LEGISLATIVE S S
Gathered Here and There About Hotel
Lobbies By Tribune
Scribes.

The number of visitors at the capitol
was increased somewhat yesterday. The
newspaper boys in the city made the
rounds and looked on at the proceedings.
Representative Cassell controlled the
destinies of the house yesterday, Speaker
Pollock having COMO to Fargo. Mr..
Cassel is familiar with the duties of the
position and acquits himself with credit
and general satisfaction.
Secretary Townes of the senate went
down to Fargo to have an attack of
grippe. He felt it coming on and pre-
ferred to have it down there. In his alb
sence Messrs. Tuttle and Moe do the
clerical work of the senate, and as for
A. Lindsay, he's the best reading
clerk ever.

A bill is before the Washington legis-
ture providing that all legal executions
take place at the state penitentiary in
stead of at county seats. Such a meas
ure should meet with favorable consld-
Grafton in this state. In support of the
measure in Washington the Post-Intel-
ligencer says.
There should not be one vote in oppo-
sition to the bill to have all executions
of criminals condemned to death carried
out at the state penitentiary instead of
at the county seats where they are tried
and convicted. 1t is a measure in sup
port of decency, good order n public
morals. These occasions are always
made something of a public function.
The gallows has to be got ready, and the
hideous preparations are more or less in
and constantly in the view of a curious
crowd. Then it is not uncommon for
the privilege of witnessing the hanging
to be extended quietly to more than a
favored few, and the CHASTITY spectacle
attracts those stirred by morbid desire
and deficient in truly human feelings.
The whole proceeding is bad for the in
dividual and a disgrace to civilization.
The intiction of capital punishment is
the extreme stretch of the power of the
state, and a melancholy remaining wit
ness of human infrmity. 1t is to society
what treatment for some awful and dis
figuring disease is to the individual; a
thing calling for the knife may
hap, but for strictest concealment
from the public gaze. It is a
living proof that humanity, which dare
not yet abolish it, fingers still on the
lowest plane. Since it is a necessary
adjunct TO society, let us treat it with
the silence and decorum that are fitting.
AS we'll leave the body of the criminal
after death to tester and decay in the
public streets as to administer the death
penalty upon him in a spirit of brutal
levity. At the state penitentiary it is
possible to have all arrangements made
and the sentence of the law carried into
effect without exposure or comment.
Within it's enclosures the state may do
what it has to do with the solemnity
that should accompany the passing of
any human life, however mean and low.
We regret, indeed, that the proposed
change in the law does not 60 farther,
and substitute for the shocking medi-
aeval mode of execution by the hang
mans moose the quick and certain appli-
cation of the electric current. Electro
cution instead of hanging marks a long
advance. If the state is not ready for
this, it certainly is ready for the prohi-
bition of all local and semi-public
executions, by requiring the act to be
performed at the state prison. This bill
should pass by a unanimous vote.

Timely information given Mrs. Geo.

vented a dreadful tragedy and saved
two lives. "A frightful cough had long
kept her awake every night. She had
tried many remedies and doctors but
steadily grew worse until urged to try
DR.. Kings New Discovery. One bottle
wholly cured her, and she writes this
marvellous medicine also cured Mr..
Long of a severe attack of Pneumonia.

STORY OF A SLAVE.

To be bound hand and foot for years
by the chains of disease is the worst
form of slavery. George D. Williams,
of Manchester. Mich, tells how such
a slave was made free. He says: my

that she could not turn over in bed
alone. After using two bottles of Elec-
trio Bitters, she. is wonderfully i'm
proved and able to do her own work"
This supreme remedy for female d.
seases quickly cures nervousness,
sleeplessness, melancholy, headache,
backache, fainting and dizzy spells.
This miracle working medicine is a
godsend to weak, sickly, run down peo-
pie. livery bottle guaranteed. Only

The Page Record says: The Senate
bill to compel our public schools to
teach foreign languages when the vote of
the people of any district demands it,
was properly turned down. The way to
make good American citizens is to re-
quire the children of foreign parentage
to learn our language and conform with
our customs.

THE SALOONS OPEN AGAIN.

Jacksonville Metropolis (Thursday): The
saloons of Jacksonville, after being closed
for nearly two weeks, opened at o'clock
this morning, and the thirsty were on
hand to satisfy themselves. Old topers
have had a hard time for several days
past. Their countenances indicate a dis
appointment that was indeed pitiful. For
days they cast sleeps eyes at all the sa-
looms they passed. Sometimes they would
venture in, and with a significant wink say
to the bartender: Cant you let a fell
low have drop or two?" But they were
all turned down. Ginger ale has been the
most popular drink. This is not usually
the case in Jacksonville, but since the
fire there has been "A great demand for it,
One mixologist in speaking of this de-
mand said: I'VE have never had any
special trade in ginger ale before the fire,
and some days 1 never sold a bottle, but
since the fire l have disposed of over 5000
bottles, and l guess other places did even
better business. We had all kinds of
trouble trying to obey the orders of Col.
Lowell, and in some cases we made old
customers mad, but 1 believe the best
thing that has been done since the fire
was the closing of the saloons. The most
pitiful thing l had TO encounter was an
old man who offered me S. for dram

Lghtsey and Lewis one day last week
purchased the stock of cattle consisting
of 1000 head from Hon. r. e. Brown of
DE Soto county. They intend to move
this stock at once. together with 600 they
now have on Estipoga Island, to the Kis'
simmee river section and bunch with their
stock in that section. Mr.. Henry Lewis is
now in the woods getting them up. This
last deal gives Messrs. Lightsey e. Lewis
the largest herd of cattle on this side of
Kissimmee river. and they are preparing
to put more cattle on that range as fast
as the beef cattle are taken off. They
have the contract for moving the Fulton
stock of cattle from the river section.

The steamer Clifton, after receiving a
thorough overhauling of her boilers and
machinery, has just been turned out by
VIM. Kehoe & Sons. Her boiler has been
built practically new by John H. Quinn,
superintendent of Kehoe's boiler depart
ment. The Clifton also has had her bot
tom re-coppered. She has been painted
over. which gives her the appearance of
a new vessel. The work just completed
is the largest job recently turned out on
a Savannah steamboat. Capt. Geo. u.
Beach, owner of the Clifton. is greatly
pleased with the work, and in recognition of
it rendered TO the mechanics who worked
on the boat a spin down the river yester-
day on a trial trip. The Clifton will be
used in the excursion business in Savan-
nah during the summer months. She is
claimed to be the fastest boat of her class
plying Southern waters.
