Legislature
~~~~~~~~~~~

Asks Committee to Probe SoIonS.
Assemblyman Bray. OF Oshkosh fired
a bomb into the Assembly by introduce
ing joint resolution asking for the
appointment of joint committee to be
composed of five asSemblymen and
three senators to investigate charges of
corruption in the Legislature in connec-
tion with the election of Senator Isaac
Stephenson ON March 4. The action of
Assemblyman Bray came like than
derbolt from a clear sky and set the
lower house in turmoil. Members
jumped TO their feet to debate the queS-
ton and Speaker Bancroft had all he
could do to maintain order. Several
members contended that inasmuch as
the Senate had appointed separate
committee to investigate the election
of Senator Stephenson the committee
asked for in Mr.. Bray's resolution
should be composed entirely of men,
bers of the Assembly. This proposition
was turned down Immediately when it
was shown that the Senate had the
power to investigate on their own ac-
count, whereas the Assembly did not.
The anti-Stephenson members of the
Assembly see in Mr. Brays resolution
an attempt to belittle the proposed in
vestigation by the Senate committee by
having SO many probe committees
working at the same time that the
people win become tired of the ever
lasting delay in accomplishing results,

Local ontion Bill FniI..

The Wisconsin Senate killed the
Marsh county option bill by vote of
II to u. The result was uncertain
until the vote was taken, three UNI
pledged Senators being won over by
the opponents of the bill the same day.
The debate on the bill ragged all day
long, being interrupted only a short
time for dinner. The debate was
marked by several dramatic incidents,
one being when Rev. w. r. Gaylord,
of Milwaukee, Social Democrat mem
Der, who opposed the bill, said that he
had stood in a pulpit and at the end
of a bar in saloon and had been bet
ter able to say what he meant while
standing at the bar than in the pulpit.
1t was his argument that swung the
doubtful trio of Senators over 10 the
opposition to the bill.

Favors Commission plan.

Government of municipalities by com
missions instead of by common councils
was the topic before the Assembly com
mittee ON cities the other afternoon.
While the discussion was informal in
its nature it served to bring out the
fact that the committee was inclined
favorably toward reporting some bill
that would permit trying out of the
system in some city of this State. The
bill probably will be in the form of a
measure to permit cities of the third
class, by a vote of two-thirds of the
voters, to adopt the commission system
of government This, it is said, will be
done in the hope that some progressive
little city will try the plan in order 70

How a $1,000 proposition may dwin-
die down to a $25 one has been indi-
Gated in the proceedings of the Assem-
bly, committee on public health. Early
in the session Assemblyman Buslett in
PRODUCED bill to license the man who
travels in wagon through the coun-
try districts selling marvellous patent
medicines. This bill imposed the pro-
hibitory license of $1,000 and was de
signed particularly to put the travelling
healer out of business. The committee
on health. which is made up of three
doctors, one man who took two years
in a medical college and another who
has been closely associated with physi-
clans in his commercial pursuits, got
the bill in the due course of events.
1t amended the bill so that the travel
ing Home and Ursus" would have TO
pay 500 month for the privilege of
driving his sales and the horse instead
of $1,000 a year as suggested by Mr..
Buslett. When the bin was placed on
the calendar and came before the AS
sembly for passage John T. Hughes Of
fered an amendment proposing that the
monthly tax fee be SO instead of 800.
