IN THE HOUSE.
A bill will be introduced In the house
soon by Representative Rouse of Hall
asking for a $75, 900 appropriation for
the Louisiana purchase exposition.
The list OF bills so far on the roll Of
the house does not include any max
ing an appropriation, for this EXPOSE
tion. Each governor made recon-.
mendation that some attention be
paid the matter and Mr. Rouse has
fixed the sum at figure which Gov
eTnor Savage advised. 1t is an open
question whether the legislature
will agree upon that amount, but it
is generally recognized that some pro-
vision will have TO be made for the
exposition. The bill will provide for
commission.o of eight members, one
from each congressional district and
two at large. They are to serve with
out compensation further than that
their expenses shall be paid.
Citizens Of Shelby in Polk county,
petitioned the legislature to enact
laws compelling railroads to give
equal accommodation along their
right Of way to elevator, coal and
lumber men. They also asked that
railroads be compelled to furnish
suitable accommodations to shippers
of stock accompanying their ship.
