When Regular Medical Treatment
Failed Dr Williams Pink Pills
Cured Her Rheumatism
Hundreds of people afflicted with i
juacisin iiavo spent years under the care
of excellent physicians in vain Then
they havo settled down to the conviction
that it is fastened on them for life Mrs
Dinsraore was not willing to join the
ranks of the hopeless merely because her
doctor did not know how to help her
Here is her story
Four years ago I suffered greatly
with rheumatism in my hands and
kuees After I hnd been sitting a while
my limbs tjcemed to heavy I could hardly
wakon the first attempt So long as I
Icopfc iuqviug I was all right but just as
soon as I stopped something seemed to
settle in my knees and make them ache
My hands were so bad I couldnt touch
the palms of them on a flat surface they
were swollen nud pained so
Did you call in a physician
I doctored steadily for over a year
thou one doctor said Yon have taken
medicine strong enough to kill almost
anything Still it did not kill mo nor
tho rheumatism
How then did yon get rid of it
At different times I had rend in vari
ous publications about Dr Williams
wonderful Piuk Pills for Pale People
and I finally decided to try them I took
them steadily for four mouths in ac
cordance with tho directions By that
time I was completely cured
Havo you been free from it ever
einca
Sinco then I have had but one slight
return of my trouble and a box or two of
tho same pills made me all right again
Mrs F A Dinsmovo lives in hearty
enjoyment of her recovered health at
Woborn Mass entirely freed from the
grave anxieties that rheumatism always
brings When it appears in but a single
joint it shows that the blood is in a faulty
state in tho whole body It may at any
moment break out elsewhere and one of
the dangers is that it may break out in
tho heart and then tho result must bo
fatal Tho only security is to keep tho
blood all tho time in a perfectly sound
condition
Dr Williams Pink Pills make healthy
blood All other relief is superficial
This is thorough Theso pills aro sold
by all druggists
The Good Old Times
- When Benjamin Franklin took the
coach from Philadelphia to New York
he spent four days on the journey
He tells us that as the old driver
fogged along he spent his time knit
ting stockings Two stage coaches
-and eight horses sufficed for all the
commerce that was carried on be
tween Boston and New York and in
winter the journey occupied a week
Success
Rum Changes Tribe
The Nyam Nyams of the upper Nile
VaHey used to be a very harmless
amiable people whose amusements
jwere to smoke and hold nightly con
certs But rifles and rum changed
them and now a British expedition is
marching to punish them for shooting
at British patrols though what
British patrols were doing in the
Nyam Nyam country is not explained
Value of System
A merchant remarked the

I could not sleep my feet were

I had been troubled in this way
for five years when I commenced to
use Dodds Kidney Pills and what
they caused to come from my kidneys

By the time l had finished one box
of Dodds Kidney Pills I was cured
Now I can sleep well my limbs do

