In tho Senate.

Johnston's house bill, fixing witness
fees in civil actions at So and mileage
at cents, was indefinitely postponed
in the senate Wednesday, by recon-
mendation of the senate judiciary COM
mittee.
A petition from Douglas and Okano-
gan counties was read, asking that they
be combined in one judicial district and
divorced from Lincoln county.
On the call for reports of committees,
a number of unimportant or conflicting
bills were reported on adversely, and
generally ordered indefinitely postponed
by the senate.
The session of the senate was very
short and an early adjournment was
taken.

A SOLID BASIS.

Gold is solid basis of financial transac-
ton, and for business that's the best thing
for us. 1t is SO in the physical conditions. If
by some carelessness or exposure to sudden
cold the muscles of the back are contracted
and stiffened, we have at once lumbago, or
lame back, sometimes called ''crick in the
back" which is disabling and units all
all who have it for any activity. Now. to
get back to a solid basis of health and
strength, ST. Jacobs Oil should at once be
nsed to relax the twisted muscles and re-
store to their natural condition. 1t takes
but short time to perform the cure and
the cure is certain. The back is then ON
solid basis for strength and work, and moth
ing will bring about the change like this
great remedy for pain.

HOUSE AGAINST TRAPS.
The Bill Abolishing Them Went Through
the Lower Branch.

The Bill Abolishing Them Wont Through
the Lower Branch.
After discussion lasting nearly the
entire day, the house late Wednesday
afternoon passed the substitute house
bill, by Hansen, Edwards and Day,
abolishing fshtraps, poundnets, weirs,
fishwheels, pursenets and other fixed
appliances, and providing that only
setnets, gillnets and seines shall be
used within the public waters over
which the state of Washington has ex-
elusive or concurrent jurisdiction. The
minority report, which merely pro-
hibited traps in fresh-water streams and
within four miles of the mouths there
of, was indefinitely postponed by a
vote of So ayes to II noes, several MEM
bers voting for its defeat under the i'm
preston that the remaining bill would
be amended to permit traps to remain
in Puget sound. After the minority
bill was killed, however, the majority
arbitrarily refused to permit any such
amendments to be made to the Hansen
Edwards-Day bill, and it passed just
as presented by vote of 80 ayes to %
noes.
The bills introduced in the house are:
By Powell, to prevent adulteration OF
candies; Powell, relating to chattel
mortgages; Williams, providing for
compulsory arbitration and award; Will
liams, providing for verifcation of
claims presented to administrators OF
estates of deceased persons; Williams,
providing for the manner of commence
ing civil actions; Barlow, prohibiting
the sale of liquor on state university
grounds; RAIDER, repeating the law
creating the state board of land COM
missioners; Canutt, relating to tele-
phone and telegraph companies; Phelps,
making an appropriation for state
wagon road; Phelps, reducing the sal
aries of county officers; G. w. Baker,
to prevent spread of diseases among
sheep; Roberts, relative to county
printing; ]. M. Edwards, to establish a
board for examination of surveyors; @.
P. Bush, relative to exemptions of per-
sonal property; Mitchell, to prohibit
the adulteration Of honey; Moore, re-
lating to Improvements on school lands;
Couch, providing for connecting lines
between railroads; Hansen, to prevent
wagering on elections; DeMattos, pro-
tecting food fishes; Roberts, relating to
payment of delinquent taxes; Lusher,
providing for uniform system of COM
mon schools.

The lower branch Of the Legislature
convened Monday morning at 10 O'Clock
and the senate at 2 o'clock in the after
noon.
The house passed several bills, none
Of which are very important. The
greater part Of the days session in the
house was devoted to routine matters.
The senate passed but one bill, the
house bill providing for the appoint
ment Of county sheep commissioners,
and it now goes to the governor for his
approval
The main feature Of the day was the
postponement in the house of consid-
carlton Of the bill abolishing fishtraps,
wheels, etc., and the passage of a reso-
luton in the senate, providing for the
appointment Of three holdover sena-
tors as committee to investigate the
fishtrap question and report at the next
session Of the legislature.
Senators Cole, Dorr and High were
appointed a committee to visit the
school for defective youth and to inves-
tigate the fish industry at the Cascades.
Senator Taylor inquired whether
there would be committee appointed
to investigate the governors charges
against the penitentiary, saying If there
would not, visiting committee should
be appointed in order to get information
necessary for the appropriations desired.
President Daniels replied that COM
mittee to investigate would be ap-
pointed.
Houghton's sugar bill, giving boun-
ty of cent pound for sugar manufac-
tured during three years from sugar
beets, for which at least 81 ton may
be paid, was called up as special Or
der. Houghton made speech for the
passage of the bill, giving an exhaust
i've statement of the industry in other
states, and said he had been assured
that if the bill passed that at least
three factories would be started in the
state at once. After full consideration
the bill was ordered engrOssed.

The State Capital.

The feature of Thursdays legislative
proceedings was the devotion of the Ell
tire morning session of the house to the
consideration of two bills relating to
the seat of government at Olympia.
One measure was the bill of Mohundro,
to provide for the appointment of a
legislative commission to select loca-
ton for state capital, the location to
be voted on by the people at the next
general election. After an animated
debate, participated in by the members
of all political factions the bill was
killed.
Warmers bill for the repeal of the
act of the last legislature providing for
the erection of a $1,000, 900 capitol,
the foundations of which are COM
pleted, passed.
This action of the house is considered
a partial victory for Olympia in the
strife over the capital question. While
it is true that the capitol will not be
completed, as desired by the former
legislative sessions, the summary death
of the measure providing for prelimin-
airy steps to remove the seat of govern
ment may reasonably lead to the belief
that the present legislature will not as.
sist in taking from Olympia it's one
great source of profit. Aside from the
capital question, no work of Importance
was transacted by either branch of the
legislature, except the dismissal of the
senate investigating committee.
that was devoted mostly to routine
business.
Hicks house bill to prohibit capital
punishment was reported back by the
public morals committee, with the rec
ommendation that it be referred to the
judiciary committee. The committee
finds the bill seeks to relieve persons
already condemned, and desires the ad-
vice Of the judiciary committee as to
whether it can be made retroactive.
The senate passed the following house
bills: BY Hansen. to prevent vivisec-
ton and dissection in the schools of
the state, except in medical schools;
Bralow, fixing the salary of the SUI
preme court reporter at s., 900, instead
Of So, 900.

With better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ica1 ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
" removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and Is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
al important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment Of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
led and gives most general satisfaction.
