During the rush of the last few days of the legislature Trenmore Cone, chief clerk of the house, did not want to take the time to have the bills and amendments printed in regular form and therefore bought a mimeograph and the coples of all measures for each member were struck off on this. The daviight saloon bill was one of those “printed” of the mimeograph. “The produét of a mimeograph machine may be printed matter,” sald Waiter P. Thomas, attorney and member of the lower house, “but. the courte have ruled that typewritng (& not printing and mimeo- graphing is quite similar te typewriting. 1 would ruther rest a case on the printing of the blll than on the possible conflict with the Slocumb, law.” Man Says Girl Whipped Him George P.

The Omaha warehouse company and the busi- ness men interested in the storage move- ment in Omaha did not require growers to sign contracts that they would send any specified amount of wool too Omaha. Chi cago required this and now it is sald the wool must either go there for storage or the company can collect the storage om the amount of wool contracted. This puts the growers in another peculiar position. If 23 cents is offered by the dealer and it is satisfactory, the growers are still com- pelled to pay a storage charge in Chicago.
