DOINGS AT PIERRE
Bill Passed Abolishing the State Highway
Commission

Bill Passed Abolishing the State Highway
Commission
Pierre, 9. D., February 5.-On close
vote the bouse yesterday afternoon
passed the bill sbolishing the state
highway commission, which was GREAT
ed BY the 1913 legislative session. A
motion to reconsider has been 6led and
1t is quite certain that there will be
another tussle with the question. The
commissions hackers are bringing
pressure on some Of the members who
have not taken a very determined
stand and they hope to defeat the bill
on the second effort.
II the house adheres to its attitude
the case looks gloomy for the highway
commission, as the senate, on q test
vote, has shown willingness to vote
abolition The senate committee re-.
ported the abolition bill for ''indeflnite
postponement," but the author of the
measure carried his case to the floor
and amended the report, making the
accommodation that it "do pass"
The bill is pending on the senate cal.
endar and has not been up for regular
action.
Two years ago there was very little
sentiment for the creation of the high
way commission. but emphasis was
placed on the claim that it would not
cost the state one cent. On this basis
the opposition dropped out and con.
sented to the creation of the board.
At this session members of the oom-
mittee have been on hand laborinR for
salaries and expense allowances. They
aroused some opposition right st the
opening Of the session on the claim
that they tried to "paok" the highways
committees in both branches, evidently
with the view Of securing favorable
committee reports on their measures.
The house bill to allow county mu-
tusl insurance companies to write on
urban property called out fight be-
tween the delegations from Brown and
Minnehahs counties, the Brown
county delegation standing solidly
against it 80 q bad policy for the
mutuals. The Minnehaha county dol.
igation asked that the law be allowed
to go upon the books, resulting in the
whole issue going over.
In the senate the resolution for a
constitutional amendment to authorize
the legislature by a two-thirds ma
jority vote to increase salaries of state
officials took up large part of tho
afternoon, and after being amended to
require three.fourths vote to grant
the increase action was deferred uu-
til tomorrow,
In the house Berdahl started q res
olution for constitutional amendment
to relieve the congestion In judicial
oircuits in the state by allowing the
selection Of two or more judges in or
cults In which the work is isuoh az to
bs too heavy for one judge to handle
properly.
