tory in the House.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL

AESUblAlC SfEClA1A
Jefferson City, Mo-, Feb. 2-The BARRIERS
bill to enforce licenses in all shops Of the
State was defeated in the House this aft
ernoon by vote of 63 to 81 after debate
which brought out some interesting oratory.
In the last four years the BARRIERS have
been able to force licenses in all cities Of
more than 5000 inhabitants. This session
they tried to make it cover the entire State.
Williams Of Scott objected, and stated that
before long they would be trying to license
every washerwoman in the State.
Terrell Of Maries said that the country
did not want the BARRIERS licensed, and II
the extension of the license system did not
stop every man who Travelled between plow
handles would have to nail a license on the
side Of the handle. Hams Of Aline said that
he lived in a farming community and that
he was in favor Of the bill becauce the
good BARRIERS were alive to the necessity Of
passing such q measure.
Stewart Of Knox arrayed the country
against the city. What right have you to
dictate to US when we shall suspend busi-
ness?" he said. I'VE are satisfied In my
little town of 2,ooo people we have a better
barber than you have in Jefferson City.

The electric lighting plant has a ca

was steady as a church. He REGARDS
her as the equal of anything at1oat OF
her class.
No brief description like this can give
much idea OF the Style OF pleasure pau

handsome allow and aloft, on deck and
below deck, speedy and comfortable,
and with it all she has marvels of
beauty and luxury such as have only
lately been provided for those who go

The new Aria looks every inch a
racer, showing grace in every line, but
she is also fine sea boat and is full OF
comforts and luxuries. On her long
sweep of white decks there is room for

pie to promenade, and, with the pro

richest color and grain, beautifully pol

shades. The music room is provided
with an upright piano.
The main saloon is reached by a com

descending the mahogany staircase,
with its heavy hand carved rails, one
enters an apartment finished and fur

being displayed everywhere, from the
mahogany woodwork on walls and cell
