KANSAS SPECI4L SESSION.
Many Reforms Aduocated an Hes
SAGE of GOUernOr HOch.

Topeka. Kan, Jan. 16.-The fifth special session
OF the Kansas Legislature convened this afternoon.
Measures that are expected to become statutes
are the guarantee deposit bill, the primary cleo
ton BILL an amendment to the assessment and
taxation law, a 2-cent fare law and amendments
to the prohibition law.
The Governor in his message, after announcing
that the Legislature was called TO enact primary
election law, strengthen the tax commission law,
to establish a bank depositors' guarantee fund, to
enact railroad legislation and to strengthen the
prohibition law, said:
II recommend the enactment of a primary cleo
ton law to include every state, district and
county officer to be voted for in this state this
cloce for United States Senators and to be opera
tive in the selection of this years candidates by
every political party
The message declared that the demand for the
depositors guarantee law is overwhelming.
1t recommends that all doubt of the legality of
the act of the State Railway Commissioners in
establishing 2-cent passenger fares be removed
By enacting a straight 2-cent passenger fare law
\ bill strengthen the prohibition law has
been prepared by the Attorney General.
The Governor favors amendment Of the pure
to bring it into harmony with the Dick bill, and
an act comforting upon the women of Kansas the
right to vote for President this year; but the Gov
ernor does wish these latter reforms to occupy
the LEGISLATURE the displacement of the specific
measures to pass which the Legislature called
together

Martins Ferry, Ohio, Jan. Ex-senator
Joseph B. Foraker of Ohio, in reply to letter

Federation of Labor, has given his views on

Albany. Jan. l6.-Speaker Wadsworth set at rest

mind asked the Speaker what his attitude on the
Hughes Presidential movement was

that concerns me- My reason for refrafnng at this

my judgment swayed by politics, rather than
the legitimate needs of the legislative business.
