Cough medicines, as rule, contain q

If you will then put 2A ounces of

and fill it up with the Sugar Syrup, you
will have as much cough syrup as you
could buy ready made for $3.50. 1t

1t is splendid remedy, too, for
whooping cough, Group, hoarseness, asth-

Bill Beaten
to a FRAGILE

The senate yesterday afternoon sent
to defeat McCollochs bill providing
for the punishment Of persons detected
as parties to conspiracy. The bill was
fought stoutly, with Butler leading the
attack and Moser, Malarkey and
Thompson supporting the senator from
Hood River.
Butler said that bill was a danger
GUS measure, declaring that the fed
eral conspiracy statute had resulted in
innocent men being railroaded to Nc
Neils island. He said that parallel
cases could happen under the state
law, should the bill pass.
Butler was vehement in his declar-
alton that present laws Of the state
are broad enough to cover conspiracy
cases.
The bill was introduced by McCol-
loch, at the request Of District Attor-
ney Walter Evans Of Portland, and
is said to be favored by most of the
prosecuting attorneys of the state. 1t
was admitted by the supporters Of the
bill that 1t was primarily aimed at
paving combinations and conspiracies
at collusive bids and incidentally to
mako q crime n II pffOrts at pOllusion In
bids on public works or buildings.
Senator Joseph, though voting
against the bill, will move for its
reconsideration. A new bill will be
drafted, eliminating the portion cover
ing the question of a conspiracy to
commit a crime, and will touch only
upon the conspiracy to defraud.

LAWYER DEFENDANT SHOWS
WITNESS FRANKLIN UP IN
PRETTY BAD LIGHT-LATTER
BADLY MIXED ON HIS TESTI-
MONY.


Los Angeles, Cal, Feb. 6.-Clarence
Darrow and Bert Franklin continued
matching wits and verbal sparring
when the Darrow trial was resumed
yesterday. Darrow, who is charged
with bribing Robert Balm, q McNa-
mara Juror, conducted the cross-ex-
animation Of Franklin, who was de-
tective employed by the Mcnamara de-
fense during the trial that resulted In
the conviction of the brothers for dy-
namiting the Los Angeles Times
building, and who alleges that he
bribed Balm, upon Darorw's instruc-
tions.
Franklin's persistent failure to
recollect matters pertaining to the
first trial Of Darrow caused several
clashes between the witness and at
torney. Both were belligerent and
spoke loudly.
"How many men did you employ
while you were working for me dur
ing the Mcnamara trial?" was one Of
Darrow's first questions.
81 don't remember" was the reply,
"What was the largest numbers"
81 don't remember"
"Oh wait a minute, now" stormed
Darrow. II object to that. You told
me yesterday hcw many you employed
Can't you remember your testimony
mot on that point no sir" Franklin
stubbornly replied.
"Well, | gave you 5000 in Septem-
ber, 1911, didn't |, for paying for men
and automobiles%
81 don't know. can tell you exact
ly by referring to my bank book"
Here Darorw picked up a canvas
bound volume from the attorneys
table and asked Franklin to identify
it. Upon the witness replying that
It has familiar look" Darrow strobe
to the stand, and, flourishing the
book before Franklin's face, said
"Now do you recegnize?"
Franklin seized the book and at
tempted to open 1t. Darrow main
tanned his grip, and, while the two
engaged in tugging match, he de-
clared: 81 don't want you to lcol
inside that book"
Judge Conley sustained Darrow'i
point.
Nov, whose name is stamped OF

before Franklin's eyes, and the wit
ness read Lecompte Davis" Davis
was an attorney for the McNamaras.
"You had thai stamped there, didn'
you?" Darrow demanded,
