over seven weeks was the span ot
life enjoyed BY the Watkins county
unit bill Its skein OF destiny ran out
to the last ravcling In the Kentucky
senate, when IL died a quick and
painless death, the process being
known as 'indefinite pOstponement,' u
only one OF the many ingenious aud
tortuous underground mazes into
which the "third house" Is able Ia
conduct its victims. never more to
return to earth.
The vote on the measure was 16
to ~. There was no misunderstand-
ling as to the outcome OF that vote
There was no flinching on either side.
The anti-optionists had the votes. and
the men who voted with them knew
that they were killing the bill Just as
surely as If 1t had been killed In open
session.
How They Voted.
Their constituents also will know
exactly how they voted. The vote
was as follows:

The first three, whenever present,

Senator Salmon on several occasions,
but not always.
Having disposed Of the Vice and
Watkins bills, there remains only
one bill to be put out OF the way by
the liquor interests; the WaggOner
measure, now safely enscouced in a
favorable position on the calendar of
the house.

After ii passes the house this bill
will go to the senate, where the dry

account of the heavy payments made
the last few days in September. The.
lower court entered an order removing
