FINDS A CURE FOR PELLAGRA
All Skin Eruption Gone, Doctors Now
Convinced Mrs. Vaughn Is
Entirely Well

Mrs. G. H. Vaughn, Millville, Ark,
writes-"There is nothing [ ever
could do but what l can do it now.
There is no sign Of skin eruption
One of our local doctors told me that
my cure was one of the grandest
things that ever happened-not only
for me, but for the whole cOmmu-
nifty, to let them know that there is
cure for pellagra.
"All the doctors that waited on
me are convinced that your remedy
is real cure"
There's the true word from a cured
patient. If you have Pellagra or
know of anyone who suffers from
Pellagra it is your duty to consult
the resOurceful Baughn, who has
fought and conquered the dreadful
malady right in the heart of the Pei
lagra belt in Alabama.
The symptoms-hands red like
sunburn, skin peeling off; sore
mouth, the lips, throat and tongue a
flaming red with much mucous and
choking; indigestion and nausea;
either diarrhoea or constipation.
There is hope. Get Baughn's Big
Free Book on Pellagra, and learn
about the remedy for Pellagra that
has at last been found. Address
American Compromising Co., Box
1850, Jasper, Ala, remembering
money is refunded in any case where
the remedy fails to cure. Advt.

YES; LET THE TRUSTS TAKE
i CHARGE OF EVERYTHING
q AND RUN EVERYTHING.

: Dear Sir: Reading many columns
daily on the congested cotton ship
ments at the various ports awaiting
bottoms IN which to be exported,
(which was given as the main reason
for the slow sales and low prices
prevalent in the cotton market last
fall, as we'll as the reason for the
immediate passage Of a ship subsidy;
a recent news item stating that
United States warships were handling
cargoes of sisaI for making binder
Irvine from Yucatan for the Harvester
Arust, causes me to believe that this
would be solution of the congested
port conditions, as well as a good rev.
enue producer for the Government,
TO use our warships to transport car
goes to Europe. There would not be
any question as to Lloyds or any
other of the insurance companies I'M
derWriting the risk, as they would
not be called on to do this, as the
government does it's own insurance
business.
Having been taught that Democ-
racy first, last and eternal was the
only kind of politics, I would like to
have this plank put in the next plat
form: "That where any little Trust
is in danger of loss from strikes,
epidemics, war, plague or other
causes which they can not control,
that the President, his Cabinet, or
any other Government official, be en-
powered to place at their disposal,
any resource of the Government, such
as the Army, for quieting labor dis
orders (for example, Roosevelt, N. J.,
incident), or the protection of Trusts
Interests abroad (for example, the
Tampico, Vera Cruz Oil Industry,
and the use of warships to carry the
Trusts products when other vesse7s
are not available, as per the example
referred to above.
Now, don't you believe that these
principles which the Democrats have
carried out in this administration
should be written in their next plat
form, so that the people may know
what the candidates are standing
for?
Seriously, I would like to inquire
what authority the War Department
had for carrying cargo from Yucca
tan?
Yours truly,
s. Tenn. JAMES O'CONNOR.

A GOOD FRIEND OF THE JEFFS
CRISES TO REMARK"

Dear Sir: You will find enclosed
$3.50 for JeffersOnian, and names,
with poStoffice address on separate

Mr.. Watson, it gives me great
pleasure to send you this club. [
have been with you since the days
of Populism and can truthfully say,
there has never been known such
changes as have taken place in this
section since last Fall.
The laboring people have begun to
see as never before.
The farmers now know the reason
they had to take cents for their
cotton last Fall, also the cause Of so
much distress among the laboring
people.
Mr.. Watson, sometimes T can
hardly believe you have ever realized
the great good you are doing the
people. I am obliged to say, you are
doing the greatest work of your life.
While I am nearing my siXtieth
birthday, and write with a feeble
hand, one of my greatest desires is
to live to see you rewarded by sit
ting as President of the United
States. But sometimes l am made
to shudder, for fear you will go the
way Of Black. You were warned
last week by a good brother to be
on your guard, and 1 want to say, be
on double guard. We don't know
how soon the plans may be formu-
lated to accomplish that end, and
perhaps they have already been
done, for 1 fel satisfied that there
are men today as rulers of our coun-
try that would gladly give thousands
of dollars to know that Thomas e.
Watson was no more.
Look out, Uncle Reuben, specu-
lators are running cotton up just be-
lore planting time, and if you don't
mind, next Fall you will hear some

out by the streams which flow
through them; also that mountains
throughout the earth have been
made first by an upheaval of a por-
by this process of washing out huge
trenches or valleys across the up
heaved area. Concerning Yampa and
Green rivers,th question arises, Did
they exist before the mountain area
was upheayed. and was the upheaval
so gradual that they were able TO
wash their valleys deeper as fast as
the upheaval progressed, or did the
upheaval take place long before
these rivers were formed. and were
the mountains buried under sand
and silt before these streams acquir-
ed their present courses?
The report referred to sets forth
much evidence gathered by the au-
thor and others which has a bearing
on these questions, and from this
evidence II apears that the mountain
range long antedates the river val
leys, and that it was completely
buried under great deposits of sand
and silt before Yampa river came in
to existence The evidence tends to
show that when first formed these
streams flowed across a flat high
plain under which were buried the
mountains of hard rock. In the
course of geologic ages the streams
have washed away the sand and silt
from the surrounding country, leav-
ing the mountains of hard rock stand
ing as they are today. Because of the
unyielding nature of the rocks i'm
the mountains. the valleys are there
narrow and canyon-like. whereas
outside the mountains where the
materials underlying the surface
were more easily washed. the valleys
are broad and the streams have
slight fall II therefore appears that
the mountains i'm this region are far
older than the streams and valleys
which cut through them.

