o
Topeka. Kan, Jan. g. Anti.
pass bills of assorted varieties are
to be the menu of the house oil
Representatives on next Wednesday
afternoon at two o'clock, and the
people of the state will have a
chance to see exactly how much
hot air there really was in the
prediction promises.
Already it is possible to draw
some tolerably accurate conclu-
sions. 1t is evident that the house
committee on. railroads was Sc
lected by Speaker Simmons with
the idea Of balancing the railroad
and the anti-rallroad forces as
equally as possible. He seems to
have given the railroad crowd a
little the best of it. Nine of the
seventeen members of the COM
mittee, constituting a majority,
voted for the so-calIed Policy
Bill" drafted by M. G. Policy of
Republic. This bill simply has
the effect Of authorizing every
public official to grab all the rail.
road transportation he can get his
hands on. 1t prohibits nothing
except the issuance of free passes
to those attending political con-
ventions, and those going home to
vote, and is. in fact, merely 3
straw bill" framed FOR the pur-
pose of satisfying public clamor
without disturbing the Almighty
Annual. The nine members who
voted for this bill were Potts of
Morris, Kift of Atchison, Jones
of Trego, Jefries of Sumner, e.
stun of Elk. Montee Of Crawford,
Snyder of Leavenworth, Shepard
of Washington. and Policy of Re-
public.
Seven members of the railroad
were for what is called the Stone
bill, which is a real anti-pass law,
and makes clean sweep of the
free list. 1t even knocks out the
railroad attorneys and the railroad
surgeons, who hold local jobs in
exchange for a free pass.
Joseph 5. johnson, a democrat,
from Miami, favored a third bill.
one supposed to have had its origin
with Bailie Waggener in The Sen
ate. This bill takes the other horn
OF the dilemma, and makes it CON-
pulsory for railroad to give free
passes to all public officials. Such
a Law, it is claimed, would relieve
the officials from any sense of OBJ.
legation, but the general sentiment
is that it is a decidedly dangerous
experiment.
The house nas ordered 400 cop
les of each of the three bills brint-
ed, and they will be ready for use
vAen the hose takes up tho special
order on next Wednesday after

CATARRa GROWING LESS
Due to the Use Of HyOmaI Cures With.
out Stomach Dosing.

Inquiry at the local drug store s
shows that the sale of remedies
for catarrh has..decreased very
much in the last year. Some
medicines which we're formerly
bought a gross at a time are now
purchased in half dozen lots, and
are rarely called for.
There is one notable exception
to this decease in sale, and that is
Hyomei. This remedy is, in fact,
responsible for the decreae in sale
of catarrh medicines. as it has
made so many cures of catarrhal
troubles that naturally there is
much less demand for remedies
for that disease.
People who have been trying
different medicines for catarrh
during many years were induce to
begin the use of Hyomei by
Hooper Drug Co., guarantee. that
the remedy would cost nothing
unless cured. Much to their sur
prise. they found that Hyomei
did what it claimed (if it did not
Hooper Drug Co., could not sell
it urder this guaranteed and they
soon become ardent advocates of
the use of Hyomei.
There is no disagreeable stomach
dosing with Hyomei; it is used
by being breathed through a neat
pocket inhaler. The complete
outfit costs but one dollar. extra
bottles. if needed, fifty cents.
With every Hyomei outfit
Hooper Drug Co.. give their per-
sonal guarantee that the money
will be refunded unless the treat
ment cures, so that you run no
risk at all in buying this reliable
remedy. Do

their annual convention and tout

cts at work; a riot call; a patrol
wagon and policeman dashing
up; an outburst of flames from a
high building; the fire alarm;
gathering crowds; second
alarm; hair-breadth escapes and
thrilling rescues; and, in fact,
all the marvellous work of the
modern fire department.
