President Roosevelt seems likely to go out of office with an unusually large record of special messages. The latest is a veto of the act providing for the taking of the next census. He objects to the section which provides in ef- feet that appointments to the census shall be under the spells system" and he urges, in the interest of accuracy in the statistical work, that the appoin- tees should only be chosen "after com- petitive examination from the lists of eligibles provided by the Civil Service Commission He would also waive the requirements of the the civil ser vice law as regards geographical ap- environments.
 The Republican politicians who have long regarded census taking as their especial plum and as means of re- warding their workers, will probably think that the President is wantonly interfering with their operations, but Congress will nevertheless hardly dare to pass the bill over the veto. although most of the Republican members are somewhat "sore,'' for other reasons, with the Roosevelt Administration

For some years, there has been upon the statute books a law requiring full valuation assessments. It has been obeyed in some towns, but quite a number are still assessing at from about one-third to two-thirds valua- tion Except in the matter of county taxation, this failure to obey the law Gid not have any particularly wrongful results
 Now, re-enactment of a state tax is under serious consideration, as a means of increasing the states reve- nue to at least an approximation to it's expenditures. Should this be done, there will be an inequality of taxation, for the tax will bear heavily upon towns of full valuation assessment, and lightly upon those of nder-valuation assessments. It may safely be assert ed that with a state tax ill effect no more towns will join the full-valuation list. That is, a state tax will put a premium upon disobedience of the law requiring full-valuation assessments

unWise and artificial regulation by the great trusts,'' he attributes the depres- sion, citing the facts that "steel prices were held up in face of depression af- ter the panic which made buyers dis trustful, and that the cotton goods market which is ''more open to free competition" than any, other is '"in bet ter condition in every respect than any other great industry We must in MT. Clews' opinion, come down to lower costs of production and lower costs of living,'' before the readjust- ment process can be completed. But as matter of fact, the great trusts which make prices depend more upon arti- hcIal regulation than upon the open play of competition block the way With regard to the stock market, MT. Clews says:
 Speculation is confined within nar- row limits. Every sharp decline is fol- lowed by more or less buying to cover on occasional good rallies, but the gen. eralStendency appears to be towards 8 still lower range of values. There is no special source of weakness except a general sense that prices have been too high, and that a moderate reces- sion would be both natural and bene- ficial

The Hartford Courant asks what is the difference between the holder of proxies in a corporation who refuses to tell the stockholders behind him how he voted, and the s'representative" of the people who sneaks at a caucus, votes down showdown vote. and then leaves those whom he represents to guess how he used or misused the power with which they entrusted him? The Courant adds:
 Why, to-day, after a lively senator ial contest, in which by the by, the sit- uation was reversed within it's last twenty-four hours, there are members whom each side in that contest claim. Nobody knows how they voted; they must have deceived somebody if each is sure of them. Back of this they have abused the confidence of their constituents. just as any trustee is false who fails of an accounting. Go where you may and you hear the opin- ion that a roll-call vote is the one right method. f

MONDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1909.


 Tn speech, Thursday night, Mayor Lee vented gnawing anger with pull pit and press. In substance, he as- serted that clergymen were practical ly transients and therefore, unac- qtrainted with local history and condi- tiohs, and that the newspapers were wrong in the majority of instances The Farmer might say, as to the latter charge, that "to vouch this is no proof without more certain and more overt tests,'' but this would in effect be charging the mayor with perversion of the facts, from which, out of respect to the mayorial office, we refrain, though reluctantly. But it may not be wholly unparliamentary to suggest to the mayor a rigid abstention from that mental morbidity which, in course of time, may make it necessary to say that the tartness of his face sours ripe grapes

The property of no person shall be taken for public use without just com pensation therefor.-State Constitution.
 This is construed by our esteemed contemporary, the Post, as meaning that the city must pay for so much of the harbor as it takes in front of the docks and inside the government llne.
 Really, the above argument 'ebegs the questi tion'' It assumes that the person in instance owns the property in ques- stion In reality, he does not, and it would be impossible to take from him what he has not It has been found, upon examination of Supreme Court decisions, that the state owns, for pur- poses of navigation, all harbor area between the channel and high-water mark.
 T Of course, it follows that the person or corporation in question cannot col- aect payment for what he or it did not own.

 Mrs. Lawrence Wieler, 1865 Kossuth St., Bridgeport, Conn.,, says: "I can not say enough in favor of Deans s Kidney Pills as they have been of such great benefit to both my husband and myself. For backache and other disorders of the kidneys, this remedy has proven most effective. Often my husband came home from work in the evening, feeling tired and worn out and with a disagreeable aching in his back.

RHEUMATIC FOLKS.
Are You Sure Your Kidneys Are Well?

Many rheumatic attacks are due to
uric acid in the blood. But the duty
of the kidneys is to remove all uric
acid from the blood. It's presence
there shows the kidneys are inactive.
Don't daily with ''uric acid solvents"
You might go on till doomsday with
them. but until you cure the kidneys
you will never get well. Doan's Kidney
Pills not only remove uric acid, but
cure the kidneys and hen all danger
from uric acid is ended. The following
testimony will convince the most skep-
tical Greenwood citizen.
Mrs. M. e. Gentsch, North Winona,
Miss, says: 81 know hat Doan's Kid
ney Pills fulfil all the claims made for
them. | was so severely afflicted with
rheumatism in my back that at times l
could not walk, neither could l remain
in a sitting or reclining position for any
length of time. Knowing that a num-
Der of relatives of mine had suffered
from kidney complaint, I greatly feared
that l was soon to become a victim.
Seeing Doan's Kidney Pills highly rec
commended, it occurred to me that they
might prove of benefit. l procured a
box, began their nse and found them
very effective. A few doses greatly re-
lieved the lameness and pain in my
back and made it possible for me to get
around with ease"
