B ITIE OMAIIA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 0, 1907. CLARE COMES HERE 1HBDAI XatsrtUt Commerc CoBmiiirfaner Will Em Bwitckinr Tf Cass, HEARIH6 AT THE FEDERAL BUILDING Fsoeoedlnsj Came l' Protest of . Crala Exchange Against t'nlea Pacta for Raising the Charge. Th report that Commissioner Clark? of th Interstate Commerce commission would be In Omaha Friday to take further testi mony In th grain cases waa erroneous. Monday Is tha data aet for tha hearing of tha protest of tha Omaha Grain exchange gainst tha Union Pacific for raising the witching chargea on grain from Council Bluffs to Omaha and Bouth Omaha from tl per car to 1 cent per hundred, which on tha larger cars Is IS a car. Mr. Clark baa notified the United States marshal and Judge Munger ha will be in Omaha Monday. After the announcement of the raise was made by tha Union Paclfio the Great West ern stepped Into the breach and published a tariff whereby It proposed to haul grain free to elevators on its own lines and for $2 to elevators on other roads in Omaha and South Omaha. It was thought the Grain exchange would drop Its ease after the Great Western published its rat. BOUTH M'AL, ESTER, L T., Feb. 8.-43. A. Prouty, Interstate commerce commissioner, resumed his hearing here today. A number of railroad officials were subpoenaed to testify regarding the continued car short age and slow movement of freight In this territory. New Reciprocal Demurrage BUI. Speaking of the new reciprocal demurrage , bill drafted as a substitute for the defec tive one In the legislature, which Imposes an obligation on the railroads to serve no tice upon consignees of arrival of all car loads and less than carloads of freight by telephone, and all such notices to be con firmed In writing by mall or otherwise, a railroad official says: "Railroads now serve such notices where they are required, but this act requires a double notice, regardless of necessity. This would require a heavy unnecessary in creased expenditure throughout the state. For the Burlington the average number of consignees per day at Lincoln is 112, making 1,6M notices per day on less than carload, freight, making a total of 2,224 double no tices per day at Omaha and Lincoln. "The established practice for merchants at small stations, as well as the larger points. Is to leave standing orders with authorized draymen to ' accept from the railroad company and deliver any freight V which might arrive, and under this system notices have been necessary on less than 11 per cent of less than carload freight at Lincoln and Omaha, . At the Lincoln freight bouse the Burlington has seven Individual telephones and at Omaha nine, and figuring three minutes per' call, it would take forty hours per day to serve these notices over these 'phones., Editors Want Cheap Rates. ' The Nebraska Editorial association has applied to the railroads to have a fare and one-third rate given for the meeting which will be held In Omaha February 2a Wblls thla rate will be granted. It is some thing new In Nebraska, for these a I tors Tnave heretofore traveled on advert.slng transportation, but the railroads this year found themselves In the regrettable posi tion of being unable to give any such trans tsrtatlom Railroad contracts with news- papers are 'now for cash and tha railroads no longer have any newspaper transporta tion; It was all put In the furnaces and burned up. Protest Against Cat Rates. A protest has been made by the Inter state Merchants' association to the legisla ture of Missouri, one of the most Influential mercantile associations In Missouri, against the paxsage of the proposed 2-cent pas senger bill In Missouri. The principal ar gument Is the recognised need In Missouri for better railroad facilities Instead of cheaper railroad fares. It was shown that commercial Interests had grown JO0 per cent, while their railroads had Increased but tl per cent In the last v, decade, and there was great need of more railroads. Marhlnerr for Hew Motors. . Considerable of the machinery . for the twenty new motor cars which the Union Pacific Is to build has been ordered and some of the frames are being built. While not much of the machinery Is on hand for this large order everything Is being placed In readiness for the speedy completion of the cars as soon as the material arrlvea. The cars which have been In service for some time have been giving eminent satis faction, especially those of the latest type, which are of a larger horse-power. GREELY GOES TO WASHINGTON Will Attend Meeting of Military Board of the Arsay at tit Capital.. Major General A. W. Greely, command ing the Northern Military division and De partment of the Missouri, will depart for Washington Sunday from Chicago to attend tha meeting of the military board of the army.

