IN THE SENATE.
Senator Sharpe was elected president
orc tenn of the senate for the ensuing
two years.
|, The bill prohibiting the killing of deer
for FIVE years, was finally passed as it
originally stood, after numerous amend
ments were defeated.
Mr.. Wolbert move that extra coln-
pensation of $50 be allowed the senate
postmaster and messengers under the
law of 1897. MI. LaMoure wanted to
add an additional compensation for Mr..
Lindsey, the senate reading clerk, and
for the senate janitors, but Mr.. Wolbert
objected to the. inclusion of this in his
motion. Mr.. Murphy thought this was
an appropriation of money and thought
the senate could hardly do it without a
roll call. The president stated that there
was some question as to the law relating
to extra pay for the postmaster and mes
sengers and was merely the sense of the
senate on the subject The Wolbert
resolution carried. Mr.. LaMoure then
renewed his motion to grant extra pay
to the other employees stated. MI. Cox
then raised a point. of order that their
salaries were fixed by law and the senate
could not increase them. The chair held
the point of order good and the motion
was ruled out.
The following house bills were passed
at the morning session: 8, game law
- a,ls,oon T. ~ cNctc IN deoSnonn cococs
1863, time of qualification of township
officers; 81, protection of fish; IL, filing
of license Of physicians; 113, fixed rate
collection of moneys from sale of school
lands; 50, stopping Of trains at county
seats where there are 500 inhabitants;
capitol; SO, fees Of clerks of court; 126,
stables and hitching posts at rural
schools.
The senate committee on appropria-
tons at the morning session reported
the bills for the commission and appro-
priation for the Pan-American exposi-
ton, The latter was cut to $1,000 and it
was provided that no part of it should
be available if the exhibit was kept
open Sundays. The other bill was

nor a member of the board with the gov
ernor and commissioner of agriculture.
When the senate r%econvened this after
noon Mr.. Cox moved that senate bill
1873, the railroad liability bill, be recalled
from the steering committee and placed
in order for third reading. The senate
refused TO recall the bill.
The bill for the express repeal of the
wolf bounty and the levying of a tax
to provide for the payment Of the GER
tifcates already outstanding provoked
more discussion. MI. Simpson moved
to strike out that part of the bill which
repealed the sections of the law pro-
viding how bounty claims shalt be certi-
fed and the penalty for fraudulent Sc
curing of bounties. He said that to re-
peal this part of the bill would leave
the counties that wanted. to offer a
bounty without remedy in case of fraud.
Senators Simpson, LaMoure and Noble
held an Observation-Disclosures as to the effect
Of this amendment and the sections
