Oyster Bill is Beaten.

When the Senate at It's session last
night reached House bill 80, gener-
ally known as the oyster bill, Mr.
Barksdale, of Halifax, arose and said:
"Mr. President | move that this OH
be dismissed, It's dead. and there IL
no use of numbering the calendar
with it."
Mr.. Keezell, of Rockingham, arose
to object to the motion to dismiss,
and under the rule which the Senate
was working the measure was passed
bv. but not until Mr.. Barksdale had
added: :.
stinketh." u.oa
This statement went unchallengeo
and a smile played over the serene
features of Senator Sears, OF MatE.
avs. who with Senator Gunter, OIL
Accomac, and Senator walker, VI
northumberland, have been on guar1
all day to be ready to combat the Diii
If IL came up. Many OF the most III
finential members of the Senate al,

passage at this session. Even shouio

hate. il would have to go back to the

amendments, and it is by no means

the general appropriation bill, one OF
the Indispensable measures yet 10 De
passed, will come up for considera-

well consume all OF to-day's spare
time. -, I'LL.
Tomorrow the Senate will tackle
as a special order the Machen pri
mary bill, and this will precipitate
contest that will consume consider
able time. Mr.. Machen is very hope,
ful of the passage of the BIZ, I'D
saws he has assurances of suppore
from many senators. The chief ob!
iections to the bill have been cured
by amendment.
Should the oyster bill come up late
in the session it is certain to be talk
ed to death, if pressed. The repre-
sentatives from Underwater have
enough uplanders with them TO

Peninsula enterprise. [volume] (Accomac, Va.) 1881-1965, 1904-03-12

A resolution, introduced in the Sen
ate recommending to the State Board
of Education that the single list system
of books be used in the public schools
of Virginia was passed unanimously
by the House on Thursday. In the
opinion of the members of both bodies
the local school board should be kept
entirely free from the opportunities
and distracting influences of rival pub
fishing houses and this they believed
could only be done by uniformity OF
text books, especially in the primary
and grammar grades. The State Board
is expected, however, to adopt the
single rather than the multiple list
when in their discretion, it is best to
be done, without reference to, or re-
commentator of the local boards.
