SENATE CALLS FOR
' LOBBYISTS' NAMES
Resolution Passed in Upper
House Over Protest of
Moriariy.
SATURDAY HALF HOLIDAY
(Prom a SUIT Correspondent.)
Lincoln, Jan. 26. (Special.) Mem
bers of the, senate would like to know
who the lobbyists are who come to
the legislature to give the members
a tew ideas on what real legislation
should be. A resolution bv Hammond
that the secretary of state be request
ed to furnish each member with names
of all the lobbyists was adopted with
much gusto on a motion of Moriarty
to table. i
1 hrec members from the senate
and a like number from the house will
compose a committee to look into
the matter of accepting the good
roads appropriation of $1,650,000
which the government desires to do
nate to the state of Nebraska, if a
resolution sent up by Senator Mc
Allister of Antelope gets through at
the proper time. The resolution
points to the 'fact that it would be
foolish to allow the appropriation to
lapse and some other state get it.
The Melady boxing bill was ad
vocated in a resolution sent up this
morning. The bill has been introduced
in the house and appears to meet with
much favor.
Albert's Liquor Resolution.
Another resolution which brings up
tlieliquor question again was read,
being sent up by Albert of Platte. It
calls for a memorial to congress urg
ing that the law be changed so that
revenue collectors may mail to the
governor each month the names of
all parties -holding government liquor
licenses.
Every day mav not be Sundav hvr
and bye, but if a bill introduced by
Oberlies of Lancaster becomes a law
every Saturday' afternon will be a
legal holiday in Omaha and Lincoln.
Another bill, by Hammond, would
require state conventions to select
the presidential delegates of the re
spective parties and certify them to
the governor, who would appoint the
electors of the party winning at the
election. He would also have the fun
of appointing the messenger who
, would carry the tidings to Washing
ton at 25 cents per mile.
To Increase Commission.
Senator Albert wants the legal
business of the state expedited and
has introduced a bill providing for
six instead of the present three court
commissioners, to be appointed by
the supreme court, and draw a salary
of $3,600 a year instead of the present
$3,000.
The senate, adjourned at noon until
Tuesday.

How to Master
the Machinery
of the Body
(By N. B. Cook, M. D.)
The machinery of the body needs to
be oiled, kept in good condition' just
as the automobile or bicycle. Why
should the human neglect his own
machinery more than that of his
horse or his engine? Yet most peo
ple do neglect themselves. Their
tongue has a dark brown color, skin
sallow, breath bad, yet they fail to
see that their machinery needs atten
tion. Everybody should take a mild
laxative at least once a week. A
pleasant way to clear the tongue and
the highly colored water noticed in
the morning is to take a laxative
which will'cure the inactive liver and
biliousness.
A pleasant vegetable pill is made up
of May-apple, leaves of aloe, and
jalap, made into a tiny pellet and
coated wtih sugar. First put up by
Dr. Pierce nearly 50 years ago. Drug
gists sell these vegetable pellets in
vialssimply ask for Dr. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. '
If backache, scalding urine or fre
quent urination bother or distress you.
or if uric acid in the blood has caused
rheumatism, gout or sciatica, if you
suspect that you have kidney or blad
der trouble, write Dr. Pierce, at In
valids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., send a
sample of urine, and describe symp
toms. A physician and chemist will
examine it without charge and you
will be under no obligation whatever.
Dr. Pierce's Anuric tablets cannot fail
to help you, because, their action
flushes the kidneys of impurities and
puts strength into them.
Obtain a 50-cent box of Anuric
(double strength) today from your
druggist in town. From personal ob
servation in large hospital practice,
Anuric will give you speedy relief.
