About two years ago, at the time of the great Jap-Ruesian War, there was placed with the Stoughton
Wagon Company by the Russian government, an immense order for their wagons to be used in transport-
ing the necessities used in their big battles.
The shipmeut was filled by the Stoughton Wagon Co., and consigned to them via New York, but it
never reached its destination as the steamer was captured by the Japanese fleet.
If the strongest nation on the face of the globe take preference on this particular wagon,
Why Shouldn’t You?
We haye just unloaded a car of these STOUGHTON wagons, we can say that it is
the best thing in the way of a wagon that rolls on four wheels today. They have metal
covered hubs, wnite oak rims, spokes, hubs and hickory axles.

Neighbors got Fooled.
“I was literally coughing myself to
death, and had become t03 weak to
leave my bed; and neighbors predicted
that I would never leave it alive but
they got fooled, for thahks be to God, I
was induced to try Dr. King’s New Dis-
covery. I took just four one dollar bet-
ties to completely cure the cough and
restore me to good sound health,”
writes Mrs. Eva Unoapher, of Grove-
town, Stark Co., Ind. This King of
coughs and colds cures, and healers of
throat and lungs, is guaranteed by Abe

Concerning the Amendments.
Vashti, Texas, July 29, 1907.
T. M. Marks,
Jacksboro, Texas.
Dear sir:—Will you please re-
mind the voters of their obligation
to turn out and vote next Thurs-
day. It’s up to every voter in
Texas without regard to creed or
color as to whether the fundamen-
tal laws will be so awarded as pro-
posed by the six amendments to be
voted on.
In the legislature there was lit-
tle or no opposition to any except
establishing a printing plant which
is questionable whether any money
will be saved thereby. Such ser-
vice is thought will be the result
of a State plant and in time money
saved.
To establish a home for Con-
federate widows would be much
more expensive and benefit a fewer
persons, than if a bounty was al-
lowed them.
An Agricultural Department has
already been created, so it should
have a legislature head. But lit-
tle objection could be argued to
the "creation of improvement dis-
tricts” and "levy of a road tax’’
as a majority of the people would
again have to say whether such
regulation should prevail.
As to the salary proposed for the
legislators, much may be said for
and against. It may be safe to
say that our forefathers never thot
of the volume of business that
comes before the legislature of to-
day; else they would not have
said a regular term should last
only sixty days, and then cut down
to $2 00 per day to hasten adjourn-
ment. Hence rapid legislation will
ensue, which is dangerous. The
salary proposition will tend. to> ac-
celerate the speed.
Yours very truly,
J. L Ballingee..
