The quicker a cold is gotten rid of the ' less the danger from pneumonia and other serious diseases. Mr. B. "W. L. Hall , of "Waverly , Va. , says : I firmly believe Chamberlain's Cough Remedy ' j to ba absolutely the best preparation on s the market for colds. I have recommended - ( mended it to my friends and they all I vvith.me. . For sale by Chapman , ! fcb Predicted That Legislature Will UF8. REFERENDUM ALSO HI TROUBLE Lincoln , Jan. 24. Probably the most important action of the legislators last week v/as an agreement of the county opticnists in conference on the form of a county option bill to be intro duccd. This bill promises to be an nil absorbing subject with the legis hiture and friends of the measure de sired to agree -on a bill and to avoid the introduction of a multiplicity on the same subject. The' drys , in an in formal caucus which was not binding upon any one , agreed to a short form of a bill , one that will merely amend two sections cf the Slocumb law so that county board and towns maj grant licenses only when the people of a county by a vote permit the grantin ? of licenses. Twenty per cent of the voters is required on a petition to sub , HENRY SCHEELE. mit the question of licensing saloons in a county and the proposition must be at a r.pecial election. The propo sition cannot be voted on oftener than i once in three years. Senator Eartling of Otoe , who has the deciding v.ote in the senate on county option , according to the way the members are now said to stand , at tendee1 the dry conference and re mained throughout the proceedings on the sub'ject , bit it was announced for his benefit that the action of the meeting was not binding upon those present. Pie announced that he was in a peculiar position , that he was elect ed on the Republican ticket , but that the Republican county convention , which amounts to a convention of his district , was silent 011 the question , .yet the county v/as carried by Dahlman by a majority of 420. -Republican state platform declares for county op tion. It is predicted in many quarters that Senator Eartling will vote against county option when the test comas. It Is also said the house will probably fail to pass s'iph a bill , although a few members in that body have not made their position known. The hottest fight of the session Is expected on county option , and next In importance femes a bill to amend the constitution to provide for the making of laws and idoption cf constitutional amendments by the initiative and referendum. Referendum in Trouble. Friends of t.ho referendum contend that some members who pretend to favor such a bill , at heart desire a bill that will make it difficult to adopt new laws and constitutional amend ments by the referendum. Those so accused reply lhat they desire to "pre vent the passage of a bill that will In flict upon the voters a ballot seven feet long and a multiplicity of propositions ' tions at any one election , such as was complained of In South Dakota last fall. The average percentage of voters necessary to submit a proposition In most states where the referendum Is In force is 8 per cent. Albert of Platte , the leading Democrat of the senate , proposes to require 30 or 40 per cent , or to leave all of the details of the initiative and .referendum system , after It is engrafted upon the constitu tion , to future legislature to determine by enactments. ; . It is admitted that some sortof ! an Initiative and referendum bill must be passed at this session of the legislature ' ture , because both political -parties are \ledged \ in favor of it. Sunday Baseball. The indications are favorable for the passage of a bill to permit cities and towns to regulate and to prohibit or permit the playing of lawn tennis , pelf or baseball in city limits ! The Bartling bill. S. F. 36 , was discussed In the senate anB referred back.to tne Judiciary committee for some slight changes. It was surmised that some Benator might want to amend the bill p and spoil it entirely by moving to In clude seven-up or croquet or some oth er game. There is talk of the drys a supporting : Sunday baseball bill if they can get in return any votes for a county option bill. Two years ago n Representative Scheele of Seward , the Edovcate of "sunshine unt liber-r-tyj" came very near going home with a Sunday baseball bill hanging to his belt , but he did not. b little has been atcttmplisiea during : the preceding weeks of the leg islature , less may be accomplished this week. This is sure to prove true in the senate on account cf the absence DJ ! the public lands and buiulin s com niittee on a tour of t e state to vis i state institutions. The senate cooi- rnittee comprises , Reagan , Kohl , Volpp Tibbots , Banning , ' Wilcox , McGrew , Eartling and Varner. The ccmmiitae left Lincoln today and will return Friday afternoon after