Weak
Hearts
Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine of every
.one hundred peopie who have heart trouble
?can remember when it was simple indiges?
tion. It is a scientific fact that all cases of
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to, but are rae direct result of indi?
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
.swells the stomach, puffing it up against the
heart. This interferes with the action of
the heart, and in *he course of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.
Mr. D. Kanble, of Nevada. O , says: I had stomach
-trouble and ?as ?n a bad state as I had heart trouble
with it 1 took Kodol Dyspepsia Cure for about four
-months and it cured ree,

The Hepburn Bill and the Coal Hoads. I
Another feature of the bill which is
j of the utmost significance requires
that after May 1. 1908, no interstate
carrier shall engage in the transporta?
tion of commodities of its own in com?
petition with shippers over its lines.
/This is intended principally to break
.up the control that the railroads now
exercise over the anthracite coal busi?
ness in toto, and over the bituminous
coal business in large part. It remains
to be seen whether this part of the law
can be so carried out as to be made
really effective. As a rule, the coal
business of the railroads is organized
separately, although the stock, of the
coal companies is owned by the rail?
road companies and the presidents of
the coal roads are' the presidents of
the companies thar mine and sell the
coal. Perhaps the most complete mo?
nopoly, now existing in America is the
anthracite coal monopoly, and it will
be next to impossible to break it up.
For most great trusts and combina?
tions it is easy to present a strong of?
ficial argument based chiefly upon the
economies resulting from the substitu?
tion of unified and co-operative meth?
ods on the large scale for the wastes
and duplications of the old competi?
tive system. But ?O argument at all
can justify a monopoly due to the seiz?
ure of the whole supply of some nat?
ural commodity that is an article of
goner?.! use by a common carrier or a
group of common carriers, whose
proper function is not to traffic in
commodities, but to carry other peo i
pie's, goods at the lowest feasible
prices. If the railroads which touch
the anthracite field of Pennsylvania
had always been limited absolutely
and strictly to their functions as com?
mon carriers the users of anthracite
coal would not today be paying much,
if any, more than one-half of the pres
ant price of coal.-From "The Pro- j
gress of the Wold," in the American j
Monthly Review of Reviews for June. I
Indians as American Citizens.
In joining Indian Territory to the
Territory of Oklahoma in the new
State of Oklahoma congress builded
better for the Indian than it knew. As
in the. case of the admission of many
States-Missouri, California, Kansas
and others-locality and party preju?
dices were brought out strongly in the
Indian Territoy-Oklahoma contest.
Bui:' in this instance the interests im?
mediately concerned are benefited.
This is especially true of the Indians.
Except in one or two spots, the new
State comprises the limits of Indian
Territory before Oklahoma, in parcels,
began to be set off from ic, in 18S9.
Each section (Indian Territory's vast
mineral resources and Oklahoma's
agricultural wealth) supplements the
other. Its 70,000 square miles of area
give it about the average dimensions
(Arkansas, 54,000 square miles; Mis?
souri 69,000 and Kansas S2,000) of its
neighbors. It will be a great, wealthy
and progressive State, with large pos?
sibilities of prestige and prosperity
just ahead of it. Its scenic beauties,
too, are as marked as are its strictly
physical attractions.
Thus, in their new role, as American
citizens the Cherokees, Choctaws.
Chickasaws, Creeks, and Seminoles
start out amid formidable surround?
ings and influences. The Five Civili?
zed Tribes comprise only- about a third 1
of the Indians of' the United States,
but socially they are far mere impor?
tant than all the rest of their race put
together. They have never been in
the reservation stage, through which
the other Indians are passing, and in
which most of them are still. For two
thirds of a century they have been
governing themselves, with legisla?
tures, executives and courts modeled
on those of the United States. They
are the leaders, racially, of the red
men of the American continent.

morrow," by Charles M. Harvey in the

At the term cf the court J. V. John?

two for the second and one for ac?

