Let Us All Boost For Greater Monroe City and Vicinity

OF committee to meet a mirthful
death on the floor of the Senate.
The bill was amended to death by
both republicans and democrats.
The Rural Credit bill has been
reported favorably out of commit
tees in both branches of the Legis-
lature. The bill provides for estab-
lishment of State bank, money to
be appropriated out of the State
revenue fund to amount of 100000
to finance the same. 1t is said by
the sponsors of this bill that if
made law it will solve the finan-
cial problem of the farmers. The
aim of the bin is TO furnish money
to farmers on real estate, long term
loans, at low rate of interest. with
no renewed commission. 1t is es-
timated the mortgages are about
S113,000,000, running on an aver
age of three years, or about $40,-
100000 maturing annually. At
the reasonable renewal of two per
cent this would mean a saving of
$8O0,000 year to the farmers and
the lower rate of interest would
mean about $2.500,OOO or total of
$3,250000 annually. A COnstitu-
tional amendment has also been
introduced whereby this bill, if
passed. can become effective.
Senators Goodson's and McClin-
tics Workmen's Compensation bills
have been reported favorably out of
committee in both House and Sen.
ate, Senator Goodson's mutual au-
tomobile insurance bill has passed
third reading. This bill provides
for the organization of mutual au-
tomobile insurance companies, pro-
viding the method of doing bu siness
necessary insurance to be in force;
and providing for a proper inspec-
ton und examination by the super
intendent of insurance.
A printed report of the Minimum
Wage Commission had been dis
tributed, but no bills along this line
have been introduced.
The series of bills along the line
of penitentiary reform were intro
duced in the Senate by Hawkins,
chairman of this commission. One
of the measures provides for nom
partisan management of the peni-
Tertiary and abolition of the private
contract system; another creates a
reformatory for female criminals;
another calls for the establishment
OF a hospital for the treatment of
the insane criminals at Jefferson
City. 1t is stipulated that the
woman's reformatory must be To-
Gated at some point where their
labor may be utilized in some en-
ployment of a useful character for
some of the State eleemosynary in
stitutions. The bill for establish
ment of the hospital for the crimi-
nal insane carries an appropriation
of $4,000 to erect the necessary
buildings and the reformatory bill
an appropriation of 100000 for
purchase of a site, erection of build
ing and temporary maintenance.
