ing charged with serious inconsis-
tency. Friends of the railroad say
they think he will take this course.
Sentiment. naturally. divides as to
what the result would be IL vetos
are forthcoming on these bills. Even
opponents say that they should ex-
pect to see the Cooper bill passed
over the veto. 1t surely would be an
the House, the uncertainty being in
the Senate. 1t Is the reverse with
the railroad tax bill. A veto OF that
would surely be overridden In the
Senate. but might be sustained m
the House, though its friends say
they can muster the necessary votes
to overthrow any objections OF the
Governor.
At the caucus of Republican SEN
ators Tuesday it was agreed to
stand by the financial program which
had been mapped out. This was the
big factor in changing the adjourn
ment situation. The decision means
that matters will be sent along rap
idly and that the chances Of long
debates and floor battles have been
greatly diminished.
At this time there is only one mat
ter ahead which may consume time
and that is the Gagne-Parent bill
providing for a finance commission
for the city of Lewiston. This came
into the House with three reports
from the. legal affairs committee at
the Tuesday afternoon session. One
report was "ought not to pass" sign
ed by five members; second was
''ought to pass in new draft and
was signed by three members. The
new draft took away the veto power
of the commission over appointments.
The third was "ought to pass in new
draft signed by two members. This
new draft takes away the veto pow
er and provides for referendum.
In the House this will, probably,
be the subject of a somewhat lengthy
debate as with the exception of Rep.
Gagne. the entire Lewiston delega- /
ton is opposed to the bill.
