that was about all. The bills didn't
agitate the senate in the least and the
house looked on the measures with
rather cold indifference.
The most vital of the welfare meas
ures, perhaps, were the child hygiene
and mothers pension bills. The ad-
ministration house trimmed the APP
preparation item from the hygiene
bill and passed the measure. That

three Cub athletes donned the SPAN
giles Monday, hustled to the grass COW
cred diamond of the Tampa ball park
and began active training for the 1915
pennant battle. At this particular
moment Red Carrigan and Art Phe-

second baseman, as closely as they
are the ball which is being hurled
them, while Bubbles Hargrave is
keeping a weather eye upon Tyree.
The veteran twiflers are paying
strict attention to the doings of re-
cruit pitchers. Not only are those
Cubs here to train for the pennant
battle, but there are thirty-one men
on this squad and but twenty-one- will
remain. It's a survival of the flttest
and every recruit is watching every
other recruit and every veteran is
watching them all.
With this spirit of rivalry perme-
ating the entire squad, it was not nee
essary for Manager Bresnahan to urge
his men. He had to beg them to take
it slowly and remember that Tampa
would be the scene of action for 81
days. So as the men were handed
their uniforms Monday they were in
structed to do no more than toss the
ball and throw it easy. That will be

Judicial Troubles.

Judicial Troubles.
judicial apportionment was one of
the things recommended by Governor
Capper in his measure. The senate
promptly passed such a bill and now
the measure is doomed to die in the
house.
The house carried out the COVER
ner's recommendations to abolish the
offices of irrigation commissioners,
board of corrections and hotel inspec-
tor. The senate as promptly killed
the bills. So at the end of so days
none of these promises are redeemed.
short ballot, providing for max
ing the offices of superintendent of
insurance and state printer appointive,
was urged in the governors message.
No measure of this nature has passed
either branch of the legislature
Governor Capper also recommended
free school textbooks for patrons of
city and district schools. A bill of this
nature was introduced by Lamb of
Dickinson, Progressive, but did not
reach first base.
Double election boards were rec
commended by the governor, but such
measure has not as yet become a
law.
A state bureau of immigration was
another suggestion from Governor
Capper. And there is another meas
ure not awakened by the fifty day
alarm clock.
The three-fourths jury verdict,
recommended in the governors mes
sage, passed the house but has not
found its way through the senate.
Both the house and senate have
agreed to abolish the barber board
and provide for one person to inspect
the hair cut and shave parlors. A
rural credit bill has passed both
houses and conferees have agreed on
a mortgage registration tax bill-al
though the last provision is not in the
governors message or party platform.
Recommendation by the governor that
the office of state oil inspector be
abolished, seems to have been forgot
ten in both houses.
That is, in brief, the record of the
fifty days of the 1915 session-ex-
empting the business in the closing
hours of today's session. 1t indicates,
legislative observers believe, the full
fillment of fewer platform pledges
than by any legislative body in recent
years and the passage of but few i'm
portant measures. On the other hand,
the present legislature has smashed
all records in the Introduction of bills
and threatens to ring up a total of
1850 original bills in the two houses.
