Ant-Cigaret Legislalion-Labor Bill
Passed.
Especial correspondence

Columbus, March 16.--(Spl.) )-The
Senators had great deal of fun on
Thursday in discussing the Russell
bill. providing for the protection of
skunks and polecats. They finally
passed it by large majority. Many
Of the Senators spoke in favor of the
bill, although Senator Sieber suggested
that the subject in hand had strength
in itself sufficient to warrant placing 1t
upon It's passage at once. Senator Roy
er offered an amendment providing
that no skunk or polecat should kill or
pursue with murderous designs any
chicken, without the written consent of
the latter and should, upon on account,
pursue with criminal intent, any men,
ber of the 74th General Assembly.
Senator Wilhelm opposed the passage
Of the bill upon the ground that the
animal in question does the farmer
more harm than good. He incidentally
paid pretty compliment to the agri-
culturalists of his district. The argu-
ment In favor of the skunk was to the
effect that he kills grubs and that
against him that he kills chickens.
The consideration Of the Myers AZ
cigaret' bill has been deferred and
the bill has been referred back to the
Senate Judiciary Committee, which
will amend 1t so as to provide that all
existing laws governing the manufac-
ture of the luxury in question be re-
pealed. Senator Myers says he has
good reason to think his bill will be
passed.
The House spent Thursday afternoon
in voting upon labor measures. The
most important, and it was passed, Is
the Davis bill limiting the workday Of
all laborers employed by the state to
eight hours. Mr. Pollock of Stark, who
is looked upon as one of the labor
leaders of the House, made two excel
lent speeches in favor of the bill.
