are a most remarkable remedy
for the relief of periodic pains,

AS pain is weakening, and
leaves the system in an ex-

to suffer a moment longer than
necessary, and you should take
the Anti-Pain Pills on first in
dication of an attack.
If taken as directed you may
have entire confidence in their
effectiveness, as we'll as in the
fact that they will leave no dis

They contain no morphine,

the same is applied to the i'm
provement of the schools in their
own neighborhood and goes into
the hearts and minds of their own
children.
"Some few parishes and towns
have voted railroad taxes-so
many mills for SO many years
without specifying any particular
sum to be raised after the reall-
cation of which such tax should
cease and determine.
.That was unwise in this; that
no special railroad tax should be
voted to raise a given sum, and
that when this sum is realized the
tax shall cease. But parishes, or
towns, or wards that have made
the mistake of voting railroad
taxes in the way indicated, viz: So
many mills for so many years.
without guarding their interests
by the stipulation of an aggregate
sum to be raised, after which the
tax is to cease, should not stand
in the way of the States progress
by opposing the plan proposed
for reform in assessments and re-
duction in the rate of taxation.
"Equalizing assessments does
not mean increasing the assess
ments on property already as
sessed high as compared with the
property of others. 1t means
bringing the assessments of the
latter to the figures of the former.
"Thus, the assessment on the
property of some people may be
high enough; on the property of
others entirely too low as COM
pared with their neighbors =.
Equalization means bringing the
assessment of the latter up to the
figures of the former; not still
further increasing the assessments
of those whose assessments are
already high enough.
"Again, equalization means that
all the property d man owns (not
exempt by law from taxation)
should bear its just proportion of
the burdens of government.
Where one man pays taxes on all
the taxable property he owns and
the other pays on only a part he
owns. there IS inequality and in
justice, and equalization demands
that all the taxable property of
the latter be brought on the rolls.
SAT the session of the Legisla-
ture two years ago, the appropri-
ations made were predIcated On
probable aggregate assessments
for 1904. The exact assessment
for that year was not then known.
The Legislative Committee as
sisted by the Auditor and Treas
urer, estimated the probable as
sessment for 1904 at $3.50, goo, 900.
That they came very near the
mark is shown by the fact that
when the rolls were, later, COM
pleted and the aggregate assess
ment footed up, it showed $751;
018,941. The assessment for the
preceding year, 1903, had been

sit took all the six mills al
lowed by the Constitution for
State taxes to raise sufficient
money on that valuation to meet
the expenses of the State as per
the appropriation made.
'Buqwhen the legislature meets
this spring it will find that the
assessment for 1905 aggregated
nearly $500, 900, 900, and that it is
probable the assessment for 1906
will be largely In excess of that.
