Senatorial Bill is Killed.

Jefferson City.-By refusing en-
grossment the house Tuesday morning
killed the Crossley revised senatorial
primary bill, which provided that no
vote for a candidate for United States
senator should be counted unless the
voter also voted for the legislative
candidates of the same party as the
senatorial candidate,
Democrats and Republicans aliiso
lined up in opposition to the bill, re-
sulting in its demise by a vote of 55
to 20. Mr.. Crossley argued that it
was contrary to the primary idea for
q member of one party to vote for the
candidate of another party in a pri-
mary.
They may cross ove in the gen
eral election but they should not do
SO in q primary" Mr.. Crossley held,
Mr.. Calfee,, who is chairman of the
house judiciary committee, thought
the proposed change in the law
would confuse voters.
Mr.. Carter, of Clark, who is the
author Of the primary bill, patterned
after the Oregon law, which the
house killed several days ago, also
opposed the Crossley bill.
The senate has acted favorably on
a bill identical to that killed by the
house. It was introduced by Senator
Oliver. Other revised senatorial pri
mary bills will be considered in the
house tomorrow afternoon, under 6
special order Of business.

ease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment.

of st. Joseph, objected 10 the measure,
claiming hat the justices of the peace
now have the softest jobs in Buchan-

Mr.. Barker thought the justices
should receive So for sitting in every
case, instead of 81 as the bill pro-
vides. Mr.. Brooks didn't offer ally
objections. Other members scented
fat fees for the ]. P.'s in the more
