Clash Follows Passing of Lie During
Suffrage Debate House Kills Coun
ty Option Proposition for Another
Two Years.
Lincoln, March 23. Representative
W. J. Tayor of York assaulted Judge
Shoemaker of Omaha, a brother legis
lator, on the floor of the house during
a heated debate on the woman suff
rage bill. Tayor has worked hard to
secure passage of the measure, and
Shoemaker opposed it in a warm
speech. During the .course of his re
marks Shoemaker said that woman
suffrage in Wyoming had not curbed
gambling, to which Taylor remarked:
"I should think that would cause you
to favor the bill."
Shoemaker, livid with rage, shouted
"I deny that I favor rambling. The
gentleman has been Insulting and in
decent all through this session. It la
a dirty lie to say I favor gambling."
Taylor was quickly on his feet and
walking to where Shoemaker stood
struck the judge a blow on the head
with his fist and was preparing to con
tinue this treatmeut when a score of
members rushed between the combat'
ants. The house was quickly in an
uproar, and the speaker, who had
been on the floor, rushed to the chair
and with the aid of the sergeant-at-
arms .secured quiet after some etren
uous work.
Taylor was the first to apologize to
the house, which he did by admitting
that his conduct was "disgraceful and

The ,
Exceptional
Equipment
of the California Fig Syrup Co. and the
scientific attainments of its chemists have
rendered posaiblo the production of Syrup
of Figs and Elixir of Senna, in all of its
excellence, by obtaining the pure medic
inal principles of plants known to act most
beneficially and combining them most
skillfully, in the right proportions, with
its wholesome and refreshing Syrup of
California Figs.
As there Is only one genuine Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of Senna and as the gen
uine is manufactured by an original
method known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, it ii always necessory to buy tho
genuine to get its bcncficiul effects.
A knowledge of the above facts enables
one to decline imitations or to return them
if, upon viewing the package, the full namo
of the California Fig SyrupCo. is not found
printed on tho front thereof.
One important differnece between
Devoe Leadand-Zlne Paint and ord
inary hand mixed-paint or ready mix
ed paints is a difference you will
first notice in your pocketbook.
Where a given job will require,
say, 15 gallons of ordinary paint, the
work can often be well done with ten
gallons of Devoe; that's about the
proportion usually.
The best of It is, fewer gallons
make a better job of It; lasts longer,
costs less first and last.
Whatever painting you pay for
have it Devoe; be sure. Do you want

for the success which should mark
this effort. He told the people If
they had any criticism to offer to
withhold It until they could see the
matter In. the light of results. He
plainly told the church members that
this was their meeting and not his,
that he was just an extra harvest
