EAV[S AND LAMBERT

GER THEIR OWN
Senate Adopts the Committee
Report,
A MINORITY REPORT
PRESENTED AND ADVOCATED
BY SENATOR CAMPBELL.
INSANITY LAWS FURTHER DISCUSSED
Changes as to Inebrates, INDECENT insane ard
P-aaItips The Bill to DOM lie
Foreign Corporations FavorabIy
r. o ried from Committee.

The principal part of yesterdays scs-
sion of the Senate was devoted TO a dis
cussion of the report of the Committee
on Elections, unseating Messrs. Kerley
and Souther, and to the further consid-
Grafton Of the bill to codify the insanity
laws of the State. The majority report
was adopted and Messrs. g. G. Eaves
and w. L. Lambert were seated as Sen
ators from the Thirty-frst district; the
insanity laws were considerably changed
and modified.
Senator Campbell brought in a MI
nority report from the Committee on
Privileges and Elections. he did not
differ with the majority as to the main
facts, but took issue as to the constcnc-
ton of the statute declaring that cleo
tors ''shall' register only at certain
times and places. He asked that The
attorneys in the case be permitted to
appear before committee of the whole
and present argument. He had under
stood the Committee on Elections 20 as
sent to that arrangement.
Senator Glenn said that it would be
an innovation, and a dangerous one to
yield the privilege of the floor to at
torneys.
Senator Mcintyre said that it was hot
his memory that such an agreement had
been made.
Senator Daniels said it was merely a
suggestion.
Selsator Osborne stated that there
had been no difference among the
lawyers Of the committee as to
the construction of the statute,
but that Senator Campbell was not 4
lawyer and on that account he had
thought it fair for committee of the
whole to bear argument from counsel.
Senator Travis said he was willing
to trust the committee.
Senator Justice considered it a dan
gerous precedent. He should be glad
to sit at the feet of able counsel aal
learn the law, but the Senate did not
have time. If there had not been a fair
hearing the case should be re-referred.
Senator Mcintyre said that as mem
Der of the Elections Committee he was
willing TO hear the case to the end of
the session if necessary, but was op-
posed to the appearance of counsel on
the floor of the Senate.
Senator Glenn said that if Senator
Campbell could show justice was on
his side he would not lack for lawyers
to help him argue his case.
Senator Goodwin moved to 30 into
committee of the whole for one hour
to hear counsel. Senator Black oppos-
ed it. Senator Skinner said full and
free hearing had been given in commit
tee. The law had been carefully look-
ed into and found to be in favor of
the contestants. The motion to go into
committee of the whole was lost.
Senator Campbell then took tae 1oor
and spoke at some length in favor OF
his report. He said the committee had
been careful and fair, but he Thought
their construction of the law was too
strict.
At the close of Senator CampDel's
argument Senator Glenn asked that
some member of the majority pres ans
that side of the case. Senator Daniels

CAN CUBANS GOVERN THEM

One Of the best known diplomatists
recently declared that the Cubans are
utterly Incapable of governing them
selves. and that the United States must
maintain its present control indefinitely,
or else annex the island. There will be
those who will dispute this opinion. but
there are none who dispute the well
established fact that Hostetter's Stom-

HOME FROM CHICAGO.
Adjutant General Whiteman Says the DC.
casion Wa Memorable.

SSSAS
Adiutant General Whiteman, who
was on Governor Otero's staff at Chicago,
returned home last evening with Gov
ernor and Mrs. Otero in Superintendent
Hurley's ar.
Adjutant General Whiteman in speak
ing of his Chicago trip, says it was a
very enjoyable one. The ceremonies at
the autumn festival were a greater sue
cess than the people of Chicago them
selyes had expected and immense crowds
thronged the streets of the city during
the occasion.
The weather was ideal during the
early part of the week, but by Friday it
was 50 hot and sultry as to be almost I'M
bearable. The adiutant general said he
was glad to get back to New Mexico,
where the hottest day.in summer did not
seem SO oppressive to him as last Friday.
While at Chicago General Whiteman
was the recipient of much social atten-
ton, and was invited out almost every
hour of his stay there. He says the
social experience was almost too much,
and it vas a relief for him to make a
little side trip to Danville to visit rela-
| tives.
Governor Otero and General White
man dined with President Mckinley at
| the Union League club and also attend
ed a luncheon at the Hamilton club.
General Whiteman met the president
twice during the week and also many
other distinguished officials.
