FEDERAL BUNCH BILL
KILLED IN SENATE

The senate yesterday promptly stamped
its disapproval on the federal bunch
measure to keep the present sheriffs and
county clerks in office for four years in
stead of two. The bill provided that the
provisions should apply to the present
county officers as well as those to be
elected in the future. The bill was in
PRODUCED in the house and passed by that
body. In the senate its chief defender
was Senator Stookey. The vote in the
senate on the bill was:
Ayes-Burton, Hulaniski,. Seely, Stock
ey. Williams.
Nays-Badger, BrinkerhOff Bullen,
Horsley. Hyde. Marks. Miller, Sevy, Ben
ner y. Smith. Wilson. President Gardner,
Absent-KUchler, John Y. Smith.
One reason why the bill was killed 50
decisively was that in some counties rep
resented by the senators there were Dem
ocratic county clerks and sheriffs, and
the Republican senators declined 10 help
them to retain their offices.

LAW MAKERS TO
GO HOME TODAY
Eighth Legislative Assembly
Will Probably Adjourn
This Forenoon.
NO LIQUOR LEGISLATION
BREWERY BILL WILL DIE WITH
OUT CONSIDERATION.

The Eighth session of the legislature Of
Utah will undoubtedly adjourn at noon
toda.r. The house yesterday passed the
appropriation bill as amended by the con-
ference committee, and is now awaiting
with a calendar practically clear for &C
ton of the senate. The Badger forces
in the senate, which are dwindling with
the fleeing hours. are trying TO hold the
senate in session long enough to pass the
brewery bill now In the senate sitting
committee. there to remain until two
thirds vote of the senate calls il out.
The senate meets this forenoon at >
O'Clock. At that time the engrossed bills
will be signed, one or two minor bills
passed, and the conference amendments
to the appropriation bill cOncurred in by
the senate Then a motion will be made
empowering the president and secretary
to sign all bills still to be engrossed, AND
another motion to appoint committee to
act with d like committee from the house
to inform the governor that the Eighth
legislative assembly is ready to adjourn.
And that will be about all OF the legisla-
tive assembly.
There remains on the senate calendar
some thirty-eight bills, none of which IL
important If the organization forces of
the senate prevail these bills will not be
touched. If the Badger insurgents succeed
in getting the liquor bill out OF committee.
il viii be placed at the foot Of the long
calendar, and twelve votes will be neces-
saTy to place it before the senate out Of
It's regular order. 1t viii be Impossible
to reach 1t in IT'S regular order today. and
the continuation of the session over Sun
day is out of the question.
The country members Of each house are
already leaving Senator Miller left for
st. George last night. and Senator Brink
erhoff goes to St. George today, whether
or not the legislature adjourns. Several
members of the house went to their homes
last evening. and the others are prepsr-
ing to leave so rapidly that. should the
legislature remain in session another day.
there is grave doubt about enough re-
naming in Salt Lake to have quorum.

MUST PADDLE OWN CANOE
ON GREAT SALT LAKE

BY the adoption OF the adverse report
on senate bill No. LOO. providing for the
creation Of the office Of commissioner Of
pilots and navigators. the house yesterday
killed a bill which by many was deemed
worthy of serious consideration. Under
the present law there is no provision for
inspection of either hull or boilers or
machinery. and any one may ride 4 launch
or other vessel on any of the waters of the
state without let or hindrance. The bill
was intended to cast safeguards about
persons who innOcently permitted them
selves to become passengers on boa t.,
launches and other craft on excursion
trips on the Great Salt lake The trainers
of the bill realized the dangers that be
set those who make voyages on this mys-
terious and treacheTOus body of water,
and had in mind the many disasters that
have befallen parties that have encOun-
tered storms, the disasters in most cases
being due to the inexpeTieace Of those in
charge of the vessels.

DRASTIC SUNDAY
LAW IS KILLED
Conference Committee Fails to
Agree on Proposed Amend
mentS of Senate.
BILL RIDDEN TO DEATH
RIDICULOUS PROVISIONS MARK
MEASURE FOR GRAVE.

Action taken yesterday afternoon Just
before the closing Of the house session
resulted in the practical killing Of the
Sunday bill, otherwise known as house
hit 80, the committee having reported
mat no agreement could be reached be
tween the members Of the house and SEN
ate composing the special committee,
As matter Of form, Il motion to &C
cePt the amendments was made, but was
voted down. and as a result the bill is
without even being accorded the dignity
of being placed on the table. 1t is as
serted that it will not be considered
again before adjournment.
Representative Thompson. a member of
the Joint committee, asserted that the
senate members of the committee had re-
fused TO concede anything in an effort
TO bring the bill within the bounds of
reason, and that there was therefore no
cause for the house members of the com
lnittee to do other than stand out for d
disagreement.
Representative Morris proposed that a
motion be put before the house to in
struct the sergeant-at-arms. TO have the
measure framed and hung in some pub
lie place where it would serve as a warn
ing to future legislators as 10 the folly
of bluestocking laws.
The report OF the joint conference COM
mittee which. in effect Kills the bill. is.
Your committee appointed 20 confer on
house bill No. 49, beg leave to report that
they have met and have been unable to
agree. the senate committee refusing TO
recede from its position and the house
refusing to concur in the senate amend
ments"
The conference committee consisted Of
Senators Rudolph Kuchler chairman: J.
W. Sevy and ]. II Seeley. and Repre-
sentative Orvil L. Thompson. J. b. Ne
Cracker and William Mcmillan.
A similar bill was killed by the legis-
latuTe two wears ago in precisely the
same manner. The bill was first intro
duced in the house, where it passed. In
the senate it was amended I'm the same
ridiculous way as the present law. save
that this time Senator Seeley was not
