Selecting Russell's Successor. Friday night of this week members of the city council will elect some citizen to succeed Prof. Elbert Russell as one of the members at large. If the successor of Prof. Russell is a man who does not measure up well to this popular educator's high standard . of citizenship and ability council will discredit itself with the community, whose citizens are past the stage when they will be contented with "lightweights" in the municipality's lawmaking body. . Prof. Russell's efficient services were obtained for the city by pursuing the usual policy of having the office seek the man instead of the man seeking the office. In selecting his successor it would be well to carry out this policy again. . It can be said for the present council that it has been above the average in personnel and it is up to council not to lower its standard by ushering into Russell's seat some petty politician who desires the office only for its small compensation. The new councilman must be a representative citizen, some public spirited and intelligent business man or wage earner with a mental equipment sufficient to wisely act upon the really important questions council is constantly confronted with. There are plenty of men in Richmond capable of filling this position with credit to themselves and to the city. Because they are not avowed
candidates for the off ice does not indicate that they would refuse to accept it if tendered to them. Incidentally in retiring from his two years of service in the city council, Prof. Russell takes with him to his new field of endeavors the best wishes of thousands of appreciative Richmond citizens for his excellent activities in their behalf. He personifies a type of citizen too seldom seen in public life and so "badly needed. The Tariff Bogey. This sage editorial summary of the tariff situation appearing in the Saturday Evening Post is submitted to the readers of the Palladium for them to ponder over carefully. In this last fiscal year our purchases of foreign goods were smaller by two hundred million dollars than in the year before, and at the end of the period commodity prices in the United States, as reflected by Bradstreet's index number, were the highest ever known. But in spite of that the country, our protectionist friends tell us is being mysteriously ruined by the pauper labor of Europe. The aforesaid labor is getting killed and maimed to an extent that appalls the world. The factories in which it was employed are increasingly disorganized by war. The capital behind it is being shot away at the rate of tens of millions of dollars a day. But those things were mere broken reeds to lean upon, unless we are further fortified against European competition by a very high tariff. You might sink Europe in the sea tomorrow, and your true high protectionist would still go about pale and trembling unless he had in his pocket the rabbit's foot of high duties to fend off the specter of pauper labor. A European with both arms in a sling aftd not a leg to stand on would still frighten him into gooseflesh unless he had the tariff horseshoe over his door. So the tariff will no doubt be one of the issues of the next presidential election, and if the Republicans win we shall have another revision of it. The loudest champions of high protection do not want an intelligent tariff; they want a political one, with the usual logrolling. This is painful to contemplate, but as neither Democrats nor Republicans seem at all minded to take the tariff out of politics there is probably no help for it. j

WHY COUNCIL DRAWS PAY. BY EDGAR I LI FF. This is a tale of long ago when Richmond was young. It was in the days when the good town fathers were municipal patriots and charged nothing for their - services, considering it a great honor to be a member of the common council. These public servants sat, session after session, wrestling with matters of state, such as fire-wells, town pumps,' wooden awnings and bad boys. There were slews of bad boys then and they gave the town councilmen a heap of trouble by chasing the hogs up Main street and stoning old women's geese under their very noses. Some of these bad boys are still living, posing as "prominent citirens." The good die young. Some died and went to heaven; some lived and went to congress. -.. No breath of suspicion had ever blown upon these town fathers. There was no city printing to fuss about. There was no street-car company to crucify, no waterworks corporation to persecute, no gas and light company to freeze out, no editors to kill, no reporters to bam-boozle, no "issues" of any kind to straddle, and nobody to soft soap or spread salve to. There were no bridges to condemn and close up, for everybody could swim. There were no dumps to weep over, for in those happy days nobody ever had the dumps. But alas! The evil days came. One

Ears Boswell started a brewery In the town and the fame of his brew reached the ears of the town council. On a certain hot night, after sweating over the location of a town pump, the honorable body adjourned and rushed the growler. The next day the watch dog of the town, signing himself "Citizen," arose pen in band and howled through the columns of the Weekly Palladium that. "the corrupt and venal town councilmen were drinking beer at the tax payers' expense!" No town or city can thrive without its watch dog "Citizen" who is forever carding the newspapers over a perfect kaleidoscope of public wrongs and corporation robberies. He is the bulwark of our liberties. Then the tocsin of war was sounded. The slogan of the next campaign was "Beer and Taxes." And the poor, innocent town fathers, 'who had quaffed a little of the foaming brew, fresh from the vat. and had paid 12 cents a quart out of their own pockets, were all turned out of office and their places filled with the over-righteous who never, never, tasted beer except in Cincinnati, far from the keen eye of the ever-watchful "Citizen" of Richmond. And then began the days of salaried councilmen and there were jobs and jobbing in the land. And "All the wicked citizens In the vale of Siddian Thought of things they shouldn't do Then they went and did 'em."

Did Best Days Work Done In Over 5 Years Mr. John H. Tiemann, Member of the German Lutheran Church, Tells How He Finally Overcame His Difficulties.
"I was nearly dead this summer," is what Mr. John T. Tiemann, worthy member of the Seventh Street German Lutheran church, this city, said Tuesday, to the Tanlac Man at the Sixth and Main street store of Thistlethwaite's, where Tanlac is being introduced in Richmond. "I had to drag myself around, as I tried to attend to my daily work. For over five years I have suffered from indigestion and with st: mach and liver trouble. My stomach was in such a
diseased condition that I could scarce
ly retain my food. No medicine I could get would help me. I felt myself growing weaker every day, and some days I felt as though I was half dead, yet I depended upon the fruits of my daily toil for existence, so I did the best I could. "One day a neighbor of mine, who had been taking Tanlac for catarrh of the stomach, with beneficial results, advised me to try the remedy. I am just completing my second bottle, and I want to tell you that I feel fine, and your medicine is the best I have ever heard of or taken. I did a hard day's work Monday, the best I have done in five years, and last night I 6lept well, arising this morning refreshed, ready and keen for the day's work. My stomach is now in fine condition, my appetite good.my liver is active, and my whole being seems to have undergone a wonderous change. Tanlac is surely the Master Medicine." Adv.

ENTAL research has found -that only 1.2 fo
of the Maoris of New Zealand
have any decay of teeth. Next come the Esquimaux, only 1.4 of those examined having teeth unsound. Third rank certain tribes of Canadian Indians. Some years ago the British Dental Association examined the teeth of 10,500 English school children. 86 had some decay of the teeth! Why? From leading dental authorities we get this answer: - Races having the best teeth chew foods which excite the salivary glands. The Maori
flavors food with the juice of the tutu-berry a keen exciter of the salivary flow. The Canadian Indian chews wood of the sugar pine. The human saliva is endorsed by these same authorities as Nature's own mouth wash the best conserver of the teeth best since man began. In encouraging a normal flow of saliva, the clean, pure Sterling Gum brines distinct aid to the health of the teeth. It acts against what dentists call "oral (mouth) stagnation. The importance of this fact may lead you to suppose it the 7th Sterling point but no; that 7th point is still as much a mystery as ever.
