BISMARCK, Oak, March S.--The last
day of the Eighteenth legislative ses-
sion has been scorcher. The music
opened up with the vetoed omnibus APP
preparation bill in the council. There
was not much trouble in having it over
ridden there because most of the mem
berS were more or less Interested there
in, but when it reached the
tie. Adams and Jones 0he Charles
the veto. The latter erupted and the
house was knee-deep in whitehead lava.
Their idea was to appOrtion s500,000
for the maintenance of all territorial in
stitutiens and allow the governor audi
tor and treasurer to appropriate it.
Such a bill, the governor SAID. he would
approve, but he was not allowed the
privilege, for the numbering omnibus
measure
PASSED THROUGH
by vote of 80 to l3. The house adopted
resolution highly complimentary to
Attorney General Skinner, officially and
personally, which went through with
enthusiastic unanimity. The governor
approved SwanstOn's railroad commits
sion bill; the act requiring chattel
tiOn, and one providing that townships
road construction. The action of the
council in passing over the veto
bills appropriating $4,000 to cover
cyclone damages sustained by the Grand
Forks university. and requiring abstract
agents to give $4,000 bonds, was con-
Cured in. After the council had
knocked out the veto of the apprOpria-
tion bill its next startling act was to
pass a couple of rank bills. One pre-
scribing what millers should charge for
their work, and the other putting tele-
graph lines and sleeping car companies
in the soup by main force of taxation.
vEToES WE'RE DISPOSED OF
as indifferently as if they were petitions
from the dear people. These were
among the number disregarded: On-
nlbus appropriation; regulating build
ing and loan societies; placing abstract
agents under $4,000 bonds; reappropri-
atiRg $1,000 uneXpended balance of
Grand Forks university; approprlating
S22,0 600 to cover damages sustained by
that institution during the cyclone:
postponing tax sales from October to
November; allowing county commits
sioners to compromise delinquent taxes :;
and appropriating $4,000 for agricult-
ural fairs. These were sustained /:
Abolishing railroad commission; amend
ment to the game law removing
feathered tribes from protection
Aug. 15, instead Of Sept. 1; providing
against sham irrelevant defenseS in
courts of law; changing the name of the
First Bohemian church of Dakota and
establishing an agricultural college at
Valley City. This action upon the last
mentioned bill was great surprise to
many, and to its author, Mcdonald,
more than any one else. He claims
he has been sold out by certain
North Dakota members, and has
already ordered gross of tOm-toms pre-
paratory to going on the warpath. He
voted against sustaining every veto,
and looked pleasant while doing so. He
is a Democrat, but doesn't speak to
Gov. Church as he passes, since the
humiliating, eXaSperating veto of this,
his dearest scheme.
