Of the homely freckles and get a

worst case.
Be sure to ask the druggist for
the double strength Othine as this
strength is sold under guarantee of

THE COUNTY BUDGET

Maine Legislature
Representative HOlley of North Anson
introduces Measures. Institutions
Well Provided For

Frank H. Holley of North Arson has
introduced before the 80th Maine Log
islature budget measures providing
for appropriations for the entire State
and the following are the recommend
ations of this bill for Somerset Coun-
ty institutions:
First yearly period $4,000
Second yearly period 35oe.00
Somerset Academy at Athens:
First six months $4,000
First yearly period 10000
Second yearly period $4,000
Maine Central Institute at Pittsfield:
First six months $2500.0O
First yearly period 100000
Second yearly period 100000
Fairfield Sanitorium:
First six months STA, 4,027 20
First yearly period 149.054.40
Second yearly period 149,054 40
New construction at Fairfield Sani-
torium with the recommendation that
the money be put into cottage for
the convenience of the staff employ
ed, 100000.
Woman's Reformatory at Skowhegan:
F1rSt SIX months $zz,IoU.oO
First yearly period 45,505.00

New construction and repairs for
Woman's Reformatory, s55,000.00.
Hartland Academy:
First yearly period $1500.00
Second yearly period 100000
The budget recommended six mill
tax rate. a decrease of IL mills from
the tax assessed in 1919 and de-
crease of IL mills from the 1920
taxes making a total reduction, as
compared in the two years. of 2A
mills. Inasmuch as a mill tax in
the State of Maine today represents
$63S,000 it will be readily seen that il
this program outlined by Representa-
tive Holley speaking for the Budget
Committee is carried out by the Leg
islature that a total of about $4,000
900 will be saved the taxpayers OF
Maine.
Mr.. Holley has taken great interes'
in this matter and feels that the wei
fare of the institutions named have
been amply provided for.

JACKMAA IS NOT THE PRINCIPAL RUM
RUNNING CENTER IN THE WORLD
Denies that Many Thousands of Gallons Of
Liquor Pass Daily Thru Border Town

In the following statements <. A
Piper, prominent resident of Jack
man denies the frequent stories told of
Jackman and explains the situation
relative to rum conditions and report
ed lawlessness there.
Jackman, within the last few years.
has acquired wonderful reputation
as being a town far wilder than the
frontier settlements of the west and
town with large number of all
kinds of crooks according to the ad-
gertisement that has been given It by
various writer's of romance which has
made a speciality of knocking Jack
man as a town and necessarily the
people in it.
Jackman has had various things
happen within its borders but by
whom? Was it the settlers of Jack
man or people who came into Jack
man and only stayed short time?
The way it has been anybody caught
with rum in their possession from the
Line House to California, the papers
say their home was in Jackman and IL
every man that was caught with rum
that the papers said was from Jack
man, Jackman would necessarily be
larger than Boston to hold the popu-
lation. This town is a numbering
town and necessarily must have a
large number of men from various
places. There is no doubt four thou
sand men are employed in the woods
within an area of 25 miles from Jack
man and by necessity they must come
to Jackman for their supplies and to
take passage to the different places
where they go. Those men are all
classed as from Jackman because they
happen to be here when they get into
trouble and that is where Jackman has
been getting its bad name by the peo-
pie who came here, not those who live
