In the house Yesterday afternoon
the measure that was accorded the
narrOwest margin in passing was that
of Mr.. Brown. which provides for the
equipment and maintenance of a troll
ley line between the capitol building
| and the Northern Pacific station in
Bismarck, appropriating $4,000 from
the capitol building fund for the pur-
pose. To Mr.. Young. of Barnes coun-
ty, credit must be given for saving the
| bill. Fis name was not reached until
almost the end of the roll call, and he
then stated very concisely his reasons
for voting for the bill The new wing
to be built this year will contain COM
Mittee rooms for all OF the committees,
and an easy way to reach the capitol
will then be imperative In addition
to this the amount paid by the state
for cOnveyences between the city and
the. capitol will be another important
item, and Mr. Young also called par
ticular attention to the fact that the
appropriation comes from the capitol
| fund and not from the general fund.
