REV. HAWKINS HOT SHOT.

That was very plain talk by Rev j
S. Hawkins Sunday night at the FRS.
Methodist church on the Doodle cases,
and will no doubt create widespread
comment. Readers Of the Graphic
will remember that it said editorially
last Friday that it was to be OBJ
served that up to the present the in
vestigation seemed to De confined to
legislators only. as indictments had
been returned against legislators only.
It also said that if any OF the legisla-
tors had been guilty of bribe taking
somebody is guilty of bribe giving.
and that the bribe givers should also
be prosecuted. If a legislator has
given bribes to other legislators he
has done so as the agent of somebody
else, and the real beneficiary of pur-
chased legislation is as guilty OF a
crime against society as the leg
islator who sells his vote, and should
be made to suffer the consequences.
The Graphic does not doubt but
that there was bribe giving and bribe
taking at the recent session Ct the
legislature, and it would be pleased to
know that every guilty person will be
punished to the full extent Of the law,
but it does net desire to see only the
alleged bribe takers prosecuted mere
" for the furtherance of the political
schemes of any man or set OF men,
while the bribe givers the real oene-
ficiares Ct corrupt legislation, are al
lowed to go unmolested.

GOOD THING FOR KANSAS.
Many Refineries Which VIII Bring
Millions to the State.

Caney, Kan, March 3.-As the result
of the laws recently passed for the pro-
lection of the oil business, it is estimat-
ed that a million dollars will be invest
ed in Independent refneries and pipe
lines in Kansas within the next four or
five months. There are now more than
a dozen propositions before the various
towns in the oil belt. Chanute is negoti-
ating for four refineries, one from a
syndicate of New Workers which desires
to put up a plant with a daily capacity
of 1,500 barrels of crude oil, one from a
Beaumont concern for a refinery with
a capacity of 500 barrels, one from the
National Refining company of Bakers
field, Cal, and Chicago, with a. daily ca
pacity of l. 500 barrels, and another from
a local syndicate for a plant with a
daily capacity of 500 barrels.
It is announced that Kansas City cap
ital viii erect a refinery with a daily
capacity OF 1000 barrels at Niotaze, a
place and Peru. This also involves the
Peru, a distance of seven or eight miles.
This refinery is to be constructed by
two oil companies
The state refinery at Peru will have
have a daily capacity of 1000 barrels
and this also will require the building
of some twelve or fifteen miles of pipe
line, and in time may cause much
longer line than that.
At PaOla the money has been raised
and the material ordered for the erection
of refinery of small capacity.
There is also a proposition in indie
pendence for a refinery there to handle

part of the output of the Bolton and
Wayside pools. The capacity of the
plant will be 1900 barrels a day.
there is the independent pipe line which
the Corn Planter refinery people will
build from Chelsea, I. T., to st. Louis.
AS the capacity of the Chelsea pool is
only ], 900 barrels of crude oil a day and
as the capacity of the st. Louis refinery
is to be 5000 barrels a day, an addition
al market for 1000 barrels a day win be
afforded
If these plans go through it means
much more to the state and to the oil
industry than the almost immediate in
vestment of more than / million dollars
1t means competition with the Standard
Oil company for nearly all of the oil
produced in Kansas. The aggregate
capacity of the plants given above and
the st. Louis pipe line of 10000 barrels
of crude oil a day, and this is very close
to the total production of the Kansas
field at this time. The construction of
the proposed ref1neries and pipe lines
would give not only a competitive mar
l<et for the output of the state and
thereby materially increase prices, but
it would stimulate development as Moth
ing else has stimulated it since the
Standard company began raising the
price and building the pipe lines about
eighteen months ago.
That the producers anticipate greater
activity is shown in the renewed de-
mand for leases.

CAN BANKS PLEDGE AssETs2
Senate Agrees to Depository Amend.
ments With Proviso.

