The Eighth is no More

Probably the most notable thing
in regard to the session of the Eight
Legislature just closed Is the general
good feeling which prevailed among
the members and the elimination of
personal hostility.
The differences of opinion which
have necessarily arisen have been re-
cognized by both sides in every dis
cussion to be honest opinions and
while there has been disappointment
there is no illwill.
Naturally there is always some dis
appointment over legislation enacted
and legislation omitted; it was hoped
that appropriations would be materi-
ally reduced, but as they have not
been, it now behooves the citizens OF
the state to deal fairly with the asses
sor that the state will not show "a de.
felt at the end of the two years.
The proceedings in the two houses
worked with remarkable smoothness
for which the greater part of the
credit belongs to President Levers
and Speaker Cooper. Both of these
officers have presided with the strict
est impartia!ity and fairness.
The chief clerks and there assis.
tants have also done excellent work
and have been invaluable to the Leg
islature in its disposition to keep its
works up to the minute.
The Tribune has been most courte
ously treated by the members and Of
ficers Oh both bodies and appreciates
it.
The people of Cheyenne are to be
congratulated upon the manner in
which they set about to make things
pleasant for the out of town members
their courtesy and hospitality having
completely removed the apprehen-
sion of some of the visitors that Chey.
enne would be found cold and selfish
Cheyenne has enjoyed your visi,

lhe House oil Representatives has
been much excited over the action of
the Senate in returning the Agricul
tural bill with an amendment which
involves the revenue. This amend
mehi affecting the revenue is regard
ed as a direct violation of the Con
stitution and is an infringement on
the privileges of the House, where
all revenue bills must originate. Rep
resentative Payne in an indignant
speech in the House declared that
the Constitution conferred upon the
House the right to originate all re-
venue Legislation and the act of the
Senate he denounced as an aggress-
i've attack upon the House by the
Senate. 1t is IA peculiar coincidence
that just at the moment that the
Senate is repudiating the act of the
President in a real or supposed
attack upon the dignity and pre-
rogative of the Senate that some
body should have been guilty of a
violation OF the Contitution and an
usurpation of TIE privileges of the
House. On IA vote of 265 to ) the re-
= button to return the bill to the
Senate was passed.

tons occurred Thursday night, and

hard work and perplexities of the
President during the week his well

ever. The reception was in honor of
the Army and Navy and the officers
present were i'll full uniforms so that
the scene was more brilliant with
gorgeous uniforms than at any of the
levees during the season. The music
furnished by the Marine band was
entirly martial in character and the
decorations consisted in part of the
flags of the President the lieutenant
general of the Army and the Admiral
OF the Navy and other e%mblematic
devices in harmony with the Army
and Naval representation at the re-
ception.
The Presidents discussion of the
situation in Santo Domingo and our
duty to that country as set forth in
his message to the Senate seems to
meet with general approval. The
message was sent to the Senate We'd

STRIKING FACTS ABOUT SLEEP.
One Of the Most Mysterious Of the
WayS of Nature.

Shakespeare, said scientist
''called sleep the ape of death. That
is a striking name for striking thing.
Sleep is a wonderland. Let us eN
plore it.
"Self-hypnOtism is mysterious
force that we can exercise on our
selves in sleep alone. We are all
self-hypnotists. We all, on certain
nights, tell ourselves firmly that we
must not oversleep, that the next
morning-at 4, at 5 or precise
ly we must wake up. Our sleep
ing selves respond to the hyp-
motto suggestion made the night be-
fore by our waking selves. That is
mysterious and striking, isn't it? Still
more mysterious and striking, though,
is the fact of our keeping track OF
the time somehow in our slumber
How on earth do we do that?
ut is impossible to do without
sleep. Men have slept standing, even
running. They have slept in battle,
under fire, with guns roaring on all
sides. They have slept in unendur
able and deadly pain.
There is no torture equal to that
which the deprivation of sleep entails.
The Chinese are the cruelest folks on
earth. and the most ingenious of tor
| turers. Well, the Chinese place the
deprivation of sleep at the head OF
their torture list.
"Sleep is a state of rest. The heart
rests in sleep. The heart is rhythmic
| muscle, not one that never reposes,
| but one that works at short shifts,
| like puddler. a moment on, mo-
ment off. Well, when we sleep, the

as we do.

even the ear glands rest in sleep
That is why when we awake we al
ways rub our eyes. The rubbing is
an instructive action that stimulates
the stagnant tear glands and causes
them to moisten properly our eyes al
