CAPT. MARTIN FOR REPRESEN
TATINE.

1t will be somewhat surprising to
many of our readers to read in this
issue of the Log Cabin Democrat the
formal announcement of Capt. W. W.
Martin as a candidate for representa-
tive of Faulkner county. Many of his
friends who believe that in him the
county would send her strongest man
to the lower house of the Legislature
have 1een urging him make the race
and he this afternoon consented to
allow his name to go before the
people for this position. There is per
haps not a man in the county that is
better known than Capt. Martin, who
has been closely identified with the
county throughout its history. He is
a man u strong convictions, of ire
prCashable chan acter and undoubted
Integrity and one whose judgment is
worth much to any deliberative body.
If elected, his intense loyalty to the
town and county would prompt him
to do everything in his power to pro
mote their interests, and in him the
people would have representative in
which any county could we'll take
pride.

then it is a detriment to legislation
and it is as much our fault as that of
the lobby because the members of this
House are supposed to have minds of
their own strong enough so that we
may go along by ourselves. even
though lobbyists should come here for
the purpose of leading us to do that
which may be wrong.
l never especially cared for that part
of the prayer which we all learned in
our childhood days, Lead us not into
temptationS:' l never was very much
afraid of that sort of thing myself, but
| see in this bill an attempt made to
keep the lobby, or to keep counsel who
appear here for parties within proper
limits. | somewhat doubt the prac-
teal effect of the law being that which
we might wish. | think statute al
most like that exists in Massachusetts.
and there it does not have the effect
that one could wish. But it is not cX-
actly a good excuse to fail to enact a
law, and a good law, because it may
not work perfectly.
Now, there is in this bill another fea-
ture which the gentleman neglected
to mention which especially appeals to
me, and it is found in Section 3. And
the provision is this: mo person shall
be employed as legislative counsel
or agent for compensation dependent
in any manner upon the passage or de-
feat Of any proposed legislation, or up
on any other contingency connected
With the action of the Legislature. or
of either branch thereof. or of any
committee thereof" l, think it would
be a step in the right direction. a long
step in very right direction TO have
the matter Of contingency fees Of the
lobbyists cut out. In regard to that
point L have in mind recent case
which occurred before this House, and
I also speak upon that point not en-
tirely in the interest of good legisla
ton but also in the interest of my
friends the lobbyists; because l don't
want to see them compelled TO

Prescription for Rheuma-
tism and Kidneys.
Gives Relief Promptly and Is
Easily Mixed.
Get the ingredients from the Drug
Store and Mix This at Home. :

Ire following prescription for the
cure of rheumatism and kidney and
bladder troubles has no doubt been
nlled millions of times, viz; Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce;
Compound kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparlla. three
ounces. These simple, harmless in
gradients can be obtained at any good
prescription pharmacy at little cost
drinking a full tumblerful of water
bottle.
The dose for adults is teaspoon
full after each meal and at bedtime,
drinking a full tumblerful of water
after each dose. 1t is stated that this
prescription is a positive remedy for
kidney trouble and lame back, weak
bladder and urinary difficulties, espe-
cially Of the elderly people, and one of
the best things to be used in rheuma-
tic Affections. relieving the aches and
pains and reducing swellings.
A wellknOWn authority states that
this mixture acts directly upon the
eliminative tissues of the kidneys:
cleanses their spongelke organs and
gives them power to sift and strain
the poisonous waste matter and uric
acid from the blood which is the cause
of rheumatism.
If your back or sides ache and you
suspect kidney trouble it would be
wise to try this for a few days.

Mr. HERSEY of Iiouton: Mr.
Speaker, | cannot understand why one
city should he exempt from this very
good law. Delinquent tax payers ar"
published in the annual reports of the
city or town and the fact that they are
published is a great incentive to pay
their taxes, and | cannot understand
why the tax payers of Portland should
want their names suppressed While the
tax payers of every other city and
town should be published.

mand against the treasury of our State

there is nothing in that bill that any

a previous Legislature.
Mr. PATTANGALL: Mr.. Speaker, I
would suggest that there might be a way
out of that. If the county of Cumber-
land desires to reimburse him out of
charity and kindness, this act could be
so amended as to authorize the county
commissioners Of Cumberland county to
pay him the amount Of money which the
Cumberland delegation say is due him;
then the money would be paid by the
party who would have paid him II the
mistake had not been made.
The question being on the motion to

| don't like that bill but 7 am going to

The question being on the adoption
