must be followed sorrow for evil

show of reason and the scientific
method coupled with the speaker's
evident zeal put the familiar Gospel
in a new and interesting light for
the hearers.
“All the culture and education and
moral training of the ages has never
produced a spiritual being" the
speaker said. "Repentance Is a
psychological necessity for the res-

TAX SYSTEM PROGRESSES
Installation of Somers’ Method is
Being Rushed.
Work on the installation of the
Somers’ system of taxation has pro-
gressed to the extent where it is be-
lieved the services of the experts
now engaged here will not be re-
quired after March 1. The key rates
on the several districts have nearly*
all been established and appraisers
are now engaged on measuring up
and fixing the value on individual
lots. The work of the experts who
have been placing the values is re-
ported by William Young represent-
ative of the company as 78 per cent
complete.
The Manufacturers’ Appraisal
Company which is installing the
Somers’ system has been engaged
recently by Corpus Christi and by
Portland Ore. There is also a move-
ment on foot to have a modification
of the system incorporated in the
state constitution. It is recognized
that there are many inequalities in
the state taxes levied on the various
counties. In some of these counties
the land is assessed at a relatively
higher rate than in others so that
the proportionate burden on state
taxes is not equitably distributed.

DEATHS EXCEED BIRTHS
Health Department Gives Vital Sta-
tistics for December.
Statistics compiled by Denny Mc-
Gee assistant secretary of the health
department show that during the
month of December the total num-
ber of San Antonio deaths exceeded
the number of births by only six.
The actual deaths occurring among
San Antonians reached 184 giving
the city a death rate of 14.72 per
1000. During the same period 178
births were recorded.
The total number of burial permits
issued numbered 207 this Including
23 permits for persons who contract-
ed disease elsewhere and died here;
7 for bodies shipped here for inter-
emnt and for 13 persons who died
beyond the limits of the city. Of
the total deaths 27 were among ne-
groes. With reference to sex 115
were males and 92 females.
Eight deaths were attributed to
external tiolence as follows: Two
by gunshot wounds (accidental)
and one for each of the following
I causes: Accidental scalding by es-
Icaping steam homicide by gunshot

LIBRARY WORK STARTS
Addition to Structure Will Include
Several Rooms.
Work has been started on the Car-
negie Library improvements. These
improvements consist of a children’s
room across the south side of the
interior upstairs a special magazine
room and a room to the west of the
children’s room especially reserved
for club meetings. This room will be
known as the teachers’ room and
will contain a special reference li-
brary of value to teachers.
Plans for the improvements have
been considered for some time and
the work which has just been started
will be completed promptly. The
room for the children on the south
side of the building will be much
more comfortable and better lighted
than the room on the north that has
been used hitherto. With a regular
ntendant in charge-of the magazines

OFFICIALS SEEK TO
CENSOR CIRCULARS
Claim Public Deceived by
Statements in Patent Med-
icine Packages.
WASHINGTON. D. C. Jan. 15.-
The government’s right under th<
pure food law of 1906 to censor cir-
culars enclosed in packages of medi
cine on the market is to be passed
upon by the Supreme Court.
Department of Agriculture offi-
cials claim that the public is being
deceived every day by exaggerated
i statements of the efficiency of noa-
| trums to effect all kinds of mira-
cles. They claim that the pure food
law wa.s enacted to wipe out this
evil.
Manufacturers of medicines
however contend that the pure food
law merely authorized government
। officials to see that labels are put
. on medicines and did not confer any
' authority over circulars enclosed in
। packages.
The dispute between the govern-
ment and the manufacturers came
to a sharp issue in Omaha. Neb. re-
cently when the government seized
thirteen cases of patent medicine.
Each package contained the state-
ment on an enclosed circular that
"we know it has cured and that it
will cure tuberculosis" and a fur-
ther statement that "it effec-
tive as a preventative of pneumo-
nia.’’ The federal district court of
Nebraska held that the medicine
was misbranded under the pure food
law. The manufacturer has appealed
to the Supreme Court on the ground
that the pure food law deals with
labels and not circulars and further-
more that the law as interpreted by
the Nebraska court is unconstitu-
tional insofar a s the court held that
• the law sought to give the govern-
ment a right tn pass on opinions as
; to the curative effect of medicines.

