TOO MANY
COLLECTORS
Carl Anderson Proposes to
Cut Down the List.
OPPOSITION IS SURE
Temperance Wave Has Made
a Great Difference.
Congressman Anderson Believes In
ternal Revenue Collections Can be
Made with Half Present Force.

II the bill which Representative
Carl Anderson is preparing becomes
a law there VIII be a general reduc-
tion in the Number of internal rev.
enue collectors in the country. At
present there are 35, and under the
measure which Mr.. Anderson will in
troduce this work of collecting the
internal revenL1 of the country will
be done by ten or fifteen.
In this reorganization of the inter
about three collectors will be dis
pensed with in Ohio alone. Besides
a reduction in the number of collec-
tors, there viii be corresponding
decrease in the force OF inspectors
revenue agen-s and clerks. Accord
ing to Mr.. Anderson's estimate, mil
lions of dollars will be saved for the
federal government.
The excuse that Mr.. Anderson
makes for su:h legislation at this
time is the widespread temperance
legislation that is being put into ef-
feet. In Ohio 66 out of 8S coun-
ties have gone dry. Tennessee win
son have absolute prohibition and
most of the southern states are going
dry as the result of the opera
ton of the local option laws. Under
these conditions Mr.. Anderson
thinks it ridiculous for the govern
ment to empl ~ the same force OF
collectors and g. ents as it did pre-
vious to the enactment of temper
ance legislation He calls attention
to the big decrease in the internal
revenue receipts and insists as a
business proposition that the govern
ment should reduce it's force of em-
ployees.
Mr.. Anderson is not alone in this
belief. Representative Payne, OF
New York, the Republican leader OF
the House, has frequently made at
tempts to secure the passage of legis-
lation reducing the number OF GUS
toms collectors and is said to be fa-
vorably inclined. toward the same
policy in the reorganization OF the
internal revenue forces.
or course, the discussion of Mr..
Anderson's bill or any legislation oil
this character will meet with opposi.
tion from the friends OF the internal
revenue collectors. 1t is not at all
improbable that some bill looking to
this end will pass the House at the
next regular session But it will en-
counter very strong opposition in the
Senate. In a great many states the
internal reyen le collectors are tho
chief political lieutenants OF the sen.

When Mike Iron went to the office
of the clerk of courts this morning
to collect his fees as a witness in the
divorce suit OF Maud Il. Wylie
against William p. Wiley, he learn
ed that his wife must pay hlm the
81 he has coming. The expression
on Mikes face when he learned that
his wife is to pay the fees was not
the most good natured.
Mike Iron testified in the Wylie
divorce case which was decided by
the court April 3, the wife securing
divorce on the grounds of gross
neglect and wllful absence. Sunday
Iron and Mrs. Wylie were married.
"Yes, I've tied up again." said Iron
today. This is the third time for
me. My first two women are dead
and both of them were the best ones
that ever lived. I've got another
now just as good, too.
When he secured the license Iron
stated that his age was 45 and his
wifes age was given as %. Her one
child was given into cher custody by
the court Mrs. Wylie worked for
Iron on several occasions and he was
in a position to testify as TO the do
nestle relations or Wylie and his
wife. 1t was during the trial, it is
sad. that Mrs. Wylie and her prin-
cipal witness got in the path of the
cupids arrows and when the decree
was granted, plans for the wedding
were made.
But it is not likely that Iron will
very seriously push his claim for wit
ness fees.

A verdict for $2S942 was secured
by Enola Reynolds in the court of
common pleas Monday afternoon af-
ter legal battle which commenced
in 1900, the defendants being Ressler
Bros, who conduct mill at Gale

case was out but short time when
the verdict was returned by the fore
man, G.. Neimyer.
The case was rather an unusual
one. jefferson Harris was indebted
to Enola Reynolds in the sum of
$29S.6G and judgment was secured
by her for that amount on Nov. IA,
1899. Harris failed, but later his
wife inherited $1,000 and purchased a
farm near Caledonia. Harris, n
reality her agent, hauled 571 bushels
of wheat to the mill of Ressler Bros.
and stored 1t there In his own name
instead of the wife's. He accepted ar
advance OF 800 on the wheat. This

TRUTH ABOUT CATARRH
Sensible Methods Will Cure It. F. G.
Sehramm Guarantees Hyomei
to Cure Catarrh.

Catarrh can never be cured by taking
medicines into the stomach nor by
sprays, atOmizers or douches.
Intelligent physicians have long ago
discarded such ideas, and not one of
them would be worth consideration were
it not for the fact that INSCRIPTIONS
persons prey upon the ignorance of the
people in regard to new discoveries.
Catarrh is caused by germs, and just
as long as these germs thrive in the
folds, creVices, hooks and corners of the
mucous membrane that line the nose,
throat and chest, just so long will you
have catarrh.
There is only one way to cure Ca
tarrh, and that is to kill the germs.
There is only one remedy that will
kill the germs when it gets where the
germs are, and that is Hyomei.
Hyomei is made chiefly from Aus
tralian Eucalyptus and Eucalyptol

septics Just breathe it in through the
