WAS GROWING WARM.


way, when Mr.. Bolitho arose and first
informing the chair that if he was out
of order he would like the chair to call
him to order, said he was not afraid
to hear the resolution read and wanted
the reading to proceed. DR.. Condor
repeated the same remark with refer
ence to being called to order if out of
order and then proceeded to say he
Endorsed Mr.. Bolitho's remarks. Messrs
Cannon and Brown were not ashamed
of what they had done. He then offer
ed supplementary paragraph which
he desired to have Endorsed on the
resolution. 1t reads, ''Parturient mon
ties ct rediculeS' '-The mountain Ia
bored and brought forth a mouse"
Mr. Critchlow had just previously
moved to consider the resolution as
read and that the further reading be
dispensed with. AS his motion was
pending he called the doctor to order
but before the speaker could announce
his decision as to whether he would
entertain the motion or not, Mr.. Neb-
eker Of Rich arose to a point Of order.
His point was that the house had de-
cided to hear the reading by three
times so voting. Mr.. Critchlow in
terjected the remark that the MAORI
ties were each time diminishing and
that the opposing forces would soon
thought that the least the house could
do was to hear the reading when Mr..
Critchlow inquired if the resolution
was offered seriously or as q joke, to
which Mr.. Monson replied that it was
offered seriously and Mr.. Critchlow
withdrew further objection. The reso-
luton was then read or the remainder
of it rather. In full it is as follows:
THE RESOLUTION.
Whereas, F. J. Cannon and Arthur
Brown, senator's from Utah to the Uni
ted States senate. did, on February 13,
descend from their high duty as repre-
sentatives OF this state, and their still
higher duty as representatives of the
United States, by their acts or omis-
sion to act, and in direct violation of
their pledges, place the subject of tar
III paramount to the free and unlim-
tied coinage Of silver and did there
by cast reflection on the ability of their
constituency to know what is best for
them and the nation; and,
whereas, Such attitude by them is
in direct violation of every sanctity
which should surround the acts of sem
ators representing the people of the
state Of such fixed opinions on the
necessity of free coinage" and is an
unmerited stigma upon their intelh-
gence; and,
Whereas, 1t is the duty of the state
and all its servants to honorably labor
for the cause of silver. thus advanc-
ing that mighty day when no shadow
of the interest guillotine shall be cast
across the pathway of our citizens; now
therefore be 1t
Resolved, By the house, the senate
concurring, that we do hereby express
OUR sentiment of condemnation of the
acts of Frank j. Cannon and Arthur
Brown, and hereby solemnly censure
them for the same; and do most re-
spectfully urge, if such acts by them
be persisted IN, that they come home
and learn anew the necessity of silver
being restored TO maintain the grand
eur of our institutions
Mr.. Monson moved that all rules in
terfering with the passage of the res
olutlon be suspended and that the res
olution be adopted Mr. Taylor. who
had all along voted with the Demo-
Gratis out of spirit of fair play. moved
at this time that the further consfdera-
ton of the resolution be indefinitely
postponed and the motion carried.
THE REFORM SCHOOL.
A petition from the board of mana
gers of the reform school represented
that the board was without funds to
conduct the institution; that the former
board under the territory had found
themselves in the same condition, but
had taken the responsibility of issuing
certificates of Indebtedness. The pres
emit board, however, did not feel JUS
titled in so doing, and as there was
already deficit of Sc, 1910 up to De-
cember /, 1895, and salaries for Janu-
airy were now due and those for March
W. ho 1a
the passage of AN emergency bill ap-
propriating money to pay the deficit
and $4,000 additional. The petition was
signed by Heber NJ Wells, a. C. Bishop
and John r. Park of the board
When the order for third reading of
bills was reached, Mr.. Curtis request
that S. B. No. 40 be recommitted to
the committee on labor was granted.
S. B. No. 46 was then taken up and
passed without opposition. 1t defines
the duties of the encouragement and
fixes his compensation.
SUITS FOR WAGES.
H. 3. No. 20 was next taken up. This
is Mr.. Ferguson's bill providing for
attorneys fees in cases in which la
borers sue for wages. The bill as it &vas
amended against the authors wishes
some days ago, provides that any ar
tisan or mechanic wishing to Xke
advantage of its provisions must no.
tify the employer to be sued, at least
fifteen days before beginning the suit
The author wished to amend by MAX
ing it ten days, but his motion to that
effect was lost The bill then came up
for final passage. 1t was opposed by
Mr. Mansfield, who thought it was
calculated to create strained relations
between capital and labor 1t was
further opposed by other gentlemen
and some caustic remarks were ex-
changed before the roll call was finally
reached, which resulted: Ayes, 20;
nays, 10; absent or not voting, z.
S. b No. 81, which had been substi-
tuted by the judiciary committee for
H. 3. No. 79, was next placed on third
reading A fight Immediately ensued,
in which the members who tried to
smother the house bill a few days ago
the substitute. The house bill pro-
Inhibited pooling by corporations, and
the senate bill covers the same
grounds, only much more fully and in
many respects, 1t was believed by the
committee, more equitably.
The fight commenced when Mr.. Nye
moved to strike out section Z, which
provides that any person purchasing
goods of any firm which belonged to a
combination the purpose of which was
to keep UP the price of any comno-
dity, could not be compelled to pay
for the same. Mr.. CritchloW opposed
the motion strenuously, but it finally
prevailed by a rising vote of Is to Is.
Mr. Cazier then moved to strike out
the first section, the provision against
pooling. He spoke at length, arguing
that such law would initiate against
the interests of the farmers. who
