Next Monday evening Congressman Watson will address the members of the Commercial club on "Closer Relations With South America." At this time, when the relations of the United States are more or less strained with one great foreign nation and on a very pleasant basis with the South American governments, a more timely or important topic for discussion could hardly have been chosen. To strengthen our own country both at home and abroad should be paramour to all other things in the consideration I of the citizens of tha United States. We have seen that Japan's overwhelming ambition and national concoitedness have lately nearly drawn it into a war with this country. Furthermore, Japan ha certainly given the impression of desiring such a war and it is felt that the only consideration that has compelled it to remain in the paths of peace is the great national indebtedness, amounting almost to national banlcrupcy. With a few years of prosperous times, however, this condition will have been removed andJapan, if its present mode still continues, will not only be willing for a great trial of strength but will also be prepared for it. The Japanese are working meantime with might and main to strengthen their position with foreign nations. They have a defensive and offensive alliance with England and have also arranged some very good ties with France. Furthermore, it looks very much as though Japan and Russia would get together on pretty good terms in spite of their recent trouble and the humiliation of Russia. Where does the United States stand in case of trouble or war? Absolutely alone. We have followed George Washington's admonition not to contract any entangling alliances with foreign nations to the letter. And, somehow or another, it seems as though we have not acted for our best interests. Besides, considering the times in which George Washington lived and the events that were happening at that time it is more than likely that in his reference to foreign nations he meant the nations of Europe, monarchies, if you please, with whom it would not be good policy for the then struggling American republic to be in alliance. At that time South America was divided among various European kingdoms and their governments were naturally not in sympathy with the republican movement in the northern part of the western hemisphere. That is all changed today and South America similar to the greatest portion of North America is ruled by the republican idea. Would it not be wise, therefore, if the great republics of both North and South America worked together under a defensive and offensive alliance? Our Interests are to ail intents and purposes the same. We wish to preserve our territorial integrity and maintain the western hemisphere just as it Is, the garden spot of the world, as far as personal freedom Is concerned. IS A SUBSTANTIAL PLACE. A careful analysis of the facts gleaned by Secretary Haas of the Commercial club concerning our city show that Richmond is a pretty substantial place to live in. The report shows j that not only are we well off in regard to splendid and prosperous industries but that our citizens are also well off in the manner in which the city looks after their weifare and comfort. In some cases, as with the Reid Memorial hospital, this has come about through the action of some public spirited man and in others, as in the case of our splendid park system, through a definite policy covering a number of years. In fact the chief thing the report shows is that Richmond has taken extraordinary good care of its citizens and that it has been repaid a thousandfold by the good class of citizens within its limits. The city's example In providing beautiful parks and showing a progressive spirit continually, as in the case of the cement sidewalks and gutter Improvements, has been followed by all our citizens who have added to the city's beauty their share in the shape of attractive and well built houses surrounded by well kept grounds. The conditions .under which they live have Inspired our citizens to strive for bet-

ter things as is clearly shown in the ; number and resources of our banks and savings institutions. Turning from these material considerations we come to the twenty-six churches in the city showing that our material advancement has not surpassed nor fallen behind but has gone along with our spiritual advancement. And, just as important, is the number and equipments of our schools and colleges, showing that the greater help to either the spiritual or material life, knowledge, is well provided for our future generations. And with all these things we can not help but feel that Richmond's success in the past will be continued indefinitely under such conditions and surrounded by such environments. HIGH SCHOOL FRATERNITIES. School boards in various cities of the state seem to have been successful in stamping out the high school fraternities and by so doing have conferred a real benefit on the present and future citizens of this state. It is not that high school students are too young, but that fraternities engender the wrong spirit in a public school. All public schools are by their nature primarily democratic, and the fraternity in a public school tends to defeat that object. High school fraternities are but social organizations, and in no way approach the ideals or practices" of the lodges or secret orders to which more mature men and women belong. The high school fraternity being for social purposes alone, naturally draws the lines tightly and is essentially exclusive, therefore, teaching not democracy, but the exclusiveness out of which has grown our modern and snobbish "high society." The modern lodge or secret order reaches out its hand to all who are worthy to join, whether they are rich or whether they are poor, thus helping to preserve and perpetuate those ideals of democracy and equality which our forefathers left to our country. By substituting the ex clusively social spirit for the openhanded and open-hearted democracy of i the lodges the high school fraternity subjects many members of the school body to the pangs of bitter disappointment, because they were not "good fallows" enough to be thought worthy of admission, no matter how worthy they may have been morally and otherwise. Thus we see the high school fraternity was at variance with well established j American customs and beliefs and those of our school boards that secur- j ed their elimination from the public schools have done their state and coun try a great service. FREIGHT INTERCHANGE. Apropos of the tour of inspection of President McCrea of the Pennsylvania which will bring him through Richmond on October 10, it has occurred to us it might be wise to interest him. if possible, in one of the most important questions before the Richmond public today, freight interchange between the Pennsylvania and the C, C. & L. We believe that any man who occupies as
A VISIT TO AMERICA.
