An Unsuccessful Effort Was Made To

Senate.

Special to The Herald.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, March 49,
Things were moving in both houses Of
the legislature this morning. After
passing the special million dollar bond
Issue in the house for the University
Of Tennessee the solons got busy with
the custer law.
Two bills affecting the custer Law
were introduced in the house by Mr.
Lechleiter and others. One bill
amends the original custer act by pro
viding that officials ousted under the
general law in the future shall be in
eligible for election to public office
for period of ten years after the
judgment Of custer.
The second bill makes similar pro
vision to cover cases of officials who
have already been ousted under the
provision Of the custer law. II the
latter bill is enacted former Mayor
Crump and Howse will not be eligible
for election to any office for period
Of ten years.
The house voted to remain in SEES
sion this afternoon and Saturday, ow
ing to the seriousness OF the railroad
strike situation. Adjournment will bt
taken at noon tomorrow, until Mon
day. The senate adjourned until !:
p. m. Monday.
An unsuccessful effort was made Il
set the prostitute bin for special. or

ton was made to postpone considera
tons indefinitely. And motion tt
table that motion failed by vote o.
Is to 10.
The motion to set the bill for specia
order was withdrawn in order to allow
the bill to remain on the calendar. Il
was evident that the majority~of the
senator's did not favor the bill a.
passed by the house last week.

county, and other points in the state
met to the number Of about fifteen and
decided that Tennessee was entitled
| to and should have a great university
J. /. Finney, editor of The Herald, was
elected chairman of the campaign com
mittee and he at once entered upon
1.-THE discharge Of his duties. At first
lit was decided to ask the legislature
for an appropriation Of 100000 to
pay debts Of the university contract
ed for buildings and in addition. $50,
900 more per annum for operating ex-
penses.
A hearing was given to the commit
tee during the legislative recess by
the committee on finance. ways and
means and the claims of the universe
ty were presented at length by Mr..
Finney, Judge Sanford, w. J. Russell,
Judge McClung, c. p. J. Mooney, Prof.
H. A Morgan, DIR Ayres, the presi-
dent, and others, with the result that
the committee recommended an addi-
tional appropriation Of $4,000 per an.
mum and an appropriation of 100000
to pay the debts.
In the meantime the Joint special
educational committee of the general
assembly, of which Senator c. w.
Rocks, Of Gibson county, was chair
man, visited the university. This
committee unanimously agreed that
more should be done for the universe
ty and that it ought to- have perma-
nent endowment in the way of spe-
cial tax levy. Out Of this grew the
plan to issue $1,0OO,00O and levy a
special tax which was introduced in
the senate by Senator Rocks, with the
endorsement Of both the educational
and the agricultural committees. To
Senator Rocks and Senator Graham
and to their colleagues is due great
credit for the measure.
The press helped nightly in the
campaign. DR.. Morgan, with his great
hold on the people, was tremendous
factor. r. L. Jones, Supt Brister,
the state board of educa-
ton, and others of the school inter-
ests worked nightly for the cause.
