To Give Facts About institutions.

Governor Philip said he is pre-
pairing a special message to the legis-
lature, which will be submitted early
next week, refuting some of the ideas
put forth in the report of the legisla-
tive committee that investigated the
charitable end penal institutions Of
the state
'The institutions belong to the peo-
nle and 1 intend to give them the true
information about Them" said Cover
nor Philip.
Although the house judiciary com
mittee recommended for death the
Conner bill exempting from execution
Liberty bonds and Thrift stamps to the
amount of $500, the measure was en-
crossed by a vote of AZ to 81, after the
sum exempted was reduced 20 5000.
By a vote of GA to 10, the assembly
advanced the Olson bill providing for
the tuberculin testing of herds the
milk from which is delivered from
cheese factory or creamery. The bill
provides that, upon application of the
customers for this test, the state shall
pay one-half of the cost. All custom
ers, however, must join in the applica
ton. The sum of $4,000 is provided
for carrying out the provisions of the
measure.

State Drys Ready for Battle.

Wilconsin dry forces have several
cards to play in their fight for enacting
the committee of state affair bill for
enforcement of prohibition after July
l, when the wartime measure goes in
to effect and after January /, 1929,
when the national dry amendment be-
comes effective.
The dry forces contend there is
distinct lobby in the legislature work.
ing night and day, tooth and nail, TO
obtain enactment of bills fav0ring per-
sons who have supported the liquor
traffic and to obstruct all legislation in
tended to carry out the spirit OF the
prohibition amendment.
Evidence of this lobby, contend the
dry forces, was the vote, to 5, in fa-
vOr of killing the committee bill, which
they maintain Is the only safe bill
thus far presented, next to the Bennett
bill, This vote Is merely the first step
iii the effort to pass the Burke sub
stitute bill which the lobby claims is
really a dry bill, as it calls for a pro-
hibition commissioner who shall do
nothing but authorize permits for sale
of mildly intoxicating liquors, and to
advance the Metcalfe bill, which would
authorize traffic in per cent liquor.
This per cent is defined by weight at
60 degrees Fahrenheit and the drys
maintain such beer measured by alco-
hol weight and at per cent would
have a greater kick than possessed by
Kentucky mule.
The dry forces will watch the roll
calls on all these bills closely and they
maintain these will clearly show an
alignment, not against reasonable reg
ulation or drastic regulation, but for
and against liquor.
The dry forces realize they have
big fight ahead. First they must obtain
passage of the committee bill over the
committee report in the house. Then
they must pass the bill in senate COM
mittee and on the senate floor. Fur
tbermOre at each stage at engrossment
and third reading, as well as at pas
sage, they must fight their way along.
The controversy promises to be in
teresting and acrimonious and even
may result in prolonging the session
far beyond the time when all other
business can be completed.

Judging from reports from druggists

the public, there is one preparation en 1ss

these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is

its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, IN
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
iected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 1t is on sale
