than along highways as being less dan
gerous to the public. Mr.. Head eX-
planned the bill at length but vote
was not reached on Tuesday in the
senate.
Governor Clarke is deeply interested
in the project to have the state erect
an office building, which seems very
necessary. and to make a start in the
matter Of the purchase OF sufficient
ground around the capitol to afford
proper setting for the building and for
all other state buildings and for nu-
merous memorials and monuments. In
view OF the fact that the state has no
ready money for the Improvements
actually needed it is proposed that a
millage tax of very small amount be
provided, one which will bring about
100000 year for a year or two and
later a much smaller sum for several
years, and that this be placed in the
hands of the executive council to be
used in erection of the office building
and buying the cheap land needed by
the state. In this way the problem can
be worked out very easily. Unless this
is done 1t will soon be that the state is
renting large amount of floor space
and subjecting itself 70 loss and waste
from improper facilities for the trans
action Of business.
Senator Francis returned 10 his desk
in the senate yesterday and the event
was signalized by the passage thru
that body OF two bills for which he
stood sponsor. One was the bill to fo.-
bid interference with the wards of the
state or enticing inmates of the in
Gucrrial schools to run away or to leave
while on parole. The other was TO de-
fine unprofessioral conduct on the part
of a person holding a physicians GER
tifcate. Ii was found that while the
law authorizes revocation Of a certifi-
cate Cor unprofessional conduct there
is nothing in the code 10 indicate what
shall be regarded as unprofessional
onduct.
The house has received favorable re
port Of bin which provides that
where an effort has been made to Sc
cure saloon license and i, has failed an
other effort can not be made for five

mert for the longer time is that il is
