Motions and Resolutions.
Mr.. Mattson offered concurrent reso-
luton relating to national inspection
and grading of grain. This is Sen
ator McCumber's national grain inspec-
ton bill. which the house adopted.
Wants Lumber on Free List.
Mr.. Shells offered concurrent reso-
luton regarding rapid displacement Of
Our growing timber and recommending
that lumber be placed on free list,
thereby making accessible to our peo-
pie the products of the immense for
ests of Canada and urging our repre-
sentatives to favor a Measure placing
lumber on the free list.
This resolution caused the sage of
Ransom to pop up like a mushroom
and denounce the resolution as a meas
ure which would overthrow the entire
tariff laws of the Unite States and Mr..
Buttz offered a substitute motion to
refer the matter to the committee on
ways and means. The substitute mo-
ton was lost and the original propo-
sition by Mr.. Shells prevailed.
How About Clerks?
Then Mr.. Cassell. the tall sycamore
from Steele. sent up his balloon. 1t
was a motion that the chief clerk be
instructed to prepare and read from
the desk a complete list of the en-
ployes of the house, giving name and
residence of. and position held by
each. and that such list be printed in
the journal.
Mr.. Buttz jumped on this resolution
with both feet and declared the motion
Of the honorable gentleman from
Steele a slur upon the members of the
house, a majority of whom had voted
TO place the employees where they we're
and moved that Mr.. Cassell's motion
be dumped upon the table.
Mr.. Cassell was from Missouri" as
it were. and wanted to know the senti-
ment of the members of the house:
he thought it 10 more than right that
the names should be published SO that
the members would know the exact
situation as TO whether there was, or
was not, a super1uity of employees and
whether employees had been appointed
and credited to districts other than
where they actually resided. He de.
manded q roll call-and got it. The
motion of the gentleman from Ran
som to Law the motion on the table was
lost. but Buttz was there with q sui
etitute and moved that the resolution
be referred to the committee on appro-
pr~iations-and Morris Beck. chairman
Of that committee, almost fell out of
his chair when roll call developed
that the motion of Mr.. Buttz had pre-
vailed-and there you are.
Mr.. Cassell took his defeat very
s"acefullv-.and actually smiled. He
mistrusted the resolution would be as
eigned to the committee on irrigation
Indian affairs, or live stock industry.
The house then regained its usual
calm tranquilitv-and listened to a
message from the senate. which in
formed the house that Senate Bill No
81. providing for the purchase of I'D
ditional land. for the erection of neces
eary additional buildings. and for sucl
