After
La Grippe

Il had suffered several weeks
with LaGrippe. Had pains in
my head and eyes. 1t felt as
though there was heavy weight
on the top of my head, until it
seemed that my brain would
burst. / was so nervous that
/ could not rest or sleep. When
/ dozed off l would awake with
a sudden jerking of my whole
body. DIR. Miles Nervine, Heart
Remedy and Nerve and Liver
Pills cured me. A number of
friends have since realized the
same benefits"
MRS. ALVIN II. LOCKS,
Seabrook, N. II.
The after effects of LaGrippe
are often more serious than the
disease, as it leaves the system
in a weakened condition that
invites more serious troubles,
such as pneumonia, etc.

SENATOR BATON
| LAYS THE BLAME
ON COUNTY BOARDS OF EQUAL
lZATION.
Therefore He Declares There Is No
Need For Remedial Legis-
lation.
RESOLUTION is ADOPTED P? ? L?

Frankfort, KY. Jan. 19.-Senator
Eaton, of Paducah, has found the
way to clear the debt of the state
without issuing a bond for $1,000
600. He wants the property of the
state assessed at something like its
real value and then he says he
thinks there will be plenty of money
raised to pay of the Indebtedness of
the state. Senator Eaton has no
fears of expressing his opinion in
the senate regardless of where his
words fall, in this matter, however.
he quotes the report of the board
of equalization. 1t is likely that his
suggestion will be adopted and that
there will be no bond issue.
It was hinted today by one of the
members of the legislature that
within the next few days, a legal
proceeding will be started in the cir
cult court to mandamus Auditor
James to pay on with interest bear
ing warrants, and then this matter
win be settled. If the court holds
that Auditor James must pay on
with interest bearing warrants. then
the banks will wait until the money
is collected through the increased as
.sessment TO pay of the debt.
Senator Eaton made known his
ideas of raising money to be used
in paying off the states indebtedness
In introducing a resolution in the
senate yesterday. 1t follows:
Whereas, 1t has been called to the
attention of the general assembly by
his excellency. the governor of Ken
lucky. that the finances of the state
are so depleted that the current ex-
penses of the state cannot be met;
that there exists a large deficit in
the treasury; that the revenues pro-
vided by law and based on the pres
ent assessed valuation of property
are insufficient to defray the accru-
ing obligations of the state, and
Whereas, 1t is crowded by section
l172 Of the constitution that call
property, not exempt from taxation
by the constitution, shall be assess
ed for taxation at its fair cash
value"
And it is further provided by sec
ton 4274 Kentucky statutes (19O9)
that the board of equalization shall
fix the percentage of assessed value
of real property at its fair cash
value. and all counties whose aver
age lists of real property fall below
such value shall be raised to the
same;" and by section 4275 it is
further provided that said board is
authorized In like manner TO equal
ize the assessed valuation of person
al property.
Equalization Boards Report.
The the state board of equaliza-
ton for the year 1909 in its report
to the governor says in part: "Inas-
much as no county in the state has
listed either its real or personal
property at its fair cash valuation
as the law provides there was not a
single county in the state in which
the assessed valuation as returned
by the assessor was reduced, and
the board of equalization has en-
deavored to raise the counties show
ing lower valuation sufficiently to
equal those whose assessed valuation
is more nearly in conirmaty to the
law"
Be 1t therefore resolved by the
general assembly of the common
wealth of Kentucky:
That there exists no Immediate
