Representative Hostotler ot Buffa

tho one bit of legislation which la
asked of the legislature by the retail
ers of the stnte. Representative Van
Patten said it would harm no honest
man, hitting only the "deadbeats."
Representatives Porter of Omaha
and Schmidt ot Sounders county, de
clared it dangorous legislation in a
tinio of social unrest, insistnig that
it would work a hardship to honest
Vorklngmen. Representative Bar.
ton Green of Lancaster county re
marked that morchants do not have
to give credits, that they do so In
order to make money and should not
be given additional protection by
law. This bill was drawn at the re
quest of retail dealers of the state, it
provides, that 75 per cent or wages,
rees and moneys due heads or families
shall be exempt from attachment. It
providesfurther that salaries of labor,
ing men shall be attachable only for
necessities.
Osteopaths In Nebraska won their
fight for Increased privileges in
practice when by a voto of 21 to 8 the
senate passed S. F. No. 89, by Peter

Under tho provisions of tho bill all
osteopaths are placed under the Juris,

which has tho right to license such
doctors or revoke a license nt anytime
it sees fit.

Representative Reynolds of Omaha,
permitting honorable discharged sol
diers, sailors and marines to attend

of tuition or matriculation fees. On
Reynolds' suggestion, tho committee
amended it to exclude conscientious
objectors who may havo been honor

senate has not only not passed this
bill, but indefinitely postponed it and
notico at that negative action wa3 sent
to the house, instead of treating it
as a bill defeated in the scnato, the
houso treated It as a bill passod by

FAVORED
H. R. 297, known an tho McLeod bill
to license clgaretto dealers and strlctlj
prohibit the sale o' cigarettes to an
person under 21, replacing the prosent
dead lottor statute, is now at the hnR
way milcpost of its Journey through
the legislature. It passed the house
by the vote of 52 to 32, with alxtcen
members absent.
The bill has had a good many ups
nnd downs, nnd for a tlmo the
chances seemed to be against it, but
its champions worked hard to over
come antagonistic sentiment, and
the vote taken on Its passago by the
houso showed that they have suc
ceeded In a Lugo measure. Thoy
demonstrated their fairness by
amending it to remove objections
that had been raised, and they be
lieved that In Its present form tho
bill furnishes a means of dealing
effectively with the clga'rctte ovll in
Nebraska.
Under tho terms of the bllllt Is un.
lawful to sell or give away cigarettes
to anyone under 21 years of age, or to
dlsposo of them to persons of that ago
or over without a license granted by
the city or vlllago clerk In a municipal
ity, and by tho county clerk outside.
The license must bo renewed annually
and may bo revoked for non-compliance
with the law.
Retail dealers must pay $100 a
year in Omaha, $50 in Lincoln and
other first class cities, and $25 else
where. Tho wholesale license fees is
fixed nt $300. Stiff lines are provided,
for any licensed dealer who infringes
tho law, as well as for any ono who
sells or gives away cigarettes without
a legal permit.
It' Is further provided that a minor
obtaining cigarettes by representing
himself as over age shall be guilty
of a misdemeanor, punishable by
fine of $5 to $25.
Only two votes cast by Jorry How
ard of Douglas county and Mr. Laurlt.
sen of Cuming were recorded agnlnst
S. F. 24, tho Slman foreign language
bill,' on Its final passago by the house.
The affirmative voto on the bill wns 80,
there being 18 absentees. Opponents
of the companion bill, II. R. 04, the
Burney measure regulating parochial
and private schools, were able to mus
ter 11 against it, while 75 were cast
for it. The negative included Messrs.
Allen (Gage), Bothea, Briggs, How
ard, Lauritsen, Morrison, Nelson,
Rodman, Sturdevant, Traccwell and
Wright. Both the Burney and tho
Siman bills havo tho emergency claus
es attached, which will mako them ef
fective as soon as passed by both
branches of tho legislature and sign
ed by the governor. Tho Burney
bill still has to run the gauntlet
of tho state senate, while tho Siman
measure must go to a conference
committee boforo its exact form will
bo agreed upon.
II. R. 514, Rodman's bill to repeal
the law which permits tho appoint
ment of trust companies as executors,
administrators and guardians, was nn
dor flro before the Judiciary commit
tee, Representatives of the trust
companies said that the bill, If mado
into law, would put them out of busi
ness, nnd would take away the
characteristic function of trust com
panies and they would havo to stop;
that the companies represent princi
pally widows, children and Incompe
tents, nnd are largely made their legal
representatives by will, and that the
legislature ought no to deny to a
citizen the right to havo a trust com
pany look after his' estate. Others
said that tho trust companies wero
not as expeditious in closing up tho
estates becauso thero was a profit to
the trust company to string out set
tlements for six months or more. In
most cases this was cleverly done,
and the heirs did not know It. Somo
thought it was fundamentally wrong
to allow anybody to act as executor
who had nn Interest In tho settlement
of an estate co'unter to that of tho
heirs. No other corporation has this
privilege, and thoy objected to the
present law as clas3 legislation.
A commltteo of business men of
Omaha wont to Lincoln to appear be

teo of tho legislature In behalf or
House Roll No. 88, the boxing bill.
This commltteo appeared boforo tho
commltteo to protest against the amend
ment suggested by Representative
Bnron Green, and asked tho commlt
teo to put out tho original bill as it
stood, and advised tho committee that
thoy wero not Interested Mn anything
but a clean, open und nbovo board bill
to lcgallzo boxing In this stato. Un
der tho amendment suggested by
Green, the" law would be violated by
tho Y. M. C. A., K. or C. and tho Oma
ha Athlotlc club In caso thoy staged
any boxing exhibitions, duo to tho act
that tho amendment called ror no feo

cause Is very often a form of cntarrh
that settles In the delicate membranes
of the feminine organs. When theso
organs arc Inflamed, the first symp
tom Is backache, accompanied by bear
ing down sensations, weakness, un
healthy discharges, irregularity, pain
ful periods, Irritation, headache and
a general run-down condition. Any
womnn in this condition Is to be pit
ied, but pity does not cure. Tho
trouble cnlls for Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, which Is a separate and
distinct medicine for women.
It is made of roots and herbs put up
Without alcohol or opiate of any kind, for
Dr. Pierce uses'nothing else in his pre
