 Last Weeks Business.
 The legislature has been in session one week, and has, in addition to the large number of bills that have been introduced and the great amount of committee work that has been done, and the great volume of the reports from the state officers that have been received, passed two bills which are TOW q part of the statutes of the state The first one of these. a bill which in other states often takes as much aS a week to get over, was the appropriation bill that provides the salaries of the legislators and the at taches and expenses of the house for the special session. The second one was the bill authorizing the payment of the interest on the bonds of the state semi annually instead Of annu- ally. as heretofore has been the case.
 The senate has q calendar fixed up that contains number of bills that will be discussed in the com mittee of the whole during the first days Of the week, while two bills. one providing for the bridge over the Colorado at Yuma. and the other the anti lobbying bill, will come up for final passage this morning.
 In the house there are a number of bills in the committee Of the whole calendar. bills that have been read a second time. while there are also number of committee reports or
 special subjects to come in this week.
 Today is to be the first payday of the present session. The attaches and legislators will both be paid to- day Auditor Callaghan and his force
 has been busy preparing the checks
 for the state house bunch and will
 have them ready before the end of
 the days deliberations.
 A Merry Fight.
 In the senate there will be merry fight this week more than likely on the amendment to the revised stat
 utes of Arizona, proposed by Worse ly of Pima, repeating sections 36S4, 36S5, 36S6, and probably 36S7 These sections appropriate for the use of the Normal school at Tempe twenty sections of land in the Salt River valley that were to be selected within six months after the territory of Ari- zona became a state. It is alleged by the proponents of the Worsely measure that nearly a year has elapsed since that time and no action has been taken. It is understood that Davis of MaricOpa will champion the cause of the Normal and make fight for the defeat Of the measure. ! Those who remember the land fili- buster of the last sessions expect a right joyous time when the matter comes up for discussion both in the committee of the whole and the final i passage n the event the committee of the whole urges the bill do pass. l Bradner Matter Again. The case of Sam B. Bradner, the former speaker and member from 1 Cochise. as well as that of Harry | Saxon, of Santa Cruz. is expected by 1 some to come up again this week. There was a rumor to that effec: 1 in the corridors on Saturday. There | were a number of the members of 1 the house who were of the opinion 1 that should vote be forced upon l a resolution to declare the seat va cant, it would prevail. This it is al 1 legged to be nothing more than a 1 movement on the part of the oppo- 1 nents of the administration to make the majority in the house on anti administration measures that much 1 the greater and more certain. l However. Jacobs, one of the leaders of the anti forces. said he would have | nothing to do with any such move ment He had expressed himself, he | said in his vote against the gentle | men when the credential committed | reported in the early days of the l week. and as far as he is concerned | it is a closed incident
