central New Jersey territory which

his speech making for tonight at Pat

He rehearsed the history OF his cam

clared had been an effort to have him
run In the real interests of another
republican candidate. declaring that
he was mo stalking horse fpr any
body and never would be. Neither

pense Of something like $1,000 more.
1t seems to me that legislation can
be enacted SO that the taxpayers will
have better understanding of the
purposes for which their money Is to
be expended in maintaining what may
possibly turn out to be an expensive
luxury. 1t Is not my purpose or de-
sire to interfere in any manner with
the proper provision for the payment
of officials and employees created
and provided for by our constitution

pose reasonable expenses but | can
not overlook the fact that this sort
of legislation is likely to lead to care
lessness and extravaganza in eXpendi-
lures that cannot be well understood
from the provisions of this bill.
The state auditor estimated in a
statement made to the board of equal
ization that the requirements for main-
tanning and conducting the business
of the corporation commission should
be about $4,000 for one year while
this bill provides $4,000 for only ten
and a half months.

Especial Dispatch to the Morning Journal>
Santa Fe. N. NJ. May 24.--The
principal events of the day In the
legislature was the passage by the
senate OF House Substitute for House
Bill No. Al, better known as the Spiess
bond bill. The bill was passed with
out amendmant OF any sort and Is now
ready for the approval or veto of the
governor.
Senator Barth was the only senator
who voiced any extended protest to
the bill. but as he was paired with
Senator Miera, he could not vote
against 1t. He did. however, make
speech OF nearly an hour in length.
stating his reasons for opposing the
bill.
Mr.. Barth's objections to the bill,
briefly stated, were that too much
preference is given to the series .C'
bonds. providing for the payment OF
the railroad Indebtedness OF Santa Fe
and Grant counties. The bill provides
for the issuance of three series of
bonds designated respectively as "a.
"B" and &c" Series "A In to takc
up the territorial Indebtedness as
sumed by the state; series "B' the
general county Indebtedness. and ser
les &C. the special indebtedness of
Santa Fe and Grant counties.
Ii was senator Rarths cNisertiop
that special preference was granted to
the last series of bonds. He claimed
that these bonds were not only se-
cured by the general credit of the
state. but by the grant OF one million
acres OF land from the United States
bondholders are empowered to levy
on the prpperty of every county In the
state for the payment of these bonds.
Senator Barth offered several
amendments to the bill to meet the
objections which he found to the
measure. but without exception they
were voted down and on final pas
sage the bill carried by vote OF 20
to 2. Senators Alldredge and Evans
voting In the negative.
Charles a. Spiess. OF Las Vegas.
was on the floor OF the senate seated
beside Senator Holt, the majority floor
leader, throughout the discussion Of
the bill.
The senate also passed the bill pro-
viding that the capitol custodian COM
mission shall consist of the governor.
of public lands. Senator Barfh re-
sisted this bill. also. but was not able
to prevent its passage.

Auditor Sargent Issues Denial.

State Auditor w. G. Sargent wa,
in the senate chamber during the
reading of the governors veto mes
sage, and Immediately after it wa'
concluded he went down stairs anc
called on the governor in regard Il
the concluding paragraph of the mes
sage, quoting Mr.. Sargent as authorit,
for the statement that $4,000 woult
be sufficient for the expenses of the
commission for the year.
What took place between Mr.. Sar.
gent and the governor could not be
learned, but it is believed that Mr.
Sargent took exception to the state
ment that he had undertaken to give
an estimate of the expenses of the
commission a year in advance, before
the commission had fairly come into
existence.
When seen tonight, Mr.. Sargent stat
ed that he never at any time under
took to predict or estimate what 1t
would cost to run the corporation
commission. He stated that not having
any information on the subject 1t
would be manifestly impossible for
him to give an opinion. and said
that the figures referred to by Gov
ernor Mcdonald in his veto message
were those of a clerk in the auditors
office, and were merely intended as \
of what might be need
ed for the expenses of the state. He
had no idea, he said, at that time
that these figures were submitted that
1t would be used as a definite basis
for calculating the expenses of the
on which an appropria-
ton would be based. Mr.. Sargent said.
In eact, hat y WAS greatly surprised
when he learned, on hearing the gov
veto message read, that he
was QUOTED as an authority on the
probably expense of running the com

rhe amount appropriated for the ex-
)ense of the corporation commission
nay be all right or 1t may not. 1t may
De too high or it may be too low. The
point that / wish to make is that /
would not undertake to estimate the
'unning expenses of any board or con-
.ern for a year in advance when that
BOARD was an absolutely new depart
nent in the state, and when we had
10 data upon which to base its prob
Ible needs.'

The House.

| Three large vases of flowers OF tho
speakers desk this morning gave lit
tie indication OF the fierce and stormy
session that the house went through
yesterday. An air Of peace and tran
guilty prevailed. and the spirit of the
dove seemed to hover over the as
sembled solons.
There had been predictions that
there might be a repetition of the
scenes OF yesterday afternoon, but they
did not materlalize during the morn
ing session. one rumor was to the
effect that an effort would be made
TO force an apology to the house from
the men who openly defied the speak
er and the sergeant-at-arms yesterday
afternoon. Another was that the fight
would be renewed on the question OF
the passage of the joint resolution
providing an appropriation for the
payment OF the expenses Of the in
vestisating committee. Neither OF
these guessos came true and instead
the house got down TO the work OF
clearing the calendar.
The following new bills were in
troduced:
House Blu No. 2i5. by NJ. c. do
Baca, In relation to public bridges.
House Bill No. 2i6. by Mr.. Cor
6ova. to amend Section I. Chapter So.
OF the acts Of 1907. appointing a road
supervisor for each precinct.
House BIN No. 247. by Mr.. Lucera.
for the better accommodation and to
regulate the fare OF passengers ON
railroads. The hill provides for a
maximum fare of two cents a mile.
House BIN No. 24S. by Messrs Lle-
wellyn and Moreno. providing for
working convicts on the roads.
The committee on state affairs made
two reports ON the public drinking
cup bill. the majority favcring the
passage of the bin and the minority
recommending its passage. After .
skirmish the majority
report was adopted by a vote of % to
10.
