ADVANCE AGENT OF BADNESS

OMAHA FIGHTS DANDRUFF
The Most Active Campaign Nebraska Has
Seen In the Cause Of More aair
and Better Attention TO
Scalp Needs.

From the beginning of time womanly
beauty has been increased by a well-kept
head OF hair. Woman as a rule pays more
attention to her hair and scalp than man
does. She keeps her hair cleaner. Man is
careless. He gives his head an occasional
shampoo. Lack OF attention gives dandruff
a chance and dandruff is the %forerunner Of
aldness
One Of the greatest American experts in
hair culture and hair preservation is DR..
Mott. and the formula for DR.. Motifs Hair
Tonic was so valuable that The Hessig-
Ellis Drug Co. succeeded in gaining poses
sion OF 1t, so that they could put II on the
market. As a simple hair dressing, IL is
unexcelled. As an aseptic, it will make
all notwithstanding microbes quit bust
ness. AS a tonic, It will strengthen the
scalp and eradicate all traces of disease.
Ninety per cent of all badness is suscep-
tibls TO successful treatment and TO that
20 per cent. DIR. Motifs Hair Tonic is worth
a mint Of money. This tonic is calculated
TO promote the growth OF thickness and
length OF hair. 1t will help you keep the
hair you now have and will surely correct
any tendency OF the hair to crack or split.
For abnormally greasy heads, there is
nothing quite as sweetening and purifying
as DR.. Motifs Hair Tonic. Get II at Myers
Dillon DRUG store. Ask about this.

No one likes sallow. muddy complexion.
Many who are so afflicted do not realize
that the daily consumption OF coffee is
likely the cause.
Coffee contains a drug-caffeine-which
SO irritates the nerves of the stomach that
food is not properly digested and that
causes bad blood.
1t weakens, by its after effects, the heart
and lungs so that the full amount of life
giving oxygen is not taken into the lungs
and that is another cause of bad blood. II

and nervousness also.

The Anti-Treat Law.

In the early part of my administrator
l was requested by numerous petitions to
enforce the anti-treat law. To such I re-
piled that l stood ready to do all in my
power to enforce that law, but that nothing
could be done unless those who had knowl-
edge of Its violation would themselves take
the initiative in securing the evidence,
presenting it to the prosecuting attorney
and standing behind the complaints.
This particular section of the Slocumb
law has become obsolete and is a dead
letter. II 1t could be enforced it would be
one of the best possible measures to pre-
vent intemperance that could be proposed.
Therefore, l recommend that you amend
this particular section. known as Section
81 OF the Compiled Statutes, so that the
authorities who grant the saloon licenses
will be compelled to revoke a license when
ever any person drinks liquor in a saloon
that he has not himself paid for.

dividusls. as will In the long run tend to
help elevate and perpetuate the human
race. Careless and rl-advised marriages
have had a great deal TO do in increasing
the dependent classes end in producing I'M
told misery. I therefore for
your earnest consideration a change in our
marriage laws so that Il viii be impossible

containing a statement that their health
Is good and that they are capable OF pro-
ducing healthy offspring. Those who are
n burden upon society should not be per
mltted 10 reproduce themselves.
In order to prevent the confirmed Grim
insl and the incurable insane from produc-
ing offspring I suggest that you give care
tul consideration to the necessity OF pass
ing a law providing for the sterilization OF
that class OF people.
Regulation of Liquor Traffic,
In my opinion the time has come for ad-
vanced legislation to better regulate and
control the liquor traffic. At the present
time there is no political party which pub
licly will stand pat on the S1ocumb law.
The demands Of the hour call for legislation
to control and regulate this traffic in ac-
cordance with the present conditions and
needs of the state. This question should
not be permitted to drag along until legis-
lation is enacted that will satisfy only the
extremists. In that event the legislation
will probably be that which a minority
rather than a majority approve. Expert
ence in the enforcement OF the LIQUOR laws
demonstrates that II is difficult to enforce
these laws in any community where public
sentiment il against such action.
While 1 have been governor a great many
applications have come to me from con-
victs in the penitentiary for executive Gle
mency in some form or other. have been
impressed by the fact that many who came
before me did not appear to be criminals
In most instances when l asked them the
question how they happened to get into the
penitentiary the reply was that their down
fall was caused through the use OF intoxi-
eating liquors or through associations
formed in the environment Of the saloon.
The saloon as il now exists is indefensible.
II breaks our laws, corrupts our politics.
degrades our men and fills our prisons and
asylums.
This question must be met in a practical
way. After careful consideration have
come to the conclusion that the proper
thing TO do at this time is to pass a state
wide prohibition act. making provision so
that any municipality may suspend such an
act by a three-fifths vote, and in such in
stances to have liquor dispensed as may
be provided by law. This will put the bur
den upon those who desire to make a profit
out OF the saloon business, rather than upon
the people of the state who desire the sa-
looms abolished. l therefore recommend
that you pass such an act and that you
also submit to the people of this state a
amendment embodying such
provisions.

