Some days ago Gov. Hoch sent =
message to the legislature suggesting
that Representative Trigg of Ander-

the same bill passed passed twice.
Senator Wsggsner thought that "set
'em up" was = queer expression for

to use, SO he had resolution adopt
ed asking the governor to explain.
To night Gov. Hoch sent the follow
ing message, explaining:

by the senator from Atchison county
