| ter complaint, but the majoritieS were
against them in both houses. Accord
| ing to Mr.. Emanuel, the district is
1,5OO republican, at least the socialist
DETECTION makes it uncomfortable for
the democratic party. III the house
the bill had fifty-five votes, six more
than needed for passage. Others came
in, swelling the vote to fifty-nine.
The emergency hung in the balance
with siXtyfive votes. Representative
Mitchell of Garvin county yielded and
furnished the NECESSARY emergency
vote. In the senate twenty-six votes
were obtained on final passage of the
conference committee vote, but late
tonight there were only twenty-seven
votes for the emergency. Senators
Franklin, Mcintosh and Redwine
changed to the affirmative side, which
gave the constitutional vote neces-
sary.
