some very stringent reform legislation.
BY Senate bill No. 20, the present
local option law Of the state is very
materially strengthened. One of the
features Of the bill is that it requires
sworn affidavit before alcohol can be

alcohol for beverage purposes.
Senate bill No. 1873 prohibits the
selling of intoxicating liquors to
habitual drunkards.
Senate bill No. 256 prohibits any
minor from smoking cigarettes, and
prohibits the furnishing of them to a
minor by any person.
Senate bill No. 8, effective aft.
June 80, 1913, prohibits horse race
gambling, or making or selling pools
/ on horse races.
Senate bill No. 90 prohibits minors
under twenty years of aye to ente
aud play in billiard or pool halls
This law holds both the proprietor o
the billiard or pool hall and the mino

misdemeanor.
All of these laws carry stringen
penalties. All were signed by Gov
ernor Haines.

thoroughly gone over with the
President and his advisers, and
the measures of the house COM

been O. KID. as such. Tariff legis-
lation is to have the right Of way.
1t is said that if the tariff is dis
posed of reasonably early, Presi-
dent Wilson is anxious that cur
rency legislation shall be taken up
although he realizes that this is
question of such importance that
it cannot and should not be jamned
through Congress.
President Wilson received a
delegation of prominent women
few days ago, who told him that
they were voters-liked it, and
wanted other women to vote, in
other parts OF the country. DIR.
Cora Smith King, formerly of
Seattle, but now of the Capital
