MAYOR WORKS WITHOUT
PAY TO CLEAR CITY DEBT
JACKSONVILLE, 111., June 25.
—A few years ago the city of Jack
sonville was “broke.” It was so
crippled- financially its credit
wasn’t good for a 60-cent tele
gram its then chief executive at
tempted to send. Today it has a
credit of many thousand times 60
cents.
The change has been brought
about it is said, by an efficient
business administration given by a
mayor and a city commission who
do not draw a cent of salary for
their work for the city. Jackson
ville has a population of 16,000
and a total taxable property
worth of $12,000,000.

At the last sale there which was

there is an active demand for them,
sered at the coming sale, and good
prices may be expected. The money
derived from the sale will be a
fine thing, especially at this par

MACON CHAMBER BEHIND
BETTER GA. HIGHWAYS
MACON, June 25.—The Macon
Chamber of Commerce has launch
ed a state wide campaign for the
improvement of public highways
and to arouse enthusiasm in a
proposed system of paved roads
which would link together all sec
tions of the state and provide a
means of safe and speedy trans
portation between very city in
Georgia.
Letters have been addressed by
the Macon Chamber of Commerce
today to all chambers of com
merce, boards of trade, civic clubs
and other organizations in the state
urging them t oco-operate with the
Macon institution in the move
ment for better highway transpor
tation.
Charles B. Lewis, President of
the Chamber of Commerce of Ma
con, in the preliminary announce
ment of the highway movement
declares that the project is one of
development to such extent as to
be of far greater service to Geor
gia and Georgians than any other
undertaking which might be con
sidered’at this time.
“This is the most important is
sue before the people of Georgia,”
Mr. Lewis declared, “and an ef
fort will be made to- enlist the co
operation of every civic, commer
uovprziutiS.io [iuu[[nui.i.Bß pun [via
of the State.”
There is such a ‘thing as a man

brains he has to guide him.

tablished in a new world, but would
permit adaptation to rapidly chang
ing conditions. It comes also of
the very erroneous impression or
many nationals that our liberty is a
license, instead of guaranteed free
dom under the law.
Certain functions and responsi
bilities have been imposed upon the
national governrrfent, while others
have been reserved to the state. Be
tween these two there
will always be unavoidably some
thing like a twilight zone.
The problem of concurrent juris
diction is not a new one brought
to us with the eighteenth amend
ment. It is as old as the Federal
government. It has required to be
dealt with by congress and legisla
tures, by executives and by courts,
in a multitude of relations to com
merce, finance, transportation, and
indeed the whole realm of concerns
in our complex society.
“What I am saying must not bo
construed as indicating any relaxa
tion of the national government's
purpose to do its full duty in this
matter. I have no doubt that ifvbe

“There’s nothing better I could
say for Tanlac than that I am
still enjoying the robust health it
gave me three years ago and
haven’t lost an ounce of the thirty
two pounds I gained while taking
the medicine,” recently said Bruce
S. Sosebee, who holds the impor
tant position of assistant overseer
of the carding division of the Jef
ferson Cotton Mills, Jefferson, Ga
“For over a year before I start
ed the Tanlac treatment, I suffer
ed from stomach trouble and chron
ic constipation. My appetite was
so poor that I only wanted a few
mouthfuls at mealtime and when I
forced myself to eat more than
this I would always suffer from
cramps and gas on my stomach.
My liver was sluggish, too, and I
upon the national authority the
Federal government will, not only
under this administration but under
whatever others may come in the
future, assume and discharge the
full obligation.
“The national government has
been uniformly considerate of the
sensibilities of the states about
their rights and authoritities. But
when a state deliberately refuses to
exercise the powers which the con
stitution expressly confers on it, it
obviously commits itself to a policy
of nullifying state authority, the
end of which we are reluctant to
conjecture.
“Whatever satisfaction there may
be in indulgence, whatever objec
tion there is to the so-called in
vasion of personal liberty, neither
counts when the supremacy of law
and the stability of our institutions
are menaced. With all good in-
majority sentiment of|o
-the United States ha s sought by
to remove strong drink as a curse
upon the American citizen, but ours
is a larger problem now to remove
lawless drinking as a menace to the
republic itself.”
had to take something for this
nearly every day.
“I got weak and run-down, felt
miserable all the time, lost all my
energy, fell off a lot in weight and
was in such a condition generally
that when my arm got gaught in
on® of the machines at the mill
about this time, the shock of l%e
accident just broke me down com
pletely.
“My very first bottle of Tanlac
made a big change in me, and by
the time I finished several bottles
I was eating' like a pig and the
stomach trouble and constipation
were things of tlje past. My liver
acted regularly and I gained in
weight until 1 had passed what
used to be normal weight for me.
Ever since then I’ve been feeling
fine, sleeping like a baby at night
and on the job every day. My
wife has also taken Tanlac and
it benefited her a great deal, too,
she says. Tanlac is the top
when it comes to medicines and
I’ll always praise it.”
Tanlac is for sale by all good
