Some Measures That Could Not Develop
Enough Energetic Friends to Win.
Springfield. Ills. May 9.-The Forty
third general assembly passed forty
four more bills than its predecessor.
The total number of bills introduced
was 1879. OF this number SD were
| introduced in the house and J0T in the
senate A total of 231 bills passed
| both houses and will become laws I'M
less vetoed by the governor. OF this
number 120 are senate bills and III
house bills. Two years ago the total
number of bills passed was 1919
senate bills and 10S house bills.
Civil Service Bill Fails.
The senate adjourned sine die at 1
n. m. yesterday and the house at 1:22
a. m. The closing hours were marked
/ by the usual turbulent scenes. All bills
on the senate calendar were disposed
| of, but about fifty senate bills re-
manned on the house calendar when
the latter body adjourned. OF the bills
which failed to become laws perhaps
the one of most general interest was
| the civil service bill. This measure,
after passage in the house, was entire
~ reconstructed in the senate. prac-
tically a new bill being substituted for
the original The substitute limited
the operation of the bill to the state
charitable institutions.
Local Option Also Fails.
Chairman Owen, of the civil service
committee. had at first intended to call
| up the bill, but was discouraged after
canvassing the situation somewhat on
| both sides of the house. Shortly after
| midnight he consulted Shanahan, who
was then in the chair, as to the advis-
ability of calling up the bill. and it was
| agreed that it would be waste of
time to attempt to do anything with
the measure. The agitation for local
option law failed of producing def
mite results. The Trautmann subSti-
tute for the bill prepared by the Anti
| Saloon League passed the house. but
failed to reach third reading in the
senate.
Another One That Got Left.
Several efforts were made during the
closing hours of the session of the
house to take up the senate bill ex-
empting mercantile corporations from
| assessment by the state board OF
equalization Speaker Pro Tenn. Shan
ahan put forth every exertion TO get
the bill before the house, but opposi-
ton was so formidable that all efforts
in that direction were futile.

~ in the interest of organized labor
than that which adjourned Thursday.
THE relief sought by the industrial
classes through legislative channels
was granted speedily and generously.
Much of the legislation vas enacted.
