APPROPRIATION
BILL Up AGAIN
House Approves Bill in the
Committee of Whole With
! Section for New Expert
mental Farm in This Val
ley in It

The general appropriation bill as
on that subject some time ago, and
since then amended by the commit
tee in subsequent meetings, was be-
fore the house committee of the
whole for the greater part of yes
terday. When the bill which bears
the number H. b. so was brought
out the first time this session it
carried with it appropriations
amounting to about s1,800,000 was
Increased slightly by adding to the
appropriation for the corporation
Commission increasing the amount
for contingent expenses for that body
by about $4,000. Shortly after this
the sections relating to the loan
commission, the bonds of state of
ficials. and the public state printing,
which are provided for elsewhere,
were stricken from the bill
For while it looked as if there
was going to be great deal of OPP
uosition to the bill but it was devel-
oped when the matter was all clear
ed up that most of the members
fic sections of the bill For instance
Professor Forbes of the University of
Arizona agricultural department was
called upon the floor of the house
and subjected to thorough examin-
alton on the why's and wherefores of
the proposed appropriation for a
new experimental farm in the Salt
River valley and to gradually dis
pose of the present location, needing
thus $4,000 more than usual. Pro-
fessor Forbes satisfactorily explained
this and the appropriation was ap-
proved.
One feature of this bill that was
not cared for in the other bill is that
of armories. $4,000 is provided for
armories at the rate of $1,000 per
Year, but to this must be added by
the cities in which the armories are
located an equal amount by the CT
ties, raised by subscription, and an
Sc dequate site. Sorae objection was
made to this but it went through all
right finally. It's said that the sen
ate will have no objection to speak
of to the bill as it is now drawn
= some little excitement was caused

ton to some structures in the man
agement of his office made by Sen
ator Wood, and requesting an inves-

Yesterday morning the senate
agreed by a vote of to 8 to sub
stitute the old local option bill for
the county option proposition that
was included in S. b. 9. There was
considerable argument before the de-
cision was arrived at.
In answer to the telegram sent
yesterday by the president of the
senate and the speaker to William
Jennings Bryan declining the invita-
ton to address the joint session of
the legislature. stating that his stay
in the west would not allow him the

Both houses agreed to the confer
ence report on the pharmacy bill
and it was sent to the governor. A

pointed for H. b. II, the seat of

it is regarded generally in official
circles that the bill is regarded there
as even more offensive than any pre-

That the japanese are not disposed
to let pass unchallenged the frequent
statement from California of the

IMMIGRATION BILL Is DEAD
Spectators Throns Senate Galleries
Throughout Three Hours Debate
-Seventy-two Go on Record
to Override President.

WashlngtOn.-By a vote of 213 yeas
to ia nays the House refused to fol.
low the Senate and override Presi-
dent Taft's veto of the Dillingham;
Burnett immigration bill. The friends
OF the bill lacked five votes of the
necessary two-thirds. The measure
had previously been passed over the
Presidents disapproval by the Senate.
The eighteen Senators who stood by
the President were: Cation. New Mex
leo; Clapp, Minnesota; Clarke, Ar
kansas; Curtis, Kansas; du Pont, Del
aware; Gronna, North Dakota; Gus-
genheim, Colorado; McCumber, North

diana; Smith, Maryland; Smith, Mi
chlgan; Stephenson, Wisconsin; Stone,
Missouri, and Warren, Wyoming
Charges that the steamship lines
and Northwest railroads were active
ly lobbying in Washington against the
bill were made in a spirited speech by
Senator Lodge.
Senator Stone objected to the liter
acy test, and declared that some of
the most dangerous alien criminals in
America are we'll educated, and would
have gained admission to this country
even though the literacy provision
had been the law when they came.
Interest in the bill was shown this
afternoon by throngs of spectators in
the Senate galleries. These came /
partly to hear the speeches made dur
Ing the three hours of debate. The
announcement of the result was greet
ed with loud outburst of applause
and general clapping of hands.
Support of the Presidents position
was voiced by only few Senator'S
lodge and Dillingham;, leading the
light to override the President de-
'lared the measure contained so MANY
important provisions for the exclu-
ion of criminal, diseased and insane
llens that great harm would result
o the United States if it did not he
ome law.
