8-ROUR BILL PASSED.;
STRIKE ORDER RESCINDEO
HARDWICK ONE OF TWO DEMO
GRATIS WHO VOTED AGAINST
1T BITTER DEBATE.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.-The
house bill which will be known as the
Adamson eight-hour law was passed
bv the senate a few minutes after b
o'clock this evening. 1t was not
changed in any particular. The vote
was 43 to %. The Underwood
amendment empowering the inter
state commerce commission to fix
wages and the hours of labor was
killed by vote of 81 to ID.
The strike was called off at 8:45
o'clock tonight. President Garretson,
of the conductors, explained that
owing to the difficulty Of reaching
many of the officials of the brother
hoods on Sunday it had been decided
to send out the resembling order to-
night.
The senate's action followed day
of debate, much of which was con-
Quoted under circumstances singu-
Iarlv dramatic. 1t concluded two
weeks of suspense, during which the
nation had been confronted with
strike order set to become operative
on the great railroads on September
4th.
What Bill Provides.
The bill Incorporated only two OF
the six measures suggested by Pres
ident Wilson to congress. 1t pro-
vides:
1. An eight-hour day for all en-
ployes engaged in operating trains
on interstate railroads, with the same
paw as now given for ten hours work
and pro rata overtime. ,
2. A commission to be appointed
by President Wilson to Investigate
and report on the effects of the eight
hour day as applied to railroads.
The remainder of the legislative
program has been abandoned by this
session of congress at least.
The senate labored under much
tenseness and suppressed excitement.
Throughout the day there were fire.

ness and politics. The galleries were
filled with spectators who sat pa

This matter was brought up three

of which 1,400 are males. The proposed

Anothe, Extra Session.

The call OF the special session has
brought out through delving In old
territorial records, that there was once
. special session OF the territorial leg
islature called in April. 1871, for the
purpose of authorizing Yankton county
to issue bonds in aid of the Dakota
Southern railway. The action of the
legislature got INTO the courts, but be-
fore any final decision was secured,
congress passed an act validating the
work of the territorial legislature.
The bonds were issued and taken up
by eastern parties, and afterward re-
pudiated by the county, and the east
ern holders for years stood in the
way Of statehood for Dakota on &C.

Pierre.-Both houses adopted the
conference report on the primary bill
and adopted the bill as amended. The
law carries an emergency clause and
the Mcfarland presidential primary
feature. The emergency clause spe-
officially declares an emergency within
the meaning of the state constitution.
This ends the business OF the session.
One enactment entirely foreign to
primary laws came out in the special
legislative session. This was the sub
mission of a constitutional amendment
repeating the restriction which pre-.
vents the state fro mmaking expendi-
lures for internal improvements.
In its terms this resolution seeks
TO allow the state to make %appropria.
tons for highway improvements and
for mining coal on state lands, not
throwing down the bars beyond these
two items. The reason urged for &C.
ton at this time Is the Shackelford
bill, which has passed the lower
branch of congress. The Shackelford
bill provides government aid to states
on road work, applying only to states
which match the national apportion'
ments. 1t is a pork arrangement on
a large scale and very appealing to
legislators.
At the last general election the citi.
zens of South Dakota refused to re-
move the constitutional restriction
against internal improvements, but II

Not a Bite Of
Breakfast Until
You Drink Water
Says a glass ct hot water and
phosphate prevents illness
and keeps Us fit.

Just as coal, when it burns, leaves
behind a certain amount OF incom-
bustible material in the form Of ashes,
SO the food and drink taken day after
day leaves in the alimentary canal O.
certain amount Of ~indigestible mate
rial, which ii not completely eliminat-
ed from the system each day, becomes
food for the millions of bacteria which
infest the bowels. From this mass of
leftover waste, toxins and ptomaine-
like poisons are formed and sucked
into the blood.
Men and women who can't get feel
ing right must begin to take inside
baths. Before eating breakfast each
morning drink q glass Of real hot wa
ter with a teaspoonful Of limestone
phosphate in it to wash out OF the
thirty feet of bowels the previous days
accumulation OF poisons and toxins
and to keep the entire alimentary
canal clean, pure and fresh.
Those who are subject to sick head
ache, colds, bi%liousness, constipation,
others who wake up with bad taste,
foul breath. backache, rheumatic stiff
ness, or have a our, gassy stomach
after meals, are urged to get q quarter
pound OF limestone phosphate from
any druggist or storekeeper, and be-
gin practicing internal sanitation.
This will cost very little, but is suf1-
cient to make anyone an enthusiast
on the subject.
Remember inside bathing is more
important thar outside bathing, be-
cause the skin pores do not absorb
impurities into the blood, causing poor
health, while the bowel pores do.
Just as soap and hot water cleanses,
sweetens and freshens the skin, so
hot water and limestone phosphate
act on the stomach, liver kidneys and
