Another demonstration over IL
house rules is assured as result q
the introduction of two resolutions by
Representative Norris, the Nebraska
progressive. who led the fight against
the Cannon organization year ago.
One of the resolutions provides that
the proceedings OF all house commit

from meeting behind closed doors un.
der any circumstances, This proposal
is regarded as revolutionary by the
regulars The other resolution pro-
poses an amendment to the new rule
under which committee may be dis
charged from further consideration
of q given bill. N
Another hot fight over the rules Of
the house has occurred. In ruling on

the action taken by the house last
spring when his power was broken
after the famous battle over the Nor

answered by an appeal from the deci.

and had maintained the school for two

the institution appealed to philanthro-

help. ...
The legislature appropriated $500
for two years maintenance and 5000

There are four buildings on the
