That Is, Unless the Two Houses Have Better Luck in Getting Bills Through Than They Have Had Lately
TOO TIRED FOR
 NIGHT MEETING
But With the Slowness of the Work Yesterday a Few Bills Got Through and Several Others Were Advanced

If the legislature does not put the bills over the line faster for the next few days than it did yesterday the session is likely to string out to dog days unless the body automatically stops when the umpire calls time and lets the tail go with the hide. This does not imply that anybody was throwing off on the game, but merely that both houses were up against the high hurdles and it took a lot of work to get over them The senate cleared one just about o'clock last evening, and was too badly tired out 10 hold a night session. The house spent most of it's time after T. o'clock yesterday morning in trying to clear another and hasn't done so yet.
 The senate took up the corporation commission code in committee of the whole just before the noon recess and resumed its consideration again soon after. Many amendments were con- sidered and some of them adopted and about D. m. the bill was recom- mended for passage There was a warm time over one matter, para graph ID" of section 28 being strick- en out of the bill at the instigation of C. B. Wood and reinserted after q hard fight led by Senator Sims The latter was greatly incensed at the attitude of his colleague as both were on the committee which recommended the passage of the bill including the section. by a unanimous report The paragraph reads;
