ounces of Jad Salts from any good

from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia. and has
been used for generations to flush
ciogged kidneys and stimulate them

It IL Only a Suggestion.

The New York senate on Tuesday
adopted a resolution requesting New
York's representation in the u. S.
Senate to vote for the federal suf-
frage amendment. 1t is unnecessary
to suggest it to the Maine Legislature
but we are hoping. Such request
is no insult to any man of honest
convictions. and we are convinced
that Senator Hale, who, with other
distinguished senators. opposes the
suffrage amendment. would welcome
an expression from the people he
represents. That is the size of the man
himself. He desires to do right, as he
sees the right. but to do the bidding
of the people who send him there.
even il his personal convictions are
thus violated,

Editorial Comment
The Budget System.
(Biddeford JournaD

Two years ago the Maine legisla"
ture, on the suggestion OF Governor
Milliken, made it's appropriation
under the budget system. The result
was satisfactory, for the taxpayers
were saved hundreds OF thousands Oh
dollars. every necessary demands Tor
expenditure was satisfied ana inc
states business was put upon a pnsl-
ness like foundation. This year. as set
forth i'll detail in the Augusta dlS-
patch printed in the Journal, there
seems to be n very real danger that
the members Of the legislature may
lose sight OF the very real adVan-
tages of the budget system and re-
vert to the old haphazard and dis
credited plan of making approprla-
tions. How this plan works should be
a matter of common knowledge
among the taxpayers OF the state:
This year the estimates already filed
with the State auditor call for appro-
priationS amounting to about twenty
million dollars, with nobody knows
how many millions later as the ten
dcncy to spend money develops. Two
years ago the budget system was
adopted largely because the country
was on the verge of war and econ
omy was the watchword, Now that
t. war is over there seems to be
feeling that it would be safe to re-
move all restrictions.
AS explained in the dispatch to
which reference is here made, the
estimates for appropriations already
1>of no r;,-I, CT
tate Il State tax of II mills for 1919
and of II mills for 1920. or just about
double the tax for the last two years.
Under such a tax rate Biddefords
State tax would be increased $11G.-
924.33 and Saco's $54,500.GS. while
the increase in the whole of York
county would amount to $500, 1884.
1t is up to the taxpayers to advise
their representatives in the lcgisla-
ture to go slow. The people are stag
gering under heavy burden of war
taxes imposed by the national gov
eminent. in addition to the burden Of
high prices for the necessaries of
life as the result of war conditions.
1t is time of general prosperity, but
no man knows what the future has in
store. Wages are now high, but the
tendency is downward, and no one can
say that we are not approaching an
era of hard times in contrast with
several years of toDnotch prosperity.
In this emergency every demand for
the expenditure of the peoples money
should be closely examined. The
only way to keep state expenditures
within reasonable bounds is to con-
tinue the budget system of Legislative
appropriations. Under that system
there need he no fear that the States
business will be neglected or that any
deserving State institution or interest
will suffer for lack of support.

Bird Law Not Repealed

The American Game Protective
Association, the sportsmen's national
organization, brands as erroneous an
Associated Press dispatch recently
sent out to the effect that the Su-
preme Court at Washington has de-
clared the federal migratory bird law
unconstitutional. The statement of
the association explains something
that should be generally understood:
1.-THE fact is that the So called fed
eral migratory bird law was repealed
on July 3. 1917, when the President
signed the Canadian treaty enabling
act. The new measure which SUI
perseded the old one is a better and
bigger law with exactly the same
object as the former measure. 1t
provides what the former law lacked,
an efficient machinery for it's en-
forcement. and the government Of
this country and Canada are now
squarely united in the protection of
all the birds Of the continent north Of
the Rio Grande.
what happened at Washington
was that the solicitor general asked
to have dismissed his own motion be-
fore the Supreme Court which was to
test the constitutionality of the orig
inal migratory. bird law. 1t was no
use arguing the case, because there
is no longer any Weeks Mclean law.
1.-The federal regulations. therefore.
which absolutely protect in this coun-
try the birds which are valuable to
agriculture and which make open
seasons for the migratory birds which
are shot for sport, are still in. effect
and the federal department of justice
will vigorously prosecute any viola
tons of these regulations"

dency Of the general prosperity OF
agricultural affairs in Maine. and we
believe that the time is rapidly ap-
preaching when an investigation OF
farming conditions in Maine will be
demanded Of the governor and the
Legislature-an investigation made
by a competent. non partisan and dis
interested commission with a view to
discovering some means of staying
this downward tendency and possibly
of moving it upward again. Along
this line we would offer just one sug-
gestion that we believe will startle
every member az the present Legisla-
ture,, and we invite them not only to
consider 1t but to make inquiries on
their own account. in their own class
towns, to verify or refute. 1t is that
in large number of towns. and we
don't know how many more. perhaps
throughout the entire State. the
average age Of the farmers is well
above so years. In some towns where
an inquiry has been made it is found
that the average age is s. years; m
others as low as IS. But for the num-
Der Of towns thus far reported the
general average is sc.
This significant fact, if it is fact
throughout the State, should arouse
US to condition that actually threat
ems disaster. for. as w said above,
this is an agricultural State and il
agriculture slumps, every other indus
try must be affected thereby.
We sincerely hope that the Legis-
lature will follow its decision OF
Tuesday nights caucus and not only
hold itself down to the budget plan
but hold the budget down to the least
possible expenditure.
