Some of the railroad boys say
that last Sunday night when the
storm was raging and after the two
cars got out from the side track and
ran wild down the main line, Section
Foreman O'Brien with three or four
men started eastward on a hand car.
They were running at a break-neck
speed when they ran into some rails
and boards which had been blown on
the track by the wind. There was a
crash, and Foreman O'Brien and his
crew leaped into the air, and landed
all in a heap, quite a distance from
the track. Above the bowling Of the
winds, the reverberRtng roar Of the
thunder, the whish and whir Of the
defending rain and hail and the
deafning noise of the rushing waters
the command of O'Brien was heard
''Hold to the handles. boys, hold to
the handles. While the narrative
may be somewhat colored, the fact
remains that Lawrence O'BrIen is al
ways at his post Of duty and in his
line Is not Rxcelled as a railroad man.

House cheering ard laughing.
The county of King went through without en-
amendment. exeep. the addition OF Ballard,
Yesler and Pontiac 10 the Twenty ninth dis
tr!ct.
Shaw of Clarke moved TO give his county three
representatives He eontrasted his population
with that OF Sksmaaia. He raised The question
that the bill was not based upon population,
and made al appeal for the third msmter.
Clarke of Spokane replied that If every frac-
tlon were 20 put in claim tbey would get into
no end OF trouble Clarke was being treated
precisely as every other county in the state
was.
Shaw said ncbody in the state would be hurt
by allowing one member more.
The yeas and nays were called, and the vote
stood, yeas 81. nays "a
Herren moved that Lewis county be allowed
three representatives instead OF two. 1t was 50
near the limit that L was as much entitled TO it
as Clarke.
Brown Of Spokane said the increase would
warrant him in voting against the bill. II the
increase reached 30. he should vote against the
bill and the emergency clause. and sll the rest
OF 1t. II was, he said, the new and growing
counties that should have any additions.
feighan said II was not the intention of the
constitution that the full limit should be
reached AT the second legislature. He opposed
the motion.
Candy said Columbis could with better reason
than Lewis claim another member
Herren REPLIED that the constitution had ex-
preSsly provided for an increase of representa-
tion.
Candy said that by the arrangement proposed,
Drum would not be voter in the district ne
represented
Evans said there would be two senators from
the same ward, unless the proposed arrange
ment was agreed 10. The eonstitution provided
Tor ali the sitting senators. and it was impossi-
bic even to put street between Senators Baker
and Drum. BY this plan they would represent
different parts of a city by which they were both
elecseo.
Judson sail: 4 won't stand this, Mr.. Speaker"
lRoars of larghierl.

the Twentieth or Twenty second district, so that
Judson's objection cut no figure
The motion was lost.
The final sections were rapidly read and the
bill was about to be put upon It's final passage,
when il was discovered that there were only
forty-nine and not fifty stricts. Herren made
this pretext for advocating postponement un-
I'll morning. in order to give the members a
chance to consider the details carefully. The
House ordered the correction made.
Grant pointed out that the only apparent
omission was in Spokane county, but that was
only as TO the names o! the new precincts and
was fully covered by section q
Rutter, in reply 70 Herren, said the King
county senatorial districts were all above the
pr portion.

showed that quorum was present On the
question of consideration the quorum disap-
