THE ASSEMBLY.
In the Assembly the feature of the
day was the "sheep bill' and the local
option bill. That famous sheep bill or
two-mile limit law which has been the
bone of contention in the Lower House
come up yesterday morning.
The friends of the bill were as solid
and immovable as stone. They had
brought in all the invalids and those
excused on account of sickness.
Pogue Of Elko, who had been in bed
for the week past, came in dressed in
mufflers and overcoats enough to take
him through the Arctic region. NOEL
roy of Elko, who had been under the
doctors care also come in long enough
to vote, and Trembath of Storey, who
was very Ill at ease and unable to at
tend the day before, was there Sc
renely.
McCarran Of Washoe moved to make
the bill a special order for Friday.
but his motive was seen by those who
had mustered all their strength for
the contest, and the motion was lost.
McCarran then proposed an amend
ment to the bill by inserting tue word
occupied" before the word, house"
in the bill. TINS amendment was also
lost.
Noteware of Humboldt then came
up with an amendment to the bill and
made an eloquent talk for his view.
But it was a determination that no
amendment should be accepted by the
promoters of the measure and that OF
Noteware went down with the others.
McCarran of ,washoe then took the
floor in an earnest plea for fairness
at the hands of that body. He referred
to the measure in It's every phase and
said that the law which applies in
criminal cases should apply here,
Better that two guilty men should
escape than that one innocent mar
should be punished"
The bill came to a vote and was
passed by a vote of 81 to IA.
There were some important bills in
troduced. Riley of Humboldt intro
duced a bill to amend the act regulat-
