But if there is a deadlock, and the
two counties can not agree, then one of
the counties can go ahead and agree to
pay not leBs than its share of the cost
based on the assessed valuation of the
two counties and then it will devolve
on the other county to pay its share.
But if this fails, then either county
may go ahead and build the bridge, pay
the entire cost, and have entire control
over the structure.
That it was intended that this mens
ure should remedy the situation existing
between Polk and Marion counties is
evident in the following section:
"In any pending case where the pro
cedure carried out previous to the tak
ing effect of this act, shall have sub
stantially fulfilled the requirements of
procedure under this section up to anv
ing duties of the parole officer. That
was its title bat its object wag to give
the offieer a residence nt the prisou.
The governor wanted it, and through his
workers let the senators know he wanted
it. Garland and Ortnu had a tilt and
Senator Bishop called Hie whole busi
ness "bunk." Garlaud retorted that
).i rhaps the senator meant "shoddy.''
Garland's motion was to reeonsider
the vote by which the bill passed. The
ommission may be ' motion was defeated bv a vote of li
to 7," and the president remarked "the
bill will be returned to the house with
the senate'es compliments."
Routine Proceedings.
Twenty-two house bills were rea l the
first time and 22 senate and house bills
were reported from the committees.
House bill No. 217, relating to adver
tising the sale of school bonds was
indefinitely postponed.
Besides the above senate bills were
m-ted on as follows:
S. B. No- 227, by LaFollette, by re
quest. Abolishing the state board of
horticulture; indefinitely postponed.
S. B. No. 301, relative to bounties
on coyotes, tabled.
S. B. No. 305, relative to terms of
county court in Hood Kiver county;
passed.
H. B. No. 268, the anti-cigarette bill,
was called up, the rules suspended, read
second time and referred. This was
stage, the provisions of this act shall done to try and get it to and from the
eppiy to suDsequent procedure." I committee tomorrow

Along with the serious work of the
session the legislators found time to
joke a little last night and threw a
scare into the Marion county delega
tion when in the voting the members
of the house rolled up a large majority
against the bill. The Marion county
men began to feel the pressure of the
"electric Juggernaut" when allof-a-sudden
the votes were changed and the
bill received the flattering majority of
43 for, 4 against, and 3 absent.
Anti-Cigarette Bill Modified.
Although there was some mi&gryittg
that the Sweeney anti-cigarette bill was
recalled from the senate only to have
its teeth pulled by its enemies it appear
