Legislative Notes. The senate organized yesterday with out any friction, Joe Simon being elected on the first ballot according to program, .In the house the committee on creden tials got in a wrangle, and when the house met a- 4 o'clock, it was not ready to report, nor did it get ready last night. The matter of the speakership at pres ent it doubtful, with the chances seem iogly in favor of Benton. The Republi cans of tbe senate held a caucus to de cide pon tbe number of clerka and their salaries. It was decided to greatly the state capitol at noon yesterday, and j each cast his ballot for William McKin ley for president and Garrett A. Hobart for vice-president of the United States. The votes were certified, and copies made in triplicate, one of which was mailed to the vice-president of the United States, one will be deposited with the judge of the United States court of this district, and one will be sent by special messenger to the United States. Hon. T. T. Geer was elected messen ger, and will start on his mission in time to reach Washincton by Monday, January 25th. General satisfaction is expressed over toe selection ot Mr. Lieer as messenger, as it is considered a well-earned honor. The messenger is allowed 25 cents mile age each way, which will create a fund of $700, or more. After paying the mes senger's expenses, the remainder will be divided among the four electore. tions, and take action on the matter 6f passing two ordinances, one licensing the sale of fresh meats, and the other licensing liquor sellers, the ordinance, being framed to include drugstores in the list. The ordinance licensing the sellers of freBh meats provided that all persons selling meatB in quantities less than the whole carcass should pay a license of $25 per year. This had been referred to the finance committee, which made a verbal report suggesting an amendment that beef might be sold in quantities not less than one-quarter, and recommend ing the passage of tbe ordinance as amended. Messrs. Phirman and Chris man, representing the butchers, each at the request of the council, made a state ment concerning tbe matter, as did also Councilman Wood The team ran a short distance, when tho tongue of tha wagon dropped down, stopping it almost instantjv,. Mrs. Bolton was thrown clear over a barbed 'wire fence, and was pretty Beriously bruised and hurt, but fortunately no bones were broken.

The traveling public will regret ex ceedingly to learn that Truman Butler has resigned his position is purser on the Regulator. His genial disposition, affable manner and care In looking after the comfort and welfare of the passen gers has made him a universal favorite. We cannot say moreyiest our wtak words of praise and commendation be taken as flattery, aiid yet we realize that those who know Truman, know that aught we might say would be short of what should be 'said. The company has lost a splendid officer, and the pa trons of the boat will miss bis genial presence and hold bim long in kindly remembrance. DIED. uu4v v. v-wic ti auuarv 12, 1897, Mr. G.

Tho ordinance licensing the 'sale of liquors was then read, and being placed upon its final passage, the petitioners appeared by couneel, A. S. Bennett, and the rernonstrators by If. S. Wilson. The latter took the position that under the charter the city council had author ity only to license bar-rooms, tippling houses, and drinking shops, and could not regulate the sale of liquors in drug stores or anywhere else where it was sold by the bottle, and not drarik in the house. He also argued that under the terms of the license to saloons or drink ing shops, no minors or women could be allowed in them, and that the drug stores, if licensed, would fall under this prohibition. Judge Bennett presented tbe other side of tbe case, claiming that under the charter of 1895 tiie city could regulate the sale of any commodity. On going to a vote the council stood four for and four against, so the ordinance failed to pass. The recorder was then on motion instructed to draw up an or dinance, licensing the eale of liquors by he bottle or in quantities less than one gallon, where it was not to be drank in the place where sold, and fixing tbe amount at $150 per year. the family residence Wednesday morn ing at 10 o'clock, after which tbe body j There being no further business, the win uoiuMjrrea , uuu fellows' ceme-fcoundi adjourned.

Everybody is cordially invited to attend the meetings every Saturday evening, Tbe Boyd school re opened the first Monday after the holidays, with all the pupils present, and several from the sur rounding vicinity who have moved to that place so as to have the benefit of a winter school. The school is under the management of Mr. Roy Butler, a young man who will spare no pains to make tbe school a success. The Liberty High school, now under tho management of Mr, W. L, Harring ton, is flourishing. The school is for the benefit of the older pupils who wish to take up higher studies than are taught in the common district school, and those who are uttending are making very rapid progress, The country near Boyd can boast of a I practical joker as well as The Dulles. Last triday evening while some of the young people were gathered at one of the neighbors to practice their parts for Saturday evening's programme, some one wired some of the gates, through which they would have to pass on their way home, but they were not smart enough to get away with it, for they were detected and tbe next morning bad tbe pleasure of unwiring the gates them selves, The next time they will be careful to see that no one la watching or them, "Pat," Jacobson Book & Music Co.
