1t is very probable that q joint com

BILE however, that the entire legislature

cial committee, to look into the matter
of locating an insane asylum there. Sen
ator Massingale introduced a resolution
this morning asking for a committee to
go to Fort Supply, but this resolution
was afterwards withdrawn so that a res
olution could be presented embodying in
it provisions for the entire legislature to
go to Woodward county should the men,

President Alexander will probably in
troduce the resolution, should he ascer-
tain that the members iwil take this

several days duration, owing to the dis
tance and the drive of Sc miles going
from and returning to woodward. a

is made.
