ten thousand of as good men as the
sun shines on, I wish to second the
motion of the member from Shawnee"
He had an armuful of petitions when
he made his second to the motion.
Cones Relies on the Bible.
Cones, speaking for is bill, said he
had the Bible to back him in the stand
he had taken. He quoted Christ as
saying, remember the Sabbath day to
keep it holy He said he had been
lambasted and roasted and cartooned
on account of certain bills he had in
troduced this session (Cones is the au-
thor of the patella bilD but he declared
that he was not seeking notoriety. but

session acts Travis has not been ac-
cused of working overtime in behalf
of administration laws. In fact, Travis
has abused some of the Stubs ideas
in shocking manner. His latest bill
did not create undue rejoicing in the
state house and the gentleman from
the gas belt will be marked for slaugh-
ter If the insurgent forces can find suf-
ficient votes to handle the job.
'The argument for making this Of
fee appointive,'' said Travis, sis that
it is very technical position I want
to call the attention of the honorable
governor to the fact that the office of
insurance commissioner is elective
That office, in my opinion. is the most
technical proposition in the state
house. I think the people should have
a hand in the naming of these officials.
1t was with a view of giving the peo-
pie the power instead of the COVER
nor that 1 introduced my BILL
Several amusing incidents were
brought to the mind of the senator's in
a review>-of the long lists of petitions
against the enactment of the anti-Sun-
day baseball bill. Here is one from
Usage City, signed by Charles w.
Barnes, retiring state insurance COM
missioner, and rs other miners" The
petition reads:
I'VE, the undersigned coal miners of
Usage City. Kansas. u. S. A, having
to work below the surface of the earth
six days in the week, humbly petition
your honorable body to give us one
day in the week to enjoy the fresh air.
and ask you to defeat any bill to pro-
hibit the playing of baseball on Sun
day.
Another petition signed by 2O2 cfti-
zens of Dodge City read:
ssWe, the undersigned citizens of
Dodge City, Kansas, request the sena-
tors to defeat the bill prohibiting the
playing of baseball on Sunday. and if
you do, We will always remember you
in our prayers"
There will be real trouble in the SEN
ate when the fee and salary bills are
reported for passage-provided such re-
port is made. These bills have been
framed in substitution of the former
special orders which flooded every SEES
sion. Protests and letters from every
section of the state have come to the
aries and number of county officials
in Kansas will not sleep we'll until the
measure is officially killed.
The official administration recall
measure has not appeared in the SEN
ate. For some reason this measure has
not been introduced by the inSurgeIt
following although the minority offered
a bill along this line in the early days
of the session. The Democratic meas
ure has been reported for passage and
will be disposed of in the same session
that the initiative and referendum
resolutions are considered

At this point Allen arose to ask the
man from Meade a question. He asked
him to read his quotation again about
the Sabbath day. After Cones had
read, Allen asked him what book of the
Bible it was from. Cone replied that it
was Exodus.
And yet said Mr.. Allen, "the gen.
tleman says he is quoting the words of
the Saviour and he reads from the Old
Testament"
Following Cones came Meek of Mem
aha county and this member an
nounced his text and poured out more
scriptural quotations and commands
than is usually heard throughout the
session of long revival He warmed
to his subject and called the members
brethren" Mr.. Meek also referred oc-
ca5ionally to the laws of the Modes and
Persians and the fall of the Roman
empire and the customs of the Druids.
FEEDER of Barton and Ellis Of Labette
spoke effectively against the bill. Then
came Westerman of Ellsworth with a
talk against the measure that was full of
the doctrine of logic and common sense.
This man Westerman speaks but sell
dom on the floor of the house but when
he talks he Eliminates the subject.
The speeches came in a flood, Lam
bertson. Watson. Keene, Cassin and
Williams all spoke for the bill. Wat
son of Allen, in his speech for the bill,
He said he was for it but he did not
seem, to like the company he was in in
| his stand on this matter. That was his
argument as the press table under
stood it.
Kelley Closes Debate.
| Kelley of Shawnee, closed the debate
with a mastery arraignment of the
| bill. He read supreme court decisions
| from many states in which it was held
| that the Sunday laws were matters OF
policy that demanded that a nation
rest one day in the week and not mat
/ tiers that should be governed by stat
ute. "This is a country of majorities, y

| pie of Topeka on a fair test determine

theaters, that is their privilege. of self
| government, and who, in the name OF
/ God, shall say them nay"
It Is not fair to pass from the de-
bate without mention of the part play
| ed by Thomas of Wyandotte, in his
/ fight against the bill. Thomas declar-
| ed that the principles of the Democrat
/ ic party of which he was a member
| were plainly against any effort to deny
/ the people of state or a city the
/ right of self-government. He went af.
