Bills Reported by the Steering Com.
mi,tee-Routine Of the Two Sessions.
THE SENATE.
Funeral services were conducted In
the senate yesterday over the remains
of the Fargo state fair bill, which went
into the soup tureen for the session
The steering committee had placed
on the calendar for action the Taylor
bill providing tax for the encourage
ment of county agricultural fairs and
the Brown bill for a state fair at Fargo
When the Taylor bill came up, Sen
ator Taylor offered an amendment
which struck out all Of the bill but
the title and substituted the Crane
bill to provide for an appropriation
Of $500 for county agricultural fairs
This action was necessary because Of
the constitutional objection to the sub
stitution OF the Crane bill for the
Brown bill, on the ground that no
measure can be so amended as to
change its original purpose.
Senator Lewis objected to the con-
sideration Of the amendment and
asked that 1t go over a day. Senator
Brown also raised objections to the
consideration of the amendment on
the ground that 1t violated section SO
of the constitution and on the further
ground that It provided for an appro-
priation and could not be received
after the fortieth day Of the session
He was ruled against on both alies.
Senator Crane said three Of the best
LAWYERS of the state had passed on the
matter and said that the bill would
be constitutional The amendment
was finally adopted and the bill passed
as amended
The Brown state fair bill then came
p on final passage and Senator Crane
ended the suspense by moving that the
bill be indefinitely postponed. and the
bill was killed.
The work Of the session was devoted
altogether to action on bills that had
been reported by the steering COM
mittee, Among them was the bill to
provide for a reward Of $50 to be
paid for information against violators
OF the prohibition law bill which Sen
ator Hale denounced several days ago
as a premium on perjury. The bill
passed by a vote of % to H.
