a man. Any one who has had an at

is demoniac enough to warrant the
belief. 1t has never been claimed that
Chamberlain's Pain Balm would cast
out demons, but it will cure rheuma-
tism, and hundreds bear testimony to
the truth of this statement. One ap-

quick relief which it affords is alone

This assembly, however, must not be
luIled into Indifference or carelessress
on account Of the showing thus made,
for each year adds additional burdens
to the state which must be met. The
cost of maintaining our numerous
schools, all of which have been fully
inaugurated with the exception of the
school OF mines, the increased numbers
IN u state prison and asylum, and in
the reform school, orphans home and
soldiers home, all add additional bur
dens which must be met.
We were enabled to make this show
ing largely by reason Of the legislation
enacted by the last assembly. Two of
the measures enacted by the Fifth legis-
lative assembly call for particular men,
tion at this time. The one is known
as the inheritance tax law" During
1897 the revenue for the state produced
by this law amounted to only one hun
dred and thirty-six dollars and ifty-six
cents ($136. $50, but during 1898 the
state has received as its portion Of the
said tax the sum Of six thousand, nine
hundred and twelve dollars and seven
ty-two n ($6, 912. 72). This is a tax
which hurts no one and can. with all
proprlety, be laid and collected justly.
