DEPUTY BILL VETOED BE-
CAUSE UNCONSTITUTIONAL

Basing his action on an opinion OF
the attorney general that the act abol-
ishing district deputy superintendents
of public instruction is unconstitution
al, Governor Boyle late Monday We
toed the bill.
The attorney general held that the
section giving the county commits
sion,rs authority to appoint county
superintendent would conflict with
the constitutional provision which
says that all county officials shall BE-
elected
The bill abolishing deputy superin
tendents was vigorously opposed dur
ing the closing hours of the session
the fight being carried into the debate
over the general appropriation bill
when after considerable talk the ap,
preparations for the deputies were cut
out of tht measure.
The bill got through the Assembly
by close vote, and only five oppo-
nents in the Senate. The vote on cut
ting from the general appropriation
bill the appropriations for the deput,
superintendents was somewht close
in the Senate, carrying by a majorit,
of one.
Members of the Lyon County As
sembly delegation. who introduced tn
original bill abolishing the deputies
stated after the session had CLOSED
that in case the bill should be vetoed
and an attempt was made to pay TIL
salaries of the deputies out of the gen
eral fund the matter would be takei
into the courts.

Congress convenes in special ses-
sion next Monday. The press reports
indicate that the paciicists intend te
send million kilograms to the ex
ecutive and to Congress. 1t is very
small percentage of the people OF
America, and the handling OF such
messages, if the purpose is carried
out will not retard the government
but will be great nuisance. If ev.
cry person in the country who silently
supports the government were to send
a message it would take the entire
force at the capital to handle the mes

woudld be attended to for a few days

GOVERNMENT SEEDS.

1t is often said when the spring dis
tribution of garden seeds by the gov
ernment occurs, that the seeds fur
nished by the Department of Agri-
culture are not first class. This is re-
iuted by the experience of Edward
Patterson, a Carson City boy, who
made an intelligent test of 800 seeds
of five varieties of vegetables, and
found the seeds 100 per cent perfect.
This is published because many peo-
pie have been informed and believe
that the seeds sent out by the govern
ment through members of Congress
are of inferior quality and the GUS
tom has been established for political
purposes and influence alone. Grad
ually the real purpose of the distribu-
ton is dawning upon the public gem
orally. The purpose is solely to en-
courage the cultivation of food plants
and vegetables. .

DRINK A GLASS
OF REAL HOT WATER
BEFORE BREAKFAST.
Says we will both look and feel
clean, sweet and fresh
and avoid illness.

Sanitary science has Of late made
rapid strides with results that are Of
untold blessing to humanity. The lat
est application Of it's untiring research
is the recommendation that it is as
necessary to attend to internal SANTA
ton of the drainage system of the hui
man body as it is to the drains of the
house.
Those Of us who ar accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise,
splitting headache, stuffy fro,a cold,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom-
ach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a.
daisy by opening tie sluices Of T. e sys-
tenn each morning and flushing out tho
whole Of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
we'll, should, each morning before
breakfast, drink a glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the stom-
ach, liver and bowels the previous
days indigestible waste, sour bile and
poisonous toxins; thus cleansing,
sweetening and purifying the entire
food into the stomach. The action of
hot water and limestone phosphate on
an empty stomach is wonderfully in
MIGRATING. It cleans out all the sour
lamentations, gases, waste and acidity
and gives one a splendid appetite for
breakfast. While you are enjoying
your breakfast the phosphated hot
water is quietly extracting large vol
ume of water from the blood and get
ting ready for thorough flushing Of
all the inside organs.
The millions of people who are both
cred with constipation, bilious spells,
others who have sallow skins, blood
disorders and sickly compilations are
urged to get quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
This will cost very little, but is suff1-
Gent to make anyone pronounced
crank on the subject of internal san.

The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog
and thus the waste is retained in the
blood to poison the entire system.

four ounces of Jad Salts; take a

days your kidneys will act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with

to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys,
to neutralize the acids in urine so it Ia
