REGISTRATION APPEAL CASES.
The House, yesterday, passed Repre-
sentative Burns four bills in relation
to registration appeal cases.
The first bill, requiring the attend
auce of witnesses, did not encounter
any opposition.
When the second bill, providing
fee of 81 per day and mileage for each
witness, was called up for third read
ing, Representative Rose objected.
He said The bill opens dangerous
gate. Fifty political workers might be
summoned as witnesses in one case.
They wonid be paid 81 each, and thus
all would get back their registration
fees. Representative McNulty sng-
rested that the number OF witness be
limited. The bill was passed after it
had been amended so as to limit the
number of witness TO three on each
side.
The third bill, authorizing the Judge
to tax costs. was not opposed. Repre-
sentative West expressed the opinion
that the fourth bill, authorizing the
| Judge TO decide who should pay the
costs, was TOO arbitrary, and Represen-
tatiTe Donahoe contended that it would
not benefit a poor man. The vote on
| this bill was as follows:
ea-Representatiyes Buell.. Burns,
Davis, Dennison, FAIRIES. Frazier, Fritz
zell, Hazard, Herring. Kitchen, Hnshe-
