Members of common councils are like
ly to enter objection to the bill that is
designed to cure irregularities in the
bond issues when they find out the extent
to which it goes. While it does not make
It necessary in the future to submit bonds
to public approval it does require that
no bonds shall be issued with less than
three fourths of the members OF the
common councils voting fayorably. at
the present time a majority is all that
Is necessary. The enactment of this law
will probably result in keeping bond
issues within proper boundA

The Assembly on Tuesday voted to Re
consider the vote that recently defeated
the proposed BARRIERS license law. and
made it a special order for Thursday.
Joseph w. Errant, a Chicago attorney,
argued against the passage of the Lang
bill to prevent all combinations, boycOtts
and agreements i'll restraint Of trade.
The committee decided to recommend the
bill for passage. Errant appeared for n
delegation of retail and wholesale drug
gists from Chicago, Milwaukee, and 9th
er cities and said that the bill was aimed
at the boycotts which the Retail Drug
gists' Association of America have Of
fectively used to fight department stores
and other pricc-cutters Of patent medi-
cines. Attorneys for the leading rail
roads of the Northwest appeared before
the taxation committees to oppose the
bill to establish a commission to fix
freight and passenger rates III Wiscon-
sin. BY this law the Governor proposes
to prevent the railroads from raising
rates to reimburse themselves for the
annual increase of 81 100000 in taxation
provided for in the adj valorem bill al
ready reported for passage.

If the scene presented in the Senate
chamber when Rev. Fl. w. Jameson
opened the proceedings with prayer, Is
to be accepted as an indication Of tie
feelings of the members, the colored pop
ulation need have no fear as to the out
come of the bill seeking to prohibit the
marriage of white people with colorcd
people and vice versa. Mr.. Jameson Is
pastor of the African Methodist Church.
He is an intelligent young man, of excel
lent appearance and we'll educated. His
appearance caused some surprise, as it
was the first time that a colOred clergy
man has off1ciated in opening q session
of Legislature. The ministers of Madi-
son take turns in acting as chaplains
for the Senate and the Assembly. The
State pays them at the rate Of S23 per
week for the service The ministers have
made up a schedule whereby a member
Is assigned to each house for one week
and Mr. Jameson is being accorded the
same treatment as any of the reverend
gentlemen.

The many church organizations and
women reform societies throughout the
State are flooding the Legislature with
petitions for the passage of the anti
cigarette law. One Young Woman
Anti-Cigarette Club has made its appear
ance. Of the religious societies the
Methodist Church is evidencing the great
est degree of activity and there are Pc
titions bearing the signatures of Meth
odist ministers presented touching every
form of reform legislation that has been
presented.

Milwaukee physicians are up in arms
against the so-called anatomical bill; that
which proposes to give to the State Uni
versity the bodies of paupers and those
of persons whose relatives do not care to
provide a burial. The bill provides that
Immediately upon the death of paupers
or Of persons whose bodies are unclaimed
the authorities having charge Of the
same. whether it be the coroner or sup
erintendents of the poor farms or asy-
lums, shall notify the chief Of the ana
tomical department of the university and
then, if desired, the body is to be sent
to Madison to be used for scientific pur-
poses. At the present time the bodies
of paupers are turned over to the various
medical colleges for scientific purposes.
If the bill passes it will cut off the sup
ply of the Milwaukee medical colleges
to the great detriment of those institu-
tions, and will, in addition, result In adj
ditional cost to the county, for in addi-
ton to paying telegraph tolls the county
will have to pay the expenses of sending
the bodies to the State University. Act
ing President Birge of the university
has In mind the ultimate establishment OF
a medical school in connection with the
university. There was good deal Of
talk of applying to the Legislature for
an appropriation for that purpose at
the present session, but it was deemed
inadvisable because of the large appro-
priation needed in other departments and
in making improvements. Nevertheless
a sort of a pre-medical course has been
established. This course is now feeding
the Chicago medical schools largely. and
If there is a preparatory medical depart
ment, with two years course, such as
proposed by Acting President Birge, 1t
is claimed it will also operate as Il feed
err for the Chicago colleges. If the Mil
waukee schools are to continue 1T will
be necessary for them to have bodies
with which to experiment and to use for
the purpose of demonstration, but the
anatomical bill will put an end to all
that.

