One of the best ways to boost your home town and county is to send a copy of the special edition of the Daily Democrat published Tuesday to your friends at a distance. The paper shows a business community worth while. The railroad chiefs seem determined to bring about a condition which will border on disaster. The confer-' ence called to settle the strike result-, ed as have the previous ones, a heat- i ed discussion but no decision. In the meantime we are not talking about reduced freight rates and the .' country pays the bills. The new~tariffi law will increase the . cost of living in this country billions ; of dollars and there are those who have the courage to travel over the country telling of the wonderful achievements of the administration. , If there lives a man who can tell us just how the people are to benefit by ■ > a law which admittedly increases liv-,. ing costs at this time he is the man 1 we are looking for and a real optimist.

In 1915 the total tuxes of the state! ■ were ssii.S2B,oo(i while this year they were $114,041,000. When you con-1 aider that none of the official salaries I | have been Increased you must surely ; 1 wonder what is being done with the I ! money. We don’t know and we ‘ I haven't found any one giving out the i Information. Notwithstanding the fact thut valnations in this city have been redueled more than a million dollars this year the‘tax levy will not increase, showing a real reduction in dollar and cent taxes of one-seventh. That’s ■ good business and shows the men in | charge are giving their best attention to the welfare of the public. Mines in Indiana and Illinois haver reopened and many thousands of , employes are back at work. They have much to do for the entire coun try needs fuel and perhaps by the I time they get enough mined to take care of us the railroads will have whipped things into satisfactory ‘ shape and resumed traffic. It’s ceitainly a jazzed condition without par allel and if this is normalcy its far, from being popular. Saturday, September !Hh, is the first registration day and it is thfirst big task of the campaign. It I I you wish to vote in November, you | must register and the organization I jfor this is important. J. F. Fruchte, I democratic county chairman has issued a call for meetings of workers; and candidates to be held at Bame Friday evening and in this city Sat I urday evening to plan for this work • and those honestly’ interested should 1 be on hands. The state highway commission spent over eight million dollars i year, considerably more than the en- ( tire government cost the last year of the Ralston administration. The,' average cost of maintainence of roads by the state commission was $1 per mile while the average cost by the counties was ?160. They say w-i

CALLING THE LAMB'S TA J L ,JHIE STH LEG DOES NOT MAKE IT SO Because both Chiropractic and Osteopathy aro drugless methods, the prevailing idea is that therefore and necessarily they must be the saim thing. To form such a conclusion 1* something to be expected in the face of a wide spread contusion and ignorance relative to the principles gm practise of either of the above named Systems of healing. But let there be no further delay in explaining here ami now in the most emphatic lan-; guage possible that Chiropractic an l ' Osti ixpathy (excepting that neither one( uses drugs) have absolutely nothing in common. . They are two distinct separate and dissinlar professions. Osteopaths attribute the cause of, disease to impaired blood circulation. Chiropractors trace the cause to the nerves thut are interfered with because of, a bony pressure in the backbone or spinal column. Osteopaths manipulate and directly work on organs and tissues through the entire body. The chripractor confines till his efforts and time to correcting abnormal; conditions by adjusting subluxated vertebrae of the spine. A chiropractor does not rub or manl-1 pulate the body. He corrects the nervous interference that is responsible for disease. , In preparing for adjustments nude , ness of the body or any part of the i body is absolutely uncalled for, not being a requisite it should not be toler-| ated. So why live und ir the erroneous I opinion that you are getting Osteo-1 pathy treatments when in fact you are i getting Chiropractic adjustments. It is hardly hoped that this brief ex-1 planation will suffice to materially help in my educational campaign of teach-1 ing the public the fact that. Chiropratic is NOT Osteopathy or I medicine or anything else but Chiro | practic. S. J. ZURBUCH, DC., Phc. Rooms 1. 2. 3, 4 in K. C. Bldg Cor. N. 2nd and Madison St. Decatur, jnd.
