HOLD NIGHT SESSIONS.
Senate Resolves to Get Down to
Work.

We have today an OvercrOwded cal
endar. We have a calendar revision
committee which will soon commence
to use the pruning knife upon our bills
and there VIII be a general scramble to
get the bills to the head Of the calendar
I think that by doing a little extra work
we can dispose of all these bills With
this speech Senator White Of Jewell
supported a resolution under which the
senate VIII commence night sessions as
a part of its daily programme. The
resolution was adopted without objec-
ton After this the senate viii begin
work ar $3.50 a. m. instead of 10 o'clock
and viii work for two hours and half
after supper
Most of the senators are worried
about the fate Of some bill or other now
on the calendar. AS usual there is a
very. good prospect that 2 lot of bills
viii die on the calendar as Senator
White predicted. In all more than four
teen hundred have been introduced into
both branches Of the legislature and
only comparatively few Of them have
been finally disposed of.
From now on the legislature will
probably work and work hard on ac-
count of the desire Of the individual
members to get bills through.
