The Opponents OF the Commission Bill Con-
fident of It's Defeat in the Senate.
Special to the Gazette.
AUSTIN, TEX, Feb. 26.-The senate
put in the day discussing the commission
bill, Senators Simkins and Lane being the
speakers for and against respectively.
Both gentlemen made good arguments,
each touching both the point OF constitu-
tionality and expediency. The discus sion
will be continued tomorrow and it is
likely that there will be no
vote taken this week. The opponents of
the measure are in high spirits and claim
its defeat by Is to 20.
In the house the road law was largely
discussed and this evening test vote on
the question Of indefinitely postponing
showed majority of twenty for the bill.
A very large crowd assembled in the
representatives hall at 'clock to-day
TO hear Judge Terrell IS speech
presenting to the house the picture
of Stephen f Austin. Judge Terrell S
address was a most interesting piece of
historical literature, well considered and
finely finished and free from all attempts
at oratorical effect. Speaker Alexander
made very brief but appro-
pirate speech in receiving the
picture. The picture is full
length, life-sized portrait of the
father of Texas, showing him standing
under the shade of tree, leaning
on his rife, his sombrero lying at
his foot and his faithful hound erouching
near. The face of Austin is al
most an ideal one, both in
point of beauty and manly
Arale, the Texas painter, and was pre-
scented by Joel Bryan and Guy N Bryan,
tin.

A Western Voice,

1t was scarcely to be expected of a
state so young as Montana that it should
at one bound reach the pinnacle of polit-
ical uncertainty and have double legis-
lature This shows how thorough had
been the preparation for statehood. The
senate is equally divided, politically, and
neither side will Ground up" with the
other organization. AS there are only
eight on side they cannot resort to a
ball game to determine which shall rule
BY the issuance of two sets of certificates
from Silver Bow county the lower house
of the legislature is two. The factions
meet in two different halls and make wry
faces at each other. The democratic
governor sits on his pedestal and smiles
and smiles. 1t will not be surprising if
the people become tired of this aping of
the ways of the effete east and send a few
Bronco Bills from Pizen Thunder down
to Helena to stralghten the kinks.--West
