PREFERENTIAL VOTE
is WASTE OF TIME
LAWSON.
NOn-Partisan Primary Legal,
but Not Practical, Says Cor
pOratiOn Counsel

what As the sense In asking the
people 10 vote on a proposition mat
is clearly illegal?" asked Corporation
Counsel lawson. Thursday morning
discussing the proposed prelerehtia'
vote proposition. for which petlt!ois
are being circulated by Charles .
Beadle.
The proposed amendment proYd'
ing for preferential vote is illegal
because IL provides for cumulative
voting. and cumulative voting has
been held Illegal by the supreme
court. continued Mr.. Lawson. 10
proceed with such an amendment 10
the charter is a waste OF time.
Mr.. Lawson was asked n non
partisan primary is legal, under the
primary act OF 1913, which says that
the act need not apply TO cities nav
ing the commission form OF govern
ment. or cities which elect their ON
GERS by non-partisan ballot.
II think that such a primary would
be legal. but would Il be practical
Mr.. lawson replied l have not heard
one suggested that would really work.
How would you limit the number OF
candidates? How would you decide
which ones are nominated? II Is a
question. not OF what IS legal, but oil
what is practical.
The preferential system, as out
lined in the proposed amendment, Is
too clumsy and cumbersome, too hard
to understand 10 be OF any use to
the people. What the people want is
simpler system not more com
pick one And anyway. the supreme
court has decided that cumulative
voting is unconstitutional, so why
waste any more time on the matter

# KIDNEYS AND
) BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to flush Kidneys and
neutralize irritating
acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness re-
suit from uric acid, says a noted au-
thority The kidneys filter this acid
from the blood and pass it on to the
bladder, where it often remains to
irritate and inflame, causing a burn
ing, scalding sensation, or setting UP
an irritation at the neck of the blad-
der, obliging you to seek relief two
or three times during the night. The
sufferer is in constant dread, the water
passes sometimes with a scalding sem
sation and is very profuse; again,
there is difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
it, because they can't control urina-
tion. While 1t Is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist
and take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu-
tralize the acids In the urine so it no
longer is source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which
then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless.
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia.
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant. effer-
vescent lithia-water drink. which
quickly relieves bladder trouble.-Ad
Vertisement.

and bounty. God is like other faith
ers in this. The tremendous truth is
written large over this lesson, that the
gratitude of man is desired by God
and pleasant to Him.
Yet the way Jesus rose to the
higher significance of every occasion
is shown by His comment on the
grateful leper He praised Him for
his gratitude, but more for his faith.
"A grateful mind is great mind
wrote old William Seeker; mind of
faith Is still greater. The highest eX-
ercise of any human faculty is the
ability to take God at His word, even
when His word seems against reason.
The lepers had no token that the dis
ease which had smitten them beyond
earthly cure and which had made
them an outcast from their fellows,
could be healed by Jesus, yet they
were wise enough to do the seem
ingly foolish thing, by accepting the
plan of Christ; in that acceptance they
proved it. Then, as ever, faith was
the victory that overcame he world.
