DON'T SUFFER
WITH WITH NEURALGIA
Musterole Gives Delicious Comfort

When those sharp pains go shooting
through your head. when your skull
seems as if it would split, just rub a
little Musterole on the temples and
neck. 1t draws out the inflammation,
soothes away the pain, usually giving
quick relief.
Musterole is a clean, white ONT
ment, made with oil of mustard.
Better than mustard plaster and
does not blister.
Many doctors and nurses frankly
recommend Musterole for sore throat,
bronchitis, Group, stiff neck, asthma,
neuralgia, congestion, pleurisy, rheu-
matism, lumbago, pains and aches OF
the back or joints, sprains, sore mus
Giles, bruises, chilblains, frosted feet
colds Of the chest (it often prevents
pneumonia). 1t is always dependable.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. Feb. 3S.-W. II, Will
liams, chief clerk in the revenue de-
partment of the state auditors office,
who furnished the first facts to the re-
trenchment and reform committee
calling attention to the need of a work
ing balance in the state treasury to
prevent a deficit at times. suggests
that all the state taxes be paid in the
spring. AS it is now half are paid in
the spring and half in the fall This
would bring the state taxes all in by
the time the appropriation period has
ended
He points out that this could be done
by amending section 1413 of the reve-
nue. laws of the state. which requires
that all road taxes be paid lin the
spring, by requiring also that the state
taxes be paid in the spring. This
would of course make the spring pay
nient Of taxes somewhat heavier than
the fall payment but it is pointed out
that the state taxes are a compare
lively small per cent of the total taxes
and would therefore not increase the
spring payment so materially.
New Plan Proposed.
There has been more or less talk of
introducing a, bill in the legislature to
provide that the receipts for state
taxes be made out on separate slips by
the state treasurer. This would en-
able the taxpayer to know just eN-
actly how much of his tax was state
tax. The objections to this bill is that
it would necessitate considerable more
work on the part Of the county treas
urer and the county auditor. Such
measure may be introduced. however,
before the session ends.

New Commission Necessary.
The Legislature has created a new
comm ssion. the state banking commits
sion. and the position as state bank
y
per year, must be filled by appointment
by the governor The governor will
also need 20 appoint two district judges
in the new district in Hum boldt ana

A number Of men have been sus-
gested as possible successors 10 Judge
Demer. including the following: Judge

ator c. 9. Saunders, of Council! Bluffs;
Con gresham Towner. Of Corning:
Judge S. F.. Prouty. of Des Moines.
former congressman from the seventh
district, and Judge Lawrence DeGraff,
Of Des Moines.
There has been some gossip 10 the
effect that the governor might appoint
Judge Theophilus. Of Davenport, who
polled a big vote IN the election fer the
supreme judgeship last fall. Theopht-
lus was Salingers choice for the SUI
preme bench and as IS we'll known, the
Ssl!ngers are close to the governor.
However Theophilus IS a democrat
and il Is not thought at all probable
that the governor will select a Gemo-
crat.
Might Have to Name Two.
Should the bill introduced in the
senate Of the Iowa legislature by Sena-
tor kimbail 10 provide for eight judges
Of the supreme court instead Of seven,
be passed, Governor Harding would
have an opportunity to name still an
other member Of the supreme court.
Senator Kimban said in talking Of this
bill that the plan was to eventually
have ten members on the supreme
court. He declared the work is so
heavy as TO require that many Judges.
As the law requires one democrat on
the board Of control the governor must
name a democrat TO succeed the late
Col. McConlogue.

however, regarding the state taxes
and providing of sufficient revenue
to avoid deficit, the state officials
and many of the legislators point out
that one thing is certain and that is
that the levy must be increased. This
is the only way out of the present
situation. The last two legislatures
have failed to provide working bal
ance and this has meant that there are
times when the state is short of funds,
To overcome this shortage and create
a small working balance the legisla
ture will undoubtedly provide for an
increase in taxes

and the more or less mysterious ref
to the confidential debate in

give the impression that the gravity
of the situation Is o~verplayed by GER
tain radical papers. The outstanding
facts as%certainable are these:
Sensational Speech.
Matthias Erzberger, a prominent
representative Of the clerical center,
made a sensational speech in the Sc
cret session of the committee, attack
ing the admiralty and Pan-Germans
as the great obstacles to peace and
advocating peace without a~nnexations
or indemnities and the introduction OF
parliamentarism. Herr ErZberger,
did not speak in behalf of his party
which would have meant that the i'm
perial chancellor, DR.. Won Bethmanr
Hollweg faced a hostile majority in
the parliament. DR.. Peter SPAIN
President Of the clerical party, de.
clared the party had taken no de.
cision on the subjects raised in Herr
Er~zberger's speech.

Of electricity when the committee ad'

was able to say that the edge had beer
taken from the crisis.
Today, alone will show whether tn
radical and socialist forces, assisted b,
Herr Erzberger, are able to reinforc
their attacks sufficiently to score an,
material success, or whether the crisis
will LOST it's momentum and die ~ou
without results.
