THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM WEDNESDAY, FEB. 12, 1919.

HOUSE PASSES AMENDMENT FOR STATESUFFRAGE Measure Must be Passed by Next Assembly and Ratified by People. INDIANAPOLIS, Feb., 12 The house by a vote of 91 to 0 passed the Beardsley senate Joint resolution to amend the state constitution to grant suffrage to women and to prevent aliens from voting. In order to become effective the resolution also must be passed by the next general assembly In 1921 and ratified by a vote of the people. There was no debate on the resolution when It was handed down by Speaker Eschbach on third reading. It had been taken for granted that it would pass and since final decision rests with the next Legislature, hardly a ripple preceded the roll call. The provision of the resolution barring aliens from voting requires a person must be a full-fledged citizen before he may cast bis ballot instead of according the privileges to an alien, who has taken out his papers and declared his Intention of becoming a citizen. Mrs. Richard E. Edwards of Peru, president of the Woman's Franchise League of Indiana, made the following statement regarding the action of the legislature in passing the resolution r Pleased at Result "The wonderful success of suffrage In Indiana far overshadows our defeat in the United States senate. There could be no clearer evidence of the progresslveness of the Hoosier state than the fact that today our amendment to the state constitution granting women the right to vote In Indiana, and what is equally important for our state, confining the right to vote to citizens, passed the house unanimously. I am more pleased with the fact that It was unanimous, that both parties are united behind this great electoral reform, than with any other development of our suffrage campaign. "It is not too much to say that we have had support and, help from practically every man of great political prominence in the state. No one who has been appealed to has refused his assistance, and it argues well for the success of the measure in another Legislature, and at the time of the referendum vote, that the legislature, both Democrats and Republicans, the leaders of the state and the press of the state, were all of one mind in this matter.

OHIO STOCK GROWERS TO GET CLAIMS FOR ANIMALS KILLED COLUMBUS, Feb. 12. The general assembly recessed yesterday afternoon to hear the plan of a committee representing Cleveland bankers for financial relief of cities, postponing until today a vote on the Christian Science bill. Amendment of the Smith lay exempting interest and sinking fund charges from the limitations of the Smith one per cent law was urged. Repeal of the present law and giving cities the power to borrow in anticipation of tax levies was commended. For permanent relief the committee suggested and urged the resubmission of an amendment to the constitution providing for classification of property for taxation. The committee did not favor an income tax unless classification Is adopted. A graduated lineal Inheritance tax also was favored. Adoption of a constitutional amendment limiting municipal debt, the submission of proposed bond issues at regular elections and that school boards be divorced from the county budget committees were among other recommendations made. Legislators are having a hard time rooting the teaching of German from the elementary school grades; not because they don't want to do it, but how to do It without prohibiting the teaching of other foreign languages also. The bill by Representative Comings, of Lorain county, which seeks to expel German from the elementary grades, has been up for passage in the house twice, but each time it was found to be in such unsatisfactory condition that it was sent back to the public schools committee for revision. To provide work for the unemployed and as a recognition of the need of good roads, , the. state senate today adopted the resolution by Representative Beetham, of Harrison county, asking congress' to appropriate $1,000,000,000 for road building throughout the nation during the next live years. The resolution has already been adopted by the house. Farmers and stock growers of Ohio who have had claims against the state for three years for animals killed by the state department of agriculture because of prevalence of the "foot and mouth" disease and glanders will soon be able to collect their accounts. The senate today passed the bill providing for payment in full of all the claims aggregating more than $250,000. The 1 bill now goes to the governor for his i signature.

Argonne Forest broke last Noabout 10:30 that at 11:00 o'clock: to know is that up and we are Lieutenant Joseph Connor, who has been in France and JEngland for some time, arrived in Richmond this week. "It's a long tale to tell of my wanderings from Purdue university to Stenay-Meuse, France," writes Wagoner Walter Brookle Miller of 315th Ammunition Train, headquarters detachment, motor battalion, "and now we all want to be back in the Land of the Free and the home of the Ford automobile." "From the time we were doing quick cadences at Camp Mills until we landed at Liverpool on July 17, things were continually happening, slight sub scares, etc. We were In Romsey, South Hampton, Derby, and on our way across the channel saw the Isle of Wight and the castle quite plainly. Landed in Cherburg in France, and then after some wandering stopped at LaFeste, which is on the coast about two miles from Camp Hunt. Stayed there until the middle of October. It was also near LeOoineau, a French winter resort, and we were given passes there once in a while. I was on a mail truck which ran to Bordeaux every day. I went to Bordeaux one day and LeCoineau the next all the time I was at Camp Hunt. "In Bordeaux, which is the second largest city in France, I visited seme of the historical buildings. The dwellings are all low, old and on exceedingly narrow streets. Some of the streets are so narrow that trucks were not allowed to go through them. Visited a couple of cathedrals, St. Mlhicl, and St. Andre. They were wonderful structures and full of beautiful pictres and statary. I went throgh an old chrch built in 1602; but at Romsey, England, we saw an aid church which was built In 936. Ernest Brunson, brother of Orville Branson, or tne Y. M. c.

