Big appropriations.
olympia, March THE house TODAY
passed an appropriation bill carving n
total OF S2,172, ,547. The senate nassaJ
another bill to pay the cost of main
tanning state institutions and depart
nents which carries a total OF 50 O19
Ool. Somewhere between the two
houses these bills will collide and ont Of
them VIII grow the hardest fight of the
session. In each house an Increase was
mace IN the amounts reported nv the
committee.
In the senate the only increase was
ior insurance on wooden buildings own
ed by the state, but the house snent
money with lavish hand. In the two
days that the house has had tho biII
under consideration a total of S2I5 S6S
was added to the total carried bv tho
OIL. Oh this cum $1S117S was added
To-Day. The appropriation bill passed
TWO years ago amounted to 81 $50 3OS
ana the total spent was but 81 ,S99 3OS,
The total passed by the present legisla.
ture may reach 81, 500, 900.
ln spite OF the great sum added nv
the house there was no provision for the
once OF the state railway, mill and fac
TORY inspector; nothing appropriated
lot Cne dairy and food commissioner. no
appropriation for indexing the senate
!oufhdI; no money set aside for the
transportation of insane and cOnyicts
ana several other items were eliminated
between the two bills the senate ia pre-
ferable. The senate bill has cut the
amounts allowed the colleges and
schools; has given an adequate sum to
Che state institutions, but has kept the
total down.
Over the Governors Veto.
Olympia, Wash, March 6.-The house
passed the reapportionment bill over
the veto OF the governor by vote of 81
to Il. Jerard, who voted with the
democrats, opposed the measure TODAY.
Senator l.. {. Crows bill providing for
a constitutional amendment for direct
leglsiatlon was indefinitely postponed
without debate.
The Jones direct primary law failed to
pass the house today. 1t was brought
up as special order this morning and
lacked one vote of passage. This after
noon motion to reconsider was lost
on tie The bill was opposed on the
grounds that 1t permitted a plurality to
rule; would impose a burdensome ex-
pense upon the state and the system
would be cumbersome. 1t was cOntended
that the country districts would be
placed at the mercy of the cities. Friends
OF the bill argued that its passage would
abolish political bOssism and give every
voter an equal voice. 1t was urged that
the system could be given two years
trial and repealed after that time il un-
satisfactory, but the house did not want
the measure.

HEALTH AND BEAUTY.

A poor complexion is usually
the result of a torpid liver or ir-
regular action Of the bowels.
Unless natures refuse is carried
off it will surely cause impure
blood. Pimples, boils and other
eruption follow. This is natures
method of throwing off the poisons
which the bowels failed to re-
move. DeWitt'> Little Early
Risers are world famous for
remedying this condition. They
stimulate the liver and promote
regular and healthy action of the
