The Little Things.
ITS much easier" observes Mr.. Tau
kaway, ito stumble over a mole Hill
than over a mountain"
The Topeka state journal., 1909-01-27

average legislature and lobby are on
the square and intend to do the right
thing to their state and constituents
and are glad to advise with men who
are posted on pending legislation.
They must get information from
some source or other as to the merits
Of measures and motives as Well as
to the good and bad bills which are
introduced at every session of the
legislature.
LAS an ex-member of the 1egisla-
ture I never had an outsider attempt
to influence my vote by corrupt
means and I believe that my exper-
ience is the same as the majority of
the members. 1 believe that the
members who are tempted by corrupt
lobbyists are those who place them
selves in such a position that it is
necessary that the lobbyist should at
tempt such means as a protection to
his interests or those represented by
himself. Every ex-member who
reads this. knows this statement to be
true
THE corrupt member who will
take advantage of his position to in
troduce vicious legislation will have
every advantage in the world If out
siderS who attempt to enlighten him
or protect their own interests are to
be bawIed out as a lobbyist every
time they appear on the floor of the
house or senate by such members
Il do not impugn the motive of
any one and am in favor of eliminat-
ing the corrupt lobbyist who makes
his living in this way. But I do be-
Iieve that where a legitimate business
is at stake that representatives of
such interests should be permitted to
appeal to the members of the
legislature in its interest without re-
fection.
Every business interest and it's
representative in the state should be
shown due consideration without be-
ing claSsed as a law breaker and
wrong doer. The passage OF such a
law as prevents a corporation or in
dividuaI from attempting to protect
his own interests is not in line with
good government and will build up a
machine which will be to the detri-
ment of the business interests Of the
state and nation"

NEVER WAS TEMPTED.
Frank Grimes Talks OF Experiences in
Legislature.

F. E Grimes. state treasurer for two
terms and a member of the house of
representatives for three terms. does
not believe in the passage of a drastic
anti-lobby bill by the legislature for
the reason that It will work a hard
ship on the business interests of the
state and at the same time place a
power in the hands of few members
of the legislature which will be dan
geroUs in the extreme
Mr.. Grimes feels that his experience
as an official of the state places him
in a favorable position to speak from
personal knowledge of the action OF
such a bill He claims that such a law
the power to wreck or fnjure many of
the legitimate institutions of the state
if they should so desire.
Speaking on this subject Mr.. Grimes
said: THE passage of an unfair lobby
bill will work great injury to the leg1-
innate business interests Of the state
and make it possible for such inter
eSts to be held up and destroyed by
future unscrupulous lobbyists, mem
berS, lieutenant governors and speak
ers of the house of representatives. A
strict anti-Iobby bill and its effects If
passed will be lasting and general
In my experience the most corrupt
lobbyist has been the member of the
session of the legislature bills are in
troduced for the purpose of holding up
an individual or corporation or for
revenge and some few for an actual
consideration L served three terms as

Insane Man Has a Fit Whenever He
Is Spoken To.

Kalamazoo. Mich Jan 27-Claus
Vanderwau was admitted as a patient
yesterday at the state insane asylum
here suffering from rare form of in
sanity. When the man is spoken to his
body becomes rigid and relief seems
to come only with the feeling that he
is entirely unnotfced- Even when left
alone and unobserved he changes his
position but little. In local court
room he stood an hour with one arm
outstretched never uttering a word or
moving finger. Food is administered
TO him at regular intervals by force.

on him and battered him with his
revolver and took his entire savings.
One bullet hit Brentic in the head
just above the right ear and came out
at the top of his head. He also has
a bullet in each arm near the Shout
der. Brentic says it happened about
6 o'clock this morning and he walked
nearly four miles after he had been
shot.
Sheriff Tedman and County Physi-
clan Belsher arrived from Townsend
at noon. Sheriff Tedman and dep
uty took up the trail on foot to Tos-
son with hopes of locating Holly
Brentic is in serious condition, with
slight hopes for his recovery.

TO WOUNDS
HOLDUP AND TWO VICTIMS OF
HIS REVOLVER ARE IN Sc
RIOUs CONDITION.

Omaha, Neb., Jan. 14.-Patrolman
L. A. Smith is dead, Detective w. G.
Deverecz is probably fatally injured,
Albert Clarke is fatally hurt and Bet
sy Smith is dangerously shot as the
result of an attempt by Clarke to hold
up Anna Wilson's place on North
Ninth street at an early hour today.
Clarke entered the Wilson place and
at the point of a revolver commanded
the inmates to hold up their hands.
At the same moment he snatched
diamond necklace from the neck of
the Wilson woman and escaped to
Clarke fired a shot into her shoulder,
inflicting a dangerous wound. Her
screams brought Patrolman Smith to
the scene. Clarke at once began
shooting at the officer, firing two
bullets into his body. Smith raised
himself to sitting posture and fired
twice. one bullet taking effect in the
leg.
The shooting occurred two blocks
from the police station. A squad of
officers began to search for the
wounded robber. He was found on
Douglas bridge by Detectives Deverecz
and Heitfeldt. AS soon as the Off
GERS came up Clarke began firing.
One bullet struck Deverecz in the
stomach, MORALLY wounding him.
Detective Heitfeldt then shot Clarke
twice. At the emergency hospital
Clarke said he came from Denver
three days ago.
