| SANTA FE, N. NJ, March 5.-The
local option bill went through the
house this morning after a lively de
bate. Those voting against the meas
ure were Messrs. McCash, Pendle
ton, Ortega, Turner, Stockton, San
chez of Mora, and Martinez Of Guada-
lupe. Those absent and not voting
were Messrs. Dalies, Bowie, Howard
and Pollard. This bill was introduced
by Speaker Montoya and prohibited
the carrying ON OF business, labor or
other pursuits on Sunday in counties,
cities or towns, by local option. Upon
application by petition signed by at
least one hundred qualified voters of
any county, who shall reside outside
of the corporate limits of any incor-
pOrated city or town, to the county
commissioners, they shall order an
election to be held in the usual vot-
ing precincts forty days after the re-
ception of the petition, to determine
whether or not all buying, selling or
trading of goous, wares and mercnan-
disc, spirituous and Intoxicating Ii
quors, including vine and beer, and
keeping open and carrying on OF any
business in shops, stores, offices and
places of business, and the doing Cf
all worldly work and labor, the par
suits Of ones ordinary business cali
ing, work OF charity, mercy, religion
and necessity excepted, shall be pro-
hibited on Sunday, within the limits
of such county lying outside OF the
corporate limits of any such city or
town. This also applies to the cities
and towns. Notice OF any election
held outside the corporate limits OF
any incorporated cities or towns shall
be given by publication in county
paper and shall be published for four
consecutive weeks. The last insertion
shall be within ten days before elec-
tion. The notice is to be published In
English as we'll as in Spanish. Mr..
Turner made strong speech against
the measure as did also Mr.. Pendle-
ton, while Mr.. Llewellyn spoke in ia
vor as did Mr.. Vargas.
Major Llewellyn is bound to have
a county named Leonard Wood, and
SO he introduced bill today to Gre
ate new county out of Guadalupe
and Valencia, with the county seat
in the town of Santa Rosa. 1t will
probably pass the house.
Mr.. Turner of Grant county did
good thing when he introduced res
olution this morningto allow only one
half a minute for any member to ex-
plain his vote. This resolution pass
ed and will help along the legislative
business now on hand. 1t had reached
such a point that pretty near half Oh
the time was used up by members
t explain their votes.
The following bills We're passed.

Mr.. Spiess of San Miguel county,
by unanimous consent, introduced c..
B. No. 101, an act to provide for the
management of the Las Vegas land
grant and confirmed the act on TAX
en- by the district court. 1t was pass
ed under suspension of the rules.
The bill relating TO corporations
was killed by vote of 6 to A.
Mr.. Hawkins introduced bill for
the writing and publication OF his
tory of New Mexico. Colonel J. Fran
cisco Chavez will write it and it will
be condensed into a tex book. The
bill appropriates $75 a month for
clerical help, and passed the council
by unanimous vote.
Messrs. Fall and Martinez were
added to the committee on enrolled
and negrossed bills, SO that commit
tee could keep UP with the work.
H. B. No. 81, an act relating to the
taxes of the Santa Fe Pacific Rail-
road company was passed.
A bill establishing the law and
procedure in certain cases, particu-
larly referred to damage suits
brought outside of the Territory, was
taken up. Mr. Hawkins moved the
reading of the bill to second and
third times under suspension of the
rules. In explanation of the bill Mr..
Hawkins said tha, in tae past few
years it has developed that in certain
sections of states adjoining New Mex
leo the sentiment is SO strong in the
majority of personal injury cases that
the defendant cannot get fair trial.
He stated that no attorney for the
defense goes into trial Of such a case
without full knowledge that the case
will go against him. He stated that
the result is that litigants have to
travel 1000 miles from ..ere to go 70
Texas, Kansas, or California or have
to go to Ell Paso. He declared that
no state has adopted the sand bag
ging process that has been adopted
in Texas and while citizens Of states
may transfer cases to United States
courts a citizen of this Territory can
not change such a case on account of
provisions in the constitution. The
bill was passed by 10 to 1, Mr.. Spiess
voting against it.
