Now they are thick as files about the capitol building. They have filled tho hotels to overflowing, and they have congested servico in the restaurants and cafes, You can sec at least a dozen lean- ing on the railing outside the senate f@nd house chambers at any time. ‘The rail is stressed almost to the breaking point and many of the legis lators fear that it will not break, Lobbyists are funny people, Un Uke most pests, you can’t kill them. ‘The murder law saves their lives, While rodents and other parasites Are unprotected. The discrimination is hard to understand. “An uncorked bottle gains no Votes” is one of the maxims of thelr rade. Another is, “As the bottles Hp so the lobbyist succeeds.” Both ake practiced, and from casual ob- gekvation it would be safo to say that doth are successful ‘There are all kinds of the breed at the gapltol, from the narrow-minded reformer who is trying to saddle his personal views onto the rest of the world, \o the highly paid corporation man who ts trying to unload taxes ‘of his company onto the rest of the world, ‘The refarmer works along differ. ent lines than the other lobbyists, So far as is known, he does not use} “Miquid assets,” Some of the lobbyists have moved | to Olympia for only a few days, while others brought several cases along.

The news was received with great apprehension by many who had in their possession certain liquors which had been declared contraband by a high edict of the nation. Many were the misgivings as the evening drew nigh and the feasting, drinking and merry-making began. And many folks fain would have waited until the following evening to continue the festivities, but the braver of the many parties scoffed at the idea and spake, saying: “If the federal officers demand entrance at our doops we can throw our bottles from the window into the courtyard below,” and the timid were thus reassured. ‘As the evening wore on the parties continued at their play and nothing | ‘occurred to cast a damper on the |spirit that existed. The hour of 10 drew nigh and from many windows and corridors could be heard the laughing of men and women, Suddenly as the clock struck 10 there was a mighty commotion, and a banging of doors and a rattle of the elevator, Following there came a deathly silence, even like unto that of the early hours of the morning. Members of the parties had heard the noise and were filled with fear. Suddenly in the courtyard below there came in rapid succession nolaen. “Plink, plank, plunk, plank,’* heard the breaking of bottles as they fell to the pavement. The silence re- mained unbroken. ‘The parties waited breathlessly for the federal officers, but they came not, And the persons who had thrown their bottles from the win dows were sore afraid that they had heen fooled by a noine of the elevator and there was not one among them general fund all money now in the wate nautical school, the medic or agai and U. 4, tocial hygion if Be toth ili) are expéctes to mast Uitte opposition, that did not long to regain the apirity that had been cast from the windows, And ihe evening continued and the federal offivers came not, and the Life of Solons’ Party Lost in Olympia Hotel |Report Favorably was|Child Uses Mouth who had thrown away the life oc tho parties.