Yoder Bitten by Canine that Also Bites Her Pet Pap. Mrs. W. C. Toder of 623 South Seven teenth avenue was severely bitten Friday morning on her left arm by a curly-haired dog she claimed was mad. The truculent canine also bit two pet dogs In the Toder neighborhood. Mrs. Yodel's screams for help attracted several men, who armed themselves with pitchforks and clubs and started In pursuit of the dog, but without success. Patrolman Brown was detailed from police headquarters to shoot the dog, but he, too, failed of his mission, the dog having escaped In the meantime. Mrs. Yoder waa attended by Dr. C. Impey. The alleged mad dog bit Mrs. Yoder's pet dog, which In turn bit a dog owned by Mrs. John Dahrak of 625 South Seventeenth street. .. TUT A UNIVERSAL Jfll BLOOD DISEASE Catarrh is usually worse in Winter, because of the cold, damp and enddenly changing climate. Colds are contracted, and neglected and as the secretions from the different inflamed membranes are absorbed into the blooa the unpleasant symptoms of the disease commence. The nostrils are stopped up and a constant dropping of mucous back into the throat keeps up continual hawking and spitting. The patient has dull headaches, nging noises in the ears, and often slight fever and a depressed, half-sick feeling accompanies the disease. The blood becomes so fully charged with catarrhal matter that stomach troubles are brought on, the kidneys and bladder are affected, and if the blood is not purified of the poison the lungs become diseased because of the constant passage of impure blood through them. Catarrh cannot be cured with washes, sprays, inhalations and such treatment ; these cannot reaesVthe poison-laden blood where the real cause is located, and can only give temporary relief and comfort. A disease which affects the entire blood supply as does Catarrh, must be treated with a blood ourifier. 55 s R QHO is the best remedy for Catarrh, which has . . grown to be a universal disease. It goes to VEGETABLE the bottom of the trouble, rids the blood of the catarrhal matter, reinvigorates the cir culation, and cures this disgusting disease permanently. When S. S. S. has purified the blood every part of the system receives a supply of fresh, healthy blood ; then the inflamed membranes heal and every symptom of Catarrh passes away. Write for our book containing information about Catarrh, and ask for any medical advice you desire.

To the Editor of The Bee: It gave much personal satisfaction, I am sur, to many cltlsens of Omaha, as It did to me, to find In The Bee's fine and exhaustive tribute to Omaha's departed nobleman and philanthropist. Count Crelgh ton, a revival of the memory and good works of John Lee. He was a humble and modest man, poor In purse, but a double millionaire In heart and soul and In good deeds and works in behalf of suffering humanity. I knew him long and well, and few among ua had better opportunity than I bad to bear witness to that good man's constant devotion and every -day succors to needy men, women and children In Omaha. For many years, for all the years of life which God gave him here, his works among them never ceased. It waa Edward Crelghton, nof Count Crelghton, who first put money Into the trusted hands of John Lee to feed the hungry and clothe the naked poor of our city, seconded In the same manner by his noble wife, Lucre tla Crelghton,' and' It was their high example of Christaln charity and benevolence to which Count Crelghton succeed ed In sup porting John Lee, who never wearied In bis work of doing good to the poor, and In so many ways In the noble life of this great man at whose grave all Omaha bows today In grief, in sorrow and In mourning. When Edward Crelghton was In any doubt about giving. It waa to John Lee, th pure and .honest John Lee, that he referred for decision and for action as long as he lived, , and Count Crelghton, I doubt not, did the same things during the life of that good man. It may not be out of place In this eon. nectlon to say, with Intimate personal familiarity with the facta, that In the earlier days, even before Edward Crelgh ton