is assessed uniformly throughout the state.
The question of taxation is not IN easy
one. But anyone familiar with the history
OF the assessment OF property OF this state
during the last ten years knows that the
property at the present time In by far more
uniformly assessed than Il was under the
old revenue act.
It is true that It is difficult for the Board
OF Equalization to. do justice in all in
stances, because no one can have knowl-
edge Of the actual valus of all the prop
erty in all parts Of the state.
The Board OF Equalization is composed
Of officers elected by the people of the
state. There need be no fear that such a
board will deliberately and Intentionally
do an injustice to the taxpayers in any
portion of the state.
Powers OF state Board.
The board should not be deprived OF the
right to lower any class OF property or all
classes OF property returned for a county.
Neither should the board be deprived of
the right to raise all the property or any
class of property Of a county when. com
pared with other counties, such property
has been u~nder-valued.
When the revenue law was first en-
acted the board could raise or lower all
Of the property within a county, but Il
did not have the right to raise or lower
any particular class. Experience demon
strated that 1t was necessary to change
the law, and experience has also demon
strated that the change was a wise one.
The law in this respect should be left
alone. There is no necessity for any
change in the law in this particular.
So far as the assessment of land is con-
cerned. 1t is a matter of common knowl-
edge that the per cent OF increase in the
assessment of land values in 1908, with the
exception of some parts OF the sand hill
district. increased from the east to the
west. II is also a matter of common knowl-
edge that the lands in the eastern part
are assessed at more nearly their actual
value than they are in the western part
of the state. There should be no COM
plant that such is the case because the
people in the western part of the state are
stu in that period of development where
many sacrifices must necessarily be made,
a good many of which are for the welfare
of the whole state.

OBJECTS TO FENCE
ON MUNICIPAL LOT
SUIT is BROUGHT TO ENJ0IN
CITY OFFICIALS
Temporary Injunction Is Granted and
Hearing for Permanent One
Will Be Heard on
May 20

RIVERSIDE, May 15.-The city of
Riverside, Building Inspector Mathers
and j. l.. Taylor, owner of the Star
theater in this city, were made de-
PENDANTS today in an action brought
by w. G. Fraser, who seeks to enjoin
the defendants from building a ten
foot fence about the municipal lot on
the corner of Orange and Seventh
streets. This lot is some day to be
the site of a city hall, but until funds
are available the mayor was empow-
cred by the city council to lease it to
a theater owner for $40 month for an
open-air theater.
Fraser claims that this lease is IL
legal from the fact that the fence to
be erected about the lot is to be ten
fee high, while a city ordinance pro-
vides that no fence shall be erected
in the city higher than six feet He
also alleges that the airdome would
be a fire menace and that tenants in
the Victoria block owned by him adj
joining the site would be driven from
the building by the noise of continu-
Gus evening performances.
Judge Densmore has granted tenn
porary injunction against the erection
of the fence and the matter will be
heard on Fraser's application for a
permanent injunction May 26.

WIFE REACHES FOR HAT,
FALLS INTO THE OCEAN
Husbands Headgear Is Blown Into
the Water and Tragedy Nearly
Results

LONG BEACH, May 15.-Grabbing
for her husbands hat, which sudden
gust of widn blew off, nearly cost Mrs.
c. e. Marley, Pasadena, bride of SIX
weeks, her life tonight. She lost her
balance and fell into the sea, where the
water depth is about twenty-five feet.
DR.. c. e. Marley, accompanied by
Mrs. Marley, came down to the beach
to pass Sunday. After dinner tonight
they went for a walk. 1t was about
$3.50 o'clock when they were strolling
along the outer wharf and few people
were near them. A sudden gust of
wind took Dr. Markeys hat off. He
tried to grab it and his wife reached
for it as it sailed past her. In doing
so she went off the wharf into the
water. DR.. Marley gave the alarm by
loud cries for help.
Charles Baettge, wharfinger, was
nearby and answered the calk for help.
He threw O line to Mrs. Marley, which
she seized and held to until Baettge
could get a boat. She was then rescued.
She was suffering only from fright, and
sustained no injury in falling.