Politics in Indian Territory.
How will the Indians divide in poli?
tics? This consideration dd much to
determine the attitude of Republicans
ar.d Democrats in congress as between
one State and two for Indian Territory
and Oklahoma, although neither side
acknowledged it. In the present exi?
gency this" question applies to the Five
Tribes-only. Outside of Indian Terri?
tory the red men accept their allot?
ments and get their citizenship piece?
meal, and not by tribes or agencies.
They have had no experience in polit?
ical work.
But in Indian Territory all this is
different. The Five Tribes have been
governing themselves for two-thirds of
a century. Per capita, there are as
many as skilled politicians among
them as are found anywhere in the
country. Delegations from them have
been lobbying in Washington on land
allotment, separate Statehood, and
otner questions for years.
As between the parties, the Indian's
attitude is uncertain. Indian Territory
never having any regularly organized
Territorial government, its people,
. white and red, never had a chance to
vote in mass on anything. Probably
a majority ofthe Indians will vote the
Democratic ticket. Most of the mixed
breeds and intermarried white are
Democrats. A large majority of the
full-blood Cherokees will take the Re?
publican side. The same is true of
the freedmen, or the survivors of the
negro slaves of the old days and their
desc?ndants. In Indian Territory, as
elsewhere, che color line is drawn. The
average mixed-breed Indian has as
much racial antipathy to the negro as
has the average white man of the
South. The negroes of Indian Terri?
tory are not allowed to mix with In?
dians or whites in the schools.
Pleasant Porter, chief of the Creeks,
the most prominent man in the Five
Trioes, whom President Roosevelt de?
clared to be intellectually the greatest
Indian now living, is a Democrat. So
are Green McCurtain, the Choctaw
chief, and Governor Johnston, of the
Chi casa ws, Chiefs W. C. Rogers, of
the Cherokees and John Brown, of the
Seminoles, are likewise classed as
Democrats, although their polltcial
leanings are uncertain. But both Por?
ter and McCurtain are supporters of
Roosevelt. All these are men of edu?
cation and of a high order of natural
ability. On a full vote among the
electors of the ninety-one thousand
members of the Five Tribes the Dem?
ocrats will probably have a majority
of several thousand. Among the
whines of the Territory, who outnum?
ber the Indians, actual and theoretical,
five to one, the Democrats are un?
doubtedly in the preponderence. In the
Oklahoma end of the State the Repub?
licans lead, but not to such an extent
as to over come the Democratic mar?
gin in Indian Territory.-From the

Immigrants for the South.
Our warning against a somewhat
headlong disposition at the south to
introduce into that section a vast
swarm of European immigrants has
provoked a great deal of comment
on both sides of the line. As regards
the criticism emanating from such .
newspapers as the Springfield Repub?
lican and the New York Commercial,
we snail not greatly vex ourselves.
They know nothing about southern
character or conditions, and care less
about southern happiness and pros?
perity. It was quite to be expected
that they would advocate a transplan- ,
tation of the vicious hordes, if only to
mitigate the " infusion in their own j
afflicted territories. In case of our
southern contemporaries, however, we
note a very different tendency, and, as
all our solicitude pointed southward
in the first place, the situation is en?
tirely satisfactory to us.
We have already seen in a number
of the more conservative, substantial,
and enlightened organs of southern
interests and aspirations very favora?
ble and sympathetic references to the
Post's attitude in this respect.
? Meanwhile, the south is virtually
free of savage anarchistic breeding
places; its public sentiment is still the
undiluted Anglo-Saxon articles; its
social institutions are inspired by vir?
tue and morality. The individual is
permitted to earn his living on what?
ever terms and in whatever avoca?
tions he may choose to select. Per?
sonal freedom has no challenger or
tyrant. Personal liberty is without re?
straint, save that of order, law, and
decent conduct. In our opinion, the
south will be wise to heed the coun?
sel of the Charlotte Observer. The
existing situation may not be perfect,
but it may easily be transformed by
foolish haste into incurable calamity.