Farmers Sow Spring Wheat Acreage to Reap $226 Price Set by Congress

(Art bar gear Heutaf Waafclastoa rorrr.po.drnt ot the Chlco TrlkiiBf, analyzes . the agrarian situation in a dispatch to his paper. The article Is reproduced as follows:) 1 WASHINGTON, D. C, Feb. I a TtTli. Ik. " 1 " nnl 12. VV1U1 Ult) cipci w venculatlng that maintenance of a high price of wheat by the government will prevent appreciable reduction of the cost of living for a vear or more, and with de mands for cheaper bread going up from industrial centers, where unemployment is Increasing, congress will be in the midst of a struggle with this economic ' question about the time President Wilson arrives from Europe with millennial plans in his pocket. " From all the agrarian constituencies come the tiding that the farmers, with a bumper winter wheat crop planned, are putting every available foot of soil into spring wheat in order to garner the wartime price of $2,26 a bushel. Acreage of corn oats, and other cereals is being considerably restricted in favor of the more profitable wheat. React In High Meat Prices. It is admitted that short crops of stock feeding grains will make less beef and pork and continued high prices for meats. Some statesmen foresee so large a crop of wheat and so great a drop in the market price that the $1,000,000,000 it is proposed to appropriate will be insufficient to cover the loss to the government occasioned by paying the farmer the guaranteed price and selling the wheat to the consumer at the market price. Other statesmen predict that the foreign demand will be such that the market price will not decline greatly below the guaranteed price, in which event the loss paid by the taxpayers will be small, but bread not much cheaper. Proposals of Relief. Various remedies for the situation have been suggested. One, that spring wheat , which has not been planted, be exempted from the guarantee on the theory that this Is a contract with the farmers which may be canceled like other war contracts now being canceled wholesale. With the guaranteed price applying to winter wheat only, the government loss would be considerably reduced and stock feeding grains would not be sacrificed to wheat. This suggestion finds little support in congress save among representatives without farmer constituents. Another proposal is that the wheat price guaranteed be limited to the acreage ol last year and probably will be offered as an amendment to the $1,000,000,000 wheat bill which it is planned to attach as a rider to the agriculture appropriation bill, with the southern Democrats contemplating a rider to the rider in the shape of a government bonus of $800,000,000 or thereabouts to the cotton planters. "Wheat is the gold standard of has become. There are still thousands of German prisoners working here, and one fellow I was talking to yesterday who had been captured by the Americans in September, said he was certainly surprised to see so many Americans, and so much American material in France, as they had been told that only a few Americans were taking part in the war. Most of these fellows think we are all wealthy because we are from the United States. They express a desire to Immigrate there, which I hope our government will not permit them to do. "We are using quite an assortment of money here in France including English, Italian, French, Belgium, Portugese and Spanish coins. They are mostly similar and it Is very easy to distinguish their values, with the exception of the British, which 13 entirely different. "It seems to have settled down to real winter. It has been quite cold this last week and the ground is frozen the first time since November. I greatly prefer this to the heavy rains we have been having." A HOME MADE GRAY HAIR REMEDY You Can Make at Home a Better Gray Hair Remedy Than You Can Buy. Gray streaked or faded hair is not only unbecoming, but unnecessary. You can darken It without using a dye "Anyone can prepare a simple mixtre at home, at very little cost, that will darken gray hair, and make it soft and glossy. To a half pint of water add one ounce of bay rum a small box of Barbo Compound and M ounce of glycerine. These ingredients can be bought at any drug store at very little cost, or the druggist will put it up for you. Apply to the hair twice a week until the desired shade is obtained. This will make a gray haired person look twenty years younger. It is not a dye, it does not color the most delicate scalp; It is not sticky or greasy and does not rub off." Adv.

