Prepare For The Hot Wave

The hot sun is doubly dangerous
if there issa mass Of undigested food
in the stomach. Foley's Cathartic
Tablets give prompt and sure relief.
They act gently but do their work
thoroughly. They cleanse the
bowels, sWeeten the stomach and
benefit the liver. For indigestion,

independent governments as regards
national questions. Prohibition has
become a natiopal question; it must
be settled by the federal government;
to do this Congress has enacted an
amendment to the constitution known
as the Sheppard prohibition amend
ment, and passed it up to the states
for ratification and on the action of
the majority rests the issue. There
is no question of the minority ruling
the majority. The Local Option
league sees through the horoscope of
today dimly.

Those persons and papers who in
sinuate that Frank E. Howe is not
patriotic or loyal are either hirelings
or immensely ignorant of Vermont
and Vermonters. Frank E. Howe
is intensely loyal, every inch a pat
riot, and gives unstintingly of his
time and effort for a bigger and bet
ter Vermont. He is the father of
the Vermont primary law and some
of his opponents are so unkind as to
intimate that it's benefits are doubt
full. We can see some things about
the primary that possibly make con-
ditions no better than the caucus or
convention, but there is one great
and important thing to its credit.
The poor man and the rich man come
before the voters on an equal footing
except, possibly, what the rich man
may spend in legitimate publicity.
There can be no packing the caucus
or convention, every man comes to
the polls without oversight, direction
or compulsion and casts his ballot for
the one he thinks is best fitted for
office. And that is what Frank E.
Howe stands for in all phases of
public acknowledgment, independ-
ent action. That's the belief he has
carried out in all his public acts, and
that's what has won the firm admir-
alton of Vermonters. His son is
following the colors, an intensely
loyal, patriotic lad, who won recog-
milton in his work enlisting Vermont
boys and like his father putting
every ounce Of effort into the great
task of winning the war. Because
of the good work he has done for
Vermont; his loyalty and patriotism;
because he knows the needs of the
state; is in close touch with, and one
of the people; because he seeks this
office for service to the state,
not to round out his career" for
these reasons and as an acknowledge
ment of the years of faithful public
service for Vermont, we believe
Frank E. Howe should be elected
governor.

bringing honor to the state.

Gov. Horace f. Graham has made
a statement to the people OF Yer
mont regarding his acts as auditor,
rumors Of which have been going
for some time. Gov, Graham made
a clean acknowledgement Of his
wrong doings and has thereby done
the right thing, bat this does not
set matters right. He asks the
people to reserve judgment until the
special auditor makes his report,
but there is side to the question
that is without reservation. A sys-
tenn that would enable a state aud
itor to draw his salary in advance for
IA years until it reached shortage
of $4,000 should be changed. There
was no concealment on the part OF
Gov. Graham and the shortage had
been known for some time. Hall
the sum has been paid back and the
remainder will be. The state Will
lose nothing in dollars and cents, but
it will lose something Of far more
value. Comment is unnecessary but
the people of Vermont are hurt.

The Vermont Local Option league
is the original Rip van Wrinkle Of
politics. Their great argument for
putting by action on the prohibitory
constitutional amendment is, that it
is an "attack on self-government"
or the doctrine of state rights.
Why, bless these ardent old champ
ions of Vermont independence,
wake up. You'll find automatics in
place of hintlocks; you'll find those
little independent state sovereignties
moulded into one grand united re-
public mailing such conditions as
ull best serve its people through
h. diro.. action Of The states. This
question Of state rights was settled
more than q half century ago, and
Vermont took an important part in
hat action. States are not little

BANKERS VOTE ON
new INTEREST RATE
North Dakota Financial Men Make
Ready for Enforcement of Guar
antys Law.

Fargo, N. D., Dec. 27.-The North
Dakota Bankers association is taking
a vote among it's members as to the
final fixing Of the rate of interest on
deposits, time certificates more espec-
tally.
The new guaranty of deposits law
will go into force soon after Jan. l.
Many banks are now paying 6 per
cent or more a year. The new law
provides that not over S per cent can
be paid on deposits of any kind unless
special permission is given to the
guaranty fund commission, and that,
must be extended to all the banks in
when this permission is granted, it
the county in which the bank applying
for permission to pay higher rate is
located, but in no event must permits
sion be given to pay more than 6 per
cent a year.
The vote as it is received at the Of
citation in Fargo will be tabulated, and
report showing the result will be
submitted to the guaranty fund COM
mission to guide that body in issuing
it's final instructions in connection
with putting the law into effect. The
vote will be tabulated by counties,
giving the votes for each rate of in
terest, without giving the names of
the banks voting.
Secretary W. c. MacFadden of the
association in his instructions to the
bankers says: Banks should keep
in mind the fact that many important
sources of revenue, such as commits
sions on real estate, loans, commits
sions on bonds and insurance, are
either in danger Of beinp taken away
altogether or reduced and earnings
proportionately decreased"

A UNIQUE RECORD

Grateful testimony for Doan's Kid

itself convincing evidence of merit.
Confirmed testimony forms still
stronger evidence. Years ago, cit

is now confirmed--the proof more
convincing. Cases of this kind are
plentiful in the work of Doan's Kid
ney Pills-the record is unique.