SAFEGUARD JTO PROGRESS
Urges Members to be Cautious
Opportunity to Make Good
Record in Their Hands
To the Members of the Twenty ninth
Session of the Legislature of Ne
braska
Gentlemen It Is a constitutional re
quirement that at the beginning of
your deliberations the chief executive
shall convey to you information by
message of the condition of the state
and shall recommend such measures
as he shall deem expedient
I have but few recommendations to
make In general I may say that the
slate was never more prosperous than
it is today the several executive de
partments were never in better work
ing condition and the institutions are
at the zenith of careful and economical
management Owing to the chance of
politics your membership is chosen al
most entirely from one great party
With this unprecedented1 majority
comes a corresponding responsibility
The dominant party cannot escape the
burden thus laid upon it and it should
he sobered by the thought It is a
time for earnest zealous work it is
a time when state patriotism should
rise superior to personal prejudice and
petty whims it is a time when the
privileges of the few should not be
allowed to take precedence over the
welfare of the man- it is a time for
laying broader and making more secure
the equitable foundations upon which
the state shall continue to rise toward
a condition of future greatness which
we now but faintly appreciate If you
would merit the highest encomium of
praise let your deliberations be dis
tinguished by honesty of purpose
careful research and strict economy
Thus will you protect the public treas
ury and guard against hasty and im
perfect enactments Your motto
should be not how much legislation
but how good
THE REVENUE LAW
The revenue law passed by the pre
ceding legislature has met the expecta
tions of its friends and has been re
ceived with popular favor This infer
ence is fully warranted by the results
of the recent campaign The law be
ing an innovation in some of its fea
tures and having a direct bearing on
the interests of every citizen was nat
urally brought under the searchlight
of public opinion and was made the
target of extreme criticism The agi
tation was helpful in that it gave the
people generally a better understand
ing of revenue problems than they had
previously enjoyed and enabled a more
Jnteligent vote upon the issues in
volved1 The result was such an en
dorsement of the work of the legisla
ture which framed and passed the bill
as has seldom been recorded in the
history of Nebraska Not a single
member who voted for the bill and
who stood for re election this year was
defeated The conclusion is that the
time was ripe for revenue revision
The people understood the inequitable
provisions of the old system under
which the growing state could not
adapt its revenues to its increasing
obligations they appreciated the logic
employed by former executive officers
in challenging public attention by
message and biennial report to the
urgent need of revision they were
cognizant of the non partisan spirit
which entered into the framing of the
new law and realized that the measure
was the product of the best thought
regardless of party which the legisla
ture could command supplemented by
the valuable experience of older states
along similar lines They knew too
that tho two foundation principles
vere the essence of justice namely
the listing of all property for assess
ment purposes at its fair cash value
and the levying of an equitable and
uniform tax upon all property so list
ed without bias or favor
One assessment and one set of levies
have br made under the new law and
we are ow in a position to judge of
results It is apparent that a large
amount of property which hitherto has
been covered and has escaped taxation
entirely has been placed upon the as
sessment rolls and is made to stand
Its just share of the expense of gov
ernment Other property which in the
past has been valued at ridiculously
low figures has been listed at approxi
mately its true worth Tax shirkers
have been brought to time both pri
vate and corporation property have
received their just deserts the grand
assessment roll has bean Increased to
a reasonable sum the state has been
enabled to raise sufficient revenue to
meet the expenses of government eco
nomically administered and in the
transition from the old to the new no
Interest has been injured beyond the
few isolated cases which have been the
victims of mistakes or concerning
which the Judgment of the assessor or
of the levying body may have been
faulty
In some communities the taxes for
this year are considerably increased
over the taxes of last year but an in-

AG
ADDRESS
vestlgation of the facts discloses that
the fault is not with the law but rather
with the local levying bodies which
in making their levies did not take
into proper consideration the increased
valuation upon which they were act
ing
While the essential principles of the
lav are in my judgment eminently
just and correct there are some mat
ters of detail which might he improved
and to these I invite your attention
Under the interpretation placed up
on the law by the state board of equali
zation and assessment it has no power
to differentiate between classes of
property in equalizing county assess
ments It can raise or lower the en
tire assessment roll of the county but
cannot raise or lower one class of
property without reference to the other
classes For this reason it is impos
sible to secure a just equalization for
in raising or lowering one deficient
class to the proper standard other
classes with which there is no fault
are by the unit system raised or low
ered in unison and hence while jus
tice may be secured in the one instance
it is violated In the other I therefore
recommend that Section 130 Article 1
Chapter 77 of the Compiled Statutes
of 1903 be amended so as to permit the
state hoard of equalization to differ
entiate between classes of property in
equalizing county assessments
Another inherent weakness in the
present law is the fact that county
boards of equalization are compelled
to make their levies in advance of the
equalization of the county assessments
by the state board I recommend that
Section 13G Article 1 Chapter 77
Compiled Statutes of 1903 be amended
so that county boards shall make their
levies after the certificate of county
equalization shall have been received
from the state board Also that Sec
tion 130 of the same article and chap
ter be amended so as to provide for
the transmission by the state board
of the certificate of county equaliza
tion to the county clerk at the earliest
date consistent with the general tenor
of the section and that the said county
clerk be instructed to call the county
board together within seven days after
the receipt of said certificate for the
purpose of making the necessary levies
for the ensuing year For the same
reasons the law fixing the time for
making school district and municipal
levies should be amended in harmony
with the above suggestion
STATE BOUNDARY COMMISSION
By act of the last legislature the
chief executive of this state was au
thorized to appoint a commission of
three members to act with a like com
mission appointed by The goernor of
South Dakota in the matter of agree
ing upon a boundary line between the
two states This commicsion met wih
the representatn es of South Dakota
in due time and after repeated- con
ferences and personal inspection an
agreement of the joint commission wits
filed with me March 4 1904 which I
now transmit to you tor approval or
rejection
The preceding legislature also made
provision for a similar commission
to act in conjunction with a commis
sion representing the state of Iowa
However as our enactment was con
tingent upon the action of the Iowa
legislature in providing for a boundary
commission and as the Iowa legisla
ture neglected to take such action
nothing has been done Owing to the
technicalities involved lawlessness
and crime have been fostered in the
disputed territory and the rights of
property owners have been subject to
much annoyance This state of affairs
will continue until relief has been af
forded by the settlement of the bound
ary dispute I recommend therefore
that your honorable body make provi
sion for another boundary commission
the statute of limitation having run
against the old act to co operate with
a like commission from the state of
Iowa in agreeing upon a boundary line
The litigation regarding the bound
ary line between Nebraska and Mis
souri which had been pending in the
supreme court of the United States for
some time was permanently settled
recently by a decifion of the court
fully sustaining the contention of
Nebraska The court fixes the bound
ary line in the center of the old chan
nel of the Missouri river confirming
to Nebraska what is known as Island
Precinct Nemaha county I recom
mend that an anoronriation of 1000
or as much thereof as may be needed
be made for the surveying of the line
and the erection of permanent monu
ments the state of Missouri to meet
its equal share of said expense
THE BATTLESHIP NEBRASKA
On October 7 1904 the battleship
Nebraska was successfully launched
at the yards or the builders in Seattle
Washington The impressive cere
monial was participated in by a num
ber of the executive officers of this
state The Nebraska is one of the
latest and most efficient types of bat
tleships and our state is highly hon
ored by the national government in
being permitted to stand sponsor for
her The remaining work of construc
tion and equipment will occupy about
one year and she will then be ready for
commission At that time it will be
highly proper for our state through its
legislature or unofficially through its
citizens to present to the officers of
the Nebraska for the use of the ship
some practical gift as a token of our

