STOPS SCALP ITCH
Dandruff and Every Form OF Scalp
Disease Cured Quick by Zemo.


Disease Cured Quick by Zemo.
It is simply wonderful how Zemo
goes after dandruff. You rub little
Of it in with tips Of the fingers. 1t
gets right down into the glands, slim
ulates them, stops the itch, and makes
the head fine. No, it isn't sticky!
Zemo is a fine, clear, vanishing liquid.
You don't have to even wash your
hands after using Zemo. And what
wonder II is for eczema, rash, pimples
and all skin Affections. A 25-cent trial
bottle at York Drug is guaranteed to
stop any skin irritation.
Zemo Is prepared by e. w. Rose Med
icine Co., st. Louis, Mo-, and Is regu-
larly sold by druggists at 81 bottle
But TO prove what 1t will do at trihing
expense, Zemo is now put up in 25
cent trial bottles.

The Judicial Recalls

Discussing the doctrines of judi
cial recalls, the Knoxville journal
and Tribune asks some pertinent
questions concerning them. Says
that newspaper:
Every lawyer and every man who
has taken the. trouble to read the
laws passed by legislatures, and
who knows anything about the
meaning of language, has had oc-
casIon to often remark about the
bungling manner in which the laws
have been written, leaving them diff
ficult to understand and open; to
a double construction.
Is that an argument in favor OF
abandonig representative govern
menr ana the adoption Of the inttia
tive, or the enactment of laws by
the direct vote of the people? In
fact, is it not as conclusive an argu-
ment against such proposition as
could possibly be used?
If hundred men, with nothing
more to do in the space of two or
three months, but to write, present,
refer to committees, and to discuss
in open house such statutes as may
be proposed, do not make them
clear, then how can It be expected
that the whole people, busy every
day with their farms, their mills,
their mines, their factories, their
stores, their clients and their pa
tients will be able to write and pass
upon at the ballot box, such laws
as this or that man may assume the
state needs?
And let the thoughtful and intel
ligent realer stop and consider for
a single moment, If no longer, the
utter absurdity of leaving 1T to the
masses of the voters to say when 4
court has decided law to be in con.
flict with the constitution whether
the court has decided right or
wrong.

Railway Mages ana Ea,nlngs.

=. - =
There were substantial increases
in the wages of railroad employees
during the fiscal year. 1871. Re-
ports filed with the interstate Com
merce Commission show that the to-
tai compensation to the employees
of railways over 500 miles long was
$1i0e5s, s14s The. total wage
cost to the railways for the year was
greater than S42 ,s6sIS22 than it
would have been at the rates OF pay
in effect during 1910, and greater
by sss, 2s7 ,s7s than it would have
been at the rates in effect during
1909
notwithstanding an increase Of
2s10S in the miles of railway oper-
ated, there we're fewer employees on
the payroles June 80, 1911, than on
June 80, 1910, by S,OS7, yet the
total compensation paid to en-
ployees during 1911 was greater
than that paid during 1910 by
$40, s76j216. This is greater than
the increase of the gross earning
of the railways by $22y5s5, 121
The net revenues of the railways,
which are what are left after pay
ing operating expenses, fell OF by
$4O;sSs 1893 during this same per-
iod in which compensation In
creased nearly fifty million dollars.
These figures are summarized
from Bulletin, No. %, Of he Bureau
of Railway Economies, which are
based on official reports made by the
railways to the Interstate Commerce
Commission and which exhibit in
detail comparison Of the aggregate
Compensation to different classes Of
employees, the number Of employees
of different classes, and thg relation
to railway traffic for the fiscal years
1909, 1910 and '1911.
The summary Of revenues and ex-
penses of the steam railways over
fifty miles in length for the month
of December, Just issued by the bu-
reau, shows that for the calendar
year 1911 the total operating rev.
enues were less than for the calen-
dar year 1910 by rs2716gS. $50, and
the net revenues less by $22,2S6.-

Henry s. chubb, Republican ma
tional committeeman from FLORIDA,
refutes a purely manufacturer story
reflecting upon the character OF
southern delegates instructhed for
Taft. His statement follows: \
Reading the columns of the
press of the country which is sup
porting Mr.. Roosevelt's candidacy
for denomination, the idea which it
seems they desre most to convey is
that the southern delegates to the
next. national Republican conven-
ton are not of an eqsally high
standard with those from the north
ern states. Speaking for the state
of Florida desire to say that the
list of delegates which Will vote for
Mr.. Taft in that convention is rep
of the very highest type
of BUSINESS interests in the state,
Four of the delegates are leaders
