THE JOURNAL AND THE REFORM
EORCER

The election of Governor Chamber
lain is conceded. and the people are
going To get the first fruits OF their la
bors in a special session TO put all
state officials ON fixed salaries. and all
fees are going TO be put in the state
treasury
The result OF this will be differ
ence of S6O,0OO year the first year In
favor Of the taxpayers, and a constant
ly increasing revenue TO the state, and
constant tightening of taxes.
IL the legislators could get Il through
their heada that an extension OF the
$500 per 500 insurance tax enacted
In 1895 TO the gross earnings OF other
corporations not now taxed, they
would add another 100000 To the In
come OF the state. and relieve the
property taxes.

Very many women have written CRATE

Unlisted on by so many home physicians.

treating hundreds Of thousands of women,

Glory hallelujah! Some streets are
being sprinkled that were never
sprinkled before. The Journal believes
in municipal ownership of the sprink-
ling cart. The tax, If divided on all
abutting property, would be ridiculous.

sprinkled all the property on the
street would be equally desirable for
