he Law is valid: that the journal
# the house does not show con-
that no quorum was |
present; that as to whether or
not a quorum was present was
matter for the house itself to de-
termlne by roll call, and such
proceedings we're not had in the !
house, therefore, the courts must
presume a quorum present. Sew
eral of the rebellious members
of the legislature made affidavlts
that they were not present when
this law was passed and these
several affidavits were offered as
evidence In the case before Judge
Allison, which he declined to
consider, and in declining said:
"But compliments contend
that the court may look to and
consider statements in the Gov
ernor's veto message, and state
ments made In protest or explain
alton of members of the house
not appearing on the journal,
and to affidavits made by some of
the thirty.fve members for whom
the speaker answered mot vot-
ing'' that they were not present.
'If members Of either house of
the general assembly willfulIy
absent themselves from the body
to which they belong they there
by forfeit their right to be heard
in any way as to anything trans
plrlng in the body during their
absence, and the courts will not
hear them set up their own
wrongful conduct to lnvalidate
any proceedings had during their
| absence.
"The only place member of
the general assembly may be
heard to speak, as such member,
| is from his desk In the house to
| which he belongs, and then only
while such house be in session
for the transaction of business;
anywhere else he is not legisla-
tor, and will not be heard as
such, by the courts, either off or
con affidavit" to say or swear
anything which might tend to in
validate the acts and resolutions
and proceedings of that body had,
| and taken, during his willful alb
sence.
"Members of the general as
sembly in the discharge of their
duties must speak to the courts
through the journals of the house
to which they belong while such
house be in session for the trans
action of business, and courts
| will not hear them in any other
| place, nor in any other way, such
being the plain intention of the
constitution of the state"
The case has been appealed by
the compliments and will prob.
| ably be heard by the Supreme
| Court during this month. II
Judge Allison is upheld by the
| Supreme Court, and that he will
be there seems to be little doubt,
Tennessee will have made long
| stride toward recovery from the
| various blows that have been
dealt the best interest of the
state through fusionism; the
missing link between the fac
tions of the democratic party
| will be supplied, and politics in
Tennessee will once more take
its proper place on an elevated
| democratic plane, and the people
of Tennessee will be treated to
responsibility in the policies OF
| our state, instead of mongrel mis-
management of the affairs.

BILL INTRODUCED
TO BUILD MANSION
Continued from page one.)

TO pass an act putting ii into effect,
they resubmitted il a second time
and it went down by a majority.
Before 1900 when the amendments
were submitted upon the general
ballot, the average ote on such was
53 per cent of the total. and that on
the liquor question, the votes on 9th
er measures not getting up to that
per cent. The highest vote ever re-
corded on any II amendment was
on the capitol removal resolution on
which over 80 per cent OF the voters
expressed themselves. On moral
questions since 1900 the average has
been from SO 10 81 per cent: on rail-
road questions the vote has been
from SO to SO per cent, and on the
different votes on the question OF in
creasing the salary OF the attorney
general the vote has ranged from 20
per cent on the first vote to 80 per
cent on the later votes.
One bill which will be introduced
which makes II Il misdemeanor TO put
ont Il political circular without an
~authoritive name upon it. will go Il
long way toward putting Il stop TO
the circulation of political matter
over the name COMMITTEES" or ''citi-
zens", which is the usual way of
starting an attack where the real
motive is desired to be kept hidden.

ton of whether Leo Gross, the tall
est boy in the senior class in Alton

The class passed a resolution ask

worth at such impertinence from the

ment exercises in a calico wrapper.
But today she heard that the class

ey II bought Il pair OF long pants
of ridiculous pattern and that they
intended to kidnap Leo and force

Range OF Hog Prices
C,ossip az Tuesday,s Market.

Sioux City, Ia.--There was Il
hearish undertone to Tuesdays fat
cattle market which was most pro-
nounced on beef steers. These kinds
we're generally quoted a dime lower
and in some cases more, while butch
err stock was in slightly stronger de-
mand at weak to 10 cents lower
prices than those governing late last
week. Beeves are quotable AT $3.50
a $50; dry fed cows and heifcrs
$500 q 700; butcher stock $3.50
a 6.75; nj and hin COWS 1925
o. 4.25; veal calves $3.50 a 800
and bulls and stays $3.50 q 6.75.
Stendy prices at the advance of a
big dime on Monday were paid for
the usual run or stockers and feed
ers for Tuesday, There was a good
demand and an early clearance re-
suited. Quotations.: Feeders 1925
@ $50; calves and yearlings $3.50
a 6.Sb; and feeding COWS and stock
heifers $3.50 q SIS. q.
Sellers had decidedly the bestsFof
1t in Tuesdays hog trade and were
able to command a premium OF 8 a
10c over Mondays trading basis. This
advance places prices at the high
point in a long period.
The tone to the fat sheep and
lamb trade was bcarish and thus
far this week prices have been low
