In another column will be found a notice for a mass meeting, to be held at the city opera house, which was called by Mayor Pogue, and printed at his request, wherein the taxpayers of the city are requested to meet and discuss what they be- lieve would be the best manner in which to expend the $50,000 which has been obtained from the sale of bonds, voted for the purpose of installing a new waterworks system. The Pioneer is told that there has been some objection made to some of the plans already formulated, and it would appear to us that it would be a good plan for anyone who has an objection to raise to attend this meeting and put forth the objection, that it may be met or agreed to. Let there be less “knocking” and clashing of interests. CAUSTIC COMMENT. (A. G. Rutledge.] Too many cooks spoil the broth, but they can’t hurt the breakfast food. Never give unnecessary pain; the cricket is not the nightingale; why tell him so? We come into this world with nothing but a voice; we go out leav- ing even the voice. Speak well your piece while you can. The men say that any woman who has common sense can keep house well; but each of us “men folks” ad- mit freely that it takes exceptional ability to manage our business. It is the business of a newspaper man to “boom” the city in which he lives for all it is worth, month after month, then see $100 worth of print- ing go out of town because 10 cents can be saved by so doing. It is the business of the newspaper man to give every local enterprise enthusias- tic and frequent ‘‘send-offs,” and then catch shoel because he failed to record that some prominent busi- ness man has had his delivery wagon painted; to subscribe liberally to every public, charitable and church enterprise, advertise them for little or nothing and then pay his own way to everything and be called mean- spirited because a column was not devoted to that particular affair. Do you wonder that there are so many “cranks” among the newspaper fraternity? It is bound to make either a crank or a philosopher, or both, out of 2 man. WILL OFFER A LARGE PURSE Qoldfield Wants the Jeffries-Johnson Fight. Goldfield Nev., April 80.—A mass meeting of 1,000 citizens decided that Goldfield should offer $50,000 for a fight between Jack Johnson and James J. Jeffries to take place in the latter part of September during the session of the mining congress. Before the meeting adjourned $40,- 000 of the amount had been pledged and the further decision reached that should $50,000 prove too small a purse to attract the kig fighters any sum within reason would be offered. ‘When the subscription list is com- pleted a formal offer will be made to the fighters. MAY SECURE SUB-TREASURY Representative Stevens Introduces Bill for One in St. Paul. ‘Washington, April 30.—A bil estab‘ lishing a sub-treasury in St. Paul was introduced in the house by Repre- sentative F. C. Stevens. “Whether a sub-treasury will be es- tablished in the Minnesota capital de- pends altogether upon the report of the national monetary commission,” said Mr. Stevens. “If the sub-treas- ury system is continued then such an Institution should be established ‘in St. Paul for the benefit of the North- west. Under present conditions it is very much needed in that section of the country.” GIRL BROKE ENGAGEMENT Double Tragedy Results at Northamp- ton, Mass.

NIPS CUTOFF CANAL PLAN War Department Disapproves of Min- nesota Project. ‘Washington, April 30.—The war de- partment has refused to approve the plans of George W. Ralph, state en- gineer for Minnesota, stationed at St. Paul, on the cutoff canal in Aitkin county, Minn. The plans were dis- approved on the grounds that the cut: off would be injurious to navigation, and that the controlling works were not of a permanent nature. This cutoff canal plan was for the purpose of controlling to certain ex- tent the flood waters of the Missis- sippi. The proposed canal is seven miles in length and the state has spent approximately $25,000 on it in the way of making surveys and esti- mates.

THE DOGTOR'S QUESTION Advice Against the Use of Harsh Purgatives and Physics. A doctor’s first question when consulted by a patient is, “are your bowels regular? He knows that niney-eight per cent of illness is at- tended with inactive bowels and torpid liver. This condition poisons the system with noxious gases and waste matter which naturally accumulates and which must be rg- moved through the bowels before health can be restored. Salts, ordinary pills and cathartics may be truely likened to dynamite. Through their harsh, irritating action they force a passage through the bowels, causing pain and damage to the delicate intestinal structure which weakens the whole system, and at best only produces temporary relief. The repeated use of such treatments cause chronic irritation of the stomach and bowels, hardens their tissues, deadens their nerves, stiffens theit muscles and generally brings about an injurious habit which sometimes has fatal results. We have a positive, pleasant and safe remedy for constipation and bowel disorders in general. We are so certain of its great curative value that we promise to return the purchaser’s money in every case when it fails to produce entire satis- faction. This remedy is called Rex- all Orderlies. We urge you to try them at our entire risk. Rexall Orderlies are very pleasant to take, they act quietly and have a soothing, strengthening, healing in- fluence on the entire intestinal tract. They do not purge, gripe, cause nausea, flatulence, excessive loose- ness, diarrhoea or other annoying ef- fect, and they may be taken at any time without any inconvenience, Rexall Orderlies overcome the drugging habit and cure constipa- tion and all similar ailment, whether acute or chronic. They are especi- ally good for children; weak persons or old folks.Price, 36 tablets, 25c., and 12 tablets, 10c. The B. M.

Y., April 30.—An Italian was shot and instantly killed in a clash between a rioting mob and the employes of the brickyard of the Wa- trous company on the outskirts of this village. The brickyard workers in this neighborhood have been on a strike for higher wages for several days and mobs armed with clubs have driven the workers out of other yards. Two hundred men armed with clubs and stones left the yard of O’Brien & Vaughey in Fishkill and marched to the yard of the Watrous company three miles up the river, which had been reopened after the strike. Fore- man Pat Quinn and three other men employed at the Watrous yard met them. The mob, throwing stones, ad- vanced upon the four men, whereupon Foreman Quinn shot and killed the leader. The other rioters then dis- persed.
