Jj THE LEGISLATURE^
When Speaker Cate was cho
sen presiding officer of the house
it was generally supposed that
he had accepted the Davis collar,
for the governor had an easy ma
jority in both houses. While
Governor Davis named several
committees, so as to give his
friends and one sister-in-law
clerkships, he was refused the
dictation of the ways and means
committee as well as the peniten
tiary committee, for he hoped to
stock the latter with friends who
would give Reese Hogins a black
eye. But all this would have
perhaps been overlooked had
not Cate taken the floor
and laid bare the trap into
which the governor sought to
invite the legislature and then
throw upon them the responsi
bility of the compromise he
wanted to make with the rail
roads, wherein Senator Clarke
was to get a $34,000 fee, big
enough many think to stand a
division with “Jeffie, old boy,”
for partnership services. Cate
is a probable candidate for gov
ernor and to attain his ambitions
he could not serve as a tool of
the present governor. The num
ber of those who have followed
“blindly” but now see the light
is increasing daily.

The house amended the insane
asylum appropriation bill with a
proviso that no one shall be em
ployed at the institution who is a
relative within the fourth degree
of any member of the board or
superintendent of the institution.
As the present secretary, John
H. Page, one of the governor’s
newspaper friends, whom he has
rewarded in various ways, now
has a brother at work at the asy
lum, the alteration of the senate
bill was declared to be a direct
slap at the secretary of the Dem
ocratic state committee,
ooo
Senator Rison has introduced a
bill to repeal the appropriation
measure recently enacted giving
$25,000 toward the state guard.

} WHY KIDNEY DISEASE
IS DANGEROUS.
—
| Neglect of the First Warning Symp
I toms is the Prime Cause of so
! Many Deaths from the Dreaded
Bright’s Disease.
_
| It is Easily Curable in the Early Stages.
Kidney diseases are so destructive to
| human life because they do not manifest
| alarming symptoms until the constitu
tion is seriously weakened and the
strength exhausted. Then, too often,
the remedies employed by many physi
cians are of indifferent or doubtful value,
and the patient rapidly sinks under the
disease. The wisest course is to apply a
reliable kidney and liver remedy on the
first appearance of the symptoms. A
little uneasiness in the small of the back,
digestive troubles, bowel irregularities
and disorder in the urinary organs are
matters of small moment in the estima
tion of strong men and women, yet they
have a serious meaning. They show
clearly that the kidneys are suffering
and need help, which must be forth
coming at once to prevent serious, per
haps fatal consequences. A few doses
of Prickly Ash Bitters at this time would
prove of incalculable value in restoring
the weakened organs to health. An
investment of one dollar in a bottle of
Prickly Ash Bitters when the disease is
yet in the early stage will save hundreds
of dollars in doctor’s bills, besides the
suffering that would surely follow should
the disease be allowed to fasten itself in
the body. The excellent curative power
of Prickly Ash Bitters is not confined to
the first stages of kidney disease. It is
equally ethcacious in severe or chronic
cases. Physicians have used it as a last
resort, in cases that defied their best
efforts, with 4he most brilliant results,
and it has shown its superiority over the
many so-called kidney cures, now being
loudly advertised, in instances innu
merable.
Accept no substitute. Insist on having
the genuine Prickly Ash Bitters with the
large figure 3 in red on the front label.
Sold at Drug Stores, $1.00 per bottle.
