RECOGNITION OF LABOR.
Mr.. Goes Bill Under Discussion and
Is Amended.

The bill to recognize labor organiZa-
items occupied the committee until
long after o'clock The bill, H F.
72S introduced by Mr.. Coe, was intro
duced pursuant to an understanding
reached when the Johns anti trust
law was passed, although this agree
ment had been made the bill was OPP
posed with considerable force, either
directly or Indirectly, by several mem
bers. Mr.. Johns, in Offering an amend
ment to strike out the word lawful"
took occasion to attack Mr.. McCauley
a representative of organized labor
who has been lobbying for labor bills
during the session. Mr.. McCauley was
on the floor but, of course, had no right
to reply. Mr.. Won Lehe, Mr.. Dale
and Mr.. Foss spoke against the bill,
and Mr.. Dale made a spirited speech
against the bill. He said he consid-
cred labor organizations and unions
the curse of the country because they
forced capital to get together, and he
resented the right of laboring men to
say how much their wages should be-
Mr. Coe moved to amend the bill by
striking out all except certain provis-
ions of the present penal code, which
this bill seeks to re-enact because the
Johns bill is supposed to repeal them.
This amendment was adopted after
debate, and the bill as recommended
for passage provides as follows:
1.-The orderly and peaceable assem-
bling or cooperation of persons en-
ployed in any calling, trade or handi-
craft, for the purpose Of obtaining an
advance in the rate of wages or COM
pensation, or of maintaining such rate,
is not a conspiracy, nor shall any such
law be construed to make it a trust"
Of this only the last clause Is not In
the present law.
Upon motion Of Mr.. Coe the bill was
ordered printed as amended.

bers besides the leader, twenty-five of

of the school. Senators Yale and Spen-
Ger were responsible for the visit, and
Mr.. Yale acted as master Of ceremonies.

popular light opera selections, and, in
respect to the day, Wearing of the

Among the speakers were Senators
Spencer, Wyman, who was a school

SOLDIERS, HOME AFFAIRS.
Committee VIII Consider Three More
"SuggestiOns for Investigation"

This morning Chairman Mclean and
his house committee on soldiers homa
will resume the investigation Of
charges made against the management
Of that institution. 1t is whispered
that the members Of the committee are
nearly ready to drop any further in
Vestigation as to the charges, which
they do not consider we'll grounded
Today there will be considered three
additional points made, viz. the cost
of the pavilion on the grounds, the
quality of the food cooked and served
to the veteran inmates, and the alleged
practice of paying more than is neces-
sary for their clothing 1t is stated
upon good authority that unless some
tangible evidence Is adduced to show
some reasonable foundation for these
three charges the matter will be al
lowed to go no farther but the remain
ing suggestions for investigation" will
be stricken off the books
The committeeman feel that they are
wasting considerable time and spend
ing some money in what appears to
them fHuitless mission.

SPEAKER JONES IN OIL.
Painting Presented to the Presiding
officer of the House.

Almost Immediately after the opening
Of the morning session, the house at
tendants brought in and set down in
front of the clerks desk, the very ex-
cellent oil painting of Speaking Jones,
which has stood in the entrance for d
week or more. Judge Littleton rose to
a question of personal privilege and
made a brief, but happy presentation
speech, in which he explained that the
high esteem felt by the members Of the
body had led them to present to then
estimable presiding officer a token
which they hoped would recall pleas
antly the thirtieth session of the leg1s-
lature. Judge Littleton said he trust
ed that as time went on, and the men,
bers followed their various paths In
life, this little mark of their friendli-
ness to Mr.. Jones would serve as 81
reminder for the pleasantest possible
association in the lower branch Of
the legislature.
Speaker Jones, who had yielded the
chair to Representative Hartshorn, was
touched by the incident, but responded
happily: II am exceedingly human -
he said, Il have feelings, possibly
some of the virtues, and certainly many
of the weaknesses of human nature. 1t
would certainly be futile and l shall
not attempt to say that I do not feel
some considerable pride in seeing this
counterpart preSentment Of myself pre-
scented to myself by you. 1 recall the
ACCOMPLISHMENT of the old Greek philos-
opher to know myself Let me say
my friends, that as 1 look back in after
years, if my life is spared, I will recall
with unstinted pleasure the happy
friendly association with my fellow
men in this house, who have aided me
in my modest efforts to do my allotted
work. Nothing which you could have
done for me- would have warmed my
heart more thoroughly, and / believe
the sentiment which prompted this gift
will serve to aid me better to do my
duty as presiding officer of the house.
Permit me to thank you, gentlemen,
very heartily"
Mr.. Donnelly, who said that he
spoke on behalf of the minority of the
house, explained that every member OF
the house had participated without
regard to party in the bestowal of the
gift, and that the sentiment of the
house entire, no matter how many diff
ferences there had been from time to
time, was one of approval at the
course and rulings of the speaker"
Whatever petit differences had existed
he hoped had passed away with the
events which had given them birth,
and he trusted that the house might
end the session as it began, in a spirit
of good will, not only to the speaker
but on the part of every member to
each other.

mission of all agreements for arbitra-
ton between the two countries in the

ON THE WHITNEY BILL
For the supreme Judges to Counsel
on Constitutional Questions,

The senate judiciary committee gave
Senator Whitney a hearing on his bill
to require the supreme court to give
the legislature opinions on the consti-
nationality of bills.
Senator Whitney cited numerous states
wherein this was a requirement of the
supreme court, and he also referred TO
the great length of time and the large
expense often involved in securing g
ruling on the constitutionality of a.
measure after it had become a law in
this state.
The committee took up the bill in ex-
ecutive session, and decided to place
it on general orders, on a minority re,

announces that for the future they will

Tho business has been overdone,"
he said tho other day. at takes not
only larger number of photographs
than is easy to handle, but also much
trouble i'll changing them frequently,
and the game is not worth the candle.
The photographs of actresses and celeb
rites certainly draw crowd, but
there are too many places that have
taken up the plan nowadays to make it
worth while. The public wants to SEQ
new ones every day and lots of them,
and the dealers arc now so anxious to
display them that nothing can be made
out OF charging for the privilege.
1T was formerly easy to get from
$l.50 to S3 week for hanging one of
these pictures i'll window, but now, if
the subject is i'll any way attractive, tho
shopkecpers are so anxious for new
faces that they are glad to hang them
up for nothing. The whole business
has been so much overcrowfed thai,
there is no longer any money in it for
advertisement or for the amounts that
used to be paid by ambitious actors for
the privilege of seeing themselves in a