Lexington, KY. March 26.-Pro-
visions for a cut-out of the 1916
crop of tobacco are contained in a
tentative pledge, to be submitted to
the planter of the state. considered
here Thursday by the directors Of the
Tobacco Growers association i'm an
all-day session behind closed doors,
in their offies in the Phoenix hotel
The pledge will be definitely de-
termined upon at second meeting

Equalizing Matters.

In the testimony brought out in
the trial of Dom M. Roberts, Demo
cratic mayor of Terre Haute. Ind,
who is charged with election frauds,
the following was brought out:
"One of the fellows who were
busy repeating in Precinct A. Sixth
ward. was one-legged colored man.
who voted eight times in the pre-
cinct; one time he came with a peg
leg; another time he wore a cork
leg; the third time without anything
strapped to his leg; the fourth time.
an iron extension leg; another time
with one crutch; one time for the
purpose of deception he wore glass
es."
Nothing unfair about this. Roberts
was merely endeavoring to equalize
the Democratic treatment of the ne
gro. In view of the fact that not one
negro in eight is allowed to vote
south of the Ohio, the Terre Haute
apostle of Jeffersonian democracy
doubtless believed that II was only
fair for one negro to vote eight
times in the North.-National Re-
publican.

Tax The Average Farmer Pays To
bad Roads.

If any farmer will take few min
utes he will realize that he himself
is paying each year an enormous
tax or toll to bad roads; and II is a
tax which not only does not yield
any return at all, but does himself
and his property a positive harm.
Suppose we take a man who pro-
perry is assessed at 81 geo. Under the
proposed bond issue il the maximum
rate he is charged-35 cents on the
500 worth of property-his road
tax for the year will be $3.50.
A man who owns $1,000 worth
of properly usually has a team of
two horses or mules. Say this man
lives five miles from market and
makes one trip a week during the
year. He usually makes more than
this. In going to the market over the
present system of roads he can only
haul one fourth of the amount which
he can haul over a good road. 1t
takes him from one to three. hours
longer to go and return from market
than il would over a good road; so
that one each trip we will say that
he loses three hours for himself and
team in going to market and carries
only half load. Thus he would
have to make two trips in order
to get the amount to market which
he would carry over good road
with one trip, and on the two trips
he would lose six hours. Now any
man and team is worth at least 80
cents an hour. In some places they
are now charging 40 cents an hour
Then six hours lost at 80 cents an
hour is $3.50, which each farmer
practically loses in each trip when
he markets his his produce. Averag-
ing his trips drought the mud dur
ing the year at 20 would make his
tax to bad roads $4,000, which is
about what he average farmer pay
ing taxes on 1000 worth of pro-
perty loses during the year, in actual
time on himself and hins team and,
loss of time in not being able to
carry a full load, to say nothing of
the wear and tear ON his team and
harness and vehicle, the lack of op-
portunity OF attending church when
desired, the impossibility of his
children reaching school regularly,
and the lack of opportunity for car
rying on the social intercourse which
is necessary to the life of every hui
man being.
Another tax he pays to bad roads
is that in case of severe illness it is
practically impossible to obtain a
doctor in any reasonable time, so
that his family is constantly run
ming risk of losing their lives in
case OF emergency because of the
physical impossibility of getting a
physician there within a reasonable
time over the poor roads. All these
latter phrases cannot be reckoned in
dollars and cents.-Joseph II. Pratt,

they completely transact high noun

streams rise near the crest and flow

States-cloth eual in quality and
style and durabiiity 10 any fabric
imported from abroad. Second, the
/ emphatic conclusion that American
producers of wooden textiles cannot
hope to compete with the cheaper
labor Of Europe to any considerable
extent in the markets of the world
On these points President Wood,
. who knows, If any man knows, the
truth of the matter, says:
There is enough and probably
more than enough, wooden machinery
In this country to supply all the wants
of the American people. There is no
necessity for the importation of any
wooden goods. or late years Ameri-
can mills have made wonderful i'm
provement in the fine goods manu-
facture, and competent authority
maitains that so far as popular
priced fabrics are concerned Ameri-
can cloths are superior in quality
and durability to similar fabrics
from Europa very gratifying sit
uation. There has been no gain or
advantage to the American people
as whole because of increased i'm
portation of European wooden goods,
made possible by the new Tariff be-
cause of cheaper labor costs abroad;
but these increased importations
have been a serious injury to all
American wool manufacturers.
After a determined effort to sell
our fabrics in the open markets of
the world we have been forced to
the conclusion that as a general pro-
with the low wage labor of Europe.
Certain few special fabrics can be
sold abroad at times, but there is
not the volume of business available
to us to encourage the belief that
we can become factor in the ex-
port of cloth to European countries.
Our efforts must, therefore, be di-
rected to securing to ourselves the
market of the United States, the
best and greatest market in exis-
tence.
1t will be seen that in respect of
wooden fabrics this country is indus
trially Independent of the rest of
the world There is no need that a
single dollars worth of foreign cloth
be imported. Under adequate protec-
tion not a dollars worth would be
imported. American labor would
supply all American requirements.
The public would do its own work.
Then, as Abraham Lincoln put it.,
I'VE should have both the goods and
the money" What sensible and pa
triotic citizen would deny the great
desirability of such consumma-
ton?
Practical common sense, business
sense, characterizes the judgement of
President Wood on the subject Of
export trade. Industrial producers
had best devote their attention and
their talents to the recapture of the
great domestic market of 100000
900 consumers and stop chasing the
ignus fatuus of foreign trade from
which they are shut out by higher
wages and greater production cost.
A hundred million Americans at
home are, as consumers, worth more
than half billion of foreigners in
any other part of the world. DO
nestle trade is true king; foreign
trade is a braggart."
