The State
Governments.

The first half of January is per-
iod when most of the states this year
are inaugurating new administra-
tions. If but fraction Of the wis
dom that is being handed out in
gubernatorial messages and legislat-
i've addresses could be realized in
law and social practice, our states
would make long step toward
Utopia.
Yet it is generally admitted that
as a whole the state governments
are a weak part OF the American
system. In many Of the legislatures
there are large purchasable elements.
In others the members have so lit
tie strength Of character or individ-
uality that they are swayed by the
first breath of threat. To them
their reelection is the one vital
thing. They will support anything
that helps toward that end.
Yet the people who criticise the
legislatures most severely are often
the ones who won't do any public
work themselves. Able business and
professional men who spend their
whole lives in dollar chasing and
have no time for civic work, are
not in a position to criticise.
The situation would be helped II
our citizens took keener interest
in the work of their legislators. The
public should watch how their repre-
sentatives vote. Where they line VI
on the side contrary to public in
terest and social morality, they
should hear from the home district
A few letters from indignant con
stituents have a mighty stimulating
effect on weak backbones.
The extent of public interest in
legislative work is pretty well meas
ured by the space given by the news
papers to legislative doings. Many
of the editors say the public takes
so little interest in its Legislature
that it does not pay to give much
space to it. That indicates a lach
OF interest on the part OF our citi
zenship. The doings Of the legisla
ture should be followed with sucf
attention that the newspaper meI
would find 1t the best feature in theil
journals. Under that kind of scru
tiny. a lot Of dark lantern worl
would become impossible.

The Demands of

The first domestic servants union

KIDNEY REMEDY
 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

There is no medicine which we handle that gives such good results as your Swamp-Root. Many of our customers have informed us at different times that they have derived great benefit from its use.
 There was one case in particular which attracted a great deal of attention in this neighborhood early last Spring, as the gentlemans life was despaired of and two doctors treating him for liver and kidney trouble were unable to give him any re- lief. Finally a specialist from St. Louis was called in but failed to do him any good. I at last induced him to try your Swamp-Root and after taking it for three months, he was attending to his business as usual and is now entirely well. This case has been the means of creating an increased demand for your Swamp Root with us.
 Very truly yours,