responsible a position as president of the Pennsylvania railroad can not be otherwise than broad and just in his dealings with his fellow men. Naturally President McCrea owes allegiance to the Pennsylvania railroad and must act for its best interests where they do not conflict with the laws of the land. That this latter part is true has been clearly demonstrated by the recent government investigations. Now the state railroad commission has decreed that the Pennsylvania railroad shall co-operate with the C, C. & L. in providing freight interchange so as to benefit Richmond's industries. Would it not be a good plan, therefore, for a committee from the Commercial club to arrange, if possible, to meet President McCrea when he passes through Richmond on his tour of inspection, explain the situation to him and try to arrive at a satisfactory conclusion that will be fair to all parties concerned? Next to President Roosevelt, Mrs. Cassie 'chadwick seems to get the largest amount of free advertising in the newspapers. Mayor Schillinger should not show such a disposition to look a gift horse(pital) in the mouth. If Count Szechenyi Is Gladys Vanderbilt's fance, she might be called his "finance." OVERTAXED Hundreds of Richmond Readers Know What it Means. The kidneys are overtaxed; Have to much to do. They tell about it in many aches and pains Backache, sideache, headache, Early symptoms of kidney ills. Urinary troubles, diabetes, Bright's disease follow. A Richmond citizen tells here a certain cure. Dallas Cassel, living at 711 South Eighth St., Richmond, Ind., says: ' I think it was about fifteen years ago that I was cured by Doan's Kidney Pills. At that time I was working, and in the course of a hard day s work had quite a bit of heavy lifting which brought on severe backache and dizzy headaches. I had tried several remedies but with no effect. Finally I was induced to get a box of Doan's Kidney Pills at A. G. Luken & Co.'s drug store. After I had taken them or a short time the du31 acbJng in back disappeared and with it the headaches. Since that time I have not been troubled, and nave recoinmended Doan's Kidney Pills to many otner sufferers." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cens.

Do Your Meals Fit?
Do You Feel Snug and Comfortable Around Your Waist Line After a Hearty Meal? Did your last meal taste deliciously good to you, and did you eat all you wanted V Could you have patted your rotundity in glee and felt proud of your appetite and of your good strong stomach? Do you feel rosy now because your last meal gave you no inconvenience whatever? If not. you have dyspepsia in some form, and probably never realized it. you have the least trouble in your stomach after eating no matter how little or how much yau eat, there is trouble brewing and you must correct it at once. Most all stomach trouble comes from poor, weak, scanty gastric juice, that precious liquid which ought to turn your food into rich, red blood. If you have nausea, your gastric juice is weak. If you have sour risings or belchings, your food is fermenting; your gastric juice is weak. If you have loss of appetite, your gastric juice is weak. If you have a bloaty feeling of avarsion to food, your gastric juice is weak. - You need something in your stomach to supply the gastric juice which is scanty, and to give power to the weak gastric juice. Smart's Dyspepsia Tablets do this very tiling. Now think one grain of one of the ingredients of these wonderful little tablets digests 3,ki grains of food, 'ihey are several times more powerful than the gastric juice in a good, strong, powerful stomach. They actually digest your food for you. Besides, they increase the flow of gastric juice, just what you need to get all the good possible out of everything you eat. You will never have that "lump of lead" in your stomach nor any other stomach trouble after taking Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Then everything you eat will be digested, it will give you strength, vim. energy and a rosy disposition. You'll feel good all around your waist line after every meal and it will make you feel good all over. