school legislation OF 1906 is thought
by the department to be the most I'M
portant in years.
In general state affairs the bill that
has attracted most attention Is the
Holmes bill regulating the speed OF
automobiles. The game and fish laws
that were passed were the result OF
able discussion and wise compro-
misses, and do not effect any very great
changes.
The bank legislation has been to-
ward conservatism and security. The
Partlow bill, allowing state banks to
organize In cities of 1000 or less, with
q capital OF $4,000, was killed. Rep.
Lords bills to prevent fraudulent ma
nipulation OF bank assets, to raise the
necessary capitalization of loan So
cities from $4,000 to 100000, TO re-
quire two examinations yearly OF all
banks in the state outside of reserve
cities, instead of one each year, as
at present, to widen the scope of in
vestible securities and create a secur-
tiles commission, all passed both
houses. The house approved the adj
ministration bill for the state eXamin-
alton Of private banks, but ii failed
in the senate.
The primary bill that has been
passed and signed is not what every
body wanted, but it is more of what
more people wanted than any other
measure that was presented. Else it
would not have passed. The primary
bill. whatever its mechanism may
prove to be, is in its terms worthy
type of the hard working, conscien-
tious, compromising legislature of
1905. There is no doubt that at the
opening OF the session the majority
of house and senate were in favor
OF strict platform bill. The surren-
der of Gov. Warner, after he held TO
the platform for mope than half the
session, is only a type of many sur
renders of personal wish for popular
claim.
The triumph Of the house figures
over the senate figures makes the to-
tai appropriations Oy committee rec
ommendation s5,174,7y4 So. The con-
tinuing appropriations provided by law
amount to $1.369,951 &c, and thus the
total appropriation for 1866 will be
SI124,74 SIS. With two new state in
situations, with all allowances for
growth and extension, the total this
session is only $166,991 IS.
