US. OWNERSHIP OF
RAILROADS URGED
By DILL, AT meet

Government ownership of the
country's railroads is one of the san
est business propositions ever brought
up IN the United States, said c. c. Dill,
ex-congressman from Washington, in
an address to big mass meeting of
citizens in the coliseum Tuesday
night
The government has been making
profits on the railroads ever since
taking them over as a war measure,
asserts Dill.
1--WE are not running the railroads
to make money he said. eve were
running them to win the war" The
statements made that the country is
out approximately $2,000,000,00O are
true, Dill said.
He then said that the basis allowed
the railroads as profits, which they
would have made if they had been
handling the roads, amounted to about
S1,OO0,O00,000 annually
However this condition no '"n""r
exists, he said Since last July, &C.
cording to figures presented ~ ,ne
speaker $1,000, 100000 has been paid
and the government has been making
from $2OO,OOO,O0O to $7OO.O00.OOO prof
its month, with the exception of the
III Will thC wal otlAhC " oo
effective.
He believes that the government
should be given a chance to operate
the railroads under normal conditions,
as they have been handicapped during
their present ownership, he said.
Believes in n. c. L. Solution
Dill also claimed that this plan of
railroad ownership by the government
was a solution of the high cost of
living problem. He said that the
railroads were not only the biggest,
but the most basic industry in the
. country, as all industries large or
small, were dependent upon the rail
roads continuation for transportation
facilities.
The industries pay freight rate -
said the speaker. which vitality affect
the high cost of living, as prices are
governed by the cost of production
plus the freight rate and the profit OF
both"
When the railroads collect four to
five billions of dollars the people pay
20 billions and if the roads raise the
freight rates 25 per cent, as they have
previously stately they will do if the
roads are returned to private owner
ship, this will add an average of $40
United States
He also brought out that an indus
try public in it's origin, public in it's
power and publican it's service, as the
railroads are should, be in its owner
ship
To Stop Profiteerine
AS long as it is private in its
ownership, someone is going to profit
eer out of it, and the only way to stop
freight profiteering is to take the
railroads away from private owner
ship concluded Dill in his argument
on the high cost of living and the
railroads
The rest of his address was confined
to minor points of interest on this
topic.
William A. Bond, Judge of the circuit
court, introduced the speaker.
A half hour concert was given by
the Garfield school orchestra of 20
pieces proceeding the address. Miss
Edna Marlat, assistant supervisor of
music in the public schools. directed
the orchestra. 'tsSa4 ~

Advice on Sowing Barley
and Oats Is rendered

The loss of the wheat crop by the
fly on many farms has caused far
mers to consider sowing wheat fields
to oats and barley, according to
Wayne county experts, who say care
should be taken in selecting seed. Elk
periments show wide variation in the
yield of different varieties Of oats and
barley.
The increase in yield to be obtain.
ed from the use of the best seed is
the easiest money that a farmer
makes. The increased cost of good
seed is made up many times by the
increase in yield.
Another factor to be considered in
the selection of seed is termination
Disappointing stands are frequently
due to low termination. A germina
ton test is easily made by placing a
few grains of the seed to be tested
between pieces of cloth or blooting pa
per on plate and turning another

the provisions of the income tax law

held to represent personal, living or
family expenses"

= ABOUT RHEUMATISM
What Thousands Have Found Gives
Relief From This Painful Trouble.

Rheumatism is constitutional dis
ease, manifesting itself in local aches
and pains, inflamed joints and stif
muscles. 1t cannot be cured by local
or external applications. 1t must
have constitutional treatment.
Take a course of the great blood
purifying and tonic medicine, Hoods
Sarsaparilla, which corrects the acid
condition of the blood on which rheu-
matism depends, and gives perma-
nent relief. This medicine combines,
with excellent alternatives and tonics,
what is generally conceded to be the
most effective agent in the treatment
of this disease.
If cathartic or laxative is needed
take Hoods Pills-purely vegetable.

How to Have a Clear Skin

Having cleared your skin keep
it clear by using Cuticura Soap and
Ointment for everyday toilet pur-
poses and Cuticura Talcum to powder
and perfume. Battle with Cuticura
Soap and hot water, using plenty of
soap, best applied with the hands
which it softens wonderfully. If
signs of pimples, redness or rough
ness are present touch lightly with
Cuticura Ointment before bathing to
soothe and heal.

The family had listened with rapt
attention, and, as the head paused Ia
his narrative, the young heir, whose
respect for his fathers bravery was
unreasonable, proudly remarked:
He couldn't knock any brains out
of you, could he, father?"
The head Of the family gazed long
and earnestly at the heir as if to de-
tect evidences of a dawning humorist.
but as the youth continued with great

Everything entering into the cost OF

The SUGGESTION of taking the tax

tective tariff or tax.
We suspect. however, that many
millions who voted to place the re-
publicans in control OF the govern
ment, do not understand the theories
Of taxation advocated and practiced by

thinking.
