Two Of the administration bills were
completed Tuesday as far as leglsla-
tive action is concerned. and have
gone to the governor. They are the
law to prevent corporations organized
for profit from making campaign CON
trlbutlons, and the reciprocal de
murraee law. Another administration
measure. the primary election bill, is
the subject of dispute between the
two houses, and has gone to confer
ence, each house standing by its own
bin on the subject.
Other senate bills which we're en-
acted into law We're: Fixing terms OF
court in the Ninth judicial circuit;
parole of reform school inmates: at
taching certain lands to Union county;
placing a firemen's tax on local mutu-
al fire insurance companies; legalizing
the incorporation of the town If Tur-
ton, and a joint resolution for a con-
stitutional amendment changing the
manne of taxation of corporate prop
erty, and n memOrallzlng congress
to remove the tariff from lumber mo
to prevent the granting of evenue IL
censes in prohibition territory.
The senate bills providing for local
instead of state tax of local insurance
companies, providing for the election
of county commissioners by districts,
and requiring the of those re-
ceiving county aid to be published
were all defeated.
In the senate Dudley introduced d
solution that Congressman Martin be
furnished by the investigating commit
tee with the specific charges against
him, with the names of his accusers,
which. after a wordy contest, Went

The senate passed the house bills to
repeal the hide inspection law and to
provide for the destruction of weeds
on highways, then tangled up over the
primary election bill, in which Dudley
again attempted to have stricken out
of the bill the fee provision, resulting
in the rejection of the house bill and
insertion of their own measure.

The house Wednesday killed the bill
to elect county commissioners by the
vote of districts. The bill has passed
the senate, and was supported by
Eastman and the Democrats in the
house and opposed by Cable and
Brown.
Welzmuth introduced a bill in the
house providing for public are and
control of liquor and morphine fiends,
to. be looked after and confined in the
insane asylum.
Parmley and Glass tangled up again
in the afternoon on the report of the
Gamble investigation, which was
printed in the hoose journal of Tues
day. Carley, chairman of the commit
tee on journal, presented his report
and Parmley at once moved that it be
not adopted as the report. Insofar as
the Gamble investigation is concerntd,
it had been garbled by cutting out
that part of the answer as to whether
it was customary for senators and rep
r~esentativas at Washington to place
their sons On the payroll.
The answer, Parmley claimed, had
been changed, the original being cut
from the sheet and a satisfactory an
swer written in at the top of the next
page on the printers copy. Glass de
Tended the report of the committee
and said it was just as taken by the
stenographer with a few slight cor
rections where it was in error. Parm-
lty secured a delay of a day in the ac-
ton on the journal.

running of raw sewage into streams

tic purposes was Indefinitely post
poned on motion of Hare. I%ssenhuth
again got out his fire marshal bill, only
to see it defeated a second time after
he had explained it. The bill to appro-
pirate lands to the insane asylum to
be located at Watertown was tabled
on motion of Paterson of Lawrence by
a vote of 43 to SO.
The senate wrangled over the re-
port on the Gamble investigation, and
finally adopted the journal report
against the protest of Senator Cooper.
The bill to assess railway, telegraph

line property was opposed by Dudley
and advocated by Byrne and Robert
son and passed.
Gov. Crawford sent to the senate the
name of Thomas Hicks of Grant coun-
ty for state veterinarian and the APP
pointment was confirmed.
The house session opened Thursday
afternoon with a renewal of the fight
over the record of the Gamble investi-
CATION. Parmley started the row by
moving to amend the report to contain
what he declared to be the proper
wording and submitted a certified
statement from the official stenogra-
pher as to what the correct wording
is.
Glass opposed his amendment on
the ground that the journal should
show the truth, which, he said, it
would not show if the amendment was
i~nteriected. He declared that Senator
Gamble did not use the language con
tanned in the stenographer's report in

PROGRESS OF ANAEsTHEslA.
Wonderful Progress Made During
Late Years.

Chicago Chronicle-General George
Rogers Clark, who ought to have the
finest monument in Chicago instead
of being remembered only in the
name of a dirty street, suffered in his
old age the amputation of a leg
Anaesthetics were then unknown, and
to nerve him for the ordeal he had a
drum corps stand at his window and
play while the operation was per-
formed.
From that day to this there has
been a constant progress in anaes-
thesia. The first discovery was
nitrous oxide, or laughing gas" Then
came ether and then chIoroform. Of
late years there have been numerous
discoveries in local anaesthesia A
French physician discovered that it
could be produced by fine vibrations
Wonderful results have been secured
with cocaine, the most wonderful of
all being quite recent. 1t has been
found that by injecting cocaine at the
base of the spinal column surgical
operations on the lower part of the
body were rendered painless, though
the patient retained consciousness.
The latest discovery is that of Dr.

LIGHTS FOR CATTLE.

j hope you will be able to spare me
space to put before the public the
necessity of cattle and sheep carrying
lights at night on public roads in
these days of rapid loeomotion. There
have been many accidents, both to
motorists and cyclists, owing to the
fact of sheep and cattle not carrying
lights. 1t would surely be a very
simple thing for shepherds to carry

years ago. The bill was reported fay
orably by the claims committee but a
misunderstanding regarding it seemed
10 prevail. Judge l.. H. Bancroft of
Richland county, at one time assist
ant attorney general, declared that 1t
should be referred to the Judiciary
committee.
If this bill passes, he said, we
may be creating the biggest and most
dangerous lobby that eyer was
known. l am not opposed to the bu-
reau so long as it is kept within its
legitimate sphere he continued, but
l am opposed to the principle Of mag
nifying it out of all proportion to its
proper relationship both to the legis-
lature and to the state officers. We
are in danger of creating a power, II
we pass this bill, from which the
state cannot shake itself loose in 20
years. 1t is a dangerous power !
believe this legislature is disposed to
do right and that it is capable OF
formulating its own legislation and l
for one want no material change from
the old system
The speech created a sensation and
brought the house up to the keenest
wakefulness. Mr. Ainsworth of the
claims committee explained that the
bin called for an appropriation of
only $4,000 and was really an eXag-
gerated measure. Judge Bancroft re-
piled that he thought it was the bill
for an annual appropriation Of $14,-
500 to the reference bureau, and it
was that bill at which he had direct
ed his remarks. He went on to say
that he thought the deficiency meas
ure should pass and to that end
withdrew his motion for the reference
to the judiciary committee. The
measure was then passed without OPP
position. after Mr.. Estabrook and Mr..
Perry had explained further about its
emergency character.
Important Bills Introduced.
A considerable number of important
bills were introduced, as follows:
