy's demon
stration was particularly successful. Tho
farmers' parade by actual count contained
270 voters.
The feature of the evening's demonstra

lock the barn door. If there wore a hip; lire in some ofllco
building the advantage of a thoroughly tiro-proof structure
would be appreciated by the men who lost their hooks and
papers.
The Bee Building
is made of steel, stone, brick and tire tile. All of the wood
that was used in the structure is in plain sight. There are
no wooden stairways or wooden joists. There are a few
of the best ofiiccs in the building that were vacated by the
army which are still for rent. We will be glad to show

We thrill at the storv of "Curfew
shall not ring to-night." Yet It is
melodramatic and cotntnonplnce be
side the peril every woman runs who
fuces ntotherhooel. Women are
strangely self-forgetful. The ex
oltation of the fact of motherhood
bliuds them often to its peril. Vet
tne uusuanii who can Dear no tune
of the mother's pain or peril owes it
to himself to sec that his wife i3 in
that condition of sound health which
minimizes the risk txjth to mother

expressed their gratitude for Dr.
Pierces ifavonta Prescription, be
cause it makes the pain of mother
liexxl practically nothing and reduces
uie risic to us lowest jxjsjible point.
