MR.. BAILEY for two reasons did not In the
house today carry out his intention OF NOV
ing postponemsnt OF further consideration
OF the tax bill until Wednesday 10 givs
other LEGISLATION the right Of way. This
first was that there Is disagreement amonc
the Western members over the Potter bill
providing for an accounting 10 the scheoi
fund for its share OF the public domain
under the constitution OF 1876 which no
feared might preoipltatc time killing dis
cussion that would defeat instead OF helping
his purpose. Mr.. Decker this evening. how
ever undertook to have the pending bust,
ness suspended in order to take up the bill
at once. He failed In the attempt and Mr.
Cup underworld to have Il set for tomor-
row. declaring that as It seemed plain thai
the tax bill was not going to pass, It would
be better for the house to dispose Of the
Potter bill at least 40 that the members
might return home with some Accomplished
work to their credit. But MI. GUY went
down in defeat, too and the house won't
back to its seetion-by-s section game with
tho tax bill
THE SECOND REASON why MI Bailey did
not make his motion to the effect stated
at the outset was that Coles school TRUSTEES
ol'i' "nien US Wouio ike 70 see disposed oil
also, is not as supposed ready for lnyins
on the members desks. After getting a
favorable floor report thereon. Mr. Coils
found that It needed much alteration 10
make 1t parfect, and 1t has been returned
to the committee on education. which wilt
consider Il tonight or tomorrow.
MN BAILEY had another proposition when
he pulled IN the string or To-Day Last week
he gave notice that he would at noon today
move tho previous question On the tnN bin
and all amendments thereto adopted ana
