BILLS AND PROSPECTS
SACRAMENTO. March 1s.-(Speclal
to The Herald. 1.-THE senate today pass
ed bill to erect public building in
San Francisco, but even If It gets
through the assembly 1t will hardly es-
cape a veto, as the governor is very anx-
ious to keep down the tax rate. 1t is
thought he will veto the state highway
bills for the same reason. as he remarked
that the state could not afford tax
rate of 2is cents for road purposes. 1t
was rumored today that there was pos
sibility that the appropriation of $4,000
for new buildings at Highland insane
asylum might he vetoed, but there seems
no good ground for the rumor.
Many seats are vacant in the assem-
bly,; Speaker Pro-Tempore Kenyon has
gone to Washington to push his claims
for the consluship at Honolulu; Speaker
Coombs will follow him Sunday; ex-
Speaker Lynch. who expects to be ap-
pointed collector of internal revenue,
may also conclude to cross the continent.
The pilgrims to Carson city have re-
turned and were the center all day of
groups eagerly listening to their story
of the fight and asking questions.
Friends of the Santa Clara school bill
concluded today not to try to pass 1t
over the governors veto. but to let the
matter drop.
The governor has signed Bulla's Tor
rens land bill. which now becomes a law
of the state. unless the supreme court
declares it unconstitutional.