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will make you feel happy after eating a good, hearty meal. Take one or two after eating. You'll feel fine then' your meals will fit, no matter what or when you eat. We want to send you a sample package of Stuart's Dyspepsia tablets free of charge, so you can test them yourseif and be convinced. After you have tried the sample, you will be so satisfied that you will go to the nearest drug store and get a oic box. Send us j-our name and address today and we will at once send you by mail a sample package free. Address F. A. Stuart Co., 150 Stuart Bldg., Marshall, Mich. AN INGRATE SOLDIER. His Cowardly Action Was thd Making of a Nobleman. Here Is a story of the battlefield. There was war between the Swedes and the Danes. One day a great battle was fought, and the Swedes were beaten and driven from the field. A soldier of the Danes who had been slightly wounded was sitting on th ground. He w&s about to take a drink from a flask. All at once he heard some one say: "Oh, sir, give me a drink, for I am dying!" It was a wounded Swede who spoke. He was lying on the ground only a little way off. The Dane went to him at once. He knelt down by the side of his fallen foe and pressed the flask to his lips. "Drink," said he, "for thy need is greater than mine." Hardly had he spoken these word9 when the Swede raised himself on his elbow. He pulled a pistol from his pocket and shot at the man who would have befriended him. The bullet grazed the Dane's shoulder, but did not do him much harm. "Ah, you rascal!" he cried. "I was going to befriend you, and you repay me by trying to kill me. Now I will punish you. I would have given you all the water, but now you shall have only half." And with that he drank the half of it and then gave the rest to the Swede. When the king of the Danes heard about this he sent for the soldier and had him tell the story just as it was. "Why did you spare the life of the Swede after he had tried to kill you?" asked the king. "Because, sir," said the soldier, "I could never kill a wounded enemy." "Then you deserve to be a nobleman," said the king. And he rewarded him by making him a knight and giving him a noble title. "Famous Stories Retold." Needless Ceremony. Teter had been hastily bidden to Bobby Hunt's party, and his mother was "rounding him up" in front of the washstand. "Oh, mother," he said, "do I have to have a whole bath?" "Certainly." Peter mumbled something, and hi? mother asked him what it was. "I said were you sure it wasn't just your idea." replied Peter. "I'm certain I heard Bobby's mother tell you over the telephone that the party was very informal." Youth's Companion. He Knew Them. Once at an important function at Marlborough House Sir Francis Knoilys came up to the Prince of Wales and remarked. "Some gentlemen of the press wish admission, your royal highness." "Oh," said the prince, "show them in. If they don't come in at the door, they'll come in at the ventilator." In Harness. "It must be fun." suggested the friend, "to dally dally with these shafts of wit" "Not when you're hitched btw?r em," responded the press humoris with a sickly smile. Louisville Cot-rier-Journal.

PUSHING WORK OH HEW FREIGHT HOUSE
Pennsylvania Is Hurrying Construction on New Building in Richmond. WILL TAKE SOME MONTHS. THERE IS A GOOD FOREIGN DEMAND FOR RAILWAY SUPPLIES CARS IN DEMAND FOR HEAVY TRAFFIC RAILROAD NEWS. The Pennsylvania railroad is still pushing the work on the new freight house on North D street. It was hoped by local officials that the freight house could be completed before the beginning of cold weather and that u might aid materially in preventing a ! fivht congestion in this city, such .is occurred last year. It seems now i hat the new freight house cannot be completed for several months. Since the matter of freight interchange between the C, C. L. railroad and the Pennsylvania has been in doubt the work has not progressed as rapidly as was hoped for. GOOD FOREIGN DEMAND. The statement issued by the department of commerce and labor for the first seven months of the current year shows an unprecedented foreign demand for locomotives, cars and rails, the exports being !lt;..".-J;,MX. compared with .;i:?,.i!Xmm in the corresponding months of 1xm; and $s.i;i:,xs in irx.-. Exports of cars were J? G.l !", hm, of which $1,:;::7.717 went ht Central America and $1,1 7r.'".M to Mexico. Altogether the exports to Mexico Central America and South America and Canada amounted to :4.rX,H. Shipments of steel rails were valued at i?