House Takes Notice of the Whalloy
Incident.
Senator IIcwc offered a resolution
to correct what may have led to
future trouble. It seems that when
J. W. Bailey wap sleeted dairy com
missioner, the Inw creating his office
had not been signed hy the goyernor,
hence the necessity of a joint resolu-tloure-afllrmlng
'the election, which
was done.
The district attorney's bill wus
brought up, und after several amend
ments being adopted the bill wus
passed by 10 to 11, those voting no
being Senators Bates, Clem, Daly of
Lake, Duly of Benton, IIalncs,Huscl-
tlnc, Howe, Josophl, Maokay. Porter,

The general appropriation bill was
passed by 24 to G, those voting no

spoke In favor of the bill. Driver ob
jected to making a state butcher of
the prison succrlntcntknt, and raised
the objection that It would bo dan
gerous to brlog criminals from dis
tant counties to tho capital for execu
tion. Fulton and Brownell spoke
agalnt the bill on constitutional
grounds. Upon motion of Brownell
tho bill wus Indotlultoly postponed.

H. B. 140, Myers, for more cfllclent or
ganization of national guard,
Passed.
HOUSK FRIDAY A. M.
Nino o'clock wus somewhat too
early for the u embers who hud worked
until midnight, but half an hour
later the House had tattled down to
business for tho lust day's work.
Speeches were limited to live minutes
and considerable business was cleared
up.
The longest discussion was on Sen
ator Kelloy's bill to put tho Torrens
system of title registration -Into op
eration In this stute. Butt, McCul-
loch, Whulley ana Stewart, spoke for
the bill; McOourt, Freeland and
Flugg against It. Tho last named
gentleman claimed that it wus un act
of contiscatlou, as It would ruin the
business of the ubstruct companies.
This is tho only ground of objection
to the nronosed system, but It seems
to haye beon sufllclcnt to defeat the
bill,
Flamr introduced a resolution to
clear up some ambiguity of tho J' ur-
nal records, and to distinctly state
that the vote of censure passed on
Wcdnesduy wasdlrccted at the private
citizen and not at the member of the
Houbo. Roberts aired his Inability to
understand plain English and moved
to Insert tho name of the person cen
sured, which was done.
This rehash may seem like exceed
ingly small business with which to
to take up the diminishing time of
the legislative body. But It must be
said In extenuation thuta plain rec
ord of the Incident would certainly
give the Impression that tho voto of
censure should huve been directed ut
the member who took advantage of
his position to make an unwarranted
andscrurrilous personal attack, on
the floor of the nouse, upon a citizen
present, who had no opportunity to
properly defend himself. It was
therefore nroner Hint the House
should clearly deflce Its position.
Senate lolnt resolution, confirming
the election of J. W. Bailey as food
and dairy commissioner, was adopted.
Williamson's resolution wus adop
ted, limiting speeches to live minutes
lo length.

did not appear dangerous, but Dr.
Humbert, on perceiving that he was
getting worse, summoned othor pliys
icluns.
Though M. Fuuro remained consci
ous, the doctors soon recognized that
the caso wus hopeless, but it wus not
until nearly 8 o'clock that the mem
bers of the family were informed of
the real state nlTalrs, Thoy then cumo

Soon after ho began to lose conscious

letter from his brother. William L.
Chambers, chief justice or Samoa, un
der tho Berlin treaty, dated Apia,

which was tho better part of valor.

respectful on tho surface, and the

Hue character and legal ability, und
tho Brltlsli consul, Mr. Atuxsc, a
nephew of Lord Salisbury's wire, and
a man of 15 years' cxpuilcuco In

who also attended thu trial, refused to
