THE ALLIANCE BILL

and sandwiched in by the committee Pat
ten says the gross earnings law has flies on
it and it must go. He also has bill to allow
the territorial treasurer to coverunexpended
balances back into the treasury Lowry

on interest 10 per cent. Patton offered a
bill to assess railroad and telegraph property
in each county and tax the same us other

bills in to let county commissioners kill
noxious weeds to suit themselves; also tn
exempt 5000 worth of property from taxes
when n thirty y-three-foot fire-break is put
around forty acres: also the same exemption
acres.
HoUsE.-A rule was adopted making it pos
sible to take from the committee any bill by
majority vote, instead of two-thirds us
heretofore. This was for the purpose of
protecting the house against fine lobby work
with the chairman OF the committee. Fred
Adams of Griggs was not put ON the house
judiciary, and is the only lawyer left off He
considers it an incXeusable snub. The
talk dissenting from President Stimmel's ap-
pointments ended in talk. There was mis-
take made in Aliens craftsmanship, but the
explanation to-day made Allen feel all right.
and some other explanations strengthened
the combine and made the Stimmel organ
ization good for the session. Mcdonald g
appointment as chairman of appropriations
is now regarded as justified by the prece-
dent OF Galloway (Dem.) as chairman Of rev.
