President Lewis II. Brown of the
Wyoming senate did o smile when
he referred House Bill 90 to the
committee on education. That's the
way OF tho presiding officer OF the
senate when he is perpetrating a
INDUCING In the numerous.
House SO is in the committee on
education about as incongrous as
a bull would be in n library or a
rabolaisian anecdote in a Sunday
school. The bull-andlibrary com.
parison is. perhaps, the better.
inasmuch as House 50 is. the biennial

The sessions first suggestion of
possibility OF a politically partisan
division on a Legislative question
came in the senate Friday while
the banking code measure. Senate
81. was under consideration in tho
committee Of the whole. The bill
provides that there shall be appoint
ed by a state banking commission. "
which is created by the measure, a
supervisor Of banks who shall
take yer the functions of the state
examiner insofar as these functions
have. to do with supervision of
banks. The state examiner Is ap-
pointed by the governor. Appoint
ment OF the proposed supervisor
OF banks" by the proposed state
banking commission" might be re-
garded. therefore. as an infringe

the governor. Littlo things like this

posed supervisor OF banks with
the governors office. although Sena.

that party partisan politics was in

his thoughts as Sheridan is from

other Democrat discussing the sub.
