Attacks of kidney complaint bothered me for a number of years and there was a persistent dull ache across the small of my back. The kidney secretions were shanty and painful in passage and gave proof that my kidneys were out of order. Doans Kidney Pills were finally recommended to me and I procured a box. I began their use and to my delight relief followed. Doans Kidney Pills acted directly on my kidneys and in a few days every symptom of kidney, complaint was relieved, I am certain that anyone who gives this remis edy a' fair trial cannot be otherwise than pleased with the re- sults.

Before construction could begin, thousands of square miles of Talley and mountain country were surveyed and mapped, and tunnel and canal lines marked out. A telephone line 38 miles long, extending from Spanish Fork to both portals of the tunnel was const meted, and a wagon road from Diamond Switch, the shipping point on the Denver & Rio Grande railroad, to both portals 32 miles long was made. Down in the fool hills a diversion dam was thrown across Spanish Fork, river and the waters turned into a power canal three and one-hamiles long, which dropped them through huge pipes on the big turbines 100 feet below. Power thus generated was transmitted electrically to the tunnel site, where it was used to turn the diamond drills in the rock, light the camps and run the heavy machinery. The surplus has been sold to towns in the val ley for municipal and commercial purposes. The camps are located a mile and a half above sea level, and during several months each winter have 'practically - been isolated from the world, the roads blocked by masses of snow and ice.

" ,r one-th- pi free-hom- awakening not be quelched in the begimung. After months of eon- -' tinned hammering against the unfair and unjust franchise submitted to the promoters of the infenxrban line, the newspapers of Salt Lake are beginnig to see that the outcome will be disastrous, but the board of commissioners in SaltLake persist in keeping the interurban line nut of that, city by the prohibitive clauses they have placed in the franchise. The Post has been fighting long and earnestly to get interest aroused in the interurban railroad, because it meansmore toward the growth a$d development of Utah County than any enterprise undertaken for many years, with the single exception of the Strawberry project. Upon two different occasions however, have the Salt Lake officials imposed impossible franchises, and now unless the change can be made no interurban road can possibly be built. The Deseret News is beginning to see that the continued arbitral attitude of the Salt Lake Board of Commissioners means trouble all around, and in Thursday evening g issue the following editorial api peared : A city ordinance granting to A. J. Evans, S. L. Chipman, Y. L. Hayes, J. B, Keeler, and others the right to construct and operate an electric road within the City limits, to connect with other cities to the south, was passed on April 11, last. But the applicants for the franT chise, we understand, have refused to accept it. Some of the conditions imposed by the ordinance, they claim are unacceptable, and the chief among these is the one that relates to the taxation. The ordinance stipulates that the road shall pay a yearly tax to Salt, Lake City of the gross income and revenue from all sources of said railroad from North Temple street in Salt Lake ' City to Payson, Utah County. This, it is claimed, is unreasonable and unjust. The parties who propose to huild the road are willing to pay a reasonable tax, but they can not agree to pay a tax to one ity on what they earn in another, and it is quite evident that if Provo, Payson and the other cities the proposed road will pass through should make a similar provision, these expenses would be ' prohibitive. We earnestly hope the Commissioners will reconsider this matter and meet the applicants for the franchise half way. It is true that valuable franchises should not be given away with lavish hand, as sometimes is done, but it is also true that an electric road connecting the southern eounties and its thriving settlements with the Capital would be of immense benefit, not only to this City but to the entire territory through which it would run, and the enterprise should be encouraged. Such a road, like all railroads, whether electric or steam, would help build up the country and trade all along the line. Salt Lake business would gain by it, and so would the business of every settlement from one terminus to the other. There are some conditions, in addition to the question of the tax, to which the applicants for the franchise object, but not quite so strongly. It is stipulated, for instance, that coal and freight cars must not come anyfurther than Fifth South. They suggest Third .South,' Fifth South, however, ought to be far enough within the City limits to suit every purpose. The ordinance, further, provides that the road shall not run trains containing more than two cars, This is thought to be objectionable on the ground that an excursion train of three, four, and fiv.e cars would then have to be run in sections from the City limits to the terminus- .- But-w- e presume some such condition ought to be imposed so as not to hold up the traffic on street crossings too long, . But, as we have said, these conditions are not considered essential. The chief point is the question of the tax, and we believe the Commissioners will deserve well of the public, if they fix this so as to make it possible for the applicants to accept the franchise. been-averte- Will result if your bundle of laundry is sent to us.