had come Into his larger fortune, that bis open hand of charity was extended to the poor through others In the Protestant communion of several churches. For this service he selected Mrs. George W. Homan, Henry Homan's mother, a splendid woman; Mrs. John H. Kellom, of sainted memory, whose good name th Kellom school bears; Mrs. Experience Estabrook of endearing life and memory, and one or two others. These good women would tell me of hla putting money Into their hands, . day by day, week by week, for the needy, asking no questions as to how they should use it. Only thla question would Edward Crelgh ton ask of each, betimes: "Do you need any more?" But It waa John Lee who did th broader work, the faithful,, devoted child of the Roman Cathollo communion. In later year. GEO RGB L. MILLER, ' ' : i . . r. '. . ' Tho Omaha Fireman. OMAHA, Feb.-8. To the Editor of The Bee: The bill now pending before the legislature, known as the "Leeder bill," to provide for a double shift for Omaha fire men. Is worthy of more generous consider ation than It is receiving from the so-called business Interests of Omaha. The attitude of the Commercial club. which pretends to speak for the business Interests, Is selfish, unjust, and does not. In my Judgment, voice the sentiment or meet the approval of our people. Their chief objection Is that If this bill becomes a law It will Increase the cost of the Are department, and thereby Increase taxes. Such a condition would not necessarily follow If proper management was given to tne taxes already levied. But grant that taxes will be Increased. Is that a Justifiable argument , against a measure which means more humane treat ment of the firemen? No one will deny mat their work Is dangerous and many times heroic. They are called forth at a moment's notice to do work which tries man's courage, and without delay or hesi tation they give their limbs and lives for the protection of the property and safety of the city, and they often leave widows and orphans In their effort to. protect Just such selfish men who now seek for mer cenary reasons to deprive , them of some home life, some culture, some pleasure, and some opportunity to enjoy the city which they ao nobly protect. It Is not a good government which seeks to throttle man's aspirations for better things In life. It is not a good government which compels Its servants to perform labor twenty-four hours a day. But some business men aay If the firemen are not content with present conditions others will take their placea. What a Christian spirit they demonstrate! These firemen have de voted a good share of their lives to the business. They have families to support. They cannot readily adopt themselves to other callings, and no Just employer would demand It of them. The firemen, as a rule, own little homes In our city, which they have paid tor by their savings. They spend their money in our city, and these business men get It. And now that they ask for Just, fair and decent treatment some greedy persons cry, "No more taxes," which would not follow providing more care waa taken to prevent some of the business interests from mulct ing the publio treasury whenever an , op portunity presents, in the way of their obtaining exorbitant prices from the gov ernment and the people tor the'r goods and warea. It does not look wed for these business men to exhibit such a spirit toward their fellow men,' who are vitally Interested In the welfare of our city as they can be. and who are far more patriotic. We must help one another, and share the burden and pleasures of life equally. No permanent good will come to our city by the unjust position taken by these so-called business Interests In this matter. FRANKLIN A. 6HOTWELL. Dcfeas of radicate Parle BOUTH OMAHA, Feb. T.-To the Editor of Tho Bee: I see that a party signing himself P. M. Campbell In the lasue of The Bee of this date (February 6) makes the dire threat that ha will vols for an nexation to Omaha If the city does not buy the Casstdy tract. He does not glvs any reason for buying th land except that a few respectable people live near the tract.

