INCREASES WEIGHT QUICKLY
Simple Way For The Thin And Pale
To Be Plump And Rosy.

Samose can hardly be termed a med
icine; it is in reality flesh forming
food. Taken before or after meals, it
mingles with the food you eat, enables
it to assimilate and readily digest, so
as to make rich blood and pleasing
plumpness.
After Samose has been used a week
or ten days a noticeable gain In weight
is seen. The sallow complexion will
become rosy, the sunken cheeks will
have a ruddy glow, the eyes will be
bright, the breath sweet and the step
elastic.
The Century Drug Store customers
have told them of the remarkable re-
suits following the use of Samose, the
great flesh forming food, and they are
so thoroughly convinced of its relia-
bility that they are selling 1t under
their personal guarantee to refund the
money If it does not do all that is
claimed for it. You who are thin and
in poor health cannot afford to let an
other day pass without getting SOC
box of Samose on those terms.

Commission Form
OF Government is the
Purest Democracy

will be seen before the campaign is
over:
Omaha, Neb.. March 30.-The Ne
braska supreme court has decided
that, from a constitutional standpoint,
the commission syste p does not trans
gress the rights of any citizen, and
despite attacks on the form, the state
will not interfere with the election
and installation of the seven commits
sioners who will be selected next
month.
The attack on the constitutionality
of the commission form was said to
have been made in the interests of
coterie of office-holders who have
scant hope of reelection under the
new system. In fact, many of these
officers will be abolished altogether
and the places will be filed by APP
po'ntment by the commissioners.
The new law provides for a non
partisan commission. SO carefully is
that point guarded that when the
names of the candidates are placed on
tie Lallots or voting machines no par
ty designation will accompany any
name.
There are only seven commission
crs authorized by the new law, and
there are eighty-two applicants for
these seven offices. It IS believed that
when the entries are all IN there will
b. at least $50 candidates for the sew
en- offices. Among these 1870 candi- !
4 ties is practically every man who |
has served in the city council for the
last decade, many of whom the people |
have cast aside.

CFrom Meridian STAR


The petition asking that an cleo
ton be called to determine whether
or not Meridian will adopt a commits
sion form of government were CRATE
fully received and literally signed by
the Meridian puDnc Monday. The pc
titions are still in circulation and only
one OF two more days is necessary to
secure the required number of sigma
lures.
AS is the case N every city where
a move has been inaugurated to rid
the city of inefficient government, the
ring, ard the ring supporters, are
raising a howl and are fioundering
III ound in their muddy ponds seeking
some loophole through which they
can defeat, or circumvent, the wishes
of the people to govern themselves.
he ring" does not want the peo-
pie to have say in their own govern
ment. They desire to pursue the
same course that has already placed
Meridian en- the verge Of bankruptcy
with 100000 floating Indebtedness.
Meridian is face TO face with pros
poets OF discounting pay warrants be-
fore the end of the present year.
This fact Is not generally realized
ard means that in order for city en-
ployes to get their money they must
go to the bank and take less money
than the face value of the warrant, be-
cause the city treasury does not con
tain enough money to meet expenses
and because the borrowing power of
the city has been exhausted and the
taxes received already spent.
Meridian is not the first city that
has had to confront such methods
San Francisco came into the limelght
through such methods, which resulted
in Abraham Reuf being sent to Jail
and a wholesale grating institution
exposed. Pittsburg, Chicago, Kansas
City, Birmingham, New Orleans and
other cities have been through the
same thing, when the people tried to
shake off the ward boss and assert
heir God-given right to govern them
selves.
The commission form OF govern
nent is the purest democracy ever
ievised by human mind. The people
rave the government in their own
lands at all times.
The commissioners can do nothing
without the sanction of the people,
Ind if a commissioner contemplated
my law or act, it can be taken out
If his hands Immediately through the
initiative and referendum.

G.. D. P. SENATORS
OPPOSED To FORD
[Rrom a stan Correspondent

TRENTON. March 26.-That the OPP
position to the ratification of the APP
pointment of Henry Jones Ford as
commissioner of banking and insurance
by the Senate has not been quashed
was learned last night following a
secret session of the Republican seria-
tors. When Governor Wilson an
nounced his choice for the position,
about ten days ago, there were rumors
that the Senate would not ratify 1t. 1t
was claimed that Ford had been a
member of a Baltimore concern that
went bankrupt. This. was later proved
false by Mr.. Ford.
With this proof it was thought that
all opposition was dispelled, but it is
said today that Senator Harry Leav-
lit, of Mercer. again voiced objections.
The session lasted for some time and
the question of Ford's appointment &C.
cupied the attention of the Senators
the greater part of the evening.
While the session was in private 1t
was learned that a number of the
Republican members who first favored
the appointment of the Governor nave
come to an opposite decision and Ford's
appointment seems more doubtful than
at any time.

ARE SUNG
FOR BILLS DEATH

There was much ~jubilation about the
City Hall today over the failure of
House bill 525 to pass the Senate. The
bill provided for a mandatory appropri :
alton for the Board Of Works for street
work. Mayor Jacob Haussling, City
Counsel James R. Nugent. and mem
bers of the Common Council, both the
majority and minority. have fought the
measure from the tart. Several days
ago a written protest signed by the
legislative committee of the city was
forwarded to Trenton. Despite the
stand of Senator Austen Colgate In the
upper branch of the Legislature the bill
died a quick death by a vote of 7 to 4.
The Essex representative Immediately
changed his vote that he bill might be
reconsidered. The measure, if passed,
would give the Board of Works a man
datory appropriation.
Senator Fielder led the fight against
the bill. 1.-THE bill provides for a bad
financial policy" he said, "and is legis-
lation in the wrong direction"
Senator Read. Republican, startled
his colleagues when he declared that
the bill was really a party measure,
and it was intended to settle a fight
between the Democratic Council and
the Republican Board of Works. 1t
was for this reason that Senator Read
voted against the bill.
Chief Engineer Morris r. Sherrerd
was in the lobby working hard for the
passage of the bill and was given a
setback when the result was made
known.
