SENATE WOULD N0T INCREASE
 THE SALARIES
Refused to Consider Change i'll Compensation of Either Superior Court Judges or Attorney General-Penal Code Up Today

The senate refused yesterday to either touch the present salaries Of the judges of the Superior courts of the state or to advance the salary of the attorney general from the present $2500 per year to $5000 An unex- pected fight developed in the consid- eration of House bill ?. formerly H. E. 99 the bill which designates the state officers, the salaries thereof, the county classifications and the salaries of the county officials.
 The question came up in the com mittee of the whole. and after some Wrangling over the judges salaries Roberts moved that all reference to salary for the judges of the Superior court be removed. from the bill This motion prevailed Shortly afterwards Wood of Maricopa sought to amend the b.n by making the salary of the attorney general 5000 per an mum. and providing that he do not engage in private practice. This raised q storm of debate. and Cuniff wanted to know why the salary of the governor and the secretary of states were not raised. Wood said this could be done but he wanted the attorney generals salary raised then. he didn't care what happened after wards. Finally however, the motion to raise it last. The bill as it came from the house was then approved and recommended for passage. II. E. l. the inheritance tax bill, and H. E. 6. the county boundaries bill were approved and recommended for pas sage A number of bills were intro duced and others passed.
 In the House A little matter of ten bills were considered in the hose in the after noon session of the committee of the whole with Craig up. The munici- pal slaughter house came within one little mark of being recommended for passage Brooks. however, after the committee had recommended the bill and before it could be sent to the style and revision committee for pre- DaratiOn for third reading. interposed a motion to adjourn and the house adjourned The bill will come up to- day.
