Brief consideration Of the highway
commission bill in the senate yester.
day hardly served to show where the
lines will be drawn at the finish. The
! superficial indications are that the bill
will pass in a form not very greatly
different from that In which 1t was
prepared by the committee. An amend.
ment proposed by Senator Allen to
make the county engineers appoint
ment subject to the approval Of the
commission was rejected 10 to rs. The
argument on which this was rejected
was that this feature is already fully
covered and the provision in the com.
mittee bill by and, under which the
county engineers are subject to re.
moval by the highway commission and
at all times must carry out the work
in accord with the plans Of the state
highway commission Is sufficient
check on the engineers. Senator Web
Der wanted to make a change in the
bill so that for all bridges of 5000 or
over, instead of $1,000 or over bids
must be advertised for. This was re-
jected as a useless proposal. Senator
Chase wanted to cut out the clause
permitting building of culverts by day
labor or without contracts and In sup.
porting this he savagely denounced the
whole bill. The disposition in the
senate appeared to be to make the
amendments necessary to perfect the
bill and to reject all others. On the
roll call for passage the vote was 3E
| to 9.
There was merriment in the senate
when the report of the committee or
educational institutions was made. II

or some other trihing indisposition,
instead of trying. to rise above these
conditions, they take a positive
pleasure in expatiating upon their
feelings to any one who will listen.
Instead of combating the tendency
to illness by filling the lungs with

Opportunity.

A little more than half a century
ago Commodore Perry with letter
from President Fillmore made his
way into the closed ports of Japan
and negotiated treaty with the
slnog1lu granting the United States
permission TO obtain provisions
needed by our ships i'll the eastern
seas. Our vessels might thereafter
with safety anchor in Japanese wa
ters, and humane treatment to
American shipwrecked sailors was
freely granted.
This peace treaty marked the first
step in the opening of Japan TO the
world, to foreign commerce, and to
residents of other nationalities.
Within ten years after the treaty
the Shoeunate passed away, and the
late emperor, then boy of fourteen
years. assumed the reinS OF govern
