Able and Sincere. The following is from the Mar- quette (Mtch.) Mining Journal, a Re- publican paper : «There is a good deal of ill-natured sneering at Charles A. Towne being indulged in by papers opposed to him politically on account of the shortness of his term of service in the senate, but it is not his fault that he occupied a seat in that body only about a month. He would have been willing to serve longer, doubtless, if the Min- nesota legislature had not seen fit to select another man to fill out the bal- ance of the unexpired term of the late Senator Davis, But during the bnef mterval that he held the seat Mr, ‘Towne delivered two speeches which have attracted the attention of the country—one being thatin which he pronounced an eulogy on the charae- ter and career of his deceased prede- cessor, and the other the argument against the policy of the administra- tion in the Philipines with which he closed his work in the senate. Hoth were masterful efforts and have been so pronounced by many who do not agree with him pohttically. It is quite unlikely that the man who was chosen to succeed him will display as much ability in the years he will hold the seat as Mr. Towne ‘lid during the single month he was allowed to fill. it. We do not agree with him in the position he takes on several of the great publie questions now before the American people, but bear willing testimony to his very great ability, and believe him to be sincere, though mis- taken, in his Opinions on the vital issues of the day.” Danger of Colds and La Grippe. The greatest danger from colds and la grippe is their resultiog in pneu monia. If reasonable care is used however, and Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy taken, all danger will be avoided. Among the tens of thou- sands who have used this remedy for these diseases we have yet to learn of a single case having resulted in pueu- monia, which shows conclusively that it is a certain preventive of that dan- gerous malady. It will cure a cold or attack of la grippe in less time than any other treatment. It_is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by the Itasca Mercantile Co. ROAD WILL BE READY Work on Ontario & Rainy River Railway Being Rushed to Completion, Henry C. Clark and H. F. Jaeger, of Chicago, and Walter J. Keating, of Fort Francis, Ont., are in the city, in consultation with other officers of the Alice A., Fmma Abbot and Gold Bug Mining companies, reports the Du- luth News Tribune of Wednesday. ‘They will remain several days. Mr. Keetirg reports having a bard trip en his way down, traveling by team from Fort Francis to Tower— requiring four days, while the ther- mometer ranged from 30 to 40 degrees below zero. He says work on the Ontario & Rainy River railway is being pushed vigorously at numerous points along the nacompleted sections, and will he finished in time to handle the Man toba grain of next harvest. This rail- way is to pass through Fort Francis, while the town of Koochiching, just across the river, expects the Northern Pacific to enter its limits within a year. The falls at these places is one of the great water powers of the North, and plans are being made for utiliz- ing the immense energy now going to waste. Before long some of the largest pulp mills in the world will be erected there to utilize the great forests of pulp-wood timber of that section, which are several hundred miles in extent. The completion of these railroads will of necessity cause a great boom in the mining sections, as well as assist in the settlement of the rich valleys along the northern rivers.

D, Glass, an employe of Bartlett & Dennis Co., ef Gardiner, Maine. Hesays: ‘I had kept adding to a cold and cough in the winter of 1897, trying eyery cough medicine I heard of without perma- nent help, until one day I was in the drug store of Mr. Houlehan and he ad- vised me to try Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy and offered to pay back my money if I was not cured. My lungs and bronchial tubes were very sore at this time, but I was completely cur- ed by this remedy and have since al- ways turned to it when I got a coid, and soon find relief. I also recom- mend it to my friends and am glad to say itis the best of all cough medi- cines.” Forsale by the Itasca Mer- cantile Co. The Herald-Review does first-class job printing.
