Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1911-01-20

The Pierce resolution for an ad.
journment of the legislative assembly
at the forty.fifth day came up in the
senate yesterday on the report of the
state affairs committee that the res
olution be not adopted.
Senator Pierce supported the res.
olution, quoting from the message
of the governc' favoring an early
adjournment. He said he would like
to go on record as favoring an early
adjournment.
Senator Simpson favored the adop-
ton of the resolution and wanted to
file minority report from the state
affairs committee favoring the adop-
ton of the resolution for an early
adjournment.
Senator Davis could not see why
the resolution should be adopted in
advance of definite information as to
when the legislative body could COM
plete its work.
Senators Gilbert and Bessesen took
the same stand stating that the yafv-
ored the earliest possible adjourn
ment but did not see how the legis-
lature could declare fixed time for
adjournment before they knew wheth-
err or not their work would be done.
Senator Martin favored the passage
of the resolution. Senator Mellow
ell said he favored as early an ad-
journment as possible but he did not
feel like voting to bind the legis-
latur.e to it before it was possible to
tell whether the work of the session
could be finished. He did not think
the body had accomplished much as
yet.
On a roll call, the report of the
committee was adopted W vote of
80 to IA, and the resolution was lost.
Senator diversion presented a reso.
luton for the mailing of bills and
journals to the newspapers of the
state which was adopted.
The routine work of the session
was light and consisted mostly of
the introduction of bills.

in the senate yesterday on their first
reading. On suspension of the rules
they were placed on their second
reading and referred to their respect.
