PIERRE, S. D., Feb. 6.-(Special 1.-THE
principal house bill today was: Providing
for constitutional amendment, allowing
the mourning of public Indebtedness up
to 10 per cent Of the assessed valuation
for the purpose of securing water The
principal house bills passed were: Fixing
grade of penalty, and wolf bounty bill,
limiting amount paid to $1,000 per year
The house passed the senate bill pro-
hibiting the killing of antelope for ten
years. The principal senate hill was: To
limit school levies for all purposes to %
mills. The principal senate bills passed
were: To make county commissioners
elective by the whole county; the oil in
spection bill and cutting down exemp-
tions, which only passed by two ma
jority.
Oil Inspector Meyer raises the objection
to the pending oil bill that il seeks to
proi!bit the importation Of no oil cXceIt

is now shipped here, that it will give his
successor a salary of not more than $500 or
$500 a year, and that the sum set aside
for the purchase OF Instruments 20 per
cent of the fees, is too large, as the state
has great deal of apparatus en- hand
at the present time.
The house judiciary committee will de-
feat the effort to attach BeadIe county to
the Fourth or any other circuit except a
new one. Indeed, it is a question if the
bill was not introduced for the especial
purpose of perpetrating a joke upon Rep
resentative Wilmarth, who is the especial
champion Of the new circuit idea and wig
