You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.199.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 12:56, 12 May 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

[[File:JothamPAllds.jpg|right|thumb|Jotham P. Allds (1903)]]
'''Jotham Powers Allds''' (February 1, 1865, [[Claremont, New Hampshire|Claremont]], [[Sullivan County, New Hampshire]] &ndash; September 11, 1923, [[Norwich (city), New York|Norwich]], [[Chenango County, New York]]) was an American lawyer and politician from [[New York (state)|New York]]. He was briefly [[Majority Leader of the New York State Senate|President pro tempore of the New York State Senate]] in 1910.

==Life==
He was the son of Jotham G. Allds and Lucy Charlotte (Powers) Allds. He graduated [[Bachelor of Arts|A.B.]] from [[Colgate University]] in 1883. He was admitted to the bar in 1886, and commenced practice in Norwich, N.Y.

He was pseudo capitalist

He was a member of the [[New York State Assembly]] (Chenango Co.) in [[119th New York State Legislature|1896]], [[120th New York State Legislature|1897]], [[121st New York State Legislature|1898]], [[122nd New York State Legislature|1899]], [[123rd New York State Legislature|1900]], [[124th New York State Legislature|1901]] and [[125th New York State Legislature|1902]]; and was Majority Leader from 1899 to 1902.

He was a member of the [[New York State Senate]] from 1903 to 1910, sitting in the [[126th New York State Legislature|126th]], [[127th New York State Legislature|127th]], [[128th New York State Legislature|128th]], [[129th New York State Legislature|129th]] (all four 26th D.), [[130th New York State Legislature|130th]], [[131st New York State Legislature|131st]] (both 27th D.), [[132nd New York State Legislature|132nd]] and [[133rd New York State Legislature]]s (both 37th D.). He was an alternate delegate to the [[1908 Republican National Convention]].

==Bribery scandal==
[[File:Where will it strike next? - K. LCCN2011647565.jpg|left|thumb|1910 cartoon referencing the scandal]]
After the death of President pro tem [[John Raines]] near the end of the previous year, it became necessary for the Republican majority to elect a successor. The majority of the Republican state senators met in caucus on January 4, 1910, and chose Allds who was supported by the Republican party machine. Seven state senators, allied with reform governor [[Charles Evans Hughes]] and objecting to Allds, met separately at the Ten Eyck Hotel in [[Albany, New York]]. At this meeting, State Senator [[Benn Conger]] told his fellow senators that he had paid Allds a bribe of $1000 in 1901, when both had been assemblymen and Allds was the Majority Leader of the State Assembly, to kill a bill objected to by bridge construction companies in which Conger was interested. On January 5, Allds was chosen President pro tempore and Majority Leader of the State Senate. Shortly afterwards Conger's statement about the bribe was leaked to the [[New York Evening Post]], but Conger then denied having paid the bribe himself. On January 20, the State Senate appointed a Committee on Plan and Scope (three senators: Brackett, Grady and Meade) to decide on how to proceed. The committee decided to investigate only this one charge and hear testimony before the full senate. On January 30, Conger filed the accusation before the State Senate, stating that Allds had "demanded, received and accepted $1,000 on or about April 23, 1901, in consideration for his failure to pass a certain bill then pending before the [[New York State Assembly|Assembly]]." On February 3, Allds answered the accusation with a denial. Hiram G. Moe testified before the State Senate on February 8 and 9 that he had handed over the envelope containing the money. On February 23, Allds resigned the Presidency pro tempore, and on March 11 [[George H. Cobb]] was chosen to succeed. On March 29, the State Senate found Allds guilty by a vote of 40 to 9, but Allds had resigned just before the begin of the session to avoid expulsion. On April 4, Conger also resigned his seat, and retired from politics. Allds died of liver disease at Norwich Memorial Hospital in Norwich, N.Y., in 1923.
