TERRITORY NEED8 ATTENTION
Chairman Jenkins Says Judiciary Com-
mittee Will Be Busy
WASHINGTON: Representative Jen-
kins, of Wisconsin chairman of the
house committee on the judiciary, is
spending much time around the
capitol and the machinery of legisla-
tion has been oiled up for the winter's
run. Although rather early in the
game for much in the line of predic-
tion, Representative Jenkins says he
■expects the judiciary committee will
have some rather busy times during
the coming session.
When congress adjourned last spring
there was considerable important bus-
iness before the committee, which re-
mained unfinished and which will un-
doubtedly come up again at the com-
ing session. In this class are a num-
ber of matters for legislation which
concern Indian Territory. Additional
judges are needed there, and there are
many other things that demand atten-
tion. A good deal of much-needed leg-
islation affecting the territory was not
pressed by the judiciary committee at
the last session, owing to the fact that
the statehood bill was before congress,
with a fair chance of passage. It was
the idea of Chairman Jenkins and oth-
er members of the committee to hold
this needed legislation till after the
passage of the statehood bill, when
conditions in the new state could be
adjusted 011 the basis of the creative
act. The feature of the statehood bill,
however, left the territory without this
legislation, which would have been
pushed forward had the result of the
statehood fight been foreseen.
Good Profit-Sharing Entrprise
The United States consul at Vic-
toria, B. C., reports a scheme of profit-
sharing, conducted by the British
company operating the street "railways
and lighting plants in that section,
which is working well. After paying
4 per cent on the stock the balance
of net earnings is divided Into three
parts, two of which go to the stock-
holders and one to employes of more
than a year in equal amounts to each
—a track greaser receiving as much
as goes to the general manager of the
company in London. In 1903, the first
year of trial, a sum equaling $25 per
employe was divided; the next year
$35, and for this year the division,
which has Just been made, amounts
to $40.
Wrote "Abide With Me"
It is sixty years since Rev. Honry
Francis Lyle, who wrote the beautiful
hymn, "Abide With Me," died at Nice,
and this year a final effort is being
made in the far distant little seaport
in Devonshire, where he lived and
ministered for twenty-five years, to
complete the rebuilding of the little
memorial church has taken the flah-
ermen thirty years to build.

Peruna is known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Letters of congratula-
tion and commendation testifying to
the merits of Peruna as a catarrh rem-
edy are pouring in from every State in
the Union. Dr. Hartman is receiving
hundreds of such letters daily. All
classes write these letters, from the
highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti-
san, the clerk, the editor, the statesman,
the preacher—all agree that Peruna is
the catarrh remedy of the age. The
stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh
as their greatest enemy, are especially
enthusiastic in their praise and tes-
timony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh.
Catarrh is well-nigh universal. Peruna
is the best safeguard known.

partment in behalf of the Rialto com-
pany and two charging that he re-
ceived such compensation.

tence of imprisonment on one count

ing the terms concurrent and in addi-
tion assessed the fine on but one of
the counts. As provided in statute 783

A Letter from the Ex-Governor
Oregon.
The Ex-Governor of Oregon is an
ardent admirer of Peruna. He keeps it
continually in the house. In a letter to
Dr. Hartman, he says:
State of Oregon, )
Executive Department. J
The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, O.:
Dear Sirs:—I have had occasion to
use your Peruna medicine In my family
for colds, and It proved to be an excel-
lent remedy. I have not had occasion
to use It for other ailments.
Yours very truly, W. M. Lord.
It will be noticed that the Governor
says he has not had occasion to use
Peruna for other ailments. The reason
for this is, most other ailments begin
with a cold.

NERVOUS?
"For five years I was so sick I could
hardly walk across the floor, and was
very weak and nervous," writes Miss
Mattie Slusher, of Cambria, Va., " but
after taking Cardui I found myself

Do you worry about nothing? Startle at trifles? Feel irritable, peevish, sad and
blue? Suffer from neuralgia, sick headache, dizziness, backache, bearing-down pains? If
so, your nerves are stretched to the snapping point, like the strings of a fiddle twisted up
out of tune, which screeches at the least touch. You are in a dangerous condition of health
and need a medicine to take the strain off your nerves, ff you are a woman, what has
overstrung you is probably disordered menstruality, which, in women, makes more trouble,
pain and nerve sickness than any other single cause. The thing to do is to follow the ex-
ample, being set daily by thousands of women, and take the good, old, reliable remedy for
female disease, with a record of 70 years of success, in the cure of female diseases, viz:

NEW TRIAL ASKED
Phillips Illegal Jury Decision Used As
a Means for Re-hearing
GUTHRIE: William Anderson, who
was convicted at tire last term of
court in Comanche county and sen-
tenced to eight years in the territorial
penitentiary for manslaughter in the
first degree, has appealed his case to
the Oklahoma supreme court and asks
a new trial on the ground that the
grand jury which indicted him, and
the petit jury which tried him, were
illegally drawn under the decision of
Judge Phillips of the circuit court of
appeals. Anderson was convicted of
killing W. C. Barnhill. a union soldier
and former resident of Guthrie, who
drew a claim in the Kiowa and Com-
anche country when it was opened to
settlement in 1901. The killing oc-
curred September 23, 1504. and fol-
