Montpelier. Vt, oct. IL
The employers liability bill. favored by
the platform Of both parties. was intro
duced IN the Senate yesterday by Mr..
Gordon Of Barre. The bill does not diff
fer materially from some on the same
subject introduced two years ago 1t
was drafted after conferences with rep
resentatYes Of the manufa cturers and
Workmen OF Barre and is believed to be
reasonably satisfactory to both parties.
McCuen OF Nergennes presented a
measure Of general interest, TO permit
the exchange of railroad mileages for
newspaper advertising. II is identical
with the bill introduced two years ago.
such legislation as is proposed is in the
interest of neither the railroads nor the
newspapers. The railroads refuse to ad-
Vertise if they have to pay in cash and
the travelling public suffers in conse-
quence. The opposition Of John w Red
mond' chairman Of the public service COM
mission was largely responsible for the
defeat Of the bill two years ago.
Sternberg Of Stannard asks to have the
game law changed so that deer may be

In the attempt to restrict the liquor
traffic the legislature of 1905 took from

privilege of shipping liquor into other
towns. Webster of Swanton has intro
duced bill to permit the delivery OF
such goods to common carriers.

Montpelier, VT, oct. 10.


Among the four bills that came into the
House Wednesday was one introduced by
Billings of Woodstock which aims to
place Nliddlebury college on the same
footing as the University Of Vermont as
regards aid from the state 1t asks for
the same appropriation, a part Of which
is to be used in paying the tuition and
college expenses Of 80 students, $4,000 for
the maintenance Of department Of ped
agugy and the remainder for extended in
struction.
Cory Of Montpelier proposes to in
crease the salaries Of public service com
mlssioners to $17OO and give the chairman
$1,000 which is none too much, the
work requires nearly all the time Of the
commissioners. He would also have the
state make provision for an office with
proper equipment. The nominal Office of
the commission is In Montpelier. The
chairman and clerk live i'm Newport, one
commissioner in Barre and the third in
Wilmington. 1t is necessary, II their files
and records are to be kept in good shape,
that the commission have an Office IN the
town where one OF its members pre-
ferably the chairman, lives that the
steadily accommodating amount Of ma
tcral may be properly filed and indeXed
so as to be available on short notice The
alternative seems to be to require the
commissioners to live in Montpelier and
to provide proper quarters at the state
house
a few years ago a commission was APP
pointed to investigate the system Of book
keeping I'm the auditors Office and rec
ommend and install new one. This was

DRINKS LONG
 HORN" AND |S
 MENTAL WRECK
Sad Case of Young HumphrieS Which Results from Pooling With Alleged Temperance Liquor of Oklahoma.

Suffering from the effects Of the deadly Long Horn.' the beverage sold by Oklahoma druggists to evade the prohibition laws. NJ. E. Humphries, of Lowell. but 22 years cid, has been placed in the territorial insane asylum at Phoenix. having been taken there recently by Deputy Sheriff Allie Howe of Tombstone.
 Humphries for the past two years has been a resident of Lowell. Judge Murphy and Lowell officers have dur ing hat time been frequently called to lock Hunphries up temporarily un- til the effects of whiskey has worn off. Every time he would take drink or two of whiskey he became affected with violent insanity, breaking furni- ture, smashing windows and injuring those who came within his reach He would frighten his mother and sisters un il they would appeal tc the officers to lock him up flor safe keeping
 Finally, on a recent rampage more violent than any Of the others, it was decide that the only way to cure him was to place him in an insane asylum. where it is believed a course of treat ment. now being administered, will remove in time ,he effects of the temperance drink of Oklahoma.
 Three years ago at Enid. Oklahoma. Humphries and two companions, be coming imbued iwth a desire to i'm bibe. purchased three bottles of the connection known as Long Horn" and consumed it al one sitting. One of the young man died within a week from its effec-s, while Humphries and the other lay between life and death fer weeks.
 An examination of the Long Horn by Enid chemists showed it contained large quantities of cocaine and other drugs enough to kill in ordinary man when taken with liquor in such quanti- ties as men desiring Q get drunk or dinarily consume.
 Humphries never was himself since his encounter with Long Horn.' The stuff left a violent craving for whis- key. Whenever Humphries obtained enough to purchase the liquor in any amount he would immediately become crazed. It is hoped the treatmen. ai Phoenx will restore his shattered mentality.
