lobbyists. Every lobbyist, It appears,
is required to report to the Governor
and the newspaper men Immediately
after arrival In Jefferson City, and 10
explain the object Of his visit, and no

than thirty hours at a stretch. This
story is likely to prove untrue. for t.
is scarcely probably that an able law

pose such restrictions upon Lobbyists
or any other class of people. Even
though the law of Missouri may for
bid everything in the nature Of lobby
ing, the Governor could not properly
undertake to regulate the matter ia
this fashion.
But if any such rules have been
issued. they will result in nothing.
Anybody has a constitutional right to
seek to influence legislation, provided
no corrupt means be used. California
has laws relative to lobbying, but they
apply to only such practices as brih-
cry. Any person interested may prop
er1y talk to members Of the legis}a-

or against a pending measure. Gov

The Kentucky House Friday after
noon by vote of thirty nine to thir-
ty-five defeated substitute bill which
provided for the selection of the Eunt
property as the location for the new
Capitol. This action is declared by
some of the members to indicate that
the Legislature will not authorize the
purchase of new site. The members
who favor a removal, and who believe
that the Hunt property should be Sc
5ected, are still hopeful, however, of
winning in the end. An element that
favors removing the capitol to Lex
ington is said to be working hard
against any action being taken at the
extra session, in the expectation that
lie matter will be left to the next
session, when the whole sub
set can be gone into again. A polit-
cal philosopher could not figure out

Legislature has tied itself. Indica-

DEATHS.

Mr.. James Thomas Davis, one of
\ our Oldest and most highly respected
citizens, died at his home on High
Street, Monday morning, at 8 O'Clock,
after protracted illness. He was
born in this city on July 10, 1924, and
would have been 81 years old next
July. He is survived by his wife, nee
Cline, and three children-Mrs. Denis
Dundon, Walter and George Davis, all
of this city. He also leaves one
brother, George w. Davis, and one
sister, Mrs. Mary Ingels, the only re-
manning members of his immediate
family.
Mr.. Davis had lived in Paris since
his birth, and his life had been useful
and well spent. For forty years he
was one of our leading groceymen,
known for his fair dealing,
honesty and integrity. He was
for many years a consistent member
of the First Presbyterian church and
long an Elder of the church.
He was last charter member of
Bourbon Lodge, No. %, L. o. o. F.
He was elected treasurer the night of
the institution of the lodge, Nov. %,
1915, and has been treasurer ever
since with the exception of two
years, when he retired to pass through
the other chairs. Was then reelected
and was just finishing his fifty-ffth
year as continues treasurer. Until
about one year ago, when sickness
prevented, Mr.. Davis had not missed
twelve meeting nights since the lodge
was instituted, and then was either
to attend his church or was attending
the session of the Grand Lodge. He
was an Odd Fellow whose life was an
example for members of the order to
emulate, for he practiced the princi-
pies of Oddfellowship in his every
day life.
Before the war Mr.. Davis was an
old line Wing, and was at one time
Deputy Sheriff of Bourbon county
Z
under the late B. F. Pullen, but when
the war broke out his sympathies
were with the Union.
