Now that the legislative bill to pro
hibit the immodest use of the female
tace and form in advertising is ad-
vanced to third reading it seems high
time for somebody to throw a protect
Ing arm around the quiyering sensibili-
ties of millions of men who have been
outraged by indiscriminate displays Of
the male figure for the base purpose of
helping on the sale of malt extracts,
bitters and other things supposed to be
necessary to the well being of man.
What is more disagreeable to a gentle
man whose own limbs are knobby and
bias than to see an Apollo Belvedere
depicted on every billboard to catch
the admiring glances OF brazen people
of the opposite sex? If the male fig
ures must be shown in advertisements.

The time seems to be approaching
when the various trusts will have a
complete grip upon the nation. At
present only eleven commodities are
outside the pale of the voracious mon
ster which threatens to do to the coun-
try what the blighting insect does to
the grain fields of the farmer. With
the power of combined capital the
trust octupus is attacking the very
basis of the country's institutions, and
taking away, we might say, the right
of the common people to exist unless
they go to the exacting trust and pay
its exacting price for the necessaries
of life

Coroners OF the state of Illinois will
present to the legislature this session
a bill for an act making it misde-
meanor for any person to remove the
body of a person meeting unexpected
or violent death from the spot where
It is found, except for the purpose OF
transferring the corpse to the nearest
suitable shelter for protection from
weather or conditions of traffic. The
amendment is aimed at the Chicago
police and the undertakers who have
had the benefits of the police system,
which permitted the removal of the
body to the nearest undertaking es-
tablishment. Under the proposed bill
the coroner, on his arrival at tho
place where the body is, after exami-
nation, is obliged to order 1t taken
to a morgue, and after the inquest to
turn the body over to friends, or, IN
the event no friends appear, to have it
buried at county charge. This provi-
sion is intended to stop the practice,
said now to prevail among undertake
ers, of preparing the body for burial
as soon as it comes to their possession
and then insisting upon payment by
friends.

There will be no racing at Washing

as about gambling. The officials might

If it loses the revenue from the book

Messrs. Keith, Bamberger and Fer
guson returned from their trip to the
northwest yesterday morning where
they had been to look over the proper
ties in which they are interested and
sto size up conditions prevailing gen
orally in that lively section.
Mr. Bamberger reported work pro
crossing and the mill running steadily
at the Bellevue and said they hoped
soon TO resume operations at the Viz
ginia Consolidated, which has been
idle for some time on account of the
trouble experienced with water.
No deals had been made during
their absence, Mr.. Banlberger said, but
some splendid mines were being opened
up at different points and he believed
the whole section had a great future
before it. The gentlemen spent a
week in the vicinity of Baker City and
