The wrl(r spent a few hours at the state capital Monday, and had the pleasure of meeting many of those who served with us two years ago, and with whom we spent a few pleasant moment. Several of the members of the Louse two years ago are now members of the senate. The fact Is the legislature Is doing some good work of some of the best meas ures already Introduced do not lose out In the sifting committee room the last two weeks of the session. The time is up for the Introduction of bills, and It Is estimated that fully eight hundred have been presented In the house and over five hundred In tho senate. The chance of all those bills getting through Is very slim, and perhaps some that should go through will be lost in the shuffle. The capital removal question will lose out, even If It ever comes up again. That Is tho opinion of many who have heretofore been In favor of removal. Senator Panning wields considerable Influence In the senate and Is right In the front rank of the leaders of that branch of the legislature. In the house Hon. C. E. Mitzger Is one of the most prominent members and is a hard worker. He is very popular with all and there 13 no question as to his making good in the way of do ing good work for his constituents. Hons. W. II. Puis and Fred Nutzman, while unpretentious In their work, are both Incessant laborers and nre ever watchful to the interests of their section of the country and the people. Wo had the pleasure of an Interview with Speaker Kuhl, and he gave us the glad hand the same as ever. His elevation to the speakership does not swell his head In the least and we found him to be the same John Kuhl. Chief Clerk Richmond Is making good and Is very popular with all the members. He Is filling the position to the credit of himself and the legis lature. Take it all In all, we enjoyed our visit and was highly elated with the warm greeting tendered us by our friends, many of whom regretted that we were not with them in this session. .T.E.T0DD RETURN FROM CALIFORNIA From Tuesday's Dolly Mr. T. E.

After talking over the situation concerning Lester Wright with his father and brother yesterday after noon, County Attorney C. II.

NEW HOTEL BILL Enforcement of Its Provisions Will Cost $6,000 in Two Years The committee on miscellaneous subjects of the house, at a meeting held Monday night, discussed the compromise hotel bill agreed upon by representatives of the Nebraska Trav elers' association and the Hotel Keep ers' association, and It was reported after the meeting that the report thereon would be favorable to Its passage. The new measure embodies changes In the law agreed upon at a conference held by hotel men and travelers at Omaha on January 30. The bill prvldes for the establish ment of a hotel commission in this state, making the governor the hotel commissioner and placing upon him the duty of seeing that the law Is enforced. He Is required to appoint a deputy hotel commissioner, who shall be paid $1,800 a year, and the deputy may employ one stenographer at a salary of $70 a month. The deputy will hold the office at the pleasure of the governor. The bill provides for proper ventil ation In all hotels and restaurants, rroper lighting and proper sanitary conveniences. The legal size of bed sheets shall not be less than 99x90 inches. Clean and sanitary bed cloth ing is required. Public wash-rooms and clean towels must be provided in every hotel and restaurant. Much at tention is given to fire protection and specifications showing what Is re quired In the way of fire escapes, fire extinguishers, standpipe, etc., are giv en. Section No. 15, which may have been mutilated by amending, reads: "In every existing hotel exceeding fifty-five and not over one hundred feet In height, unless already pro vided with a three-inch or larger standpipe and in all buildings here after erected exceeding fifty-five and not exceeding one hundred feet In height shall be provided with a vertical standpipe of not less than four Inches In diameter." In buildings exceeding one hundred feet in height the standpipe must be six inches in diameter. The language used In this paragraph is the same as in the proceeding, with the exception of the height of building and size of standpipe. The size of the pipes, the manner of fastening and the number and size of openings are provided for. These standplpes must have openings for every floor and on top of the build ing, and must have Siamese auto matic valves at the bottom, properly adjusted to the pipe about one foot from the ground, set at an angle of forty-five degrees, and "all openings shall be toward the building." This latter provision mak make it difficult for fire departments to make coup lings to the standplpes, If carried out Violation of the law subjects hotel men to criminal prosecution, and the hotel may be closed where the law Is persistently violated. The bill, It Is understood, will be reported carrying an appropriation of $fi,000 for the blennlum. EARLY HATCHES OF Since coming off the press last evening with the startling announce ment that Mr. C. C. Wescott, the Plattsmouth chicken king, was out of the woods with his hatch of spring "broilers," the Journal has been re spectfully differed with in three dis tinct Instances In Its conjecture that Mr. Wescott had tho first hatch of the season. , , It was reported at the desk this morning that Colonel Bates' and Mike Stiles' biddies brought off little chicks two weeks ago, and Theodore Stuecklln's old Betting hen came off with her brood as long ago as a week. But these Just mentioned were com mon chickens, and what we Intended to say yesterday was that Mr. Wescott Is the first Butt-Orpington chicken breeder to bring off a hatch this sea son, that Is until we hear from some other person to the contrary. Mr. L. A. Moore went to Omaha on tho morning train today, where he was called on business for a few hours. III LEGISLATURE CET IN TOUCH WITH!

Mr. Cofield stated this morning on the street that he expected to be beaten In the first round, but that the matter would be appealed to the district court, and, if he had as good luck as he had In a similar suit not long ago In this state, he expected the matter would be dropped In the district court. The defendant claims that he 13 doing an interstate business and the constitu tion of .the United States 13 against his arrest and imprisonment for the debt. Another whirl was given to the wheel this morning when City At torney Ramsey filed a civil suit against Mr. Cofield for the collection of the sum of $100 occupation tax. The petition alleging in substance that the defendant canvassed, sold and delivered goods, wares and mer chandise In the city during the months of January and February, 1911, without having procured an oc cupation license or paying the tax of $10 per day, as the ordinance pro vides.

HORSES AND THEIR CURE Diseases of the kidnejs and urinary system in horses has been well known for more than 33 years, and have been described by various authorities, and as long ago as 1890 the Agricultural Department at Washington published accounts of the treatment of such diseases, an.t for more than 33 years W. D. Jones, of Plattsmouth, Nebraska, has suc cessfully treated all such diseases. More than 35 years ago John Fite gerald had a fine tea nigo dowu on the street in this city with the same form of kidney and urinary disease, both of which were effectually treated and cured by Mr. Jones. More thas. 13 years ago Mr. Holschuh had a fine team go down with the same disease, and upwards of 12 years ago Mr. Henry Kaufman had horses affected in like manner with kidney disease, and In each Instance Mr. Jones treat ed and cured the horses. Many other instances could be cited. Ask Mr. Rhoden or Mr. Eddie Todd or scores of other stockmen who have tried Jones' Kidney Medicine and Colie Cure. Any one who says that suck diseases have not been known more than five years is Ignorant of what he Is talking about. Jones' Cleansing Powder for purify ing the blood and stimulating the ap petite, Is especially valuable for horses at this season of the year. Jones' Llnainent for horses Is un excelled for cuts (especially barbwire cuts), and sore Bhoulders. Jones' Eye Lotion for weak eyes or blue eyes, and all eye diseases, has o super'or on the market. In all cases of cattle suffering from sore mouth and enlarged tongue caused from eating poisonous and Irritant plants In dry pastures, can be cured with twenty cents' worth of medicine given in the mouth of the suffering animal. . Farmers neglect the proper care of the horse's teeth, probably more thaa anything else in the care of their stock. Mr. William D. Jones Is pro pared to dress the teeth and render all necessary service in treatlug horses, cattle and other stock. All of the above medicines are pre pared by F. Q. FIcke & Co., riatts mouth, Nebraska, w here they may k obtained at any time. Y. n. JOXES. Headquarters at Manspeaker's Ban, Offico Telephone No. 76. Residence Telephone No. 89.
