Some of the Denver druggists are
alarmed regarding the effect of the
pure food bill which is making such
rapid progress through the House. At
a meeting held on Saturday night it
was determined to have it amended il
possible. The assertion is made that
1t creates doctors trust" and that
under it no drug or medicine could be
sold without physicians prescription.
Owners and dealers in proprietary
medicines are also on the anxious seat.

Among the bills introduced in the
Senate is one by Senator Alexander to
repeal the present State Board of Ar
bitration and create Court of Arbitra-

Alexander says the present board is
useless and has never acted in any
labor diffic atty. He says it costs the
state $4,000 and accomplishes moth

a member of the board until recently,
says it is dead letter. He favors the
bill repeating it. The Alexander bill
provides for an arbitratory court of
five men, one to be appointed by the
governor, one by the employer, one of
the employees, and the other two to be
elected by the first three. This bill
was introduced two years ago, but
failed to carry.

sible for suppression of such acts.
Students convicted, by trial, either in
the public courts or by college facul-
ties, must be suspended or expelled,
according to the grade of the offense.
Its object is to class hazing where 1t
belongs, among the contemplate prac-
tices of the mean and brutal. But col
lege students alone are not included
in the penalties to be enforced. Any
similar acts Of taking advantage Of the
weak, helpless or those rendered help
less may be punished just as in cases
of college pranks.
A bill will be introduced into the
