CARSON, March 3.-The assembly
today considered Citizens dance hall
bill under special order, and after
< amending it so that it wouldn't be
recognized by its own father, passed
it, One amendment is that in I'M
incorporated towns the red light dis
tricts must be outside of the fire linz
it's, which seemed to suggest some
funny thought or other to the hum
orists present.
In considering an amendment to
the present law requiring foreign
corporations to publish annual state
n.ents in state papers, resultless
wrangle consumed much time, the
point in dispute being the relative
price to be paid weekly and daily
newspapers. The bill was finally laid
on the table. Then Berry, of Nye
introduced bill repeating the law
entirely, rending it unnecessary for
any publication to be made.
Now, will the Bonanza be good?
Kane, he of Rhyolite-Mat, of
Manhattan, wouldn't have had the
nerve to tackle a job in any wise re-
sembling this-gave notice that he
will introduce resolution requesting
ladies on the floor of the house to re-
move their merry widow hats. When
it is taken into consideration that the
lady attaches, all of whom are now
flush and most of whom are wearing
the latest creations of millinery con-
fections, the boldness, the reckless
ness of this move at once becomes APP
parent. The general opinion here
abouts is that he has lost all hope of
securing the passage of his pet meas
ure, the county division bill, and is
working off crouch.
The assembly passed Lunsford' S
Juvenile court bill, and disposed of
whole lot of routine business, clear
ng the general file some, but not
enough.
The senate today laid on the table
McCafferty's and two other mining
Inspection bills and introduced a
substitute measure drafted by the
Joint committee on mines and min
ng. 1t passed the bill providing for
4 display of Nevada products at the
lext meeting of the mining congress
md one requiring owners of water
litches to put in headgates at the
,uttake. But the most commend
lble thing the senate is doing these
ecent days is putting the kibosh on
! job lot of freak and needless legis-
alton.
The special order of the senate to-
morrow afternoon is the primary
lection law and in the assembly the
abroad commission bill-the two
most important measures now before
he legislature. A decision by the
ederal court on the legal status of
he railroad commission is expected
laily The consideration of this bill
,as been held back awaiting this
pinion The case has been before
he court for over eight months.
And still the senate judiciary COM
nittee has made no report on the
Hti-gambling bill. The interview

his morning, stating that if the leg
