ExTOLS SEN. PARKS
AND REP. CAIN.

Editor Breckenridge News:
should like to use your column for
the purpose OF saying a word to the
people of the Tenth Senatorial Dis
trict, and Breckenridge and Hancock
ciunties, concerning their representa-
tives in the General Assembly.
! have spent practically the entire
winter in Frankfort; this being the
eighteenth year which have had
occasion to visit the State capital
during most of the sessions OF the
legislature. Permit me to say that YOU
have never had two more creditable
representatives than DR.. s. =. Parks
and Roy Cain
More progressive health legislation
has been enacted this winter than at
any session in the history of the
state. and to Dr. Parks, as Chairman
of the Senate Committee on Public
Health, is due the credit of the en-
dctment of most of this legislation.
Representative Cain is a sober. con-
scientious gentleman, always in his
seat, seldom upon the floor, with a
remarkable faculty for Analysing a
situation and voting right. When a
political question was involved. his
vote would have satisfied DR.. Frank,
jeff Jolly or Blandford but when some
of the self-appointed Republican
leaders undertook 20 play politics
where no partisan question was at
issue, they could not deceive Roy
Cain.
Looking back over the history of
the district and county for thirty
years, may | not say as Democrat,
that at no time have you been repre-
sented by two ADLER or more con-
scentious men. Very truly yours,
Milton Board Louisville, Ky.

tatingly Tell Suffering Humanity
What Celebrated Medicine Has
Done for Them.

II is seldom, indeed, that men OF
i prominence, especially men holding
high public office, willingly express
their Indebtedness publicly to a pro-
prietary medicine Many prominent
men, however, including supreme
court judges, mayors of our leading
cities, prominent state and county
officials, bankers, lawyers, doctors,
editors, leading educators, govern
ment officials and even ministers of
the Gospel have deemed it their duty
to come forward and tell the people
what Tanlac has done for them.
These well-known men of affairs
have recognized in this medicine a
new discovery and scientific triumph
in the medical world. 1t is a we'll
known fact that these splendid in
dorsements have been given Tanlac
time and time again and they will
continue to be given just as often as
new tests of its powers are made {;
and it also explains why numbers of
the big drug firms of the country are
ordering it exclusively in carload lots.

ELKs TRUE TO FORM.

The Ladies Night" at the Elks' was a great success. quite naturally. It appears to be a habit of this or- ranizat,on. st least locally. to make q success of what 1t undertakes.
 This fact is cited not because they are "The Elks" but rather because they have given such evidence. on many occasiors. of their full sym pathy with movements for the gen. eral good. They appear to be an ex- ample of what a real getting together may mean when the spirit is not en- tirely a selfish one.
 A late instance was mentioned by Chairman Bennett at tho close of the hospital drive. He thanked the Jr- ganizatlon for the use of the rooms for the daily luncheons which did so much to encourage and inspire can vassers and others. and which were such factor in the success of the drive. Organizations which consider those l outside of it. and which enter heart fly into movements for the benefit of the community or the nation de- serve word of praise for the aid they are to the community and the | country.

RAIL RATE DECISION.

The Court of Appeals in New York 1 state has ruled that the two-cent-a- mile rate must be restored since the ] roads have been returned to private ownership. By it's franchise d two cent rate was allowed. This rate was l suspended through the war power which superseded state authority. bands of tho government. must be operated under the terms of it's fran chisc and the tower rate restored. The case decided involved the rate between the cities of New York and Buffalo.
 The Esch- -Cummins bill provided that upon return of the railroads to private ownership, the tariff in force February 29, 1920 should continue until thereafter changed by State or Federal authority.
 The railroads claimed that legisla- tive action was necessary before a change could he made-such legisla- tive action being state authority
 
 effect that the Public Service Com mission is sufficient State authority. and that the rates must be changed if 1t so orders.
 The decision is important in all states having an authority or body similar to the Public Servica Com m sion Of New York State as the case is in this state. The formers court de- cisions are followed as precedents. Un- less this decision is reversed by the United States Supreme court to which appeal will probably be taken, no ac- ton by state legislatures w.ll he necos- snry to compel q return to pre-war rates if the state Commission takes strh. acton regarding such rates.

 The next witnesses called were Drs. Purney and Cooley, both of whom pronounced the man as sane although not of the highest grade of intelligence. They had questioned him and examined his head. The queries were put through an interpreter but were appare ntly answered in straightforward manner, especially those having to do with his birth place and business.

"JEST RUMINATIN'.'
(Roheri Russell.)


 If we could talk O flowers an their fragrance all the time, 'twould be an awful easy thing to write a daily rhyme. But there is missiles in the world, an weeds that ain't so nice-an' likewise things unpleasant we
 price. An in between the flowers an the weeds there's much debate. on questions which, to say the least, are somewhat delicate. We have to face 'em every day; that makes it mighty bad for him who talks to woman, man, young girl an little lad. The best that we can do is when we meet d noxious weed. to dig it up an there to plant a little flower seed. then watch the spot to see that weed ain't left no blackened trail. lest that fresh flower, springin' up. should struggle hard-then fail. Be sure we know the difference 'twixt flowers fair an weeds, for sometimes things look rough that's really jest the things we needs. But if we can bring them weeds. we needn't worry when. at last. men total up our deeds.

ADVERTISING ORIGINALITY.

The advertising game is still in it's infancy and many ingenious tricks have been used to attract the atten- ton of the buying public.
 There is one publicity idea which has come to the attention of this office through the necessity of spacing the i paper
 It was found necessary to shirt an
 ad which generally appeared on the
 back page to an inside position. The
 public was used to seeing that ad on
 the back page. An individual who is used to looking at the back page un- consciously wonders what is amiss with that page. He thinks about it and finally it dawns on him that Mir. As ad isn't there. Curiosity dom mates the individual so much that he will not rest in peace until he finds that ad. or if he doesn't look for it purposely, he is on the watch for it as he turns the pages. In other words. he thinks about that ad for it is out of the direct line of habit. The ad- vcrtiser has accomplished his purpose: he has made the indifferent man think about the matter.
