# there is anything in the opinion
recently given out by retiring Attor-
nv General Palmer to the effect that
druggists may lawfully dispense beer
and wine prescribed by physicians re-
gardless of the quantity or frequency
of the doses prescribed. there can be
but little else than that in his opinion
the lawmakers have been unable to
max the law as strong as the people
intended It is the view of The York
willie Enquirer that this is one Of those
cases where the opinion has been
given a certain way because the Of
ficial giving the opinion wanted II
that way and If he had wanted lt
otherwise, his contrary opinion would
have been made even stronger. 1t Will
be remembered that Palmer while 4
candidate before the Democratic
nominating convention at San Francis
CO was accused Of using his Official
position 10 secure the release from
bond of several barrels Of liquor in
tended to further his ecorts to secure
majority 1t has never been made
clear that the story was not true. The
good common sense of the country is
unable to see why thre is not as much
harm in liquor prescribed by physi-
clan as there is in liquor dispensed by
bootlegger. However the new at
torney general does not have to be
bound by any such rotten opinion. and
it is hoped that he will not be SO
bound.

That is quite comprehensive sum
mary of the national financial situ-
alton that Is contained in Hon. John
/. McLaurin's letter to the: Darling
ton News and Press, reproduced else
where in The Yorkville Enquirer OF
today. The key to this summary IS
found in the proposition that money
is not wealth but only the representa-
tive of wealth. The basis OF wealth
is food and clothes. There is no
doubt about that. These are produced
mainly by the, farmer. Manipulation
that successfully takes away the
farmers product at less than value
gives the value to the manipulators.
So long as the farmer puts himself IN
q position to be manipulated, he VIII
be manipulated; but if the farmer
would protect himself. from manipu-
lation he must keep himslf out OF
debt.

LeaaIized Gambling.

LeaaIized Gambling.
It has been given out that during
the extra session Of congress Senator
Capper, Of Kansas, will devote his eff
forts to the regulation of the. grain and
produce exchanges Of the country, with
a. view to checking, as far as possible
the ruinous manipulation of the gam
bIers. 49,. .. -,
This is most worthy purpose on the
part OF Senator Capper and it. is the
hope of The Yorkville Enquirer that his
efforts will be vigorously seconded by
all representatives OF the South who
have the welfare of the agricultural in
trests at heart. -. =
SSSenator Capper says that due to daily
fluctuations, in prices weeks range Of
the wheat market might easily reach
from rs to so cents bushel, all at the
expense Of consumers and producers,
and with no profit to anybody except
the gamblers. The same is true Of cot
ton.
The commercial, economic and finan-
cal conditions of this country are most
graphically and accurately compre-
hended in. the following arraignment
in the eighth chapter of the Prophet
Amos:
4. Hear this, o, We that would sWal-
low up. the. needy and cause the poor
Of the land to fail,
s. Saying, When will the new moon
be gone, that we may sell grain, ana
the Sabbath that we set forth wheat.
making the epha small and the shekei
great, and dealing falsely with balances
Of deceit;
6. That we may buy the poor for
silver, and the needy for pair OF
shoes, and sell the refuse Of the wheat!
z. Jehovah hath sworn by the excel
Ilency Of Jacob, surely Will never. for-
get any OF their works.
There is no economic or commercial
necessity for these grain exchanges or
cotton exchanges, and it may as well
be admitted that they are nothing but
legalized gambling devices for which
our government is responsible, and We
as a people, are responsible.
Remember the old Louisiana state
Lottery? It was established shortly
after the Civil war under the patronage
OF several Confederate generals who all
lowed the use Of their names for a
price. It drew patronage from all Sec
tions of the United States, and waxed
so rich and powerful thatIit secured
control Of the state government of Lou
isiana. 1t was destroyed at last|only by
an act Of congress that denied 1t the
use of the mailst'tN
The business of the so-called produce
exchanges, and the stock Exchanges
either, so far as that is concerned, is
not one whit more moral or righteous
than was the business of the Louisiana
State lottery.
But because the patrons Of the eX-
changes have. ..Waxed sufficiently rlch
and powerful, s1ey are established IN
their positions land they are able to
feed on the honest toll Of the masses OF
the people wit aouts let orr hindrance'
Their burdens bear down on humble
workers everywhere, and they are a
terrible curse to the entire country.
Congress could destroy these great
rambling institutions to the wholesome
advantage Of the whole nation; but
congress has not heretofore been will
ing to do anything of the kind simply
hacause the intelligence and virtue of
the country does not yet realize the sit
nation as it was pointed out by Amos
of old.

