In the house it has developed that at
some future time the state will con-

The institution has been using easo-
line for lighting at cost exceeding by
several hundred dollars per year the
expense of putting in the electric fix
lures and expense of lighting by that
process. In discussing the proposed
appropriation, Chairman Trueblood
said:
Il think the plan suggested is the
best that could be adopted, although at
some future time I believe the state will
build plant of its own and supply the
asylum, reform school and state house
with electric lights. Our committee
did not believe the present the proper

and that if the rates were now reduced
it would be certain to affect the railroad
employees. Conductor E. E. Ives stat
ed that the average daily wages paid
to railroad employees in this state was
S1.79 cents, and said:
THE railroad companies have re-
trenched on every possible line, every
man whose head could be knocked off
has been knocked, and now the only
thing left is to reduce our wages. If
this legislature reduces the rates, this
is inevitable"
When asked by Ex-Governor Level
ling if the tendency was not to reduce
the wages of railroad employees, whether
or not the legislature took any action
on the maximum freight rate question,
the railroad men answered that unless
railroad rates were materially reduced
they had no reason to believe that their
wages would be reduced
This hearing ended the arguments on
railroad measures before the senate
committee.

I WONT GET a BILL THROUGH.
Rather Startling Remark of One of
the Solons Recently.

The campaign pledges of many mem
bers, representing all parties in the
house of representatives., and the ac-
companying obligations, will have been
fully discharged within q few weeks.
Many of the representatives have
promised to do what they could to Sc
cure certain legislation, and after la
borious efforts have introduced bills,
some of merit that are amusing. Now
the committees are working on these
bills They are killing them by the
score. Nearly 500 have been presented
in the house; less than a dozen have
been passed and not more than two
dozen are now under favorable consid-
Grafton. The committees are grind
ing out many bills which will be rec
commended for passage, but they have
not yet reached the consideration of the
house. Some members have dozens of
bills pending. A Populist whose name
appears in that connection very fire.
quently said yesterday: Z don't be-
lieve 1 will get a single bill through"
Yet the promises ito make an effort
are being fulfilled by both parties.

$50 EXEMPT FOR 8 MONTHS.
Proposed Garnishment Law Secures
Wages for That Period.

Senator Farreley's bill in relation to
garnishment proceedings has been rec
commended for passage by the senate
as committee of the whole. The bill
provides that earnings of a debtor, in
an amount not exceeding $50 per month,
shall not be applied to his debts on exc
cution, attachment or garnishment pro
ceedines until three months LITTER such
process is issued, providing further that
the debtor makes affidavit that such
earnings are necessary for the main
tenance of a family supported wholly
or partially by his labor. The bill as
introduced by Senator Farreley pro-
vided that the earnings should be for
ever exempt from garnishment, but it
was amended to read three months after
issuance of such process, by the judi
ciary committee.

New Train Wrecking Law

Senator Farreley's bill regulating the
punishment for train wrackiny has been
recommended for passage by the SEN
ate committee OF the whole. The pres
ent law states that the penalty for this
crime shall not exceed ten years in the
penitentiary, but says nothing about
the minimum punishment. Senator
Farreley's bill makes no change in the
maximum penalty, but places the min
imum punishment at five years. 1t
also provides that a person convicted
of wrecking train, thereby causing
the death of any person or persons.
shall be deemed guilty of murder in the
first degree. The present law leaves
it to the jury to decide whether per-
son is guilty of manslauGhter, murder
in the second degree or murder in the
first degree.

FRArERNAL INSURANCE BILL.
All Orders to be Under State Super
vision.

The house committee on insurance
has recommended the passage of Rep
resentative Weileps fraternal insur
ance bill. which contains radical re-
forms in that class of business.
The bill places all fraternal insurance
companies under the control and super
vision of the state insurance depart
ment.
The object is to keep out fraudulent
beneficiary insurance companies and
will make it more difficult to organize
new ones.
It has a provision that not less than
500 men can start one, and they must
have enough money on hand to pay
two death losses, which might occur
before they are permitted to solicit
membership.
