THE LEGISLATURE
Oganized and Ready For
Work
This is About All That Was Accomp-
lished the First Week of the SEES.
sion-Two Bills Have Passed
the House

One legislature week of the session
of 1911 is passed. Little was accom-
plished in either house beyond the
organization, but that is something.
Indications were for a time that it
would take about two weeks to or
ganiZe the House and get the COM
mittees appointed when it appeared
that the House would appoint its
own committees. The Senate took
very little time to appoint its COM
mittees. but it is much easier for
fourty men who have served through
one session already, to get together,
than il is for 125 men, the majority
of whom are new members
The session viii last for fifty days
that is, the members will receive pay
for that length of time. They will
probably be detainted for at least ten
days after the fifty days expire finish
ing up business but they will receive
nothing for it.
The outlook for progressive legisla-
ton from this Legislature is not the
best, but things may happen between
now and the first of March. The
gressive legislation is concerned.
The administration is also in pretty
good shape in the House. In the
Senate progressive legislation does
not appear to be in such bad shape,
but it looks like the administration
was scheduled TO get the worst of
it,
In the Senate the most interesting
event of the past week.was the organ
ization, including, as il did. the
combined forces of the anti-admini-
stration Republicans and the Demo
crates over the administration
element AS a result of this COM
bination, the power of naming the
standing committees was taken away
from the President of the Senate and
placed in the hands of special COM
mittee on committees, the control OF
which is vested with the combination
of Observation-Disclosures Republicans
and the Democrats
The committee on committees re-
ported early, and as the result of this
the Senate was more fully organized
than was the House. The control OF
practically all of the more important

made two years ago. Two bills were
passed, both carrying emergency
appropriations. One was for the
state printing plant, carrying an
appropriation of $50, 400. Unless this
bill is passed by the Senate and be-
comes law within a week the plant
will close down for lack of funds.
The other bill carries an appropriate
ion of $4,000 for the hog cholera
serum plant at the State Agricultural
college. There is a great demand for
serum by farmers who have discovered
that it is real preventive of cholera
and the plant was unable to meet the
demand with the limited amount at
its deposal.
The House adjourned at noon Fri
day to reconvene at ? O'Clock tomor-
row afternoon. The coming week it
is expected that the House will get
down TO serious consideration of bills.

committees rests with the anti-ad-
ministration forces, which would tend
to indicate that there will be hard
shedding for number of the admin
STATIONS pet measures. Neverthe-
less, indications are that the Senate
will act favorably on a number of i'm
portant measures which bear the label
of progressive" And on many of these
progressive measures, which are not
exclusively administration measures,
it is likely that there will be quite a
scramble among the three elements
in the Senate as to who can climb
aboard the band wagon first and so
claim the honor of their passage.
The Democrats have already intro
duced number of progressive
measures which the progressive wing
of the Republicans have been prepar-
ing to introduce. The standpat
senators, also have introduced some
progressive measures.
If the Democrats and the progress
i've Republicans unite on some of
these matters their success, so far as
the Senate is concerned, is assured.
And the indications are that many
of the senators who are classed as
standpats will also vote for some of
the progressive measures.
Among the more important
measures introduced in the Senate
during the past week have been the
initiative and referendum, the recall,
several reapportionment bills, pub
10 n n
verdicts in civil cases a bill pro-
viding for the ousting of officers
of public corporations which are con-
yicted of violating the laws, and the
equal suffrage amendment to the con-
stitution.
At present the equal suffrage
measure is attracting much attention.
Many of the senators are personally
| in favor of equal suffrage, while few
of those opposed to it are expressing
their sentiments. The suffrage
lobbyists have been busy on the floor
of the Senate and have received con-
siderable encouragement. In fact,
many believe that the equal suffrage
measure will receive a majority vote
| in the Senate.
The Senate was the first branch OF
the present Legislature to begin re-
porting bills out of committees. BY
the action of the Senate committee
on assessment and taxation is voting
TO kill any bills introduced which pro-
vide for the repeal of the inheritance
tax law, the Senate is committed tC
policy of amending and not repeal
ing that law
After the stormy period at the
opening of the Senate, the dove OF
has apparently settled down on that
body. for the time being, at least. and
! just now the weather report does not

A Bad Mix-up

A Shookumchee editor, who was
full of hard cider, got a sale bill and
a marriage mixed. The description
ran as follows: William Smith, the
only son of Mr.. and Mrs Josiah Smith.

east of here, in the presence of seven

indicate the approach of any storms
during the coming week.
The House made very good Show
ing for the first legislative week. 1t
did something that has seldom been
done the first week by passing two
bills. Fewer bills were introduced
than during the first week two years
ago, more committees have been put
to work than at this time two years
ago, the fight to determine the con-
troll of the House was pulled off the
the first week and things generally
are moving off in the lower House in
good shape.
None of the legislation proposed in
the party platform, with the
exception of the initiative and refer
endum, has been introduced in the
House. None of the socalled admin
strative measures has been intro
duced. Much of that legislation is
expected this week.
The House organized Tuesday and
elected G. H. Buchanan of Winfield,
as Speaker, the choice of the Repub-
lican caucus. over Robert Stone, of
Shawnee, and Cliff Matson. of Sedg-
wick.
Wednesday it pulled off its big
fight to determine whether or not the
Speaker should appoint the COM
| mitteeS or whether they should be
appointed by committee appointed
by the whole House. The Democrats
voted selidly to take the committees
appointments away from the Speaker
and they were aided and abetted by
four stand-pat Republicans By a
vote of &c TO IS the Speaker was CIV
en- authority TO appoint the House
committees.
| The Speaker has named thirteen
committees, including the the judi
clary and the ways and means COM
mittee, two of the more important
committees. c. A. Matson, of Sedg-
wick county, was named as chairman
of the judiciary committee, and j. III.
Mercer, of Chase county, was named
as chairman of the ways and means
committee. Matson succeeds Speaker
Buckman as chairman of the judi
ciary committee
| The House appears to be in fairly
good shape so far as administrative
and platform legislation is concerned
The administration forces are conf
dent that they can muster a majority
in that body on all important legis-
latiye matters. However, the divis-
ion will be close unless some of the
Democrats prove progressive when it
comes to real legislation They stood
together on the organization of the
House but it expected that there will
be some breaks ON legislation
| During the week the members of
the House introduced I36 bills, which
is about sixty short of the record
