Brain Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most compe-
tent authorities. They have dis
covered the silly notion that one
kind of food is needed for brain
another for muscle, and still an
other for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish particular
part of the body, but will sustain
every other part. Yet, however
good your food may be, its nutri-
ment is destroyed by indigestion
or dyspepsia. You must prepare
for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular
doses of Green's August Flower,
the favorite medicine of the
healthy millions. A few doses
aids digestion, stimulates the liver
to healthy action, purifes the
blood and makes you feel buoyant
and vigorous. You can get DIR.

omy and honesty in the public
service shall be again regarded as
virtues in the high places of the
Government.
Expenses of Government.
The expenditures per capita Of
the Government are increasing at
an alarming rate. When the
present Administration went into
power there was a large surplus,
but notwithstanding the enormous
taxation. the revenues therefrom
are not now adequate to meet the
demands made by reckless apprO-
priations. The revenues fell short
during the last fiscal year, of over
100000. In the first sixty days
of the fiscal year the expenditures
exceeded the receipts by $24, OOO,-
600, and if this rate Of excess
should continue, the deficit for
the present fiscal year would be
in the neighborhood Of $14O,OOO,-
900. This needless deficit is due
to the extravaganza OF the Ad-
ministration. and can only be
met by imposing additional taxes
or selling bonds, thereby increas-
ing the Understanding debt OF
the Government. Which course
will the Republican adopt? The
cost of governemnt during the fis-
cal year was STA per capita,
which means that the average tax
paid in some form or another by
every family of five persons to-
ward the support of the National
Administration of public affairs
was over $25. which, in the case
of wage earners. is a considerable
percentage of their entire earn
| ings fer the year. No more money
should be taken from the people
by taxation, direct or indirect
than is necessary for the needs of
government economically admin
istered. To show the rapid growth
Of the cost of government 1t Is
only necessary to give the total
expenditures in the last fiscal year
of the following administrations:
Buchanan, 1860, $63, 100000
per capita, $201.
Cleveland, 1892, $345, 100000
per capita, 1929.

Army.
In answer to criticisms upon the
size and expense of maintaining
the Army, the President has said
that the number of soldiers now
is no greater per capita than IN
former years. But an Army then
was necessary to protect settlers
from the Indians and to do their
police duty in the unsettled por-
ton of the country-conditions
which do not now exist. The
| Army, however, has greatly in
creased in cost, much faster rela-
lively than it has in numbers. The
expenses were:
Under Buchanan in 1860, $l6,.
100000. ...
Under Hayes in 1880, $3s, OOO,'
600.
Under Roosevelt in 1904, $115,'

CEpTa'NCE OF
HENRY G DAVIS

Henry G. Davis letter of ac-
ceptance as the Democratic candl-
date as Vice President of the Uni
ted States follows:
Hon. Sharp Williams, Chairman,
and other Members of the Com
mittee:
Dear S::rs In accordance with
custom, and ny promise when not
flied by your committee at White
Sulphur Springs on August II OF
my nomination for the office OF
Vice President, | submit the fol
lowing observations upon some OF
the questions now before the coun-
try:
Times Propitious for Change.
The times are propitious for the
reinstatement Of the Democratic
marty in control of the Govern
ment. The public mind is being
disillusioned of the pretension of
the Republican party, so long and
so arrogantly made, that the MAJ
terial prosperity of the country
depends upon its own acendancy.
Thoughtful and patriotic people
are becoming more and more dis
trustful of the heady and per-
sonal element of the present adj
ministratiOn, and are more than
willing to see it replaced iY one
that better recognizes c"n%tltu-
tiOnal and other lawful restraints.
They demand that the present
wasteful extravaganza in the eX-
penditure of the money, drawn by
taxation from the industry OF the
people. shall cease, and that econ
omy and honesty in the public
service shall be again regarded as
virtues in the high places Of the
Government.

Thousands were caught In the web of

At last nights meeting Of the coun-
ell the case OF Lighthouse" Nelson
was discussed Councilman Lebeck
brought up the matter. Nelson, who is
old and half-witted. had been induced
to conduct himself in disgraceful
manner. and Mr.. Lebeck expressed the
opinion that the matter should prompt
the council TO revoke the license OF
the saloon in which Nelson misbehaved
himself. Councilman Nordstrom de-
nounced disorderly places, but said
Astoria depended upon crime for its
revenue, and that 1t was highly incon-
sistent for the council to take cogniz-
ance OF this particular case. Il should
think all such places should be driven
from the CITY," said Mr.. Nordstrom,
IF this Is not done, they will drive
out decent people" Mr.. Smith, city at
torney, said the council had the power
to revoke licenses, and that a resolu-
tion would have the effect of Furnishing
the proprietors of the place. Mr.. Bel
land believed the licenses of all disor-
derry places ought to. be revoked. but
he said there was no complaint before
the council. Mr.. Lebeck replied that
councilmen were all familiar with the
circumstances, but Mr.. Belland pro-
fessed ignorance Of the facts. The
council adjourned before any action
had been taken.
