Mr.. Mace Bruder, well.known In

SIS Athon ST, this city, while talking
recently with the Konjola Man at
Hooks Drug Store, Pennsylvania
and Market SITS, Indianapolis, where
large crowds are calling daily to hear
his personal explanation of this sur
prising medicine.
-Four years ago l had my first at
tack of neuritis," continued Mr.
: Bruder Il began taking treatments
(which soon Had no effect on me
whatever. AS the months advanced
j seemed to get worse until l began
suffering almost every day in the
past year. The muscles and leaders
Of my neck would pull, and every
nerve would rack with pain. My
right shoulder and arm was so af-
fected that l couldn't bend my elbow
without the most agonizing pains
anyone ever endured. At times my
head would feel like it was going
to burst. This neuritis seemed to
settle in my whole left side, and

impossible, and when morning came

out of bed and dress myself. l am

Il have taken dozens of medicines,
and tried almost everything, but as
said before, the only lasting relief
l ever got was the second day after

sleep better and noticed l had more
energy in the morning. BY the time
had taken bottles 1 could safely
say the neuritis was ended and /
have made up my mind to indorse
this medicine. My head never aches
now, and my neck and shoulders are
free of all pains. 1 can use my arms,
and so about my work as tho /
never had neuritis at all.
'Konjola has helped me in other
ways too, because my digestion is
better and my appetite is improved.

GA WASHINGTON, Jan. Elbow
would you like to be an American
citizen, and yet have no vote. TO be
a taxpayer and have no voice in
saying how much you shall pay in
taxes, or how your money shall be
spent. To have children in school,
and yet be unable to say thing
about. school administration.
Aburd, you'll say. Such things
are not possible in America.
But they are. More than half a
million Americans, resident in the
District of Columbia, are completely
disfranchised. They are governed
by a group Of officials who are ap-
pointed, and while theoretically an
swerable to the President, in reality
are not answerable at all, except in
extreme instances. Judges, public
prosecutors and utilities commits
sioners likewise are appointive.
Lack of Influence
1t is small wonder there is an out
cry from capital citizens which. be-
cause they have no political influ-
! ence, is seldom heard beyond their
' own community.
The other day, for instance, the
superintendent of insurance told a
House committee that national in
surance lobby has consistently
blocked efforts to obtain an insur-
ance code which would establish
rates at fair level, and threatened
to "get him" for his activities. An
Insurance lobby likewise has blocked
an attempt to enact a workmen's
compensation law, modelled on the
highly successful Ohio law. The in
surance people fear the States will
initiate the Federal Government.
This is not an isolated incident.
The Federal capital is the battle
ground for every selfish interest, the
gathering place for every group of
quacks, cranks, reformers and up
filters, and the fountain-head of
propaganda.
No Appeal

given them. If q license for dogs

for suffrage is perennial. The most
articulate group-the trade bodies

tional representation. This would
require a constitutional amendment
and would give the District repre-
sentation in Congress and in the

frage.
Another group objects to a plan
which would not give home rule,
and insists that election of local Of
ficials, and the delegation of broader
powers to them, is more important.
No constitutional amendment would
be required for this.

More than 10000 sheep were

gress in the same way as legislation
affecting the entire country. Once
enacted, there is no appeal from
these laws. Congress, of course, is
busy, and the relatively unimpor-
tant municipal measures must COM
pete with bills establishing a naval

At present there is a clamor for
a change in this system. Congress
doesn't want to be annoyed with the
duties of a city council. The resi-
dents of the city are loud in their
complaints. A House subcommittee,

Representative Ernest w. Gibson of
