contain provision forbidding the TAX

That dogs taken into the woods by
hunters Kill a good many more deer
than wolves Is the claim that is made.
Downstate hunters, especially, bring
spaniels, shepherds and other so-called
harmless dogs into the woods during
the deer season, and with their aid
bag more deer than can other sports
men. These dogs are put in the
swamps, which have been surrounded

HOME RULE BILL
IS NOT PERFECT,
SAYS F0WLE
MEASURE is INTENDED AS BASIS
TO WORK OUT BETTER PLAN
SENATOR COLLINS AIMS AT IL
LEGAL VOTERS.
(from a staff Correspondent

LANSING. Mich, Jan. 23.-The home
lule bill introduced by Senator Fowie.
OF the 500, IS a long way from perfec-
ton, but the senator says IL Is only
introduced as a basis on which TO
work out something better. The
measure provides that petition by
10 per cent OF the electors compels
submission to a vote OF the electorate
the question OF new charter ~
amendments thereto. Another pro-
vision says that II 10 per cent OF the
voters file protest against a char
ter drafted II becomes void without
submission 10 vote OF the people.
This gives only 10 per cent OF tho
voters the power 10 block what pos
sibly large majority might want.
The machinery for home rule. how
ever. is well outlined and Senator
Fowle's chances are good TO be called
the father Of home rule law"
AS yet no home rule bill has been
introduced In the house, but the city
corporations committee has sent out
circular letters for data from all
sources asking for replies by Feb. 20.
Senator Collins bill amending the
voting machine law grants authority
to boards of supervisors to voting ma
chimes for use in each election dis
trict and apportion the cost pro
rata to each district. Precincts ex-
ceeding 600 voters are to be provid-
ed with two or more machines, but the
lefe rendum clause is still retained.
The bill also provides for greater Sc
curity OF the kegs To these machines
and safeguards against injury. When
voter is challenged and swSars In
his vote. If the election inspectors ind
him not qualified. they shall imme-
diately cause his arrest, and III con-
victed his offense is made felony.
Another addition secures more secrecy
for the voter and provision Is made
for a recount when the inspectors ind
a discrepancy between the machine
figures and the poll lists.
All appropriation bills before the
legislature should be accurately Item
lied, says Attorney General Bird.
because the new constitution grants
the governor the power TO veto par
ticular items while the rest OF the Dill
may hold good. There seems TO be no
law TO compel the legislators to item
ize but they are advised TO do SO as
courtesy to the governor.
There are huge kicks coming In
from township school officers against

State Superintendent OF Public In

claim il is a Capitalization of power
In the hands OF a few state officials
who would know less about the needs
Of district schools than the local men;
besides it would upset the entire
primary school system which has
been built up at enormous expense
and is held the best system ever de-
yised.

ONCE IN JEOPARDY
SECOND TRIAL PLEA

Lloyd NJ Brubaker, charged with
manslaughter, against whom verdict
in improper form was returned by a
jury in Judge Dunne's court last De-
cember, raised the plea of once in
jeopardy upon the commencement Of his
retrial yesterday. Guilty of involun-
tary manslaughter-not a felony" was
the curious verdict of the jury in the
first trial. Judge Dunno refused to
accept it. The jury reconsidered the
case, but was unable to agree and
finally was discharged.
Attorney Porter Ashe yesterday filed
an affidavit of the defendant, claiming
the jury was discharged without the
consent of Brubaker. This was denied
by Prosecutor louis Ward, and the
case went over to today for Judge
Dunno to determine whether the de-
fendant had been once in jeopardy.
Brubaker, who is a United Railroads
conductor, while not on duty was rid
ing on a Fillmore street car the night
of August %. 1908. "A man named Rob-
ert Fitzpatrick quarreled with him,
and, offering to fight. Brubaker fol-
lowed him from the car A blow on
the face was struck by Brubaker
Fitzpatrick fell against a curbstone
and sustained a fracture Of the skull
from which he died.
After the discharge of the jury Bru-
baker shot a passenger on a car, but
the man exonerated him from any
blame and the case was dropped in the
police court.
