Who has not seen the brilliantly
lighted State Capitol during a Legisla-

some appearance it makes in the even

perhaps more so in the evening, yet TO
render it of that appearance and to
make the interior available for bust
ness on such OCCASIONS requires no little
work and care on the part of many
people.
The building is equipped with be-
tween 1900 and 1900 incandescent lamps
and during a session about 1000 are in
use, the number during the balance of
the TWO years, of course, is mucn
smaller and depends on the business at

Among the most important
acts of the coming session of the
Legislature will be the amend,
ment of the dispensary law, and
too, many of the members are
going to find themselves embar.
rassed when they have to act
contrary to what they promised
on the stump. Many candidates
during the last campaign were
so eager for election that they
promised to do all in their power
to prevent any change in the
law, but since the election, con,
ditions have arisen which may
warrant a change of mind. Now
whether these members elected
are going to stand by tleir prom
ises on the stump remains to be
seen, and their acts in this re-
spect will be watched with more
than usual interest.

there are several new circuits

for several years to create more
circuits, but the fact that the
people are not disposed to con-
sent to the creating Of more jobs
for an Indifferent class Of law
yers has thus far kept the pro-
ject in allegiance. The lawyers
not only want more judges, but
they also want to create an

No More Suffering

If YOU are troubled with indigestion
get a bottle of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
and see how quickly it will cure you.
Geo. A. Thomson, Of Spencer, Ia, says:
"Have had Dyspepsia for twenty years;
My case was almost hopeless. Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure was recommended and
I used a few bottles of it and it is the
only thing that has relieved me. Would
not be without it. Have doctored with
local physicians and also at Chicago,
and even went to Norway with hopes
of getting some relief, Kodol Dyspep-
sia Cure is the only remedy that has
done me any GOOD, and heartily recon-
mend it. Every person suffering with
indigestion or dyspepsia should use it."

cotton more, and yet only fifteen
weeks have passed. The stocks
at the ports are now only 26, ,OOO
bales more than last year, and
$4,000 bales less than the year
before, and Judging from freight
engagements over 100000 bales
cotton will be exported from this
port alone, during the balance
of this month. More cotton has
been sold ahead to spinners,
therefore must be bought by
cotton buyers, than probably
ever before in the history Of cot
ton and this demand will certain
ly enable the southern farmer to
get rid Of what he wants to sell
of the balance of this crop at
re1lumerative prices if he will
only market same judiciously
instead Of getting panic-stricken
and all try to see who can sell
first.
:'Certainly every one interest
ed in the south must hope that
the planter will not sacrifice the
balance of his cotton, as it means
the depreciation in value of every
interest in the south. Let every
merchant in the south remember
what they passed through in
1898, and I believe they will
then do what they can to prevent
a return Of those conditions.
"However, there is no use IN
giving advice. It all remains
with the planter: but it is the
