UNKINDEST CUT OF ALL
Rurte's Slash of Agriculture Measures
so characterized by Palermo
Standard.


Governor Burke could not stretch his
available cash over the entire list OF
petitions in bills for appropriations
and is being severely criticised for the
manner In which he culled out the
most Objectionable and vetoed the
same. The agriculturists seem to have
gotten the big knife about as hard as
any and feel keenly the slight, for who
have been more loyal to our governor
than the farmers regardless of party
and they do not appreciate this "moBt
nnlxindest cut OF ALL"
