to examine their own members for

paths. homeopaths and clcctics
also examine their own applicants
in their respective schools. But
the provision regarding the sys-
tens of mental and suggestive
treatment of disease is still most
obnoxious to the representatives of
the mental and Christian science
school.
The initiative and referendum
will probably be slaughtered IN
the senate. 1t passed the house
by barely the necessary vote, IL
republican member coming to its
relief ut the last moment in order
to give the friends of the bill n
chance. The senate, however, will
probably defeat the bill as too
radical legislation at the present
time. The democrat sent to the
senate from Trinidad do not be-
lieve the people arc competent for
self-gOvcrnment, and they seem To
have the power to kill the bill.

LEGISLATIVE DOINGS.
Nearly the Whole Session has been Spent Listening to Few
Wouldbe Statesmen, Bent on being Seen.

One ofthe important bills passed
by the house on third reading is
the bill to introduce the irrigation
district system in this state, simi.
lar to the one in operation in Cali
fornia under the Wright law.
House bill 23l, providing for
removal of county seats by a two
thirds vote has passed the third
reading IN the house.
The employers liability net
which provides that employees
shall have the same right to re-
cover for damages caused by CO.
employees us other persons have
has passed both houses.
Several constitutional amend
mcnts have been agreed upon and
at least SIX amendments will be
submitted TO the voters at the next
general election.
The legislature is now earnestly
at work on the revenue bill, which
is one of the most important bills
that has come before the lcgisla-
turc for man, years. The tax
dodgers are fighting the bill hard
but there seems to Ike disposition
on the part of the legislature to
pass il with but few amendments.
Wednesday morning the senate
passed nine bills on third reading.
Chief among these was the mcdi-
cal trust bill. which was passed
without further amendment. But
the bill has been so amended that
il is not much Of II trust for any
school. II allows the ostcopaths

Indebtedness to the amount of
S2,5OO,OOO.
The senate has confirmed the
appointments made hy the gov
ernor of II. c. McNu,t of Silver
ton aud Tyler u. Ileiskell of Fort
Morgan who will serve on the
board of control of the Soldiers
and Sailors home.
The House bill to establish n
state board of stock inspection
commissioners, was read and
passed.
The bill consolidating the su-
preme court and court of appeals,
was defeated on final vote.
Both houses have been actively
considering the revenue bill this
week and have made good progress
on it.
1t is rumored that an extra ses-
sion of the Legislature will be
called Immediately upon the close
of the regular session to complete
necessary Legislation. An extra
session would be charged to the
fusion members and as su"h would
be political blunder.
a few such men as Senator
Parks and Senator Whitford are
always on their feet absorbing
valuable time to no good purpose
The state should send more men
like Chisholm aud White to the
legislature-men of good horse
SENSE and fewer men like Parks
and " h ,ford, who are all mouth.
