Candles Frineds Upheld.

The house session opened Thursday
afternoon with a renewal of the fight
over the record in the Gamble investi-
cation, Parmley starting the row by
moving to amend the report to contain
what he declared by the record to be
the proper wording, and submitted
certified statement from the official
stenographer as to what the correct
wording is. He made a speech declar-
ing himself for better morals in poll
tics and said that he was asking no
quarter in his fight for that end.
/ Glass opposed his amendment on
the ground that the journal should
show the truth, which It would not
show II the amendmen was injected.
| He declared that Senator Gamble
did not use the language contained In
the stenographer's report in his ex-
animation and that the change in the
record was made by the whole COM
mittee with a desire to have the re-
port corrected. He admitted that
Senator Gamble did make some re-
mark in the line Of the Parmley reso-
luton, but not as testimony, but in a
side conversation with judge Gaffey,
and at the time asked that IL be not
made Of record. He was sustained by
Mlchaels and Horribly, who declared

Railroad Rate Situation.

After holding his rate bill back for
a week, and finally deciding that he
had enough votes to carry it, Carroll
made a break Saturday which cost
him the bill. and which means that IL
cannot come up at this session. But
he has not lost hope, and promises
that the question is not yet settled,
and the house members will yet be
given an opportunity to vote on a
rate bill While that particular bill
is out Of 1t for the session, there have
been other bills introduced which
have been lying in committee for
long time, some Of which can be dug
up and made to do in an emergency,
and something in that line is likely TO
get out onto the floor at any time after
the first of the week. Just what bill IL
will be used Is not yet certain, but II
will probably be the Glass BILL to cut
all rates rs per cent, which Will be
amended in several cases to cover the
situation and given a place on the CAL
endar.

does. One Of them has threatened to
present an amendment making it a
misdemeanor for anyone to enter up

Of hunting, with a heavy fine for the

a gun or a hunting dog evidence of

Wide Scope of Anti-Pass Law.

One provision of the anti-pass law,
which went into effect Saturday, is not
generally understood and that is that
II applies to telegraph and telephone
companies as we'll as to railroads.
The penalty provided runs from a fine
to imprisonment in the penitentiary,
and it provides that although an Off
Ger OF one of these companies, if the
person is a member Of any party COM
mittee, or a candidate for an office, or
holding any office under the laws of
the state or the ordinances of any mu-
nicipality, he cannot use the telephone
lines of which he is an officer without
paying the customary tolls for the
privilege, and to do so makes him liable
to the penalties. There are hundreds
Of local telephones In existence in the
state, in which the principal citizens
are the organizers and officers They
also hold the petty offices of their To-
calities, and all come under the pro.
visions Of the law, which will be very
inconvenient to them.
The railroads also claim that the
law will be a money loser to them.
They say that most of their passes
which were out, beyond those of state
officials, were in the hands of land
men who travelled to the eastern states
to work up emigration to this state.
By this they were constantly bringing
in people who were paying fare to the
roads, but with the pass provision shut
out they will no longer make these
trips east, bringing back cash fares
with them. and thus cutting down the
railway revenues