The senate committee of the whole
Thursday night recommended for pas
sage the state depository bill as
amended by the house.
After the bill was passed by the
senate and the house had amended it
the bill went to a conference commit
tee and in the conference committee
the clause allowing banks to give
surety bonds for the protection of state
funds was stricken out. The house
imm ediately accepted this and was
satisfied with the clause allowing
banks to pledge assets for the safety
of state funds on deposit, and adopted
the committee report, but the senate
baked just little. Senator Waggen-
er raised the point that national and
state banks cannot pledge their assets.
The senate then passed a law to allow
state banks to pledge assets for the
protection of state funds. If Wag
geners contention is correct national
banks are excluded
The senate adopted the committee
report and passed the bill.

VERY FEW PEOPLE
Are Free From Some Form of Tndi-
gestIon.

Very few people are free from some
form of indigestion, but scarcely two
will have the same symptoms.
Some suffer most directly after eat
ing, bloating from gas in stomach and
bowels, others have heartburn or sour
risings, still others have palpitation of
heart, headaches, sleeplessness, pains in
chest and under shoulder blades, some
have extreme nervousness, as in nerV-
GUS dyspepsia.
But whatever the symptoms may be,
the cause in all cases of indigestion is
the same, that is the stomach for some
reason fails to properly and promptly
digest what is eaten.
This is the whole story of stomach
troubles in a nutshell The stomach
must have rest and assistance and Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets give it both by
supplying those natural digestives
which every weak stomach lacks, owing
to the failure of the peptic glands in
the stomach to secrete sufficient acid
and pepSin to thoroughly digest and as
simulate the food eaten.
One grain of the active principle in
Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
5000 grains of meat eggs or other
wholesome food, and this claim has
been proven by actual experiment,
which anyone can perform for himself
in the following manner: Cut a hard
boiled egg into very small pieces, as it
would be if maSticated; place the egg
and two or three of the tablests in a
bottle or jar containing warm water
heated to 90 degrees (the temperature
of the body) and keep it at this tenn
perature for three and one-haf hours,
at the end of which time the egg will
be as completely digested as it would
have been in the healthy stomach of a
hungry boy.
The point of this experiment is that
what Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will
do to the egg in the bottle they will do
to the egg or meat in the stomach and
nothing else will rest and invigorate
the stomach so safely and effectually.
Even a little child can take Stuart's
Tablets with safety and benefit if its
digestion is weak and the thousands of
cures accomplished by their regular
daily use are easily explained when it
is understood that they are composed
of vegetable essences, aseptic, pepsin,
diastase and Golden Seal, which mingle
with the food and digest it thoroughly
giving the overworlxed stomach a
chance to recuperate-
Dieting never cures Dyspepsia, neitl1-
er do pills and cathartic medicines,
which simply irritate and inf1ame the
inteStineS.
When enough food is eaten and
promptly digested there will be no con-
stipation. nor in fact will there be dis
ease of any kind because good diges-
ton means good health in every organ.
The merit and success of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets are world wide and
they are sold at the moderate price of
so cents for full sized package in every
drug store in the United States and

TEXAS GRAIN RATES.
Interstate NIiIlers Outside of Texas
Have Grievances


Here is a new phase of rate regula-
ton. The st. Louis Democrat
says
In January the Texas railroad COM
mission gave notice of its intention to
consider the readiustment of the grain
and grain product rates; also milling in
transit and reconsigning rules applying
locally between Texas points 1t is
supposed that the Texas commission
took the initiative in the matter as no
complaints had been made to any of
the Texas railroads by Texas shippers.
Rather than have reductions made over
the entire state of Texas on all grain
and grain products, the Texas lines got
together with the Texas miIlers and
asked them what it was necessary to
do on the part of the railroads to pre-
vent a reduction of rates locally in the
state on all grain and grain products
The Texas millers promised the rail-
roads that if the rates on corn meal

not appear that the millers in Kansas

appeal to the interstate commerce com
