Saturday. Jan. IL. =
CouNcIL.-Twenty-two bills altogether we're
fred into the council this afternoon. Slim
membranes on property or contracts in
cases of non-residents. Ericsson would ex.
cmpt soldiers and sailors from poll tax, and
jury duty. By Lowry, a bill to reform and
elect the railroad commission. 1t embraces
prominent features of the Fletcher and Nc
Cumber bills. +
THE ALLIANCE BILL
will not be introduced, but will be sliced up
and sandwiched in by the committee. Pat
ten says the gross earnings law has flies on
it and it must go. He also has a bill to allow
the territorial treasurer to coverunexpended
balances back into the treasury. Lowry
offered q bill to make the high water mark
| Oh lulGFebU ~ per Ccul. IdUUOu Oucr6us d
bill to assess railroad and telegraph property
in each county and tax the same as other
property. Crawford, the busy bee, has pnt
bills in to let county commissioners kill
noxious weeds to suit themselves; also to
exempt 5000 worth Of property from taxes
when a thirty-three-foot fire-break is put
around forty acres; also the same exemption
if a row OF trees are planted around l6O
acres,
HousE.-Arule was adopted making it pos
sible to take from the committee any bin by
q majority vote, instead of two-thirdss as
heretofore This was for the purpose of
protecting the house against fine lobby work
with the chairman OF thes COMMITTEES. Fred
Adams OF Griggs was not put on the house
Judiciary, and is the only lawyerleft OF. He
considers it an inexcusable snub. The
talk dissenting from President Stimmel's ap-
pointments ended in talk. There was q mis-
take made in Aliens c craftsmanship, but the
and some other explanations strengthened
the combine and made the Stimmel organ-
ization good Tor the session. McDonald's
appointment as chairman Of appropriations
is now regarded as justified by the prece-
dent of Galloway (Dem.) as chairman Of rev.
the judiciary, appropriations and railroads
md q chairmanship besides. In the council
to-day r. Schiell got the stock plum on tho
judiciary committee. Crawford wants to
know what the printing for the legislature
costs and who foots the bill.