SUPREME COURT COMMISSION
The legislature of 3903 made pro
vision for the temporary continuance
of the supreme court commission six
commissioners to be appointed for the
period of one year and three commis
sioners to be appointed for the period
of two years from April 10 1903 The
court is unable to keap up with the
work which comes before it the num
ber of cases filed each month being
in excess of the number disposed of
It seems imperative that a commission
of at least three members should be
provided for the coming biennium to
the end that the rights of litigants
who are seeking relief may be con
served without unreasonable delay
THE STATES FINANCES
On November 30 1904 the floating
interest bearing indebtedness of the
state as represented by outstanding
general fund warrants amounted to
225338640 an increase during the
biennium of 20405777 This condi
tion was made possible and practically
unavoidable by the operation of the
old revenue law
Wiiile the new law was passed in
1903 it did not become operative until
1904 and it has had no appreciable ef
fect upon the states financial condi
tion With reference to the sufficiency
of the states income during the com
ing biennium I quote from the current
biennial report of State Auditor Wes
ton
To the estimated income fiom the
levies of 1905 G have been added a con
servative estimate of income from back
taxes and a very considerable amount
derived from miscellaneous sources
making the total estimate of income
for the general fund 2S19iM471 As
against this estimated general fund in
come the estimated requirements for
the biennial period commencing April
1 1905 and chargeable to the general
fund amount to 254031 G
From the above it is apparent that
if the present legislature holds its ap
propriations within reasonable bounds
the receipts of tho coming biennium
will exceed the expenditures by 278
928 a condition which has not existed
in Nebraska for many years
With such a state debt as now con
fronts us it requires no argument to
make clear that the strictest economy
consistent with the public weal should
distinguish ail your relations with the
public treasury The opportunity is
most auspicious The state institu
tions were never in better condition
The two preceding legislatures mad
appropriations for permanent improve
ments amounting to a little more than
000000 The result is that needed
buildings and equipments have been
generously provided and the present
legislative body will be expected to do
but little in the way of expenditures
THE LOBBY
The bane of every legislative body
is the subsidized lobby Vicious legis
lation is not the result of ignorance
but is rather the result of prejudicial
influences which ought not to exist
and which certainly ought not o be
tolerated within the halls cloak rooms
or offices of any deliberative body
which lias power over the destiuies of
a people I recommend that such ac
tion be taken as will protect your
membershio from the onslaught of
private and corporation lobbyists who
seek to accomplish pernicious ends by
the exercise of undue influence
LOUISIANA PURCHASE EXPOSI
TION
The legislature of two years ago ap
propriated 35000 for a Nebraska ex
hibit at St Louis and laid upon the
chief executive the duty of appointing
a non partisan commission of three
members upon which should devolve
all responsibility pertaining thereto I
am informed that after paying all ob
ligations there will remain unexpend
ed about 10000 of the original appro
priation This is certainly a most
gratifying condition one which speaks
eloquently of the wisdom and discre
tion which the commission exercised
in the discharge of its duties
LEWIS AND CLARK EXPOSITION
The people of the Pacific coast in
particular are now preparing for the
Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposi
tion an event which will commemor
ate the trials and triumphs of the ex
ploring expedition sent out by Presi
dent Jefferson during the year follow
ing the purchase of Louisiana and
which succeeded in penetrating to the
mouth of the Columbia river in 1S05
FOOD COMMISSION
Tho work of the food commission is
necessarily curtailed by reason of the
fact that the law restricts inspection
to dairy products cider and vinegar
As a consequence the great mass of
food products containing injurious
adulterants escape the jurisdiction of
the commission and are amenable only
to the general statutes The subject
is an important one It seems desir
able that the present lav be broadened
in its scope and made to include all
food products and that provision be
made for such additional assistance as
the enlarged duties may make neces
sary
OIL INSPECTION
The preceding legislature raised the
inflammability test of illuminating oils
from 100 degrees to 112 degrees Fahr
enheit thus affording additional se
curity to life and property Since the
law was made operative it has been
rigidly enforced not a single case hav
ing been reported where oil below the
test has been placed on the market

