Water Bill Sent to Senate

The Pitt water bill, assembly bill
No. PIG, received its quietus in the
lower house this morning when As
semblyman Pitt moved that it be laid
on the table, his object being to ave
the measure for possible considera-
ton during the dying hours OF the
session. But pending action Gala
CHER took advantage of the situation
and under a motion to reconsider
had assembly bill No. l63, the peo-
pies water bill, forwarded to the SEN
ate, which takes it from further con-
sideration by the assembly, though
Pitt had a motion for reconsideration
before the house, and this would have
held till the time for final adjourn
ment arrived.

Senator Pittman
Might Have Known

An executive session OF the senate
was held yesterday afternoon and
while the subject matter under dis
cussion has been kept more OF less
secret it is generally understood that
it concerned a vile disease that has
broken out on many sheep ranges
throughout the state. What was
done in the matter has not been
learned, but it is stated that more
executive sessions of the senate are
to follow before the subject under dis
cussion is exhausted.
From what shas leaked out. how
ever, concerning the matter, it is evil
dent that Senator Key Pittnan spoke
advisedly when he stated a year and
a half ago that most OF the sheep
herders of Nevada belonged to an
undesirable class.
