WHY SALVES FAIL
TO Cure ECZEMA
They Clog the Pores-ony Liquid
Can Reach the inner Skin.

Since the old-fashioned theory of
curing eczema through the blood has
been given up by scientists. many diff
ferent salves have been tried for skin
diseases. But it has been found that
these salves only clog the pores AMI
can not penetrate to the inner skin
below the epidermis where the ecze-
ma germs are lodged.
Thistle quality of penetrating
probably explains the tremendous sue
cess of the only standard liquid ecZc.
ma cure, oil of wintergreen as COM
pounded in D. d. D. Prescription. At
ter ten years of cure after cure. the
worlds leading skin specialists have
accepted this as the true eczema
cure.
We ourselves do not hesitate to
recommend D, d. ID. Prescription at

those who have never tried the pre-
scription we arranged with the d. D..
d. Laboratories of Chicago for a spe.
cial large trial bottle at 25 cents or

prospective employer.
IT'S the same way, boys, now" he
continued. Employers will inquire
INTO your acquaintances especially
your pastor and teacher, so you can
see it is not only proper but profit

They never do their work thoroughly
and their employers must do it over

that Col H. NJ. Street, speaker of the
lower house of the Legislature. has
given his endorsement to the plan,
and win use all his influence to secure
its adoption at the approaching ses-
sion.
1t is argued that if six per cent
money is exempted from taxation it
will mean a great influx of foreign
capital for the development of Missis-
sippi, and the advocates of the plan
state that at the proper time they will
exhibit documentary evidence from
great financial syndicates in the East
and North OF their willingness TO
make extensive investments in the
state.
Governor Noel has as yet given no
intimation of his position on the ques-
ton, but the Governors advocacy IS
not absolutely necessary in order to
permit consideration of the matter, as
1t can be considered as a feature of
the general revenue bill. However.
the advocates of the exemption move
ment are anxious to secure the Gov
ernor's support. in order to assure his
signature to tie bill in event it is

Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1909-01-17

The supreme court on Saturday de-
cided the Montraille county case, hold
ing the county to have been duly created
at the last election and quashing the
alternative writ of certiorari. The
point involved was whether a majority
of all the electors of the county must
vote in favor Of the proposition or
whether a majority of the electors vot-
ing on the particular proposition is
enough. The court held with the latter
contention and decided that the county
is legally created.
The decision was of much interest to
the Ward county contingent at the state
capitol and was heard with enthusiasm
by those members interested in the Gre
alton of the new county. The syllabus
of the opinion which was written by
Judge Spalding and in which all of the
judges concur, is as follows:
!. Section 1853 of the constitution
reads: "All changes in the boundaries
of organized counties, before taking eff
feet, shall be submitted to the electors
of the county or counties to be affected
thereby at a general election and be
adopted by majority Of all the legal
votes cast i'll such county at such cleo
ton"
(a) That the word, electors" as
used in said section, means all persons
possessing the qualifications as to resi-
dence, age and citizenship prescribed
by section 12l of the constitution, as
necessary to entitle them to vote.
(b) "Shall be submitted to the cleo
TORS" means that all persons who are
qualified to vote in the given county or
counties shall, in a legal manner, be
given an opportunity to vote on the
question of a change in the boundaries.
(c) That vote" is the registra-
ton in accordance with law, of the

preference or choice of all elector on a
given subject.
Cd That ''votes cast" are the
totals of the separate votes or express
sions of voters preference for or
against change in boundaries.
,. A voter, as distinguished from an
elector. is all elector who actually votes.
3. A ballot, as distinguished from a
vote, is the sheet of paper on which
the voter expresses his choice of can
didates, or for or against a PROPOSE
ton, or both.
L. A majority of the votes cast upon
a question submitted to a vote, if in the
affirmative, carries it unless the legisla-
tive will to the contrary is clearly ex-
pressed in the constitution or the law.
S. In a strict legal sense, although
the vote on a change in county boun-
daries is cast at a general election, it is
the holding of separate election, but
held in connection with the general cleo
ton for convenience, to save expense
and because of the numerous subjects
then voted upon, more complete ex-
preston of the preferences of the cleo
tors is obtained. 81. =,
6. Legislative construction, when fol-
lowed by years of harmonious subse-
quent legislation, is entitled to great
weight in determining the construction
of constitutional provisions.
I. The elector who does not partici-
pate in an election, acquiesces in the.
result of the votes cast by those who do
participate, and to hold that the Ian
guage of section 168 of the constitution
requires more than half as many AFFIRM
alive votes to be cast in favor of a
change in boundaries as are cast on any
other subject at the same election,
would be to give as much effect to the
act of an elector who did not vote on
such change as to that of one who
voted in the negative, and render the
