NOTHING vas DONE
Ar TIE C4BlN SESSION AT THE
GOVERNORS RESIDENCE,
Toward Calling an Extra session
of the LegtsIature-Ano
Meeting May Ese Called

"What shall tell the newspaper men,
when they come, as to the results Of this
meeting, said Governor Ferry last evening.
to his cabinet officials after long and
fruitless talk on the question Of holding an
extra session. The talk was held at the
governors residence yesterday afternoon.
There were present Auditor Reed, Secre-
tary Weir, Treasurer Lindsey, Commits
sioner of Public Lands Forrest and School
Superintendent Bryan. The attorney-gen
eral was not present. After a three hours
session no definite conclusion was arrived at.
The probabiIitv is that another 3ieeting
will occur within a short time. State
Auditor Reed and Land Commissioner
Forrest have felt for some time that an ex-
ira session was the only method Of avoid
ing results detrimental to the state, and
they so stated to the governor. The attor-
ney general, it is known, thinks that an
extra session is necessary. Secretary Weir
did not fully express himself. one Way or
the other. He hedged. Superintendent
Bryan was of the opinion that his DEPART
ment would not be seriously affected with
out a special session, and State Treasurer
Lindsey maintained a somewhat neutral
position. The governor is opposed to call
ing an extra session unless something ex-
traordinary occurs. He does not deem the
present anomalous condition of affairs
with reference to many laws, as at all call
ing for an extra session, and he will see
that the-money is put up himself to CON
test the land selections for the state against
the settler. Auditor Reed said today that
he hardly thought the governor would call
an extra session now, although he (Reed)
believed it to be necessary.

logs, each one OF them worth not less
than si00-provided II had been pos
sible TO get them to market. IL
looked tough 10 sse those mountain
eers burning up fortune Ia their
fireplaces every month. but there was
no help for H. ! saw oak trees there
eight feet IN diameter and over 100
feet high. There Is no possible way
OF getting the valuable timber out OF
that isolated and almost patbless
region, but IL the day ever comes
when communication can be had be-
tween IL and a market, thoss forests
will be source Of untold wealth TO
somebody. .-Nsp York Sun.