The people of this country have been prod igal In the destruction of timber and they will soon regret It, unless the Christmas tree nonsense and other means of destruc tion are not stopped within a short time. I understand that the Cassidy tract la com posed of about two blocks of ground, while I am told that there are about thirty-five acres In Syndicate park. It Is not a ques tion of annexation, but one of common sense as to which tract of land will make the most suitable park not 'only for the present but for all future time. Mr. Camp bell and I will pass from this life, but the park will remain for future generations and the best should be chosen. I do not make the threat of voting for anrexatlon If the city council and park board do not decide oh Syndicate park, nor am I in the employ of the owners of Syndicate park, as some of the Cassidy boomers are said to be, to boom that tract, but I think the boards should decide not only for the present, but for all time to come. People from other states have told, me when they saw Syndicate park that It Is th finest natural park they ever saw. There are also a good many respectable people living near Syndicate park who are not making threats of what they will do If the council does this or that thing about parka, though I believe two people up there favor an nexation to Omaha. The best site to buy Is Syndicate park and ail who are unpreju diced, say so, too, F. A. AG NEW. Second Class Mall Matter. NIOBRARA. Neb., Feb. ITo the Editor of The Bee: The resolution sent to Senator MiUard and Congressman Kennedy by the Omaha Commercial club regarding the re classification of second class (newspaper and periodical) mall matter, I hope haa been done wisely and In the Interest of newspapers and periodical. From my reading, however, I Judge that the club has gone wild and taken up a subject that It knows very little about. The Be had a very suggestive editorial regarding the report of the Joint commis sion of congress, but I think It might have gone more Into detail on some features of this, In some particulars, vicious report. The point of quality of paper being uniform seems very narrow when we consider ben efits reached. - The art journals and high class magazines, let alone the enterprising Sunday dallies, would be greatly handi capped. The printer's craft haa In th In land Ft'.rter, as an Illustration of high class printing, many feature that are helpful In artistic composition, made pos sible by the elaborate advertising dons by the high-class paper manufacturers, who furnish samples of their superior outputs In tints and weights that roust be barred from the mails should those hostile to the press have their way. Third Assistant Postmaster General Mad den haa lived on hobbles against the legiti mate press for many years, seemingly un disturbed. He and former Congressman Ixud were the disturbing elements years ago, until finally we retired Loud. Now we have Penrose to take his place. I am a 1 victim of Mr. Madden's hobby In that after five months of labor trying to get recogni tion In a worthy effort to establish a mag azine he waa tha means of confiscating my deposits pending admission, and I have hid robbed from me "robbed" Is the word, Mr. Editor that much to go toward reducing the deficit. And It all waa because I In sisted upon my right under the plain lw to free county delivery. My magazine was designed as a local undertaking, because I had anme good local matter In hand: bo sldes, I could not undertake one on a large scale because of a lack of capital. So I am compelled to begin this worry of seeking admission to the second-class rate all over with a doubt as to what will become of future deposits with a fear that I shall have them afaia confiscated to fcolf out that deficit of the Poetofflce department The second-class postal rate law needs no overhauling. A good, honorable business man at the head of the division that now harbors Mr. Madden ought to be sufficient. The law could be no plainer than It already is. But the administration could be more manly and fair. A man who dares to ad vocate that newspapers must pay 4 cent a pound for postage Is certainly not a fit man to be the servant of a wide-awake, reading people. Aa Americans we want all the reading we can get. If It Is good and whole some and at prices that are within reach. The Poetofflce department was not insti tuted to become a profit-bearing branch of this government, but a carrier of accommo dation to the people at large. ED A. FRT, Editor Wonderland Magazine, Lain ties at State Farm. PALMYRA. Neb., Feb. 8. To the Editor of The Bee: I wish some Information re garding the following: I see by the papers that Representative McMuIlen of Oage county Introduced a bill to appropriate 1180,000 for Improvements on the state' farm In Lincoln. I, as well as many others, would like to know how much money has bean appropriated for said farm. Two Items that drew my attention were: First, for completion and equipment of the woman's building, $38,000. Second, for houses for farm attendants, 16,000. If we are able to ascertain the amount already expended on this Institution we will have a very good Idea of the luxuries they are