Senator Powclls now famous hotel bill.
which has occupied more or less Of the
time of the Senate since it was introduced
the first of the session, and for which the
senator had fought. blcd and died. has at
last becn ordered in an amended form
TO n third reading and will undoubtedly
be passed tomorrow, From this it might
be inferred that Senator Powcll's cup of
Joy was full and running over, but alas
It 10 not so for by an amendment which
Senator Archibald succeeded In lacking
on the bill Senator Powell's new hotel
is cut out from any benefits 1t might en-
joy under the terms Of tho hill If II runs
a bar.
The bill was called up by Senator
Porter and Senator Archibald proposed
an amendment which provides that no
property. real or personal. that is used
or occupied by licensed dealer IN in
toxicating liquor shall be exempted from
taxation. Senator Porter opposed this
amendment and Senator Archibald said
that he proposed the amendment on the
ground that he did not believe that the
business that causes the most trouble IN
the state should he relieved of any
burdens. He believed in heaping on tho
liquor traffic more burdens instead of
less. Senator Powell said the amendment
MAS evidently offered for the express
purpose of killing the bill and objected
10 II as it would interfere with the
exemption of manufacturing plants or
such buildings as n Masonic Temple in
which there might be stores rented TO
licensed liquor dealers. The amendment
was adopted by yea and nay vote OF
