THE SENATE
FIFTH DAY


ators yesterday The first business aft
err the roll call at the morning session,
was the announcement of concurrence
by the House in Senator Achfs con-
current resolution, with the amend
ment that the joint committee provided
for in the resolution, which commit.
tee was to consider the county act and
all county acts, should have in its
membership six members of the House
instead of FIVE, which was the Sena-
torial membership. The Senate, on
motion of Achi, refused to concur in
the amendment, 1t being understood
that the committee, when 1t was final
ly chosen, would have the same menu
bership from each house.
d The letter from George Davis pro-
testing against the reference to him
In the Revised Laws was first laid on
the table, but was later lifted to per-
nit the clerk to inform Mr.. Davis that
the laws had already been enacted by
the Senate, and that his only recourse
was appeal to the House, which now
had the bill under consideration.
The Judiciary Committee reported
favorably on the bill to register titles
to lands by the administrators of the
estates of deceased persons, and the
report was laid on the table to be TAX
en- up with the bill. The amendments
were all in the line of securing clarity,
but when the bill came up for its third
reading a little later there was lit
tie furry over il because an effort was
made to place a limit upon the value
of estates that should be exempted
from the payment of costs in the land
courts. The matter raised the only
discussion that has taken place in the
Senate so far and seemed about to
eventuate in a disagreement when
Senator Bishop cut across the whole
subject.
LET us get down to business" he
said. IT move the adoption of the re-
port as it came from the judiciary
committee"
This carried, and the bill passed sec
ond reading. On the order of Presi-
dent Isenberg, it then went to the
revision committee, and will come up
for third reading on Thursday.
