county dispensers or any one else. Il Is
proposed to allow the municipal authori-
ties a show in the settlements and the
mayors, or intendants. and county auditor

but this has not been finally decided upon.
Senator Tillman's view is to have the
places left to the voters generally. The
proposed bill will incorporate Mr.. Barn
wells plan of bonding all state consta-
bles. and II is said this plan was heartily
concurred in az the conference.
