'Henry Roden, senator from the

address showed a thorough study
and .understanding of the" needs
of the country, lie complimented
the Valdez grand jury for the re
port they had rendered at their
recent session, and especially
wherein the report recommended
that the law be changed so that
a notary might not impeach his
own signature and thus set jus
tice aside. He called upon all to
insist upon the passage of an
light-hour law for men working
under ground, and, while he was
mindful of the judicial snags such
•lass legislation might meet with,
lie fell that he could draw up such
1 law that the eft'arts of all the
•orporal ions in the land could not
set aside as unconstitutional. He
uelieved in such a law: that it was
light and proper that an act gov
erning I lie hours of labor s’n> Pd
ie enacted
Mr. Roden said: “Unless I ca i
iavc enacted an act protecting the
-avings of I lit* people of the i'i_

is the people of that section feel
hat dishonest hanking in this

There was a man in our town,
And he was wondrous wise;
He swore {it was his pd|jcy }
He would not advertise.
But one sad day he advertised,
And thereby hangs a tale,
The “ad.” was'set in'quite small type
And headed “Sheriffs Sale.”
