THE "BOYS" WILL NOT
HAVE TO GO DRY

CALL. HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO. March Although something
of A temperance body, the Senate has no
desire to stand in the way of any little
refreshment a candidate may be willing
to deal out during hot campaign, and
with that end in view the Senators hit
with their ak the bill introduced III the
Assembly by Caminetti which aimed a
blow at the ancient and honorable Gus
tom Of treating the boys.
Shortridge was the one who felt the worst
about it, He said there We're some towns
in this State where a candidate could not
get a vote unless he went into every sa-
loon in the place. The bill simply puts
a premium on lying" he declared. "A
candidate will not tell the truth on a sub
iect such as this, and l wouldn't blame
him if he did not l won't respect that
bill if it is passed. I'll do as l please with
nv money. I'll spend it in a saloon or
wherever else please I'm q and [ can
spend my own money without asking the
advice of this Legislature.
Wolfe described the bill as 1dlot1c and a
measure that should never pass. 1t hit
Braunhart in a tender spot, too, for he de-
clared the bill would injure one of the
principal industries of his district, for 1t
robbed him of the StatesmanS privilege
of buying steams, sharp and cool, for his
constituents.
The Senate thought that was too much
and showed the bill under a shower of
noes among which there was not even
the suggestion of a notice to reconsider.
