Ayers
Cherry PeCtOraI

the most effective remedy for coughs
of every kind and in every stage.
One of the most annoying coughs is
a throat cough, where you have that
constant tickling in your throat. 1t
comes on worse at night, keeps you
awake, and makes you have that
smothered feeling in the chest. 1t
hardly seems possible what one dose
of Cherry Pectoral will do for this
kind of cough, it brings such marked
relief.
Put up in large and small bottles.
When the cough gets down deep in
the chest and the lungs are painful,
put one of Ayers Cherry Pectoral
Plasters directly over the tender lung,
1t will draw out all the soreness.

The President Filled Every Appointments
ON the Program and Then Some.
San Francisco, May a5.-President

ed that this was the first appointment

Later Mr.. Mckinley visited the Pres

ed speech to them.

WESTERN CANADA'S
DECEMBER WEATHER
Equal to That of May In Minnesota.

To the Editor;-Thomas Regan and
c. Collins of Eden Valley, Minnesota,
went out to Western Canada last De-
cember as delegates to look over the
grazing and grain lands that are being
offered at such low prices and reason
able terms. This is what they say:
eve arrived in Calgary about the goth
of December and although we had left
winter in Minnesota and Manitoba, we
were surprised to find beautiful warm
weather at this point. quite equal to
what we have in May in Minnesota.
There was no snow nor trace of win
ter to be seen, md the climate was
really splendid. Horses. cattle and
sheep were running out, in prime con-
dition, with plenty of feed ON the prai-
RE, and really better than that of ours
stablJd in the south We are i'm
pressed with this country as one of the
finest mixed farming countries we
have ever seen. The immense tracts
of fertile lands well sheltered and
abundantly watered leave nothing to
be desired.
Leaving Alberta we returned east
and visited the Yorkton district in
Assiniboia. We drove out about ten
miles at this point and were highly
pleased with the splendid samples of
grain we were able to see-wheat
yielding 25 bushels, oats so bushels.
Roots were also good specimens. From
what we have seen. we have decided
TO throw in our lot with the York
toners-satisfied that this part of the
country will furnish good opportuni-
ties for anyone anxious to make the
best of really good country"
Amy agent of the Canadian govern
ment, whose advertisement appears else
where in the columns of your paper
will give you full particulars of the
new districts being opened out this
year in Assiniboia and Saskatchewan.
Yours truly. Old Reader.

|LABLE FOR STATE TAXES.
The New Statute Does Not Relieve
Counties From State Taxes.
OPINION NULLIFlES THE LAW.

Topeka. May e7.-Assistant Attorney
General b. H. Tracy has rendered an
opinion which, if upheld by the SUI
preme court, will require counties to
pay the entire amount of state tax
levied against them whether they col
lect it from the individual taxpayers OF
not. If the opinion is not upheld by
the supreme court, then the state will
lose $500, 900 in revenues this year, an
average of 500. 900 year in the future
and the state treasurer will be COM
PEELED early in the fall to begin stamp
ing warrants mot paid for want of
funds"
The opinion was rendered on the
NoftZger law passed at thelast session
of the legislature. On its face that
law attempts to force the state to give
counties credit for their proportion of
all taxes compromised in the past and
to be compromised in the future 1t
is estimated that at least $500, 900
would be lost to the state on account
of past compromises. The counties
would put in those claims at once and
the state would be deprived of that
much revenue. In the future it would
not be such hard blow, but it would
necessitate raise in the tax levy for
state purposes.
The assistant attorney general holds
that the law does not apply to COM
promises on state taxes, although the
author framed it for that very purpose
The opinion, which practically multi
fies the law, was rendered in reply to
a query from State Auditor George E.
