IN THE SENATE

President Isenberg, after opening
routine, made a statement regarding
the Governors message announcing the
appointment of Doctors Herbert, Sim
clair and Judd as members of the
Board of Examiners. After the senate
adjourned on Tuesday the clerk had
shown him that the message was i'm
properly addressed to the Legislature"
1t should have been to the Senate.
He asked Senator Achi to move a re-
consideration of the vote confirming the
nominations las an amended message
had been received.
Reconsideration carried and the no
limitations were again confirmed. Also
it was voted to return the inaccurate
message to the governors office.
LIQUOR BILL VETO.
The governors veto of the liquor
bill came UP in order.
Hewitt moved to defer action until
the House acted.
Paris did not see why the Senate
should not stand on it's own feet, and
the House likewise; when either receiv-
ed a veto message.
Woods agreed with the idea of stand
ing on their own feet, but this was
matter of courtesy to the House, whose
bill was in question.
Lane said the House was already
working on a new liquor bill and would
most likely sustain the veto.
On a show of hands the motion was
lost, but on rising vote the message
was deferred by to 5.
JURY BILL VETO.
A message from the governor re-
ceived the previous day, declining to
approve House bill 1O3 increasing the
pay of jurors, was taken up.
Paris thought the veto should be
sustained, much as he should like to
see the pay of jurors raised.
Achi argued that the bill would not
make serious increase in expendi-
lures The license bill alone would i'm
pose on the people 100000 more taxes.

standing the veto, was lost on the fol-
lowing vote:
Ayes-Achi Brown, Gandall Hewitt,
