for an appropriation Of 5000 for the dis
tribution of hog cholera cure and thOn It
killed the bill by indefinitely postponing 1t.
Killen and Armstrong insisted on favorable
action on the bill, but Taylor of Custer

times, I'VE are in a peculiar situation"
but he got little further. Fogarty and
Brown were both addressing the house
when the final vote was taken. Let the

Several of the member who expressed
themselves are opposed to the bill in it's
present form and promise, IL the sub
committee insists upon introducing it
without change. to make a fight. AS a
result of the discussion of the bill sew
eral conferences were held during the
afternoon between Governor Shallen-
Shallenberger, Chairman Graft and other
members, of the banking committee. The
party whip has been brought into play
and several members who have been pro-

Of the governor to receive the Iashes.
This procedure will be kept up until the
committee and leaders of the Legislature
believe they have sufficient votes to put
the bill through without amendments.
One section of the bill not published
this morning provides that all the banks
in the state which come under the pro-
visions Of the bill shall be examined inn
mediately upon the taking effect of the
law. This will necessitate the appoint
ment of an army of examiners in order
