A Suggestion,

If you are troubled with rheumatism or a
lame back, allow us to suggest that you try
the following simple remedy: Take piece
of flannel the size of the two hands, saturate
it with Chamberlain Pain Balm and bind
it on over the seat of pain. 1t will produce
pleasant warmth and relieve you of all
pain. Many severe cases have been cured
in this way. The Pain Balm can be OBJ
tanned from your druggist ws

LANCASTER, June !.
To His Excellency, Robert E. Pattison, Governor
of Pennsylvania

HONORABLE SIR-The undersigned, Chair
man of the State Committee of the Proh1b1-
tion party of Pennsylvania earnestly invokes
the exercise of the veto power, lodged with
you by the Constitution of the State, in part
for protection against unwise and unfair
legislation by the Senate and House OF Rep
resentatives and asks that the act known as
the Baker ballot bill may not be approved
Ffrst-Because one provision of the bill
denies citizens of the Commonwealth free
dom of nomination, and, hence, voting for
candidates by any party name for public Of
flee, unless such nominations arc first at
tested by three per cent of the total vote at
the previous election.
Second-Because, by another provision, no
nomination for any Office can be recognized
and placed on the official ballot, or counted
or returned, unless said nomination shall
first have been petitioned for by one-half OF
per cent of the total vote.
Third-Because another provision requires
that certificates of nomination shall be filed
with the Secretary of the State 56 days be-
fore election and nominating papers ~ days
before election.
Fourth-These several provisions of the
Baker ballot bill are a denial OF the Tree eX-
ercise of the rights conferred by Article !,
Sections and 5, and Article s, Sections and
of the Constitution, and are unjustand op-
pressive.
Fifth-The provisions of the Baker ballot
bill are new in the legislative history of the
State, and can serve only to open the door
for partisan mischief, destructive OF public
interests.
SiSth-In common with general public
sentiment, the voters whom l have the
honor to represent desire the election laws
improved, SO that q free ballot, uninf1uenced
by improper motives or persons, may be
cast.
Seventh-Regarding the Baker ballot bill
as endangering, if not destructive, of the lib
erty, property and lives of the people, /, in
the name of the Prohibitionists of the State,
pray that you refuse to approve the bill.
H d. PATTON,
State Chairman of the Prohibition Party in
Pennsylvania. !
