jRAILBOAD COMMISSION BILL.
We give a synopsis of this bill as it
passed the senate.
S-ction Ist. empowers the commission
to make rules to prevent unjust discrimi
nation; to fix the proportion of difference
between longer and shorter distances; to
pievent the giving of at y bonus or rebate,
or doing anything to deceive the public
os to the charge.
Section 2nd. requires the railroads to
fix their rates, and to publish them, and
any changes in them, lor two weeks in
the pap rs of the eight principal cities of
the state, and to post them at their sta
tions. Any person, town, city, or corpo
ration, may object to these rates, stating
what the rates are, and what are thought
reasonable. Tie commission shall give
both parties at least ten days’ notice of
the time for hearing tho case. If, alter
full hearing, they think the rates unrea
sonable, they may fix such as they think
right. Either party may appeal to tie
superior court ol the county in which the
complaint originated. The case shall be
tried at the first term. Either [arty
may apply for a new trial, or except to the
ruling and appeal to the supreme court,
she rates fixed by the commission shall
stand till set aside by the court.
Section 3rd. makes the term “railroad
c, mpany” include all corporations, com
patties, individuals, or receiver, owning
or operating any railroad, in whole or in
part.
Section 4th. prohibits any increase of
rates till 30 days after first notice.
Section sth. makes a bill of lading, re
ceipt for freight, or an ot Jer ol the com
pany establishing such rate or discrimi
nation, sufficient evidence.
If any party has rights which are not
protected by this bill as fully as any
rights are protected by law, we do not
sec them. Those who have spent, their
money in building ,>r buying a railroad
are the ones to say v. hat charges on
f reight or passengers will pay them a liv
ing profit. This bill certainly makes suf
ficient provision for having any unreason
ablechargecoirectcd.il> the same way
that other wrongs are righted.

A MLSSOUKI 1-OKEi: STORY.
A good story com' s (tom Troy. Lincoln
count , which is told at the ex[ ense of a
landlord, whose love for the exciting
game of poker caused bitn to part with a
well fil ed wallet one night during la.- 1
week Having ordered u load or two of
cord-wood from a farmer, the latter tn
due lime delivered the same in front of
bn customer's residence, when not Jong
after seedy looking individual came
along armed with a saw and I.tick and se
curing the job went to work in dead earn
est. for which he was to receive the mu
r.ificent sum of sl. Accomplishing the
task jus'as tbe bell rang for .-upper he
was asked to partake ol the meal, which
invitation he accepted without much
pressing. Bu|iper over he was paid the
doll r for the wood job, uud loitering
ao find the stove he heard his (benefactor
invite several friends there to join him in
a friendly game of poker, to which they
readily ssserilen. Ibe heaver of wood
looked complacent yon tbe game for a
time, and addressing himself to the host
requested the privilege of taking a hand,
saying that although apparently destitute
he would blow in tho dollar, adding tha:
cauls were the ca:t»e of bis present de
cradi d posit ton in society. All advice
onthe part of the players for the fellow
to ho.d on to his only collar | rev <1 una
vailing and finally he was admitted to
the game. In a short time he found his
winnings swelled to SSO, when, exasper
ated. one cf the party raised the pot to
$21:0, thinking by that means to Ircez
the fe'low out. Going down in his boot
leg he pul'cd forth a toll and covering the
bet soon found, to tl.a dismay of the
crowd, that the “boodle” was again his.
A scene followed which at one time prom
ised to I,econ.c a esuse celebre at Troy,
but the cheek rs the wood sawyer carried
him successfully out of tbe woo s. He
sns surround'd y the crowd and threat
ened with death, arrest, cremation, pul

did he not return the money. Did lie

A I.uily'H Opinion.
Mrs. Geo. Gilbert, Bryan, Ohio, writes.
“Dk. S. B. Hartman & Co.. Columbus,
Ohio: I commenced on the filth bottle ot
jour Peki'Na this morning, and should
just as soon think of doing without m>
meals ns without ;ny medic.ne. 1
have been doctoring tor ab:r.:t four
years, aid kept getting worse all the
tune and was jti't giving up in d «•'
when 1 got one of your books, ” 1 he I.'
of Life.” I was in bed nt the time. I
read and re-read your book and felt I
trying your medicine. My f> ks thought
there was no use in try mg anything more.
I was too far gone, and might as well
make up my mind to die. I told them
I’EKUNA was the medicine I i -cd J. and
I intended to try a bottle. It proc. I a suc
cess in breaking the chills, and if it had
not done one thing more, I would have
been satisfied. Ent it has done more, and
I feel like another peison. Everybody
that secs me is surprised to see me looking
so well, as they all thought I was dying
with consumption, an 1 now mv own folks
have as much to say for the PerUXA as
I. I recommend it to everybody I see.
Thcfe were two ot our neighbors in yes
terday inquiring about the I’EKUNA I
gave the one my book to read; told her
to bring it back, as 1 prized it very high
ly. The other got tue name of the I’b
rvna to send to his son th Chicago. He
is a telegraph operator My disease is
something similar to Mrs. Milo Ingram's,
though nothing compared to being so bad.
There was a lump raised on mv collar
bone, and It 'w.ts a long time before it
looked like opening. '1 he doctor said lie
would have to lance it in a few days, but
I thought I would attend to that myself,
so I put a little fly blister on it and it
opened; then I put a poultice on and then
salve, and kept the salve on ad the time.
It got so b d and spread upon my left
shoulder, and one place under my left
breast. Then there were two places on
my head, one near the temple and one
back of my ear that was just dreadful.
No tongue c.n". tell what I suffered. My
m ad telt sc. atiunge sometimes. I thought
I was going crazy. Since I have used
the PERUNA (I don’t use the salve any
more) my sorea healed up right away.
And oh, what a relief it is to get around
without chilling and having to suffer with
my sores. I feel like letting everybody
know all about it."
