man, said yesterday that he is pre-
paring a bill, providing tbat wl -

ed at tbe next session of tbe legisla-
ture.
Colonel Jenkins says that it is bis
purpose to lobby the bill, and use
every legitimate effort to get it
passed.
"More than half of tbe witnesses
latroduced la court," said Colonel
Jenkins, "if the truth be known, do
not know and never beard of the
