Jefferson City, Mo-, Feb. 22.-
Governor Folk returned to the
Senate this morning with his sig.
nature, Senate bill No. II, to re-
peal the antialum law.
This ends the six years fight
against this law. 1t was put on
the books in 1899 under peculiar
auspices.
The first knowledge of the real
effect came when the trust baking
powder company forced the alum
baking, powder companies to quit
the State.
During the sessions of 1901 and
1903 the independent companies
tried in vain to repeal the law, but
were beaten both times in the Sen
ate.
During the last session Lieuten-
ant Governor Lee gave his sensa-
tiOnal tie vote in favor of the cCm-
promise. Shortly afterwards he
made his confession involving him
self and several Senators in boo
ding.
This session the repeal bill
passed the Senate with only three
dissenting votes.

There's Such Characs
teTS.

jefferson City, Mo. Feb. 2l.-
Representative Burch, Democrat, q,
of Audrain county, introduced a
bill in the House this morning
aimed against "Indian" voting.
Under the present law in the
cities where there is II large unac-
quainted population" he said, "a
man whose name has been voted is
without redress. My bill simply
aims to make the safeguards for
the honest elector so good that
Indians will be eliminated"
Section l of the bill provides
that, when a qualified voter APP
pears to vote and finds that some
one has preceded and impersonat-
ed him, 1T shall be the duty of
the election judges at such voting
places, or any of the election
judges, to swear such person that
he is entitled to vote. When such
an affidavit is made the election
judges shall accept his ballot and
deposit it in a separate. ballot box
provided for that purpose, and
shall issue to such person a certi-
cate which shall be signed by all
of the judges.
Section , provides that these
ballots shall be known as duplicate
ballots, which shall be numbered
in the order they were cast and
marked as cOntesting ballots
numbered the same as were cast
fraudulently. Separate poll books
and ballot boxes for the duplicate
ballots shall be furnished by the
Board of Election Commissioners

TO PREVENT BRIBERY OF CANDI-
DATES.


Jefferson City, Mo, Feb. 21.-
Representative Burch introduced a
bill this afternoon to strengthen
the bribery laws. 1t provides:
Every person who shall directly
give any goods, right in action,
gratuity or reward to any candi-
date for any public Office whether
such Office be appOintive or elective
or to any person who has been
elected or appointed to any public
Office after election or appoint
ment, and prior to taking the oath
of said office, with intent to inhu-
ence his vote or decision on any
question which may be brought be-
fore him as an official, shall be
deemed guilty of bribery.
The same penalty is applied to
those who accept bribes, under
such conditions. Under the pres
ent law there is some question re-
garding the testimony against Of
tenders who accept bribes before
they are sworn in.
