PIERRE, S. D., Jan. 2s.-(special Tele-

who came back with their pockets filled
with bills rushed them in today, and but
little other business was transacted in that
body. ono bill being passed to make the
theft Of live stock Of any value grand

we're by Nelson to fix fees Of clerks of the
court. in county court at SO per day; by
Craig to prevent the grazing OF live stock
on state lands without a lease On same
Cthis is the bill which will be fought by
the live stock interests, as it practically
in it's intent does ava with the free
rangos); by Rodge. compelling societies
from outside the state to give bond for
good behavior before placing any waits
in the state; by Vreeland, providing for a
TALLER in every county which has a Jail,
by Lawson, fixing the salary OF the deputy
superintendent Of public instruction at 81
500 per year by Hildebrandt, to repeal the
law providing for the election Of county
commissioners by voters OF the whole
county: by Rodge, providing for inspec-
tion of scales; by Burnstad, to prevent
the killing Of ducks and geese in the spring
months; by Potter. providing for submits
sion Of the license question in any tow
at any regular election by petition Of
twenty-five voters; by Stokes, providing
for safe keeping Of county funds, cash to
be checked out Of bank on check, signed
by treasurer and countersigned by auditor;
by appropriations committee to provide
for S12, 900 per year maintenance appropria-
tion OF governor; by Multr, increasing age
OF consent to Is years.
In the senate the first fight of the ses-
sion was sprung en- the bill locating the
permanent state fair at Huron. Dillon of
Yankton opposed the measure, and It was
championed by Wilcox Of Beadle. Several
motions for delay were made but all de-
feated, and on final vote the bill was car
ried by a large majority.
A long list OF bills was presented in the
senate. The principal ones, not duplicate
Of house bills, being by McDougall, appro-
p~riating $4,000 for the state militia; by
Moody, valued policy insurance bill and
anti-compact insurance bill; by Northrup,
providing for dissolution Of cities where
population has vanished and providing for
insurance of city property by mutual
companies.
The senate passed bills for deficiency OF
$219 in the salary of Adjutant General
Conklin and deficiency of $4.49O at Aber-
deem normal. 1t is estimated that the spe-
clal appropriations which will be asked for
at the present session will reach 81, 600, 900,
and a strong minority of each house is or
g~anizing for the purpose of holding down
the specials. AS It only requires one
third Of either house to do this, they are
likely to make their plan work.

the contest for pairs. For this they were
given each a Nebraska Whist association
button, set with a single diamond, and
they also secure the challenge cup, a sill

it becomes a permanent possession. ThiL

the cup, or in fact any honors in the as

At the business meeting OF the associa-
ton held Wednesday, it was determined
to widen its territory. The name, the Ne
braska Whist association, will be re-
tanned, but hereafter membership will not
be limited to this state. Clubs in adjoin-
ing states will be eligible. This extension
Of the field is chiefly to allow the many
neighboring clubs along the Missouri river
to enter. 1t is thought that the organiza-
ton will be greatly strengthened by these
additions.
George A. McNutt of Omaha was elected
president for the ensuing year; Mira. Por-
