Committee BiII Differs from Com
pulsOry Measure Of Last session.

Topeka. Feb. There will be
another legislative fight over q
grain inspection law, although It is
not likely TO be as bitter as the one
waged two years ago. The grain
inspection btI introduced in the
house yesterday BY the COMMITTEES
ON agriculture omits Q feature to
which the objections were raised
two years ago and the feature upon
which the law was knocked out In
the supreme court.
The bill Just introduced makes
the inspection of grain optional with
the shipper. The former law made
the inspection compulsory. The new
bill provides for an inspection fee
OF fifty cents per car. It states that
one inspection only shall be neces-
sary.
Since the court passed on the
grain inspection law last summer
the department has been in bad
shape. In fact, 1t has been I'm bad
shape financially ever since the case
was brought following the legisla-
tive session two years ago.

ELECTORAL VOTES All IN.
Develops Fact That Popu-
lar Vote Is Not Obtainable.

washington; Feb. 1.-The certi-
ficate OF Governor Blease Of South
Carolina Of the names Of the electors
chosen at the presidential election
of November was received at the
state. department yesterday CONF
pleting the returns from all Of the
states.
The collection Of these certificates
has developed the fact that there is
at present no means by which any
branch Of the United States gov
eminent may be officially advised
Of the popular vote in the presiden-
tial elections. Most Of the states
content themselves with the mere
report Of the name of each elector
and his vote, without indicating his
party affiliations or affording any
adequate basis for the entertainment
Of the popular vote.

DEMOCRATS WE'RE JUBnANT
Republicans Fought the Measure
Christ's Crucifixion the First
Example Of Recall Says
Senator Mahin.

Topeka, Feb. by vote OF
So to SO the house yesterday passed
the Riddle resolution submitting a
constitutional amendment for the
recall OF public officers! The ayes"
mustered Just two more votes than
the constitutional two-thirds.
Democrats made q demonstration
when the resolution was declared
passed. Waste paper baskets flew
through the air, scattering their con-
tents right and left. The yelling and
cheering lasted several minutes.
Thursday the resolution was UNI
able to secure a two-thirds vote.
Yesterday morning the vote was re-
considered and at once the previous
question was moved and again the
resolution went on roll call for final
passage. Most of the Republicans
who voted against the bill did 90
because they believed that the per
cent of signers on a petition seek-
ing the recall of an official should
be SO per cent instead of Is per
cent, as the Democrats wanted It.
Others proposed it because the re-
call also applied to the judiciary.
There was much explaining Of votes.
The senate also considered a re-
call measure yesterday morning and
after a long debate the resolution
was referred to the judiciary COM
mittee. In opposing the radical
features Of the recall, Senator Mahin
of Smith cited that the trial and
execution of Christ was one OF the
first examples Of the initiative and
the recall.
"The mob" said Senator Mahin,
insisted upon Christ's death. Three
times did PLATE, as Judge, try Him
and refuse to condemn Him. Then
the mob started a recall by declar-
ing that unless PLATE ordered
Christ's crucifixion, appeals would
be taken to Caesar, and he would
cut off Pilates head Then Pilate
weakened and Christ was executed.

tive Orr of Livingston, represented
the opposition to the bill in the
use. He asked that the matter
be laid over until next week on the
ground that many of the members
had gone home and declared it
should be settled by a vote of all
the members.
After the bill was placed on the
calendar Representative Hay asked
that special time be set for hear
ing the bill. This probably will be
fixed for some day next week. 1t
was "dry" victory and indicates
that the county unit bill will get

Topeka, Feb. 1.-The intermar-

yesterday by the senate judiciary
committee after it had passed the
house by q one-sided votey The
bill, which was introduced by Repre-
sentative Herr Of Barber, WIS BIT
terly fought in the house, but was
passed by a good majority and mes
saged over to the senate. The sem
ate sent the bill to the judiciary
committee, OF which Bale Waggener
Is chairman, and yesterday the COM
mittee decided that there was no
great need of any such law in Kan
sas and quietly chloroformed the
bill. A number of colored persons
appeared before the senate and pro-
tested against the passage OF the
bill on the grounds that 1t was In.
tended to humiliate them. One COL
ored preacher onfprmed the COM
mittee that in residence of twen-
ty-four years in Topeka he had
known of only one marriage be-
tween white and colored persons,
and in this case the parties had been
married in another state.
