THE CEDARVILLE HERALD KARLH BULL — — — •EDITOR AND PUBLISHER Entered at the Post Office, Cedarville, Ohio, October 31,1887, a* gecwal class matter, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1920 BIG BLUNDER IN AMENDMENT CAMPAIGN One of the oldest things Ohio possesses is the uniform rule of taxation. It has served for years and probably 'is now as much out of harmony with existing conditions in the state as the horse and cart. We are convinced that most people will I agree that we need some new form of taxation, but what plan ' should be adopted is the mooted question. Every few years a plan of some kind is proposed and the voters will be called upon to make a decision again this coming election. A limited form of classification with a fixed limit of tax rate on real estate is the basis of the proposed plan. Whether this plan is perfect or what will suit the majority of the people, no one will know until after election returns are tabulated. ' There are some good arguments for the classification plan and some strongly endorse the • fixed limit of one and one half mills on real estate, but the complaint is that the rest of the legislation covering the whole tax scheme is left to the legisla­ ture to muddle with each session. The campaign is waxing warm both for and against the proposal. The injection of the Farm Bureau and Donahey ai’gument has stirred farmers who are not lining up on the proposition at this time. The supporters of the classification plan are facing a tremendous task in any effort to overcome the damage created by the controversy, Farmers are now openly criticising the Farm Bureau for representing they favor the proposed plan. Their claim is that they have never been asked for an expression and any representation Palmer, Lincoln and Dyer make is only as officials of the Farm Bureau, and not rep­ resenting the direct sentiment of the Bureau membership. Farmers in particularly are resenting the action of the farm " leaders. ’’ ■ Those in charge of the .campaign have much.to do to repair the damage already done, if it can be repaired. This much is certain Messrs, Palmer, Lincoln and Dyer must fade from the picture for Ex-Governor Donahey in his speech has caused not . only farmers but town people as well to believe the proposal has a “ dark man in the wood pile.” RHEUMATISMAND j NEURITISYIELD | TONEW KONJOLA Grateful Lady, 78, Tell* of Her Happy Experience With Modem Compound NOTICE TO NON-RESIDENT PROPERTY OWNERS TAKING CENSUS TO BE REAL JOB Probably few people realize the enormous task it is for Uncle Sam to count noses for in 1930 the next census will be taken. Listing some 120 million people and getting something of their history looks like an impossible task but the Census Bureau is manned for a big job and next year it must be com­ pleted .in one month. We are.tpld that back in the time of King David it took nine months and twenty days to count 1,300,000 “ valiant men that drew the sword.” The first census taken in this country was in 1790 and it required thirteen months to find four million people. - Every political subdivision will be listed separately and we have 3,100 counties in this country with 17,000 incorporated cities and villages. In addition, there are 45,000 townships These various subdivisions will be laid off in enumeration dis­ tricts which will total about 100,000. According to government records the population has been increasing about 1,400,000 each year, this being the excess of births over deaths. There are about 240,000 more immigrants over emigrhtiats. It is estimated that the population this next census will be thirty times greater than in 1790 and nearly twice what it was in 1890. In 1790 there were only six cities having 8,000 population or more. In 1920 we had 924 of such cities which was 44 per cent of the entire population. The new censUs will probably show a much largep growth for cities than for the rural sections. 4 A NEW PENALTY FOR WRECKLESS DRIVING What is to be done with the wreckless driver on the high "“way has been a problem that it yet unsettled. Some have taken the view that each state should have compulsory liability in­ surance for all automobile drivers. This has been tried in Massachusetts but has been a failure. New York is trying out a new, law that has just recently gone into effect and it will be watched .with interest. The law provides that where a motorist causes an accident he must pay all, judgments and provide a bond, or insurance policy against future judgments before again being permitted to drive, if-he cannot give bond he must be denied a license. ' i, .' With such a law as this the careful,'competent motorist has nothing to fear for the financial burden is placed on those Who are ,wreckless. Those financially able have always paid for such damage, but so frequently accidents have happened where all blame was on some person who was not financially responsible for his own damage brought about by wreckless ness. The Continued increase of motor accidents and the great loss of life each year is going to force drastic legislation on the wreckless driver. The New York idea looks fair but of course the law must be given a trial to await results. SENATOR G. M, KUMLER MAY ENTER AGAIN * Press reports this week indicate that Senator G. M. Kumler of the Lewisburg, Preble county, Leader, will probably" run again for the Ohio Senate from the Dayton district, Preble anc Montgomery counties. If there is anything in recognition of the worth of outstanding service to the district and to the state, Senator Kumler is deserving of even his sixth term, should he acceed to the call of his constituants. The Senate is a very im­ portant branch of our legislature and it must be said that Sena­ tor Kumler have never at anytime been the tool of special inter­ ests in seeking legislation. His public life has been as open anc as honorable as his private life and his service to the state a record of many accomplishments. At present he is Chairman of the Senate finance committee, on of the: most important as­ signments to be given. The state has profited by his long ser­ vice and it is to be hoped that he will again consent to offer his name for the honor of representing his district.

LEAH BASHOR “ For several years I was a victim of stubborn rheumatism and neuritis,” said Mrs, Leah Bashor, 2335 Newport avenue, Dayton, Ohio. “ I was sub­ ject to dizzy spells and once when one of these- spells came over me I fell, and was confined tp m'y bed for 13 weeks. I had just about* come to the conclusion that there simply was ho relief for me. “ I heard of"the wonderful things Konjola was doing for others and de­ cided to give it a chance. After a short treatment the rheumatism and neuritis disappeared; I am continu­ ing With Konjola and know that in a short time all my whole system will be regulated and back to normal. I' am grateful for the new health Kon­ jola brought me, apd am glad to recommend a medicine o f its merit.” Konjola is sold in Cedarville, Ohio, at Prowant & Brown drug store, and by the best druggists in all the towns throughout this entire section.
