a year and this measure is now-
ready for Governor Robertson's sig-

would hike the salary of the secre-

Senator Frank Carpenter who re-

FAMOUS HEALTH RESORT

Nervous and Run-down People Can
Now Obtain Relief Without Go-
ing to Health Resort.
People used to travel to a popular
health resort when they were ner-
vous thin. weak. rnn-fluvn nrnl foil-
tired all the time. There they found
k'1 physician whose fame had spread
r .: and wide for the remarkable
- iccess that he had in treating just
that kind of people.
And the secret of his success was
a tonic that he prepared for his pa-j
PROVOKES DEBAT
iK'iits according to ins own tormina
which taken according to his direc-
tions gained for him his popular-
i : y.
This same tonic is now obtainable
by the public generally under the
name of R 1C1 l-TO.N F.'w ith full di-
rections on each bottle If you suf-
fer from bad health and need a
building tonic you need not travel
to tthet health resort for you can
. take this treatment at home.
One well-known lady who was un-
der the care of three eminent physi-
cians and who had been in a san-
itarium on several occasions and
had been operated on without bene-
fiting her general health found it
necessary to take only one bottle of
Rich-Tone to find full relief.

he said "and I have every hoye that
a measure satisfactory to" all will be
agreed upon. If as finally passed
it does not suit me in view of my
belief that the responsibility for the
success of this movement rests up-
on my shoulders I will not submit
it to the people" he concluded.
A finance commission composed
of the governor the state highway
commissioner and three others to
be named by the governor would
direct the road program if Hoard's
resolut:oii passes. The highway
commissioner and the other three
numbers of the commission i-n-iM
receive an annual salary of ;4000 j
All advisory commission of twen-
ty men would serve with the active
commission and each county would
have an advisory board of three
members according to tlie senate
measure.
Itonds would be offered to the
people of Oklahoma for thirty davs
before being placed on the open
market accorring to one of the pro-
visions of the bill. Interest would

The automobile tax five-sixths
of the gross production tax and an
ad valorem tax if necessary to make

The bonds would be issued as fol-
lows: First year. $6000(11)0; ser-

the form of a concurrent resolution
and is proposed as an amendment

FOB COLDS AND GRIPPE
l'hysicians and druggists are elat-
ed over the fact that they have at
last found a genuine and depend-
able remedy for colds sore throat
and la grippe. For years they have
depended chiefly upon the old style
calomel which is certainly line but
unfortunately many people would
not take it because of its nauseat-
ing and dangerous qualities.
Xow that the pharmaceutical
chemists have perfected a nausea-
less calomel called 'Calotabs" w hose
medicinal virtues are vastly improv-
ed the doctors ami druggists are
claiming that Calotabs are the ideal
remedy to abort a cold over night
ami cut short an attack of sore
throat or la grippe. They are also
rinding it most effective as the rirst
step in the treatment of pneumonia.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow of water
that's all. Xo salts no nausea nor
the slightest interference with your
eating or your work and pleasure.
The next morning your cold has
vanished and your whole system is
purified and refreshed. Calotabs are
sold only in original sealed pack-
ages; price thirty-five cents. Your
druggist recommends and guaran-
tees them by refunding the price if
you are not delighted. adv.
FEDERAL ACTION TO
RAISE PRICE OF RAW
COTTON IS PROPOSED
Washington Jan. 24. Federal ac-
tion to maintain higher rates for
raw cotton was urged in the house
by Representative Het'lin of Ala-
bama who did not advocate any
specific program but asserted the
price should be not less than thirty
cents a pound.
" The .New York Cotton Exchange
beat down the cost of cotton one
day last week that meant a loss of
SSS.IIOO.Oiii) to the producers" de-
clared Mr. Het'lin. "It was due to
manipulation. The consumer will
not be benefitted by the lower price
for the sale of cotton goods have
been made on a price contemplat-
ing ;i much higher price for raw-
cotton than now obtains.
"The producer is being robbed
and a report was sent out that the
federal reserve banks were going-to
call in all loans on cotton. This
the federal reserve board denies. It
is a group of spinners including
some foreign ones who want to get
the cotton out of the hands of the
producer and speculate on it."
Cotton prices will be advanced
Mr. Hcflin added because the
world cotton supply is 6000.000
bales short lie charged that specu-
lators wish to gain control of the
product and raise the prices. He
predicted a price of 40 cents a
pound bv (ulv.

POWER OF SOLDIERS' 1
COUNCILS IN GERMANY '
Heme Switzerland. Jan. 24. Un-j
der the new regulations relative toi
control of lb. German army the1
power of ihe soldiers' councils will
be greatly diminished. The Prussian ;
minister of war will through the'
army officers be charged with re-1
sponsibility for the employ mem and'
leadership of his men. lie will be
supreme chief of the army and he!
alone will have power to promote-
ottieets and soldiers.
Soldiers' councils will be formed
by all garrisons regiments or bat-
talions 10 watch over the activities
of officers and see that military
authority is not used against the
government. They must be consult-
ed as to permanent regulations rela-
tive to feeding the troops the grant-

yond that they are under strict limi-
tations. KERR WOULD HAVE
COUNTY MANAGERS
Oklahoma City Jan. 24 Appli-
cation of the managerial plan to tlie
conduct of county business is pro-
posed in a bill prepared by Sena-
tors S. L. Johnson and F. M. Kerr
which was introduced in the senate
yesterday afternoon.
I'nder the proposed plan the
county commission as now consti-
tuted would be eliminated. There
would he only one county commis-
sioner who would be elected at
large in the county and who vir-
tually would he a county manager.
He would devote all of his time to
the work.
There would be also an ex-offi-cio
board of which the commissnon-
er would he cha rman and three
other elective officers members.
The county clerk county treasur-
er and county assessor probably
would be members of the board.
RAILROADS MAY NEED
$00000000 FOR YEAR
Washington Jan. 24. The sum
which congress will be asked soon
to appropriate as an addition to
the railroad administration revolv-
ing fund may be as much as $700.
0(K)000 it w'as learned today. Di-
rector General Hines had indicated
that $500000000 would be the mini-
mum but investigation of budget
needs for immediate improvements
this year now show that half a bil-
lion dollars probably will not be
enough for all purposes.

Tlie population took the matter
calmely even good Maturely and

Russia who is in London was sur-
prised when told today that the
allies had invited the bolshevists of

others so that all may be mad."
lie said the only way to settle the
Russian problem was to overthrow
the bolshevist rule and stated that
if the allies would supply guns and
munitions patriotic Kussians
would do it.
