Col. Bates Sends Letter to Journal
Readers of Session at Lincoln
Lincoln, Jan. 6, 1908.
Today (Wednesday) was a very
lively scene when both senate and
house convened today to'cast up the
vote on the election of the state of
ficers and constitutional amend
ments. The question came up as
to whether the state canvassing
board had the power to declare the
adoption of the amendments or
whether such devolved upon the
house and senate in Joint session.
When the question arose Senator
Ransom of .Omaha and "Crook-neck"
Taylor, as he is called, a member of
the house from Custer county, soon
locked horns. Taylor opposing the
idea of the Joint bodies declaring the
result on the amendments, and Sen
ator Ransom defending the propo
sition. A hot debate ensued, every
republican siding with Taylor, who
pretends to be a democrat, and was
a candidate before the democratic
caucus for speaker. The caucus
agreed unanimously to vote for the
proposition, Taylor being a member
of that caucus. After a hot de
bate of two hours with Taylor on
the side of the republicans, but with
Senator Ransom on top so far aa
the debate was concerned, an ad-
ournmcnt was taken from one to
three o'clock. Lieutenant Governor
Hopewell presided in the Joint ses
sion, and after the adjournment the
writer had the pleasure of meeting
Mr. Hopewell, and found that he was
reared in Worth County, Mo., where
the Journal family resided so long.