enjoying at said state farm. I commenced farming In Nebraska In the spring of 1S&7, and hay raised a crop every year since, making fifty in all. As far as I am concerned this state farm has never been one penny's worth of benefit to me, and I voice the sentiments of numerous other practical farmers In my vicinity. I paid my first taxes In 1S58 and have paid them every year since, and I would like very much to know how such money is being spent J. R. M KEE. JAPAN IN NO MOOD FOR WAR Mikado Has Not th Desire or Means. Declare aa Eminent Filipino. Dr. Ramon Reyes Lala of Manila ts at ! the Paxton. Ho is a native Filipino and a graduate of Oxford university. He Is delivering a course of lectures throughout the United States on the subject of "The Philippines and Their People." He lectured Thursday evening In St Paul and Is en route to McCook, where he next lectures on the evening of February 16. In the meanwhile he may lecture In Omaha during hla stay of a week. "I have not the slightest faith in the possibility or probability of any hostilities ensuing between Japan and the United States," said Dr. Lala, "In the first place Japan haa no desire to engage In any more wars until It can recoup Itself from Its late war with Russia. The financial condition of Japan la at a very low ebb just now from Its tremendous expenditures of recent years. And then again with Its acquire ment of the suzeranlty of Cores and Man churia and the government of Formosa, all of its tact of diplomacy will be called Into requisition to look after Its Internal affairs. "Of the Philippine and Filipino there Is much to be said. The splendid edu cational system instituted by the United States government is having a wonderful effect upon our people. Over KO.000 Filipino children are now In the publio schools of the Islands, and they are becoming rapidly Americanised and will be the future main stay of the American government there. "America has done more for the Filipinos In the eight years of its occupancy of the Islands than waa done by Spain in 800 years. The Industrial resources of the Islands are being rapidly developed and all that Is needed there, now la free trade, or at least an adjustment of the tariff on the American' basis. Manila ha been meta morphosed into a modern city, with forty or more miles of one of the best electrla railway systems In the world. The sanitary conditions of the city and : elsewhere throughout the Islands has been marvel ously Improved, and. In brief, the entire archipelago has been electrified Into new life by American methods. Tha question of Independence Is one for the future. "Agulnaldo is now In Manila and ha reconciled himself to become a loyal Amer ican citiaen and haa engaged In business, which he Is successfully conducting. It is the great middle class, lying between the more indolent and highly cultured of the Flllplnow, through which the strain of Spanish blood mingles, and the native sav age tribes, of which there are eighty or more, that the regeneration of the Philip pines must come. It Is this middle. Indus trial class that Is availing Itself of Ameri can educational methods, and the future of the Philippines lies with them."

WHY WOMEN SUFFER Women hare so much to go through in life that it is a pity there is so much needless suffering from back ache, headache, dizziness, languor and other common aches and ills of kid ney 'complaint. Doan's Kidney Pills have brought new life and strength to thousands of women afflicted in this way. Women are prone to kidney trouble. They have so much Indoor work to do, so much lifting, bending and stooping; they are bound by custom to tight, heavy clothing. They get little outdoor exercise, and any little cold may bring on kidney weakness. Don't worry if you feel tired and dragged out if you have backache and bearing-down pain, headache, dizzy spells, falntness and lack ambi tion. Don't think it's some trouble peculiar to the sex. Men suffer in the same way when they have kidney trouble. Doan's Kidney Pills are a special medicine for the kjdneys, and do not affect the bowels or any other organs. There is not a particle of poison in them just the pure roots and herbs every Picture Tens jj Mory Ifl that nature Intended for enring the kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills cure every form of kidney trouble. Read the testimony of a woman of your own city, perhaps a neighbor. OMAHA TESTIMOXYt Mrs. J. W. Edwards, of J733 Fowler , St., Omaha, Neb., says: "I must say that I had not. much confidence in Doan's Kidney Pills before I used them, but I was troubled with symp toms of kidney complaint and suf fered so severely that I was compelled to do something and went to Kuhn & Co's. drug store for a box. They soon convinced me of their value, and, after completing the treatment, I was not troubled. (From statement made in 1900.) PERMANENT CURE "The statement I made In the spring of 1899 about Doan's Kidney Pills curing me of backache and symptoms of kidney complaint which clung to me for five or six years, and at times made me quite miserable, was not only true, but daring the years which have elapsed, the cure then effected has practically been permanent." 2 DOAN'SIODNEY.
