MEN WE'RE ALREADY CURRUPT

Jackson, Miss, April 1.-The star
witness today in the Senatorial irv.s
'gation into the bribery scandal was
the mysterious woman Mrs. c. J.
Neil, who swears that she arranged
.he meeting between Senator Bilbo
ard Dulaney. When asked her busi-
ness, she replied:
bookkeeping, handling real estate
ana selling Mississippi Senator's" She
described how she introduced Bilbo
to Dulaney; how the latter told her
TO feel out "the weak legislators' and
see if they could ~be reached"
She swore that she was to be paid
in proportion to the crop" and said
she naturally desired n Gig crop"
Mrs. Neil told how sha went to
Ne" Orleans to confer witt those in
terested, how she was foil owed by de-
tettives, and declared she believed
her life was in danger She was
c"oss-eXamined during the entire af
tel noon. The cross examination con.
sisted of questions tending to attack
her credibility as witness She de
MID with much heat all the charges.
ShA said she did not fnov il was q
crime to bribe an official. and declar-
ed she did not believe che did wrong.
for the men she sought to bribe were
already corrupt An attempt to get
her to name some other Senator's was
voted down by the Senate, on the
ground that the investigation was fnto
the Bilbo charges only.

HOW TO CURE RHEUMATISM.
1t Is an Internal Disease and Re-
quires an Internal Remedy.

The cause of rheumatism and kim
dred diseases is an excess Of uric acid
In the blood. To cure this terrible dis
ease this acid must be expelled and
the system so regulated that no more
acid will be formed in excessive uuan-
titles. rheumatism Is an internal
ulsease and requires an internal rem
edy. Rubbing with Oils and Lini-
ments will not cure, affords only tenn
porary relief at best, causes you TO
delay the proper treatment, and al
lows the malady to get a firmer hold
on you. Liniments may ease the pain.
but they will no more cure Rheuma-
tism than paint will change the fibre
OF rotten wood.
Science has at last discovered a
perfect and complete cure, which is
called "Rheumacide." Tested in hun
dreds OF cases, 1T has effected the
most marvellous cures; we believe it
VIII cure you. Rheumacide gets at
the joints from the inside" sweeps
the polsons out of the system, tones
up the stomach regulates the liver
ana Kidneys and makes you we'll all
over. Rheumacidc Strikes the roots
OF the disease and removes it's cause" :"

glsts ana dealers generally at soc and

beg to say that l have handled
and checked individually something
over two thousand vouchers, compar-
ing each with check issued for it's
payment. and it gives me pleasure
to report, that I discovered only one
error, which occurred on Jan. 5th,
1910, on voucher No. 1929 which was
issued to Booth Live Stock Co., which
was for $3.50 and the check was
drawn for $90.6O making an error of
$l.OO, which your clerk promptly COL
lected.. and replaced to account of the
fund from which it was erroneously
taken thus relieving the county of any
loss by this error. On Jan. Is, 1910
there were 46 checks issued from this
Office (but not yet presented to the
treasurer for payment at the time Of
this audiD aggregating s6S2.91,
which when added to above balance
Qess $1.O0 as above stated and since
corrected) making balances as shown
by County Treasurer's books of $751;
615.75.
/ did not deem it necessary to give
a detailed statement of the above
funds, as l note by your quarterly re-
ports this has been correctly done
and published in the county papers.
L Will however, in supplement to
this, give you the actual amounts
collected and disbursed under each
head If you desire me to. In conclu-
sion / will say, that under the new
system of bookkeeping inaugurated a
snort while before your incumbency,
the work has been greatly simplified
ana is kept up at all times in a, neat
and very satisfactory manner, thus
lessening the work of an audit. and
Keeping the affairs of your Office in
SUch shape as to be readily under
stood by any one seeking information.
without the necessity of a laborious
research through the various trans
actions.
Very respectfully,
(Signed) r. L. WRIGHT.
