IOWA'S TREASURY EMPTY
A Deficit Of Nearly Half a Million, and a
Tax Increase Necessary.

Kansas may have trouble, but when 1t
does 1t piles up knee deep with people
OF other States. Kansas has had tenn
porary deficit In the general fund In It's
treasury but now comes Iowa, Republl-
can since the war, with deficit amount
Ing to $410,S27.77. A certain class of
papers has labored hard to make 1t
appear that the Kansas trouble is due
to the extravaganza and incOmpetencY
of the POpulist administration. IL thi9
be true how can these papers charge the
Iowa condition to anything but the same
sort Of government on the part of Re-
publlcans, who have been In control
since the war The recent report Of
State Auditor Mccarthy shows that as
long ago as July !, 1895, the deficit
amounted to s73,950.25 and that It has
constantly grown since then and that
1t will continue to grow, IL the regular
order Of things continues, until It will
reach S492,613 by July /, 1899. Among
the causes given for this condition Ia
a per cent decrease In assessed valu-
atlons and the delinquency OF counties
in the payment Of State taxes to the
amount Of 1871 ,644. The increase In the
expense Of State institutions and the
cost Of an extra session are also noted
as partial causes. Mr.. Mccarthy rec
ommends an increase in the tax levy
and less extravagant appropriations as
the means OF bringing the business of
the State to cash basis. Kansas can
congratulate herself on the fact that no
increase in the tax levy will be neces-
sary to bring its business to cash
basis because the present administration
will so economically conduct affairs that
1t will not be necessary. Kansas is In
deed q fortunate State.

Mr.. Isaac Horner, proprietor of the

of the most widely known men in the
state, was cured of rheumatism after
three years of suffering. He says: 81
have not sufficient command of Ian
guage TO convey any idea of what l
suffered, my physicians told me that
nothing could be done for me and nv
friends were fully convinced that moth
ing but death would relieve me of my
suffering. In June, 1894, Mr.. Evans.
then salesman for the Wheeling Drug
Co, recommended Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. At this time my foot and limb
were swollen to more than double
their normal size and it seemed to me
my leg would burst, but soon after |
began using the Pain Balm the swell
ing began to decrease, the pain to
leave, and now 1 consider that l am
entirely cured" For sale by all drug

will be kept pretty busy, for a number
of bicycle events are on the program
for the Frouth of July.
In regard to the bicycle races, quite
a number of people have complained
that the wheelmen should have been
made to run off the events, no matter
how bad the track They have cited
the instance of the novelty race, in
which Sylvester won without getting
off his wheel and without encounter
ing an accident of any kind whatso-
ever.
However, in offering this as a rea-
son why the other wheelmen should
have run off the various bicycle events
they lost sight of the fact that Syl-
vester was so far ahead of the other
two young men in the race that they
made absolutely no difference to him
Had he been in a bunch, and as close
as wheelmen often are in an exciting
race, there surely would have been
an accident, and the boys showed theiI
good judgment in keeping their bicy-
Giles in training quarters.
