MACHINIST HAS
x AN INTERESTING
STORY TO TELL
Local Man Gladly Describes
How Trutona Quickly Over
came Troubles of Two
Years Standing.

"Trutona has relieved me Of the
suffering I've endured for the past
two years, and I do not hesitate in
recommending the medicine" was the
grateful statement made few days
ago by Norton B. Davis, a well known
local machinist who lives at 449 South
Fourteenth street.
For the past two years I've had
kidney and bladder trouble" Mr.. Da-
Wis continued. II suffered from severe
pains in my hips and back almost
continually. My bladder bothered me
a great deal and at times could
hardly do my work. almost had
to give UP.
But l can go about my work now
without any OF the former annoyances
l experienced, since taking Trutona-
certainly feel a lot stronger after
taking this medicine. The former
pains in my hips and back do not
bother me now and I'm not annoyed
with the bladder arrangement any
more. It's because Of this relief that
do not hesitate in recommending
Trutona."
Trutona has been the recipient Of
glowing praise from thousands Of peo-
pie because OF its remarkably effic-
lent work in overcoming catarrhal af-
fections Of the stomach. liver and
bowels, nervousness, sleeplessness,
loss of appetite and the like. Trutona
is equally as efficient in overcoming
after effects of pneumonia, influenza,
| hard colds and the like.
Trutona is now being introduced
and explained in Richmond at This

THE CITY ELECTION RESULT.

Mondays city election resulted in a
clean sweep for the republican ticket.
1t was an expression Of the people
rels tive to the conditions of our city
government and must be interpreted
as disappearing the stewardship dur
ing the past year and calling for a
businesslike conduct of our city af-
fairs.
The election does not change the po-
htical control of the court of common
council, which remains democratic by
a majority of one. the mayor having
the deciding vote, but it more evenly
divides the party representation and if
attention is to be given to the wishes
of the people different methods should
be adopted in conducting city affairs.
The voters have refused to give the
administration a vote of confidence
and there can be no question but what
the time has come to give the city the
best in the way of government that
can be had.
That is the responsibility that the
council must assume during the COM
ing year Efficiency must be insisted
upon and certainly there never was
a time when it was more needed, and
the responsibility rests upon all the
city fathers. the followers as well as
the new.
By the vote of the citizens at the
same time. the repeal of the water SUI
perintendent bill was ratified and has
become effective and we now go back
to the old time method of selecting a
superintendent every year, but it is to
be sincerely hoped that it will not be
on the basis Of politics regardless of
qualifications. Much of the objection
10 the bill was the manner in which
it was secured. If the same policy
was followed regarding the water SUI
perintendent as is done regarding
the superintendent of the gas and
electrical department, and the heads
of the fire and police departments
where experience and competency
govern, there could be no reasonable
demand for such a law. But it hasn't
been and it was in behalf of efficiency
and experience there, regardless Of
politics, that The Bulletin stood. 1t is
mistake to repeal the law but may
the attention this matter has received
result in an improvement.

FLYING BACK HOME.

Now that the NC-4 has arrived at

ton has been rolled up by the Ameri-

For the safeguarding of the sea-
planes on the initial fight unusual
precautions were taken. 1t was a wise
and costly provision, but justified new
ertheless in view of the risk involved
and the need of protecting the human
lives.
But with the American flying machine
tied up at Plymouth near the point
where the Mayfiower set sail. new in
terest was aroused because of the
possibility which had been suggested
of sending it home in the air on a
non stop flight between Ireland and
Newfoundland. Such a flight would be
for a distance of about 1000 miles SOC

In THE DAYS NEWS
What Japan Really Gets.

Contrary to general impression, the
peace treaty, as summarized in the
preliminary statement, does not cede
to Japan the whole province of Shan
tung, nor the bay or Kiaochau. nor the
holy places Of Shantunsa which include
the home and grave of Confueius.
The geographical limits of the por-
ton coded are outlined in a bulletin Of
the National Geographic, society. based
on a communication from Miss Eliza
r. Scidmore. traveller and author of
many books on travel, which follows:
In 1895 d German expert reported
to the German government that a deep
water harbor could. be dredged and
constructed in the northeast corner of
kiaechau bay. Overtures were made
to the Chinese to lease the bay to Ger
many for a. long term of years. and
were refused. e.<'

Kiaochau convention was signed at
Peking,. which gave a 99-year lease of
100 Ii of land, comprising. the rocky
point at the entrance of kiaochau bay,
to Germany. with supplementary rail-
way and mining concessions in the
province which provided for a railway
line from this leased territory on the
| seacoast to Tsinanfu. the capital of
Shantung, with the right to- develop
coal mines within 80 Ii of the line, and
| to build two branch lines.
"The Chinese had not occupied their
