tinuous performance of the scrip tural adagc. "Onc shall chase a thousand. and three put ten thousand to flight" when the House regis traiion bill, No. 70. came up for final action. The bill provides for registering the voters and calls for some educational qualification which the republicans do not agree with Brecn, minority leader since Hub bell has been sweltering in CiNcago trying to nominate Taft, objected 10 the measure and started the no vote against it. When the noses were counted it was found that i3 votes were necessary to carry the bill with an emergency .clause at tachcd, and that the three votes of the reps. killed the fright now attachment l2 ,eonsequcnee, the bill goes int6 effect ninety days after it's approval by the governor. which means about September IS, or after. The question the repub- licans think they have decided by the vote is to place the registration of voters SO far away as to make il, impracticable for the fall campaign. This, however. IS not seriously re- gardcd by the democrats.
 Another peculiar situation was created on account of the in,roduc- ton in the Senate yesterday of a bill providing for an amendment to the constitution which would sub init all emergency bills to the ref ercndum clause of the law. An ardent suffragist raised and intro
 
 stitutional amendment which pro vided that the right and privilege of suffrage should be fully granted to women. This was finally ruled out as not in order, but not until Hughes had unlimbered his orator. ical guns in its favor and had won great applause. Tt was finally de- cided that neither of these hurry up bills were enumerated in the governors call for the extra scs- sion.
