Fort Rebukes The Politicians The Governor Declares He Will Not Bit Quietly and Permit Any Attempt to Run the Legislature by Outside Advi; :.' . Tre: . N..- J.r Feb 25 Governor Fort j out an Interview which was intended as, a reply to the published, accounts of the meeting of the Repub lican Btato committee in Newark, when a committee was appointed to keep in touch with the legislature and watch legislation. Governor Fort displayed some feeling in the matter, and this Is what he-said: "I regard the action of the state committee as a gratuitous reflection upon the governor and tho legislature. Every senator or member I have seen has expressed himself of the same opinion. The people of the state elect ed the governor and the members of the legislature to represent thera at Trenton and not a partisan commit He. There Is not the least Jack of har mony between the governor and the legislature, either in the senate or the house none whatever, and those who pretend that there Is are simply doing It to excuse their i '"lion in a course which every man vho has any self respect must resent. Neither the r,or ernor cor tho legislature needs their help, and a3 for myself, while I will gladly confer with any one on any public question, I do not propose to sit nulctly by and permit any aUempt to run the legislature by outside and un solicited advice. When the legislature Ends itself rot competent to do its work they will no doubt call In help, but until they do I shall support them In their opinion that they are able as yet to attend to the business of the state." The governor also made . another statement In which he said he would not make any further nominations for o!Ke except fn rases of actual va cancy until the financial situation In the state.ha.) been satisfactorily set tled. He also sai l he was hoping to see the legislature abolish many of fices. Including county boards of tax ation. Social fur.ctiors of winter, midnielt i nchr, )fm cf elf p teil cp the ht-ltb.

Don't Be Misled. The retail druggist of this country, as (if sf, tic tttcd for theii 1 :;.li standard of intelligence and honorable dealings, but it is a well known fact that occasion ally you will find one who will try tosell you something else when you call for a remedy of estublishep reputation. He forgets that your health is more impor tant than his pocketbook. For example, when you ask for Dr. Kilmer's 'Swamp Koot Remedy, don.t let any dru-gist, drug clerk or store keeper persuade you into buying some thing else in its place. Every time he suoceeds in selling you a worthless sub stitute he makes more profit, but you are humbugfed at the expense of your health. For many years we have watched with much interest the remarkable record maintained by Dr, Kilmer's Swamp Koot. From the very beginning, the proprietors hod so much confidence in it that they invited every one to send for a free sample bottle so that people could judge of its great curative value in even the most distressing cases of kidney, liver or bladder troubles. On onothcr page of this paper you will find a few of the letters, prompted by feelings of heartfelt gratitude, that are constantly coming to Dr. Kilmer & Company. No one one can coubt such sincere and honest testimony. Swamp-Koot is prepared only by Dr. Kilmer & Company. Laboratories, Hinghamlon, N.
