Just before the Eli was read, Pres

OF tue session two years ago presided
over the uppAr branch Til the fate or
Mr.. Gilbert's.bill was sealed.
The secretary had just finished
reading the bill whei Senator Gar

finally enacted In this state, and that
to pass this bin pertaining to the rail
road commissioners riding free over

Of the railroad commission, and that
they should receive salary enough to
permit them to pay their fare
Senator Gilbert in defense Of the

tor Gardens point was well taken. He
had gone into the matter at some
length, and he had discovered that
during the past two months 1t had
cost the state $1,575 for the commits.
sion to travel over the state. He said
that the commissioners stand between
the people Of the state and the rail

people themselves could not settle
otherwise. The roads had expressed
a willingness to furnish the transpor-
