Budget a Legislative Aid

The seth Legislature is favored at
the beginning of it's work as no
previous Legislature has been by
bsving placed before it not later than
the fifth day of the session the report
Of the Budget Committee. That re-
port win comprise the information
collected in accordance with the act
of the Legislature which requires:
Heads of State departments and
others entrusted with expenditures Of
public moneys to file estimate with
clerk Of committee in October pre-
cedfng Legislative session." and re-
quests corporations and associations
desiring State aid also to file state
ments.
The committee has held hearings
in every county in the State and has
collected a mass of information and
the act requires the committee in
making up the estimates to submit
an estimate in detail, or general
estimate in any instance where it is
impracticable to give specific items.
. 1t is provided that the estimate shall
include such sums as may be deemed
necessary for charitable and benevo-
lent institutions, new buildings or
the renovation of old buildings of
state institutions. and for such other
purposes for which public money
may be properly appropriated.
1t is thus seen of what possible
assistance this information may be to
the incoming Legislature. While
that body is not required to accept
these estimates they nevertheless af-
ford at the very least what might be
termed a birds eye view of State ex-
penditures and must contribute very
materially to the desired sense of
proportion which successful legisla-
ton needs. This work of the Budget
Committee should be considered
seriously and no effort should be
spared to make the most of it. Mod =
ern methods acquire such assistance,
which properly directed and utilized
will not only simplify the work of
the Legislature, lessen expense but
should decidedly improve results

Prediction and Performance

There would be less loose political
campaign talk from one and all
political organizations if the takers
could be neld to account for it: knew
that the wild assertions would later
be parallelled with the facts. The
Journal has no desire to rub in" the
results of the last municipal cam
paign but it does seem very appro-
pirate and matter of ordinary JUS
tice to call attention to the actual
conditions CT the city Treasury Jan
l as compared with what the Demo-
crates predicted after employing an
expert to so over the books.
The published reports of the city
auditor and Of the treasurer and
collector bear out the estimates made
by the treasurer prior to the election
and utterly refute the pre- election
predictions Of the Democrats. These
reports show that every bill which
has been presented has been paid and
IVA b'i'io NPA!sISN " uc SSllleu up
has been settled and the city. Jan. /.
had more than $4,000 ito the good:
that this WAS done without recourse
to a temporary loan to close up the
years business. 1t appears that the
taxes have beer collected more close
ly than usual, less than $1,000 remain
ing uncollected and most of those be-
ing in the advertised list. Evidently
close attention to the work has made
his spossiblc, although Treasurer
Wilson says he has found people dis
posed to pay. Toward the end of the
year he sent letter to every ac-
count on the books and received A.
very gratifying response.
Such are the facts, and it will he
we'll for the voters to keep them in
mind and give credit where credit is
due. Nor would it be inappropriate
to lay them away in their memories,
as later they may be found of assist
ance in estimating irresponsible CAM
paign statements.

II had indigestion for long time.
I got to where no kind of food APP

anything. What little / did force

of my stomach. My stomach was
sour, l felt all stuffed UP, and my
heart palpitated until it seemed that
it would come up into my throat, and

chest At times it was so bad could
hardly get my breath. l. was also
badly constipated.
my sister had taken Tanlac with
good results, and after / worried
along with my troubles for a. while
she finally got me to give it a trial.
Well. I was very much surprised at
the results 1t helped me right from
the start, and now my stomach seems
to be in first class condition. My ap-
petite is line, and nothing l eat hurts
me the least bit. l used to be nerv-
Gus, and couldn't sleep very well, but
since taking Tanlac my nerves are
perfectly normal, and I sleep like a
log every night. In fact. / feel just
like I wanted to feel. and I'm glad of

Governor Coolidge on the Railroads
Of New England
Il

Thes definite suggestion offered by
Gov. Coolidge in his address on the
New England railr- ad situation should
be acted upon. Six new New England
governors are about to take Office.
Let the joint New England conference
on foreign and domestic commerce
adopt the earnest recommendation"
of the retiring Governor of Massachu-
sets and Immediately at the begin
ming of the next political year cause
to be held a conference of those COVER
nors and other interested parties for
the purpose of informing themselves
and the public and deciding on pol
icy that win provide adequate trans
portation for the Industrial needs OF
the New England estates" =
The Governor in his address made
no attempt to point out a special
remedy for existing problems. He did
take pains to emphasize the necessity
for a good railway system. He made
incidental illusions to the plea now
pending before the interstate commerce
commission for the assignment to the
New England lines of larger share
of through trunk charges than now
they are allotted. He referred to pos
sible consultations, both within New
England and for the access of great
trunk lines to New England. He men,
toned several economies that may OF

enue, which is, of course an increase
in, lac lie
| the one naturally seized upon by
many for discussion and criticism. But
| to make it the outstanding feature OF
the address is dsproportionately to
magnify it. He said definitely: 1T is
not my purpose to discuss the relative

but rather to direct the attention oil

sity of informing itself and the neces-
sity of the preservation of its rights.

New England governors conference
however, our retiring Governor had in

Police Department on the part of the
Mayor and Alderman baked Judge
Joseph +. F. Connolly, who appeared
before the board tonight and orally
outlined in some detail such accusa-
lions as he would have preferred for
mally if given opportunity. The
chamber was packed in consequence
of announcement that a more or less
sensational session was in store.
An order by Alderman Bunting to
extend opportunity to Judge Connolly
to state his charge was ruled out of
order by Mayor Clarke, who said that
such an order is unnecessary, that
any citizen has right to be heard at
any time to state any grievance
Judge Connolly referred to incidents
that had been called to his attention.

Il You Need a Medicine
You shsuN Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason
why 1t is that so many products that
are extensively advertised, all at once
drop out Of sight and are soon for
gotten? The reason is plain-the ar
ticle did not fulfil the promises of the
manufacturer. This applies more
particularly to a medicine. A medic
inal preparation that has real cura-
tive value almost sells itself, CAS- like
an endless chain system the remedy
is recommended by those who have
been benefited, to those who are in
need of it.
"A prominent druggist says Take
for example DIR. Kflmers Swamp
Root. a preparation I have sold for
many years and never hesitate to
recommend, for in almost every case
it shows excellent results, as many
Of my customers testify. No otheS
kidney remedy has so large a sale!t'
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who
have used the preparation. the sue
cess of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
due to the fact, SO many people claim,
that it fulfils almost every wish in
overcoming kidney, liver and bladder
ailments, corrects urinary troubles
and neutralizes the uric acid which
causes rheumatism.

There is an herb which grows wild
on our Western Plains known as
'Manzanita" and to which the Indi-

healing virtue
There is no question but that ma
ture has bounteously provided in the
roots and herbs of the field a RENE
dy for many of the ills to which hu-
man flesh is heir. This is demon
strated by the wonderful success of
that root and herb medicine, Lydia
