tude and importance that ] do not be-
lieye that they can be properly dealt
with during the time of an ordinary

therefore recommend that a commits

The Death Of Senator Dolliver.
The state was, greatly shocked at
the news of the death of Senator Dol
liver, which occurred on the evening
of the 10th day of October last, at his
home in Ft. Dodge. AT the time of his
death he was representing our state,
as It's senior member in the United
States senate and his death caused a
vacancy which have filled by the
appointment of Hon. Lafayette Young.
AS you are aware, his appointment
lasts only until your, honorable body
fills the vacancy or adjourns without
filling it.
There has been much talk about the
legislatures withholding action on the
matter of electing a senator and pro-
viding for a special primary so that
the people may express their prefer
ence with reference thereto. The law
clothes you with all the authority
necessary to act and enjoins upon you
the responsibility of filing the vacancy
and trust that you will do so in due
time.

Polk County Lady q
Sues Railroad For
Heavy Damages,

With damages claimed as $l2.OO0
suit was instituted in the United
States court yesterday by Hilton
Hampton rs attorney for the plain.
tin, Mrs. Lydia Blount Of Eagle
Lake, Fla. against the Atlantic
Coast Line as defendant company.
The plaintiff is the mother OF Mr..
Blount, an employe of the Citizens
Bank and Trust Company Of Tampa.
The cause for action is alleged to
be that Mrs. Blount. who is sufferer
from rheumatism to the extent that
she is obliged to use an invalid's
chair, was returning to her home by
train last August and the employees
Of the road sought to assist her when
she arrived at her destination, but
she was dropped to the tracks and
received fractures of both legs.
The railroad is incorporated under
the laws of Virginia and this. to-
gether with the fact that issues are
joined with less delay than In the
state courts, accounts for the reason
as to why the present case was
started in Judge I.Ocke's tribunal.