A REAL BOOSTER
FOR THE Dixie:

Rev. Ira Boswell, pastor of a
Christian cuhrch at Georgetown,
made an eloquent plea for inter
est in the Dixie Highway compile
ton at the courthouse Friday
morning.
He told agood crowd that there
are 100000 automobiles in the
north that want to travel and
the only thing that keeps them
from coming this way is the bad
roads. He said that out in Mis-
soula, Montana, the garages and
stores kept account and last year
$4,000 auto tourists passed thru
the town and it was figured that
100000 of outside money was
spent there-and simply because
a good highway goes through it,
and the people helped boost it
along.
Mr.. Boswell was accompanied
here by Rev. Orland Beck. well
known here, who is the Metho-
dist pastor at Georgetown. and
both are intensely interested in
seeing Kentucky improve her
roads and especially the Dixie
Highway through this section.

WHAT CAUSES TIE
fARMER'S DOWNFALL
(Contfi6utedJ

What has becoffis Of the farms
err? is; q question Aiat worries
him now. The farmer feeds the
world. He is the backbone,
muscle, tissue. blood and brains
and it seems he is Too indepen-
dent to own it, Or too contrary,
and I hardly know which. The
farmer stands now Just where /
thought he would drift for mum
Der of years-give way and let
other people run his business and
when you do that Kind Of bust
ness you need not expect any
thing else. but have the bills to
pay. Today the farmer isn't
making his salt from his toll and
labor and sweat. Hogs don't pay
for their raising: cattle don't
pay a decent grazing bill; Sheep
bad enough and the wool from a
hundred head wouldn't buy enuf
socks for a family Of six for IL
months. Grain! Yes grain. At
ter paying the expenses wheat
won't bring 40 cents a bushel and
-four $1,000 per barrel. Who is
to blame?
! Corn talk now. 1t will be
worth 81 per bushel this fall.
Potato crop a failure; gardens
drying up and meals so cents.
Whisky So .iuart and bootleg
gers more plentiful than fiddlers
in Helena, Montana. and not an
officer in sight. unless it be a
poor pitiful little bandy-shanked
crooked-kneed farmer and then
they pull him for all they can,
and tell an officer to keep watch
for a fellow. he goes and tells
the fellow what you said and to
keep cool.
Yes there is the farmers tax.
Is it high? don't see how some
are to pay it. Too many block
heads drawing salaries. Where
are Mr.. Morrow's curtailments
He has created more than he has
dumped into the river. Politix.
Back to the farmer. How will
he ever get even with the world !?
He won't organize. He will not
stand hitched--hever has since he
came out of the Garden of Eden,
and never will until you put him
back. ~
Sapire organization, tobacco
pool? Yes you may get him in
and then along comes something
like Jack Dempsey and knocks
him over the ropes. The best or
ganization the world has ever

Loss Of Appetite

AS a general rule there is no
thing serious about loss Of aD-
petite and if you skip a meal or
only eat two meals a day for a
few days you will have relish
for yourmeals when meal time
comes. Bear in mind that at
least five hours should always
elapse between meals so as to
give the food ample time to di-
gest and the stomach period Of
rest before the second meal is
taken. Then if You eat no more
than you crave and take a reas-
enable amount Of outdoor exer-
else every day you will not need
to worry about your appetite.
When the loss of appetite is caus-
ed by constipatiorka as is often the
case, that should be corrected at
once. A dose of Chamberlain 5
Tablets will do it. july

duly elected and entitled to McLane's
seat. The vote to put McLane out was
161 to 121.
Charges by the committee that liq-

McLane threw the house into an in
tensely bitter wrangIe. The commit
tee held McLane should be unseated
for violating the corrupt practices act
and because of wholesale election
frauds. Its report was unanimous.