grains," said Chairman Lever of the house committee on agriculture. "With wheat unusually , high for peace times and all farmers planting It, there will be a shortage of corn, oats and other grains, which, In turn, will be high priced. This will make stock feeding expensive and the consumer must pay the price. "But I candidly can see no way out of the dilemma. If we paid $2.26 for winter wheat and excluded spring wheat, which as yet is not planted, we would be showing bad faith to the farmers. Also it would be impossible to distinguish between winter and spring wheat In making payments. Buy Back Their Own Wheat "The spring wheat area promises to be the largest in our history. Grazing land never before under cultivation will be planted. . This will entail an enormous loss to the government But I fail to see how it can be avoided. "We know of cases where farmers sold their seed wheat for $2.26 and bought it back for $1.50. As the country uses some 90,000,000 bushels of seed wheat this loss alone to the government is tremendous." "See It Through" Cannon "There is nothing else for the government to do but keep its promise to the farmers," Representative Cannon said. "We guaranteed the price of wheat and the farmers did their share during the war. Naturally the bargain will mean continued high prices for foodstuffs, but " And he shrugged his shoulders.

SMITH, M. D. Uric acid is now generally recognized as the cause of more diseases than was heretofore believed. When the kidneys are out of order uric acid accumulates within the body in super abundance. The disordered kidneys do not filter the poisons out of the blood, as they ought to do, and so the poisons remain in the blood and float around until they find a place to lodge, in form of urate salts. The thing to remember is that you may have rheumatism in any part of the body you may have pains anywhere your back may ache and your head may be dizzy but the trouble is not where the pain appears. The trouble is in the kidneys, and what is the first thing to do ? You must get that excess uric acid out of your system, which can be done by taking Anuric Tablets, the splendid remedy which Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., has put on sale in the drug stores at a low price. Anuric Tablets (made double strength), when taken into the system as medicine, have the peculiar power of dissolving the uric acid deposited there. Drop a bit of sugar or salt into hot water, and it will disappear. In precisely the same way do these Anuric Tablets dissolve uric acid. Of course, after ridding the system of uric acid, it may return again unless you eat the right foods and live tha right kind of life, but Dr. Pierce will advise you fully on proper food and correct living if you write and ask him. He ' makes no charge for such advice. Take Anuric Tablets to-day, by all means, and get that uric acid out of your system. Don't, don't, don't, put the matter off.

Richmond Man Pays tribute to THE INTER-STATE DOCTORS Had been a persistent years with sufferer for Kidney and Bladder Trouble Was promised nothing but the Operating Table. But The Inter-State Doctors gave him quick and permanent relief without the knife, and his mind is so relieved he writes a letter to herald the glad news to a suffering and waiting public. To Inter-state Doctors, those master specialists, who have their office permanently located in Richmond over the Starr Piano Store, cor. 10th and Main, are constantly in receipt of such letters as the following, telling of the great work they are doing, and they are well worth reading: Richmond, Ind., Dec. 20, '18. I want to add my testimony to the many I have seen about The Interstate Doctors, for the quick results I got at your hands, for a most difficult and trying case. I had been an Intense sufferer for several years with a kidney and bladder trouble. And to say I suffered doesn't half express it. My father died from the same trouble by being operated on. Therefore, I became alarmed. No one seem ed to be able to give me any relief. All suggested an operation. But no j operations for me if there is any way j out of it. All that was ever done for j me was to make me suffer worse, un- j tit my wue ana x visuea your orace in Richmond Nov. 15th. You examined me very gently and thoroughly, and much to my surprise, for I had been punished so much. You analyzed my case, told me what could be done, and told me there was no necessity for an operation, etc. In my desperation I was dead willing to try you. And say it was the best day's work I ever done in my life. You relieved me that rfnv an I T nava AntAvlnv rolfnf ever since. So I want the public to know what great specialists you peopie are. I am ready and willing at all times to shout your praise. And the beauty about it was, the absolute relief I got in such a short time. Doctor Culver certainly knows how to go after a case, and I shall always commend your methods and your skill. I am your grateful patient. CHARLES A. STANLEY. Rural Route C. The above testimonial is only one of many received' by the Inter-State Doctors from grateful patients every day.
