LEGISLATIVE NOTES OF INTEREST.
A Detailed Report of the Proceed
ings in Both Houses
-. The Debates.

OLYMPIA WASH, Dec. 4.-The first
bill to pass both branches of the legisla-
ture was the one introduced by Judson
OF Whatcom, appropriating $4,000 to
pay the expenses of the legislative ses-
sion. The senate considered It in COM
mittee of the whole this afternoon and
then passed it. Both houses are now in
terchanging business. There was a hot
fight In the house this afternoon on the
report of the judiciary committee re-
commenting the passage of Gcog $
bill, which provides for the publication
of the decisions of the supreme court. 1t
was in the interest of the Bancroft
Whitney company of San Francisco.
and Brown of Spokane, Nioultrny and
Hughes bounced upon it numerically.
while licrren, Geoghegan, Kuhn, Clark,
Eddy, Plummcr and Juoson of Pierce
defended it as u square measure anu
business proposition. At ono stage OF
the debate Geoghcgan admitted that the
bill was probably what the
printing companies wanted. Still, 1t
was business proposition. Mr.. Sam
ford, the agent OF the Bancroft Whitney
Company, has been here lobbying for
the bill for several days. IL authorize.
the attorney general. secretary Of state
and reporter Of the supreme court TO
amend ten.year contract for publication
the reports, ut an expense not to exceed
$3.50 per volume, the state to take three
copies of each volume. At the begin
ming OF the discussion Hughes declared
that the bill sent the printing outside
of the state; therefore lac would fight 1t.
Brown of Spokane came near hitting the
nail on the head when he said. "The
bill smacked of II combination between a
San Francisco printing company and
the lawyers of the state"
Plummer declared that If any one was
lobbying for the bill he knew nothing
of it.
Grants motion 10 rccommit the bill
was then voted down, 80 to %.
After another long discussion Grant
moved to strike out the ten-year provis-
ion. The motion was lost, 80 to 90.
Weatherford effort TO make the bill the
special order for 2 +. NJ. tomorrow Was
also defeated, IS to 81. Then the house
refused to adjourn.
Hughes now offered an amendment to
section |, requiring the work 10 bc done
in Washington, and Eddy offered an
amendment to the amendment rcquir-
ing the contract to be awarded to the
lowest bidder.
| Geoghegan moved to indefinitely post
pone the amendment; lost, 30 to %.
Pending the question the house gladly
accepted the motion to adjourn until
/ 80 Z. NJ. tomorrow

Views OF the Members of the Join
Commission.


The joint committee met tonight and
hca ri the reports OF the several Nom

territorial code commission had been
distributed for review. II WAS the opin.
ion of the commission that the code con
tanned numerous good points, and would
prove an excellent foundation upon
which to build more comprehensive
work.
During the meeting Judge Houghton
moved that Judge Kuhn be authorized
to scgregate the political code and intro
duce in the form of bills. Tho motion
was Withdrawn because the committee
was not in position to consider 1t.
Another meeting will be held next Mon
day evening. ..,
Senator Houshton reported that he
had found many things in the practice
act which met with his view, and many
that did hot. II do not like the method
prescribed for the beginning of the civil
suits" he said. II don't think judy
ments by default should be entered in
Justice courts. The main question be-
fore us is whether we like the Califor-
mia code of procedure, which seems to
be used here. | think there is great
deal in the code that could be utilized by
the legislature, but am not prepared
that il he printed"
Representative Herren, who exam
ined the penal code, said: "Thc work |
had took to be n good conn lation.
The serious objection | take TO Ii is that
il is not worked out properly. 1t gives
