DANGEROUS cALoMEL
GOING OUT OF USE

A safe, more reliable remedy has
taken its place in the drug store and
in the home. A few years ago
men, women and children took cal.
omel for a sluggish liver and for
constipation and many do so still.
They take considerable risk when
they do so, for calomel is a dan
gerous drug. Your family doctor will
be the first to tell you this if he
discovers you dosing yourself with
calomel.
But the drug trade has found a
safe, pleasant remedy to take the
place of calomel in Dodsons' Liver
Tone.
The City Drug Store sells Dod-
sons Liver Tone in hundreds of cases
of biliousness and liver trouble where
calomel used to be taken.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a vege-
table liver tonic that is absolutely
harmless for children and grown
people. 1t sells for so cents a bottle
and is guaranteed to be entirely
satisfactory by the druggists who
sell it, and they will refund your
money with a smile if Dodson's does
not give as quick relief as caiomel
without any of calomels' bad effects.

PRAISES STATE
TAX SYSTEM
FILES REPORT WITH GOV. CRUCE
AS DELEGATE TO NATIONAL
TAX ASSOCIATION WHICH MET
AT DENVER.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Sept. "a
Governor Cruce has received report
from S. r. Bledsoe of this city, who
was appointed by the governor to re-
present Oklahoma at the meeting of
the National Tax Association in Den
yer in July. Incidentally this is the
first written report the governor has
ever received from any of the hun
dreds of delegates to hundreds of con-
ventions since he has been in Of
flee.
Mr.. Bledsoe reported that the con-
yention seemed to be very represen-
tative body, made up of tax and fiscal
officers and college and university pro
fessors who seemed to have an idea
OF doing useful service for the states
and nation. He noted the situation as
reported from the several states and
commented on the Oklahoma taxing
system as compared with the others
1T gives me pleasure to say that
Oklahoma is well in advance of many
OF the leading states in its fiscal sys-
TEN, particularly in the methods of
ascertaining the amount of taxes to be
raised, the apportionment of such
taxes and the limitation upon levies
and public expenditures. With a prop
er codifcation of our existing laws
and some slight changes we would
have better system of taxation than
can be found in more than one-fourth
of the states of the Union
What we do not have that has been
most efficient in bringing the assess
ment of property to full value and in
discovering omitted property, is a tax
commissioner. Such commissions have
been very effectual in accomplishing
a much desired result. In some states
this innovation has been unpopular,
as was the effort of the board of
in Oklahoma to bring all
property to its fair cash value and the
laws creating some of the commissions
have been repealed"

ALL ENTITLED

A SYMPATHETIC CONGRESS HAS
STOOD BY THE PRESIDENT AND

PROGRAM OF ACHIEVEMENT

Washington, d. c., Sept. 25.-In the
preliminary democratic councils, held
at Washington, the lines of the fall
campaign have been clearly drawn
The paramount issue, according to the
prevailing gossip, is simply this:
Shall President Wilson and the
democratic majorities of the house
and senate who have stood by him
in putting over" constructive pro-
gressive legislation, receive a vote of
confidence from the American cleo
torate?
In many particulars, the situation is
critical. AS everybody realizes, the
President, with congress assisting will.
ingly, has met the financial and com.
mercial crisis brought upon this coun-
try by the European war wisely and
efficiently. But the war is to continue
indefinitely. Some war problems are
in course of solution and others are
certain to arise. The United States oc-
cupies an international situation that
requires delicate handling. The case
very forcibly revives the old injunc-
tion against swapping horses while
crossing a stream.
Much more besides the war situa-
tion is to be considered in the same
light The new banking system pro-
vided by the federal reserve act is on
the eve of taking effect, and the test
of its success must be determined
in the two years now to come. The fed
eral trade commission created by the
trade commission bill must be organ
lied and put to work.
Since the extra tariff session met
a year ago last April, congress has
done wonders by way of providing the
country with reform legislation which
has been demanded for years. But
much remains to be done. The crush
of business has necessitated the post

ponement of rural credits legislation
and may result in deferring action in
the senate upon the Rayburn securi-
ties bill. The bills in the conserva-
ton program have passed the house,
but are yet to pass the senate. Next
winters session ends by law March
4. Therefore it is possible that these
and other important matters may have
to be turned over to the incoming
congress.
In considering the political applica-
tiOn of argument against changing
horses, there arises naturally the
question of what constitutes the horse
upon which so much progress has been
made. 1t is not a horse really; it is
a team-the president and a sympa
thetic congress.
The presidents effective leadership
is conceded and universally lauded
But the presidents principle of action
has been that of seeking common
counsel before acting In this man
ner he has been able to secure the co
operation pf congress to a degree
without example in modern political
history. The presidents measures and
policies have succeeded because the
democratic majorities of the house
and senate have stood by him through
hot weather and cold, through praise
and blame, no matter whether the go
ing was heavy or easy 1t follows that
the democratic congressman and sen
ators who Joined in the common coun-
sell and who have stood by the pres-
dent are entitled to share the benefits
of vote of confidence"
Advices reaching Washington from
all parts of the country show that sub
stantially this line of reasoning is
running in the minds of the public
at large. Hence the democratic out
look is considered excellent
The house republicans have sud-
denly put the soft pedal upon attacks
on the sugar schedule of the Under
wood Tariff After having inserted
sugar speech after sugar speech in
the Congressional Record, with view
to harping insistently upon the theme
in the fall election, the high-protec-
tionists have suddenly concluded to |
look elsewhere for campaign thunder. |
This change of front is due to the
very obvious fact that the effect of the
European war upon the sugar market
an excellent defense of the
action of the democrats in providing
'or a gradual reduction of sugar tar
ifs until free sugar is reached.
The reductions in effect prior to the
outbreak of the war had reduced the
'etail price of sugar from to cents
| pound to and 5 cents pound. I'm
Ter the present war conditions, house
wives are paying s, and 10 cents
pound. The price has fiuctuated
but the existing average
With little prospect of early relief-is
bout 8 cents a pound.
The situation amply corroborates
he democratic argument that high
ugar tariffs hugely increase the price
f sugar to the consumers of the Unit
d States, and constitute a heavy trib-
tie laid upon the general public for
he benefit of very few people. The
Ugh tariff creates an artificial condi-
ion strongly resembling that created
y the European war. The congress
nd the government are powerless in
he face of the conditions caused by
he war; but they can-and have in the
Underwood Act-prevent such a situ-
ton existing during normal times.

New York, Sept. 25.-Now that the
name of James +. Sullivan is a men,
ory and the world of athletics is Just
beginning to recover from the shock
of his death, those acquainted with
the men who have worked hardest
for the success of the Amateur Ath-
letic Union, are wondering what will
be the future of the organization in
other hands. OF course, there are
many to be recommended as Mr.. Sui
livan's successor, but it is not paying
perfunctory tribute to the late sec
retary-treasurer of the A. A. u, to
say that his place will be exceedingly
hard to fill, for aside from his interest
in the organization, he was the friend
of every athlete who desired to be
associated with clean, wholesome
sport. Indeed, he possessed, as few
men do, the art of being a thorough
mixer with all classes without ever
sacrificing their respect.

fact remains that he is regarded as a