visiting stat- institutions at Omaha , Wayne , Nor folk. Grand Island , Kearney and Uast ings. Each institution where the committee visits is supposed to fur nish plenty of fried thicken and other refreshments suitable to a legislator. Governor is Busy. Governor Aldrich sent messages , messages on two n nor matters wnich he wants taken up , one for an e : : tra tcod inspection appropriation and the other for a memorial to be sent to congress on the founding of a na tional park in Gage county. The park is to be established as a monument to Galusha A. Grew and will ba on the site of the Daniel Free man homestead , the first homestead ever taken out under the national homestead law. The bill for it was introduced in congress by Representa tive Hinshaw. The ffovornor advised the appoint ment of either 13. H. Ecgole or R. J. Kilpatrick of Beatrice to take the message to congress. When the messages were presented to the senate , Jansen of Gage moved that the wishes of the governor be carried out as soon as possible and that , member be appointed to present the petition in Washington. Bartos or Blackstone. Senator Eartos of Saline , who is something of a scrapper , began kick ing when he svas a young man in the law school of the university of Nebras ka and has kept it up ever since. He was known in school as the youth who stabbed Blackstone when Blackstone was absent and could not defend him self. The ether day Mr Eartos met Chief Justice Reese , who was dean of the law college when Eartcs was a students. They talked over old times and particularly one incident. One morning after Mr. Bartos had just returned from Wilber , where he had attended a dance given by the St. James club , he was about to fall to sleep in the class room. "Mr. Bartos , " said Dean Reese , please tell the class what municipal law is aslefinod by Blackstone. " Bartos aroused himself and arose. "Municipal lavhe said , "is a rule of civil conduct as prescribed by the su- preme powsr of the state. " "Very good as far as you have gone , " said the dean. He then called on another young man to give the def inition. The answer was : "Municipal raw is a rule of civil conduct as pre scribed by the supreme power of the state , commanding that which is right and prohibiting that which Is wrong. " "I do not think , that definition is good , " exclaimed Bartos. Dean Prose slapped bis open book shut , folded his arms and looked over the class. "We will leave that definition of Black- stone's which has stood the test of centuries , " he said , "now being slabbed Jn the heart by Bartcs , until tomorrow morning and then let the class decide whether Bartos is right or Blackstone is wrong. " The next morning in the class Ear tos came loaded to the guard to put Blackstone out of business , and those present say he came very near doing it. He was proud of his knowledge of Latin and he recited in that tongue the dcfiiiHicn given by Cicero , which cor responded with his own. "You farm ers , " he said , turning to the young men in * the ctass , "do not know what that means , but pretty soon I will give it to you in English. He did so , and also quoted from other authorities that had criticised the Blackstone defini , tion. To-this clay , Bartcs and Blaek- stone nre standard authorities in the university law collage of Nebraska. Thirteen New.Bills In. Thirteen new bills were introduced in the house and there was a short pession of the committee of the whole with Gerdes as chairman. The pur chase of Cobboy's statutes became again fi point of controversy and after .he committee of the whole had rec oinmende.d that the bill pass which provides for their purchase , several members tried to get a reconsidera- The new bills in the house included the new charter for South Omaha , which was introduced by Bulla ; two measures to prevent throwing of sharp objects In tT.e roads to injure automo bile tires , -.r.'l two retlistricting bills. Bushee of Kimball introduced the 1 Koaglrml hill in the house , and Matrau h of ? 5arJ30n ] brought up r.n independent measure. In the senate several new bills were 'ntrodv.ced and the , absence of nine members did not prevent the passage of important measures. Among these were H. R. 91 and 92 ( the appropria tion bills ) . S. F. 26 , Skiles' bill raising the wages of Jurors'from $2 to § 3 per day ; S. F. 3 , giving unincorporated leligious bodies the right to sell real estate , and S. F. 2'4 , which amends the code to a'low an appeal from a deoiuion in which the awarded dam ages are only $1. and S. F. 9 , which is bill to ratify the constitutional amendment for a federal income tax. The relative merits of San Francisco and New Orleans were thrashed out bofqtti the committee of the house on Lliis question at the Royal hotel last , ' n'ght. Representatives of the two expositions - P positions are on the ground.
