No political capital can be made out OF
the action OF the House in killing the bill
to punish those who purchase votes. be-
cause the law to that effect, repealed in
1899 was imperative. Few actions were
ever brought under II, and these were in
cited by spite or for blackmail. The law as
il now stands is effective. In several
counties the Democratic managers had
number of vote-sellers by paying them
small amount and promising more, but
taking a receipt. IN Montgomery those
Democratic managers are prosecuting
'.hoaters' whom they trapped. More law
breakers have been brought to justice In
one year under the law Furnishing those
selling their votes than in ten years under
that Furnishing the vote-buyer. Now. If the
old law were In existence the Democrats in
Montgomery county would not be prose-
cutting those whom they have trapped by
their installment plan of bribery. The
wholesale vote-buying In this city is that
of the Taggart regime. In one year $4,000
was wasted on Pogues run to get the
stragglers into line. In 1898 and 1899 several
thousand dollars of the street appropria-
ton was expended just before election to
bring out the Taggart vote. A measure to
punish this sort of vote-buying would be
worthy OF consideration.

ANTITRUST BILL ADVANCED

MENT BILLS CONSIDERED.
Representative GiIlett's Reapportion-
ment Bill-Legislative News
and Routine.

Various matters were considered and dis
posed Of yesterday in the State Legislature.
The work Of the two houses is beginning to
attract attention and the number Of WIS.,
itors is increasing daily. There were SO
many on-lookers in the House yesterday
that Speaker Artman decided that they
were disturbing the members and he ut
tered protest.
The affairs Of the State institutions seem
to be furnishing much opportunity for dis
cussion among the members or both
houses. Bills and resolutions Of different
kinds affecting different institutions have
been occupying the attention Of the legis-
lators for the last few days. Yesterday,
in the House. Representative James in
troduced bill directly affecting the State
Institutions. The bill was introduced in the
morning and later in the day Representa-
tive Whitcomb offered a resolution provid-
Ing for an investigation of the finances of
the Indiana Reformatory at Jacksonville.
III the Senate Mr.. Inman introduced a
resolution calling for an Investigation Of
the Indiana Reformatory, the State Prison
and the Reform School for boys. The reso-
luton was tabled. Lieutenant Governor
Gilbert announced the committee which is
to investigate the charges against the SUI
perintendent Of the Industrial School for
Girls and Woman's Prison. Numerous
new bills were introduced in both houses
and some measures were up for second
reading. Among these was Senator Ag-
Eews antitrust bill, which was advanced
to engrossment.
In the House the bills amending the In
dianapolts street improvement laws were
uD as special order of business in the
morning and in the afternoon the report of
the elections committee on the expenses of
the Skidmore-Cooper contest was consid-
cred. One Of the prominent measures in
PRODUCED in the House was an apportion-
ment bill by Representative Gillett. This
apportionment was arranged by Grant
Kitchener secretary of the Lincoln League.
and was printed in the Journal a short
time ago.

The pharmacy bill. which is now practi-
cally before the Legislature, is a measure
which deserves candid and intelligent con-
sideration. At the outset it may be said
that the State pharmacy is not an expert
ment a fad. All of the States which
touch Indiana have state pharmacies, even
TO Kentucky. Ohio has had such an insti-
tuition for years. costing now $4,000 a year;
Michigan and Wisconsin. States with which
Indiana can be classed. have successful
pharmacies upon which they expend $4,000
year; Massachusetts, which always does
things thoroughly, spends $4,000 a year
upon its pharmacy The bin before the
Legislature appropriates 5000 for the fit-
ting up OF a State laboratory in the base
ment OF the Statehouse, and $4,000, OF as
much thereof as may be necessary, for
chemists and employees and expenses at
tending the enforcement of the law Great
Ing the pharmacy. If it shall be enacted,
and the enforcement Of the pure-food law
passed in 1899 and Endorsed by foreign as
well as domestic professional journals as
model law.
An abstract Of the purposes of the bin
has been given in the Journal. 1t is said
that s20,00O,0O0 is invested in industries
which pollute the streams. The most Of
these industries would dispose of their
refuse so as not to pollute streams IL they
can. 1t is problem for the experienced
chemist. There is a disposition to bring
suits against such Industries, many as
blackmail. If the analysis of State labor
atory shows that an industry does not
pollute a stream. damages cannot be OBJ
tanned. 1t is shown by those who urge the
bill that much food Is adulterated and that
the authorizations most reach the foods pur
chased by people of very limited means.
because they are cheap. Many adultera-
tons. costing small price. while not in
furious to health, are sold for large price.
Without authority to make analyses, the
excellent pure-food law is dead letter.
since action cannot be begun against those
selling or preparing adulterated foods with
out an analysis.
Expenditure under the bill is carefully
guarded and the utmost care seems to have
been exercised 20 secure accounting for
every cent expended. 1t can be said that
the testimony from States having pharma
cies is decidedly in their favor. In other
States official buildings have been erected,
but here that expense will be saved by
using portion of the basement of the
Statehouse which is not needed for any
other purpose. For the work, none but
graduates of Purdue University will be
employed who have the highest standing
Such are the essential features of the bill
which Is before the Legislature. The money

gent and progressive physicians of the
