ed yesterday by bothh ouses, was no
 transmitted to the governor today anC
 cannot be passed over his head if h,
 should veto it.
 The ten-day limit expired this even
 ing and all Democratic measures were
 rushed through.
 The adoption of the report praeti
 eally carried the bill and all that re
 msined was to pass it through the
 hands of the enrolling and expressing
 committee to be signed by the presid,
 ing officers. Chairman Peterson, lo- cal option Democrat, refused the re- quest to deliver the bill to the engross- ing clerks and the segregationists fail cd on several resolutions during the day to. force it out of his hands, all the motions failing in tie. The vote was as follows:
 Ayes-Bailey, Bourne, Duffy, Hall, Hightower, HogwoOd, Morris, MeCOr- mick, Roberts, Sutter, Tobey, Webb.
 Nays-Bray, Coalter, DeSOuza, Doan, Gibbons, Merrill, Moore, Pace, Peter soG, Reed, Shaw, and Woolf.
 The situation was sureharged with many dramatic features and several hot passages at arms. Peterson de- elared he only had the bill ten minutes when he was called bys the clerk to stand and deliver, and he was not in the habit of being dictated to, but in giving instructions as chairman.
 Brags had been made by the other faction of how he had been whipped round the stump.
 Doan called attention to the fact that the bill had been taken from the bottom and placed on the top of a pile printed the day following the introdue- tion and advanced before thirteen oth- e. measures.
 Sutter and Webb replied it was the duty of Peterson to examine the bill at once and turn it over to the speaker. Peterson answered he had a number of bills ahead of the Hightower and would return it when he was satisfied it contained the provisions as passed.
 Finally late in the afternoon Good rich after a long court of procedure brought up the bill of forty odd pages and the reading consumed the time till after the office hours of the gov ernor, but it was delivered.
 The legislators will be the guests of the people of Tempe. A feast has been prepared and reception.
 The deadlock eontiued from 'elock in the morning till 4:30 o'clock, when the segregationists realized the futil- ! ty of further skirmishing and gave up -Le fight, adjourning till Monday after neon.
 Temperance Demoents were deter ! Eined to delay its transmission to the | governor till Monday to prevent a pos 'ibility of passing it over the veto, which was remote.
 The Republicans voted soIidly to legislation. It is understood hat the reason of this was that two Democrats who were said to have greed to vote to sustain the govern IT'S veto on the Hampton educational qualification bill were lined up by the 'arty whip. Strong pressure was sought to bear by every possible leans but failed to turn a single vote.
 At one time Sutter might have sue eeded in forcing out the bill, when 'ray was temporarily absent, but in tead he offered a motion to take a ccess and this was carried. During the day Weedin's district bill passed through both cuses by a strict party vote, indieat- lg that the Bourne measure to reere- te the office of public examiner was a Huff to secure votes for the segrega- on measure. Sutter alone of the Democrats voted c gainst it, but he changed his vote ter to aye. Il Doan's s suffrage bill limiting electors p taxpayers was brought up and H otiou to suspend the rules failed by II : to :. u The O'Nein bill to divert half the II suranee fees from the seeretary's of s' .e to the territorial school fund ' issed the council, but the house re- sed to suspend the rules by a vote e;
 10 to II. The Goodrich bill to protect stock u ,lders in mining companies was kill el
 in the house. !, The Merrill and Duffy bills cutting c constable and justice fees to et lximum per quarter of $500 and tr co, respectively, giving them only H e-third of the fess over this amount, Tn ssed the house. nc
