DISTANCE TARIFF BILL KILLED
eastman Measure Defeated in Upper
Branch of State Legislature by
Vote of 29 to So.

The state senate has defeated the
eastman distance tariff bill, the final
vote ON the measure being 29 for and
80 against it. The opinions of Attor-
| ney General Simpson, ex-Attorney
General Young and former Justice T.
D. O'Brien that the passage of the bill
would wipe out the work done by the
state in the commodity rate cases
were used with telling effect, but for
| these opinions the result might have
been different.
The debate concerned itself only
with the main arguments, Senators
eastman and Putnam speaking for it
and Dwinnell and Clague against it.
When they were through the vote was
taken.
What is known as the university de-
f1ciency BILL calling for an appropria-
tion of $636,442. was disposed of by
the senate committee on finance after
many days of hearings and figurings
and delays for investigation of items,
but only after all the items for equip
ment had been subjected to a fiat cut
or 10 per cent, or total reduction OF
$64,340.
Initiative and referendum, by vote
of 81 to so, was made a special order
for Thursday, March 8, at the session
of the house.
By vote of six to five the house
committee on compensation of public
officials turned down the senate bill
introduced by Senator Boyle to in
crease the salary of the state treas
urer from $500 to $4,000. The bill
already has passed the senate.

on the subject were indefinitely post-
poned. AS has already been recorded.
the Campbell motion was defeated 65
to 81.
Had it been carried, and the bill
been made Especial order, 7" there
would have been no opportunity for
delay or lodging. When measure
is being concidered as special order,
debate cannot be restricted, an aye
and no vote can be demanded on every
amendment or action in connection
with it, and final vote on tn bill is
taken. On general orders it is con-
trary to the rules to call the roll on
amendments and final action can be
deferred indefinitely if majority is
not honestly for the measure. No
direct record of the percentages can
be had on general orders. 1t might
even be possible for majority to so
amend the bill, without any public
record of their actions, that the pro-
gressives would have to vote against
it.
Now | come to more pleasing in
cident of the controversy.
On Friday Mr.. Pfaender and several
who had voted with him were not pre-
sent. Accordingly friends of the
Campbell bill secured a reconsidera-
tion of the IS to 81 vote. Representa-
tive Edwards made the motion to re-
consider, which was seconded by Re-
preventative Converse. A number of
others who had voted against the
Campbell motion on the previous Tues
day without fully understanding the
significance of their action supported
Edwards and Converse, and these to-
gether with almost all of the original
fifty -one, accomplished the reconsid-
