Scnate-Although this was next to
the last day of the session, but little
was accomplished. owing TO the deter
mined opposition of Senator Moody to
the bill removing the Soldiers Home
from Monte Vista. He fought the bill
by refusing to allow action on other
bills from the House that should be
acted on in committee in order to pass
ut this session. Late at night he al
lowed two bills to go through. One
was bill making an appropriation fer
the State University and the other was
for the reorganization of the militia
of the State. The reading Of the last
bill lasted until 9 o'clock a. m,
ana wnen II was completed ana passtti,
Senator Moody stood ready with his
ever ready dilatory move on the Sol
diers' Home bill.
Senator McNeely gave notice that he
would raise the point of the invnlidity
of all bills acted upon after midnight.