WISCONSIN SOLONS.

A joint resolution was introduced in
the Legislature Thursday by Senator
Hatton which he hopes will be the initia-
tive in a movement to hold national
conference on the negro problem. The
resolution provides for the appointment
OF ten persons to attend such n confer
ence to be held at Atlanta, Ga, and also
requests that the Governor transmit q
copy of the resolution to the Governor
of each of the other States, with tie 1e-
quest that like number be appointed to
attend the conference. This is en- abso-
lutely independent movement. I'D Scna-
tor Hatton's object in introdu~ the res
olution is to bring about q conference up
on this important topic by Il gathering
which shall in every way be free from
partisan bias. He feels that such a con-
ference providing that the Governors OF
the various States will appoint rs dele
gates men who have given some thought
and study to the subject, will be nroduc-
tive of good. The bill appropriatins So
600 for the completion and equipment
of buildings at the Home for the Feeble
Minded, Chippewa Falls, was passed I'M
der suspension of the rules on motion of
Mr.. Dahl, who explained rs Il reason for
urgency the fact that there are 400 APP
plications for admission in excess OF the
accommodations, $50 of whom can be
taken care of when these buildings, now
nearly finished, are equipped.
-
In the Assembly Friday the bill pro-
yiding for the taxation of railroad COM
panies on the ad valorem basis was final
ly passed by unanimous vote, without a
word of debate. Coincident with this ac-
ton the third and last sweeping admins
tratiOn measure, the railroad commits
sion bill. to fix and control the rates for
passenger and freight traffic i'll Wiscon-
sin, made its appearance. 1t was intro
duced by the Assembly Committee on
Railroads, by Chairman c. w. Gilman, of
Mondovi The bill was drawn by the
administration members of the commit
tee with the assistance of the Governor
and the Attorney General and was pre-
sented to the Assembly with favorable
Recommendation for immediate passage.
Attorney General Sturdevant is said to
have investigated all the legal questions
involved and the measure, administration
members say, will stand the test Of the
most severe judicial controversy to which
the railroad corporations are certain to
subject it if it becomes Il law.

BACHELORS AND splNsrERs.
VIII BE Forced To Marry If This Bill
Is Enacted BY The Kansas
legislature

Topeka, Kan, Jan. 8,-If the
bill introduced in the House of Re-
personalities to-day by F. ID. Camp
bell. of Bourbon, becomes a law.
Kansas will derive big additional
revenue from the old maids and old
bachelors in the state. The bill
provides for a tax on unmarried
men who are more than 90 years
Old, and officially fixes the age at
which woman becomes an old
maid, and must pay taxes, at as
years. 1, is expected that the bill
will be opposed by both Governor
Bailey and Lieutenant Governor
Hanna, as both are unmarried and
more than 80 years of age.
The bill provides that bachelors
shall pay $50 year, doubled every
year they remain single. Old maids
shall pay tex Of s. year, doubled
every year The money derived
from the tax shall be used to pay re.
wards Of fathers Of six or more
children at SIoo year apiece. A
clause in the bill provides for the
forfeiture to the school fund salaries
Of unmarried state officers. As
the governor and lieutenant COVER
nor are both bachelors, this part Of
the bill seems to be aimed at them.

He marched down the hall and
got his overcoat and hat and banged
the front door after him. He was
boiling over, and luckily there was
an escape valve at hand. A belated
umbrella meuder on the opposite
side of the street uttered his wierd
call, and Mr.. Bowser let out a fierce
war whoop and rushed for him.
There was shock which carried the
iiinerant and six old umbrellas
against the fence, and then Mrs.
Bowser, who had come to the door
heard the clatter of footsteps down
the street. Mr.. Bowser had struck
hot trail and was pushing it for all
1t was worth. The umbrella man
knew that an epoch had come into
his existence, and was covering five
feet at every jump.

Feed pale girls on SCOTS

We do not need to give all
the reasons why SCOTS
Emulsion restores the strength
and flesh and color of good
health to those who suffer
from sick blood.
The fact that it is the best
preparation of Cod Liver Oil,
rich in nutrition, full of healthy
stimulation is a suggestion as
to why it does what it does.
SCOTS Emulsion presents
Cod Liver Oil at its best,
fullest in strength, least in
