LEGISLATIVE MATTERS.
Summary of Subjects Under Consid'
Grafton by the Legislators.
Some Matters Acted Upon.

Governor Luce refused TO sign i've bills
passed by the senate in the absence or
President pro TEN Ball, and which were
certified 10 go by Temporary President
Giddings. The governor asserts that the
senate exhaused its authority In appointing
a president pro TEN. and that Senator Gid
dings has no more power 10 certify 10 the
passage Of bills than any other senator. In
this opinion the governor Is sustained by
the attorney general and ex Chief Justice
Cooley The governor suggests as way
out of the difficulty that he appoint lieu
tenant governor and the senate can then
elect another president pro tenn, and thus
have two legal presiding officers. IL this
is not done all the bills signed by Mr.. Gid
dings will be returned To the senate To
be passed again with President Ball In the
chair. Later: President Ball signed the
bills which were hung up by the governor
because they were signed only by Tempo
rary President Giddings. The governor
has modified his views somewhat and will
sign the bills certified TO by Ball even
though the latter was not present when
they were passed.
