A bill was introduced Ia the senate
the other dav by Mr. Dawson. oppropria'
ing Sac, 900 to cne Iva Tempieton for injur-
les she received on public highway neal
Brownsville. She has already had t~c
suits on the case and has been defeated In
both. She now comes to the legislature
for $40, ooo We do not know the nature
OF the injuries she received, but they must
have been very severe, il they were worth
$2o, ooo.-Post.
They were. severe resulting IL the loss oi
leg and she only recovered not because
she did not deserve II, but on account Of
legal technicality. $4,000 ic more than
should be asked. A mistake was made in
putting 1t 30 high and will probably result
In its defeat. $1,000 or something like
that should have been asked for.
