BANKING BILL
Guaranty Measure Comes Up
for Final Passage Today.

Omaha and Lincoln Charter Bills Ad.
vanced to Head Of Calendar.

Lincoln, March 1S.-The bank guar.
anty bill will probably be passed be.
fore the day ends and Governor Shall
lenberger is expected to sign it to-
morrow. Despite the strongest kind
OF opposition, during which the Re.
publicans charged the majority with
gag rule, the latter forced the meas.
ure, under suspension OF the rules, to
engrosSment for third reading, which
will make it possible to dispose of the
bill today. Mr.. Bryan himself ap.
peared at the capitol during the ses.
sion and the influence of his presence
doubtless assisted in bracing up any
lukewarm Democrats in the upper
house.
The banking bill was brought be.

ate as quickly as the committee amend
mentS came from the printer. The
Meyer amendment, substituting S. f.
290 for the bill, was voted down on
party lines. Then followed amend.
ment after amendment, as the bill was
being read. Most of these amend
ments put the administration of the
law into the hands of the state bank
ing board, instead of the governor, but
they went out in fast order. The
amendment of Senator Hatfield of An.
tclope, making Immediate" payment
a feature of the measure, received no
better treatment
Finally Senator Raymond of SCOTS

declared it was evident the sentiment
of members was fixed and moved the
committee rise and report, which car.
ried, and Senator Ransom moved a
suspension of the rules and engross.
ment for third reading, which was
quickly adopted.
The Republicans claimed they had
been gagged" but received little
sympathy from the majority. It was
evident that the latter was determined
to force final action and they showed
evidence of their organization by car.

Slow Digestion
A Frequent Form of Stomach
Trouble Readily Cured by
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.

This complaint constitutes one OF the
most common forms OF dyspepsia. 1t Is the
bane of those who ignore natural laws,
and forget that the healthy action Of the
stomach Is dependent on the condition of
both body and mind. Those whose pur-
suits oblige them to pass much OF their
time within doors: men OF letters, and OF
business, whose minds are seldom perfect
ly relaxed; administrators, spectators,
hnanciers, n the various professional
men fall ready victims to 1t.
Slow digestion occurs in persons of all
temperaments and habits. but oftenest in
those Of irritable. or nervous disposition,
and anxious aspect of countenance, who
are popularity characterized as 'dyspeptic
looking" Eating too rapidly is a com
mon exciting cause OF the disorder, as Is
also imperfect mastlcation of food from
loss of teeth.
There is also a deficiency of the gastric
Juices. and an insufficiency OF the motor
an muscular, or churning movements of
the stomach walls, and the food remains
entirely too long In this organ, instead OF
being passed down into the small intes-
tine at the proper time.
Even a dinner not exceeding the ordi-
nary limits is followed at varying inter
feeling Of weight and oppression In the
stomach. For several hours afterward the
person experiences decided discomfort, and
should even a light supper be taken. hor-
rible nightmare and troubled dreams are

There Is really no necessity whatever
FOR depriving ones self of the pleasures
