agreed upon. So they had met behind
closed doors until these bids had been
presented. when the doors were thrown
open to everybody who wished to attend
the session or appear before the commit
tee. Their meeting had not closed until
IL 80 o'clock, yet the members OF the
committee were not satisfied because
they had been unable to grant everyone
in attendance a hearing. The committee
had decided that they would like to meet,
in connection with the house, on Tuesday
evening of next week, at which time they
would complete their hearing of the
opinions of tho state educators. he
wished TO say that, if certain members
would give the committee little more
time and would show a little patience,
their report would be made in a few days
and would be satisfactory 10 everyone
If they were given n chance they would
transact their business in the proper
manner.
Petitions were received from Craig,
Townsend and Washington gulch asking
the passage of legislation prohibiting the
sale of oleomargarine or butterine, and
another petition was received protesting
against annexing any portion of Madison
county to Gallatin county.
A remonstranco was read from certain
BARRIERS against the passage of Craven's
bill to close barber shops on Sunday.
Reynolds offered resolution as fol-
lows:
That the committee on printing be and Is
hereby instructed to investigate the amount
and quality OF printing. binding and rule work
produced by establishments in the manufacture
of books and pamphlets in the state of Mon
fo nd that laUis isIatfou m no enacted
for the protection OF home enterprises and
labor, il necessary.
This was unanimously adopted.
Isdell offered a resolution instructing
the committee appointed TO visit the east
ern institutions, to visit old Fort Ellis and
report on the advisability of locating the
soldiers home there.
Won Tobel offered an amendment to
include old Fort Maginnis, and Ryan
wanted them to visit Kalispel and White
Sulphur Springs.
Rodgers, who had been on the watch for
n chance to get back at Won Tobel for his
rather sarcastic language of yesterday,
said he favored the amendment of Won
Tobel, because he believed in eXpedIting
business and if the committee went to
Fort Maginnis they could not get back
until March 7. hut as Won Tobel was n
member of that committee. the house
could transact considerable business
while he was absent. This caused a
| laugh.
Both amendments and the original
motion were killed, owing to the opposi-
ton of other candidates for the soldiers
home.

| the house committee to visit eastern state
| institutions, as practical mason whose
services would be valuable in passing
