mpia.-The legislature took but
one ballot on United States senator
Saturday, the eighth in number, and it
resulted as follows: Levi Ankeny, 54 !;
Harold Preston, AZ; John L. Wilson, 8;
George Turner, democrat, %; John b.
Allen, 6.
The eighth legislature is two weeks
old, and the net product of its labor5
thus far is the passage Of two bills.
One was the bill appropriating $4,000
for the expenses of the session, and
the other was one appropriating money
to pay Governor Rogers funeral ex-
penses. Figuring that the $4,000 will
be sufficient for the expenses of the
session, it has cost the state over $751;
600 to pass these two bills. On the
$4,000 basis the cost of the session is
about 1888 a day. and the legislature
has been in session IA days, for Sun
DAYS count on a legislative payroll.
The cost OF IA days session is $1S,662.
