COUNTY LOCAL OPTION BILL
The Majority Leport Was Against
Adopting the Local Option
Measure in Senate. :

Pierre, Feb. Is. = Interest was
transferred from the house to the
senate yesterday when the bill pro-
viding for county local option and
increased restriction of the liquor
traffic came up for adoption on the
reports Of the committee. Perkins
moved the substitution OF the
minority for the majority report
and % voted aye and 20 no. The
president, Though a misundarstand-
ing, declared the motion lost and
then a vote was taken on adoption of
the majority report fayorinA the
bill. This was lost by a vote OF 90
to q, after which the motion pre-
vailed to place the bill on the ca,cn-
dar for final passage today.
The bill precipitated the first
general discussion which has pre-
vailed in the senate and some spirited
speeches were made in support and
in opposition to the measure.
Perkins bill providing for recog-
milton of the battleship "South Da-
kota'' passed, as also did McDougal's
bill appropriatinR $4,000 for the
maintenance of national guard for
two years: also Branson's Eill ap-
propriatjng $500 for an expense fund
for the public examiner.
The house committee on state
affairs failed to secure the adoption of
the report favoring a Irvine plant at
the ~penitentiary, and it went to the
appropriations committee where it
will remain indefinitely.
The house passed bills making the
notes of the mutual insurance COM
panies non-negotiable, aud appropri-
ating 49, 900 for the deficiency at the
reform school.
One important bill was introduced
aiming to place the Office Of school
and public lands in the fee system
that will make the Office self-sup-
porting by increasing the fees on all
classes Of business transacted. The
measure is popular.
There was excitement last night
because of a request made upon /.
a. Keith. of the Druggists Mutual,
that he 60 before the insurance COM
mittce Of the house and senate and
oppose the anti-compact as well as
the valued policy bills. He is said
to have refused on the grounds that
he does not propose to pull chestnuts
out Of the fire for old line companies.
1t is probable that the mutuals will
be exempted from the provisions Of
the anti-compact law and this will
win their support.
Senator Lawson returned yesterday
morning and bills deferred because
Of his absence will now come from
committee.
The valued policy bill will be re-
ported tomorrow and the Watertown
encampment bill today. The latter
was held up to force votes to kill the
former
= The antl-compact insurance bill
will be reported to the house To-Day
unfavorably with a minority report
signed by Hildebrandt and Steiner.
The minority report will be adopted
by more than a %two-thirds vote.
Bromley has threatened to raise the
worlds fair bill from the special
order set for the Oath but has acted
upon advice and will let it alone.
A bill for a revenue commission is
being prepared and will be pushed
through the house promptly.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE.

Sioux City %Jouanal: The reported
agreement Of the conference CON-
mittee on the provisions of the bill
creating a department OF commerce
and labor is accepted as assurance
that another cabinet officer will
soon become a member of the Presl-
dents executive family. AS has all
along been expected the house has
yielded to the senate on the question
of Incorporating the interstate COM
merce commission in the new cepart-
ment. Merely from a spirit OF in
dependence. apparently, the members
of the commission have resisted the
proposal to make them subordinate
to the secretary Of commerce and
labor, and the senate has stood by
them, with the effect of defeating
that feature Of Senator Nelson's bill.
Inasmuch as the new department is
to be charged with the investigation
of affairs Of interstate corporations,
it would seem the interstate COM
merce commission should properly
become a part Of that executive di-
vision. However, the failure to
make the change is not vital. Per-
haps it may CONF later. The same
trouble arose in regard to transfer
ring the labor bureau to the bureau
of the new department. Here a
compromise was reached. The labor
bureau is nominally made a part Of
the department Of commerce and
labor, but the bureau retains an
autonomy which practically amounts
to independence.
Under the bill as now agreed upon
the department Of commerce and
labor will consist of the bureaus of
corporations and labor, the light
house board, the lighthouse establish
ment, the steamboat inspection
service, the bureau Of navigation,
the bureau Of standards, the coast
and goodetic survey, the commits
sioner general Of immigration, the
commissioners Of immigration and
the immigration service at large,
the bureau Of statistics of the
treasury department. the bureau of
navigation, the shipping commits
sioner, the bureau Of foreign COM
merce, now in the department Of
state, the census bureau and the
fish commission.
The merging Of all these bureaus
In the new department will be a
great relief to the overcrowded
treasury department., and will also
relieve the state department OF iuris
diction over matters which properly
belong elsewhere. as was the case
when the agricultural department
was created, objection is made to
the new department on the ground
that it Is a step toward paternaliSm.
The objection is not so pertinent for
the reason that most to be done by
the new department is now being
performed else where. However, that
may be, the agricultural department
has long since demonstrated its
utility as a palt of our governmental
system, and it is confidently antici-
pated the department Of commerce
and labor will likewise Justify its
creation.

king, il is certain that they did not
consult parliament, and it is extreme
ly probable that they followed the
kings wishes. 1t is a new thing to
