No. The Chiropractic and the Osteopath both aim to put in place that which is out of place, to right that which is wrong; but the Path- ology Diagnosis, Prognosis and Movements are entirely different. One of my patients, Mr. W. A. Casler, has taken both Chiropractic and Osteopoth treatments. The Chiropractic is ten times more direct in the adjustments and the results getting health ten times more thor- ough in one tenth of the time than an Osteopath would.

It wAs expected ‘that one of the warmest contests of the pres- ent legislative session in Minne- sota would arise over the amend- ment of the primary election law which has now had two sria]s without being in the least changed from its original form. Several bills have been introduc- ed to amend the law but thus far the legislature, hampered by an undigested code, has done very little toward even considering the outlines of important legisla- tion and there has been no debate upon the primary election law in either house or senate nor has the law been much discussed in committee. There is quite a general sentiment, however, that the law must remain—further, 1o two legislators are to be found in agreement, and the amend- ments proposed, if a tenth of them get to pass, will make a simple law, a very complex thing. We should not be at all surprised to see the law stand another two years in its present form. Every- body admits that the law is @e- fective but the amendments are quite generally worse than the law. For one thing the law is a pro- lific breeder of the independent voter. No one who watched the campaign last fall can deny that the law largely washed out all party lines. This is in the in- fancy of the law. If it remains upon the statute books for two more elections there will be ab- solutely no such thing as party lines in political subdiyisions to which the law applies. Should the law be applied to the nomina- tion of all candidates political parties will in a few years com- pletely disappear. No wonder the legislature hesitates to take any action on the law-it is a sort of a white ele- phant that no one knows just what to do with An Unpleasant Alternative. THERE are signs that the coun- try is beginning to show a serious interest in the railway rate question. When the time comes that the people of this country actually do take an active inter- est in the matter, we shall all ke face to face with two alternatives —either the railroads must quit their opposition to rate regula- tion, and there must be enacted some reasonable, effective legis- lation granting equitable rates to all or we shall have to work out the problem of government own- ership of railways. We believe that the former al- ternative will be the one which will actually be chosen and we cannot contemplate with equaniamity the thought that the great business of transportation shall ever become a governmental institution. vinced that in such an event poorer service would be rendered and that the political life of the nation would be thereby endan- gered. It is nevertheless the fact that people generally are be- coming restive under the rob béry to which they are subjected by the great railway systems of the country and that they are beginning to realize that the rail- ways are public institutions, and that they should be managed in the interest of the public, not in the interest of a few hundred or ) Bafgain Rates ‘To California March 1 to May 15 the Rock Island ¢ * System will sell “colonist” tickets to prin- cipal points in California at the low rate of $32.90 from St. Paul & Minneapolis Rock Island Tourist Sleepers leave St. Paul and Minneapolis every Tuesday and Thursday, running through to Los Angeles or San Francisco.

Basford of Poolesville Mad., in speaking of her experi- ence in the use of that remedy says: “I havea world of confi- dence in Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy for I have used it with perfect suecess.
