TERRELL REPLIES TO INQUIRY
REGARDING LIQUOR LICENSES
A ust ill, Tex -Controller Terrell
Thursday, in answer to inquiries from
county tax collectors asking if they
have authority to issue licenses to
wholesale liijuor dealers, sent the fol-
lowing:
"This office has no jurisdiction over
the wholesale liquor dealers. Your at-
tention, however, is directed to chap
ter 23, acts of the fourth called session
of the tblrly-flfOt legislature, prohibit-
ing granting of licenses to liquor deal-
ers except in incorporated towns and
cities."
Controller Terrell said tlier:* was a
question iu his mind as to whether
the law referred to in his telegram ap-
plies to wholesale liquor dealers The
law prohibiten the issuance of licenses
to "any liquor dealer ' It does not
say retailer or wholesaler In consc
quence the controller w leave that
question up to the county lax collector
to decide.
The controller had advices i hurs
day that the county t.i\ collector ot
Williamson county had issued a li

The prespleiit sn\s that nothing enn

thing unsaid.

The president's reply, which was

! that on her solemn assurance of ac
cepttinee of the terms laid down hy
him in his recent addresses, he cannot
decline to take up with the govern-

Points Way to Peace.
The president's message clearly

the German note of every vestige of
hypocrisy that camouflaged It. The
president reiterates that there can he
llo peace with autocracy save the
pence that conies on the heels of nil-
I conditional surrender. That point is
made perfectly plain.
Furthermore, the president dot s, us

if those governments are disposed to

Don't take nasty, dangerous calomel wlieri l>i!i' u.s,

Calomel makes you sick ; you lose a
day's work. Calomel Is quicksilver
and It salivates; calomel Injures your
liver.
If you it re bilious, feel lu7.y, slug-
gish and nil knocked out, If your bow-
els are constipated and your head
aches or stomach Is sour, Just take a
spoonful of harmless Dodson's Liver
Tone instead of using sickening, sali-
vating calomel. lMdson'.* Liver Tone
is real liver medicine. You'll know it
next morning bccnjise you will wake
up feeling fine, your liver will be work-
ing, your headache and dizziness gone,
your stomach will he sweet and bow-
els regular. You will feel like work-
ing. You'll he cheerful; full of vigor
and ambition.
Your druggist or dealer sells you a
bottle of Hudson's Liver Tone for a
| few cents under my personal guaran-
tee that It will cleun your sluggish
liver better than nasty calomel; II
won't make you sick and you cun eut
anything you want without being sali-
vated. Your diuggist guariintet 4 that
each spoonful will start your liver,

"Spokes"—
and the Swift
" Wheel
What would you consumers think
of a wheel without spokes?
What would you think of a man
who would take any or all of the spokes
out of a wheel to maUe it run better?
Swift & Company's business of
getting fresh meat to you is a wheel,
of which the packing plant is only the
hub, Retail dealers are the rim—and
Swift & Company Branch Houses are
the spokes.
The hub wouldn't do the wheel
much good and you wouldn't have
much use for hub or rim if it weren't
fir the spokes that fit them all together
to make a wheel of it.
Swift & Company Branch Houses
are placed, after thorough investiga-
tion, in centers where they can be
successfully operated and do the most
good for the most people at the least
possible cost.
Each "spoke" is in charge of a man who
knows that be is there to kee p you supplied
at all times with meat, sweet and fresh; and
who knows that if he doesn't do it, his com-
petitor will.
H')W much good would the hub and the
rim of the Swift "wheel" do you if the spokes