WOOL GROWERS
MAKE m
ON NEW LAW
Placing Product on Free List
Meets With Strong Dis-
approval.
SAY PRODUCERS SUFFER
Hagenbarth. President of As-
sociation. Asserts Act Was
Written Hastily.
SALT LAKE CITY Utah. Jan. 15.
' —The new’ tariff placing wool on the
j free list was held up to criticism
I when the delegates of the National
I Woolgrowers’ Association marked
the fiftieth year of the association's
existence at their annual conven-
tion here today.
The address by the president of
the organization Frank J. Hagen-
barth pointed out that for the "third
time in a century of national prog-
ress the flockmaster faces free and
unlimited competition in the produc-
tion of wool against the whole
world" that previous experiences
had proven the woolgrowers' inabil-
ity to withstand the shock and that
the outcome of the present experi-
ment was doubtful.
’The flockmaster is reduced" he
said "to the necessity of striving on
unequal terms with the half-clad
savage of South Africa and Asia the
peon of South America and the
skilled producer of New Zealand
and Australia whose flocks are
shorn under the fostering care of
their respective governments. Like
Napoleon after the battle of Water-
loo the shepherd faces the neces-
sity for organizing his broken bat-
talions for a last stand against
hopeless odds. However it is an
American characteristic never to say
quit"
Alignment Against the West
In analysis of the tariff he de-
clared that it was "decidedly an al-
ignment of the East and South
against the West" and asserted that
$0 per cent of the products of New
Jersey would be found on the duti-
able list whereas but 9 per cent of
the products of Arizona and 12 per
cent of the products of Nevada were
so favored.
“The backbone of the strength of
the nation is the producer" he con-
tinued. "The producer is the farm-
er or the miner. He w’ho takes
from the soil of the earth and the
waters thereof and who takes from
the sky with its sun and Its air and
from these primary elements brings
wealth into the world is alone en-
titled to the kingly title ‘Producer.’
The rest of mankind either directly
or indirectly are parasites living
off the fruits of his labor. Yet the
underlying principle of the present
tariff act has been to favor the man-
ufacturer and middleman on the
theory that the producer is able to
take care of himself. In other w’ords.
the parasite is more important than
the body on w hich it feeds.
Says Act WriUen Hastily.
"As a further criticism of the tar-
iff act of October 3. 1913 the state-
ment can conservatively be made
that after all. it was written hastily
and with improper preparation and
informati<|n. The labors of Messrs.
Underwood and Clark and their as-
sociates in the preparation of a con-
sistent tariff act which covered a
year or more of unremitting toll
were hurriedly dispensed with when
Mr. Bryan and Mr. Wilson came into
power and write ‘free wool free su-
gar and free cattle' in place of the
paragraphs that had been prepared
theretofore by Mr. Underwood.
These changes were arbitrarily made
and without rhyme or reason as
pertaining to the balance of the bill. 1
Under the new law’ the grower of
Merino wool will be seriously hurt
and most likely eliminated from the
ranks of American Industry. The
mutton producer may be able to sur-
vive hut even this is problematical
at this time.
"After all" he added ‘‘the toad
of adversity may yet bear a jewel
In Its head. The misfortune that
has come upon us may prove a bless-

TESTIMONY THAT CANNOT
BE DOOBTED
I wish to testify to the good that
your Swamp-Root did me. I was
bothered with Kidney trouble and
lame back for some three years; had
taken medicine from several doctors
but without effect. I finally tried
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root and after
taking three bottles was completely
I cured. I have also recommended it
to several friends who have been
completely cured of kidney and blad-
der trouble. In one case a friend of
mine in Toledo took two bottles of
Swamp-Root which dissolved a
stone in his bladder. He has not been
troubled since. Also a friend in
Springfield Ohio* who was employed
at the Springfield Metallic Casket
Company was completely cured of
kidney trouble after taking Swamp-
Root. I give this testimonial unsoli-
cited for it may be the means of
helping some one else.

ing in disguise by calling our more
serious attention to proper breeding
to more economical methods to bet-
ter preparation of mutton and wool
for market to the proper market-
ing of these products and to suitable
national and state legislation."
American Breeders Behind.
He suggested that the American
bredeers were behind their competi-
tors in New Zealand. Australia and
the Argentine. "Where our flock-
master” he said "imagines that
$lOO per head for the right sort of
breeding rams will ruin him the
foreigner will readily pay from $lOOO
to sspoo for individual animals of
rare merit."
He pointed out that western flock-
masters lost an average of nearly
two cents a pound on all the wool
they grew by branding sheep with
insoluble materials when chalk
would answer the purpose.
A "pure fabric law" along the lines
of the pure food act was advocated.
He said*
“This period of extreme solicitude
for the consumer would appear to
be the psychological moment for the
passage of a pure fabric law by Con-
gress. We have laws covering pure
foods* pure morals and even pure
beer but the subject of protection
of the public against the use of all
kinds of adulterants In so-called
‘pure wool goods' has found no lodg-
ing place among the statutes of the
nation notwithstanding the fact that
it is notoriously a matter of common
knowledge that at least 25 per cent
of the goods sold as pure wool con-
tain but a fraction of that valuable
staple."
Bounty Law Favored.
His other recommendations for
national legislation included further
use of the national forest lands as
grazing places and a bounty law to
avert an “estimated loss of $15000-
000 a year to the live stock Interests
on account of predatory animals."
He declared that the United States
Department of Agriculture "out of
the millions annually expended on
the farm and field has devoted but
a scanty amount of either funds or
energies to the live stock industry.".
LECTURER FELLS OF
NAPOLEON'S FALL
Describes Career of Emperor
From Coronation to St.
Helena.
The second lecture on Napoleon
Bonaparte taking the great Corsican
from his coronation es emperor of
the French to his lonely death
on St. Helena was given Wednesday
night by Dr. C. W. Seymour at the
Carnegie Library auditorium. The
' hall was filled to capacity and the
closest attention was given the lec-
turer.
Mr. Seymour told of Napoleon’s
attempt to become more than the
emperor of the French and how he
dreamed of a world empire larger
than that of Charlemagne whose
recincarnation Napoleon believed
himself to be. Against Napoleon’s
ambition was drawn up the other
great powers of the world and the
lecturer told of those marvelous
campaigns where Austria was de-
feated again and again. Russia and
Prussia's power broken and Spain
and Portugal converted into fight-
ing dependencies.
Then came the beginning of the
end. the continual blockade against
England the disastrous effects on
the countries of the continent of the
the blockade and th e continued wars
the treason and dissatisfaction In
France and the fatal invasion of
Russia in which over 400000 of Na-
poleon’s soldiers lost their lives and
finally the "colossal joke" of the
powers in deporting Napoleon and
making him emperor of Elba.
He told how Napoleon came back
to France again rose suddenly to
power and as suddenly fell on the
fatal field of Waterloo. The end 1
was St. Helena and a lonesome grave
tar away from France. Dr. Sey-1
mour told how many years after-1
wards Napoleon’s ashes were brought
hack to France and burled with
great solemnity.
The next lectures will be upon
Joan of Arc and Richard Coeur de
Lion.
