EXPLAINS WARNING
OF STATE DEFICIT
Comptroller Edwards Wants
Legislature to Increase Income
and Cut Expenses.

JERSEY CITY. Jan State
Comptroller Edward l. Edwards said
today that the State is going along
paying its bills. and a State tax is
not so imminent as some believe. He
IS Of the opinion that the state NUT
change its course or encounter dan
ger.
IF every contract the state IS re-
sponsible for is carried out and the
money paid, and if my estimate Of re-
ceipts is correct. there will be a de-
ficit at the end of the present fiscal
year of approximately $500, coo. said
Nr Edwards This estimate is liked
without consideration of d supple
mental appropriation bill Baslns
my figures for supplemental appro-
priations on the bill Of last year
which ran to something like Sl,1oo. 600,
I arrive at the conclusion that the de-
ficit will run to about $2,300.O0O.
In a speech before the joint session
of the Legislature at which MI Ed
wards was reelected on Iuesday'
Senator Read, leader Of the Eepubl-
cans. said that there had been
change Of $4,000, 900 in the state funds
under the Democratic regime; that
when the Republicans released their
hold on the State treasury, there had
been a surplus of S2,000.o0O, whlle
now, under thee Democratic control
p deficit Of $1,000, geo existed.
THAT statement is absolutely IN
true" said Mr.. Edwards. 1t is pam
epublicau buncombe, and Mr. Read
knows it. He knows that the trend
of extravaeance in State expenditures
has been growing and gaining year
BY year. He knows that figures VIII
not support his statement When ne
looks at the reports under the Repuo-
licau administration.
con the last page of my report 1
have given an estimated total of the
possible expenditures for the year.
and these bring the deficit up TO the
large figure Mr.. cad called attention
10. The whole purpose Of that estl-
mate was to give the legislators a
warning as to what viii occur if they

vestigation.

The impurities arising in the body
are thrown off in four ways, through
the pores of the skin, the lungs, the
kidneys and bowels.
The skin breathes In air and exudes
decayed matter which is poisonous.
When the pores of the skin become
clogged, then indeed is the beautiful
woman a most painful object to look
at. Pimples and all manner of skin
disorders arise. Colorless skin,
blotches, etc, are due to this great
underlying cause.
Calcium Sulphide is natures great
est blood purifier. 1t is found in just
the desired form and quantity in
Stuart's Calcium Waters. Then there
are other ingredients in these waters
which have an effect on the blood
which acts in natural and speedy
way with the Calcium Sulphide.
The fact that you have skin blem-
ishes is proof positive, that your sys-
tenn is trying to get rid of it's poison.
Pimples, etc, are nothing else than
red, nasty warnings of danger. The
blood Is throwing off so much waste
| matter that it clogs the sickly pores.
Stuarts Calcium Waters will make
| the blood clean. They will throw
open the pores and In only a short
| time you will find the entire system
| free from marks of blood impurity
| The fresh, red, rosy hue of the blood
| flowing freely close to the skin will
give you the complexion you desire.

DECLARES SPEER /
CORRUPT JUDGE
Asserts Jurist Decided Against
Railroad Because of Antag-
onism for Lawyer.

SAVANNAH, Ga. June 29.--Wheu
the congressional inquiry into the
conduct of Federal Judge Emory
Speer was resumed today w. w.
Osborne. q Savannah attorney, was
the first to testify.
Judge Speer is a good lawyer" he
said, but he is a car as a Judge.
He is unfair and is possessed of a
colossal conceit which makes him
crave the spotlight, and IL someone
else happens to get into 1t it greatly
angers him. His court is one in which
there is little justice, and this Is one
reason iit;gants will travel through
the city of Macon, where he lives, to
appear before Federal Judge New
man In Atlanta.
Several years ago" continued the
witness, every member of this bar
signed a petition urging Judge Speer's
appointment to the United States Cir
cult Court of Appeals. Had he OBJ
tanned this appointment 1t would have
taken him to Texas, not as far away
as we would have liked, but far
enough to afford us some relief"
Mr.. Osborne told of a case in which
he represented a client who was
suing for damages for the death OF
her son. The suit was against the
Atlantic Coast Line railroad. The
witness declared that Judge Speer
directed the vase against the railroad
because of his antagonism for Cen
eral p. w. Meldrum, counsel for the
road.
MY client" said the witness, got
a verdict for 49,, 500, but this did not
prevent me from recognizing Judge
Speer's prostitution of justice. Judge
Speer is, In my opinion, judicially cor
rupt. 1t makes no difference whether
you win your case or lose it you cam
not come out of Judge Speer's court
feeling that 1t is a place of Justice"

OAKLEY MAY FACE
 TRIAL ON ANOTHER CASE AT THIS TERM
Defendants Attorneys as Anxious as Governor That Other Cases
 Be Tried
By l.. s. BETTY

Montgomery, March 16.-(Special) )
 James G. Oakley, acquitted last Satur day night of the charge of embezzling
 sg207 of convict department funds, may be brought to trial on another case of embezzlement and grand larceny during the present term of the Montgomery city court.
 It was announced today that Oakley's S attorneys are as anxious as the states 8 lawyers to have the former head of ths convict department tried on the other
 cases against him. There is little prob ability, however that he will be brought to trial on the other indictments before the latter part of the month, or the first of next.
 All of the cases against Oakley are set for this term. and both the state and the defense will very likely be ready to go to trial when they are called It seems certain that Oakley will not seek a postponement of his other cases
 Capt. Frank s. White of Birming- ham, leading counsel for the state in the prosecution of Oakley, declared be- fore leaving Montgomery for south Alabama, where he goes to campaign in the interest of his candidacy for United States senator for the short term. that he was particularly anxious to prose- cute Oakley on the other cases against him at the earliest possible time A sim liar declaration was made today by Solicitor William T. Seibels of Mont gomery, who aided in the prosecution of Oakley. Attorney General Robert (. Brickell is also desirous of an early trial
 Those attorneys announced their in- tention of doubling their efforts to se- cure Oallley's conviction when he is brought to trial on the other cases, and they expressed the belief that they would be able to do so. At any rate. they declare they will use their great est endeavors to accomplish that end.
 Theodore Lacy today repeated his statement of last Saturday night in re- gard to Oakley's acquittal. The former chief clerk of the convict department seems to be in high spirits as a result of the jurys verdict in Oakley's case, and he expressed himself as being thankful that MT. Oakley came clear of the ugly charges against him."