IRRIGATION
The report of the uecretary r the
state board of irrigation sho at
considerable progress has been made
in irrigation matters during tho last
two years While the number of ew
projects has not been great muck has
been accomplished in the way of im
provement of existing canals and ad
ditional area has been brought under
cultivation The United States recla
mation service has undertaken a large
project which has for its object the
storage of all the flood waters of the
North Platte river and the reclamation
of thousands of acre3 of land in Ne
braska and Wyoming It is hoped this
plan will work to a successful conclu
sion thereby adding a large productive
area to our domain
THE MILITARY DEPARTMENT
The military department has as
sumed a position of much greater im
portance since the enactment of the
present militia law by congress ap
proved January 21 1903 The purpose
of the lau is to recognize and make ef
fective the volunteer force organised
under the title of the national guard
as the reserve army of the nation
In order that tho state may receive
its full quota of assistance and- that
its privileges under the federal law
may materialize a sufficient appropria
tion should be made to carry into ef
fect the designs of the enactment in
sure safety of public stores provide
suitable quarters for company organi
zations and extend encouragement to
the young men who voluntarily as
sume the duties of a soldier duties
that may at any time become arduous
and dangerous in the enforcement of
law and protection of life and prop
erty
EDUCATION
The state views with ever increas
ing pride the progress of its great edu
cational centers the university and
the Pern normal and is looking for
ward to the time when the Kearney
normal will take its place with the
other and will become an important
fat tor in our public school system
HARTLEY BOND CASE
Your attention is called to the suit
of the state against the bondsmen of
former State Treasurer J S Bartley
After more than seven years of litiga
tion the state is without any judgment
against the bondsmen I am informed
that not a single bondsman has a dol
lars worth of property in his owe
name out of which the state could en
force a collection of any part of the
Judgment should cne eer be rendered
Pome of them have already gone
through the bankruptcy court since the
suit was instituted I get this informa
tion from the eoiirt records and from
the last official report to me of Attor
ney General F N Frout in which he
recommends the dismissal of thi case
on the payment of the costs which
have been made by the bondsmen and

cers and state institution I believe
that such an official would prove of
great value to the state and hence I
repeat the recommendation
PURCHASING OF SUPPLIES
I recommend that the purchasing of
all sunnlies for bvth tbe Institute for
the Blind and the Institute for the
Deaf and Dumb he placed in the hands
of the board of purchase and supplies
this being the board which does the
buying for all the other institutions
THE INSANE ASYLUM
The Institute for the Feeble Minded
is in a very crowded condition About
thirty applications are now on file
from those seeking admission and
who are properly entitled to the care
of the state but who are denied en
trance on account of the lack of room
I recommend an appropriation of 20
000 for the purpose of erecting a cot
tage for girls as an adjunct of this
institution
The Norfolk asylum for the rebuild-
of which an anoronriation was
made by the last legislature is near
ug completion but nrobably will not
be ready for the reception of inmates
about the first of May When
the last legislature made oroision for
the rebuilding of the Norfolk asylum
it was believed that the institution
would be completed in at least ten
months of the present biennium Ap
propriations amounting to 54S50
were accordingly made for officers
emplovpes wages and general
expense of maintenance As the build
ng has been delayed no part of these
ippropriations has been used I rec
ommend that 18000 of the mainten