-,;S7,040, being about the same as last year, but ;,)( ahead of lfxr. British North America proved to be the best market for locomotives, taking $1,1SUI0) out of a total of St.Slo,418. CARS ARE IN DEMAND. October, always an active month in the traffic world, is full of business! this year. The grain traffic is reported as the largest since the fall of 1808. ! Deliveries at Chicago last week aggre-j suieu v,vs i,vxv Dusneis. rnis com-1 pares with 8.074.00O bushels the preceding week, with 7,294,000 bushels for the corresponding week of 1!h;, and 6,750,000 bushels for 1905. Chicago reflects conditions elsewhere, as receipts of grain at the primary markets were 2O.98S.0OO bushels, the greatest in eight years. This great movement of grain is due to the extraordinary efforts of the railroads to meet the emergency by rushing empty cars to points in the West at which grain shipments are made. ORDERS LEAD TO CONFUSION. Printing bills of Southern and Wes-! tern railroads are being very substan-: tially increased through the necessity i of reissuing, under the regulations prescribed by the Interstate Commerce Commission in Speciol Circular No. I 14A, very many tariffs, the changes in ' which would formerly have been ef-, fected by the issuance of supplements. I A large number of tariffs on cotton, ; cottonseed products, coal, live stock and lumber are being turned out at present and, undoubtedly to the charg- j in of tariff departments, many of them ; are being turned back by the com-! mission as not being in precise conformity with the rules promulgated. NOT GOOD ON PARLOR CARS. On and after Nov. 1 tickets sold at second-class party rates will not be good in parlor cars or standard or tourist sleepers on Western roads. In addition, these lines will also discontinue the practice of transferring baggage free between stations unless the holders hold through tickets. WOMEN GREAT TRAVELERS. The spirit of independence on the part of American women was never better illustrated than at the present time, according to a well known Pennsylvania conductor, running into this city. He claimed that the railroads were hauling a larger number of unaccompanied women than ever before in their history. Women seem to be better able to care for themselves today than they did several years ago and consequently they travel more unaccompanied. A large number of the travelers out of and through Richmond each day are women. BUSINESS IS HEAVY. An Tinusually large amount of business is being handled by the Pennsylvania in the east-end yards at the present time. The yard crews are being worked both day and night and cars reaching Richmond for transfer to other divisions of the road are transferred with much dispatch. Thousands of cars are handled by local yard crews in the course of every month. TRAVEL TOCHICAGO. As a result of the tie game between Chicago and Detroit in the world's championship series, now on between the two teams, the C, C. & L. railroad probably will carry a large number of fans to Chicago next Saturday night Without a tie game Tuesday the series might have ended Saturday but now the teams probably will return to Chicago from Detroit on Sunday, and the railroads will profit thereby.

WOMEN WHO CHARM Health Is tHe First Essential Toward Mahlng a Woman Attractive.
MISS HULDA KUGHLER There is a beauty and attractiveness in health whioh is far greater than mere regularity of feature. A sicklv, irritable, and compla'V.tjjr woman always carries a cloud i-f depression wit':i her; she is not only unhappy herself but is a ila;n;.'r to all joy and happiness wuen with her family and friends. It is the bright, healthy, vivacious woman who always charms and carries sunshine wherever she goes. If a woman tinds that her energies are fiajrging ami that everything tires her; if her femiuine s.v.stem fails to perforin its allotted duties there is nervousness, sleeplessness, faintness, backache, headache, bearing -dou n pains, and irregularities, causing constant misery and melancholia, she should remember that Lydia H. Pinkham'5 Vegetable Compound made from native roots and herbs will dispel all these troubles. Ity correcting the cause of the trouble it cures where other treatment may fcave failed. Miss Elizabeth Wynn, of No. 205 8th Avenue, New York City, writes : Dear Mrs. Pinkham; "For months I suffered with drnndful hdaches, pain in the back ami sever hemorrhages. I wan weak aul out of sorts all the time- Lydia E. Innkharu's Vegetable Compound helped me when all other medicine had failed. It seemed to be just what I noeded and quickly i-eotorod my health." A large tract of coal land in the province of Alberta has been purchased as a result of recent investigations, and claims have been filed for 12.000 Acres of what is said to be the best coal land in the northwest. In connection with the development of the coal lands the company has acquired the charter of the Great Western railroad, which extends from Calgary through the coal fields to the international boundary. A major part of the stock in the new company, which has applied for a charter, will be held at Port Arthur. -Consular Report.
