T.ROTSVATIJRH o A Synopsis of Proceedings of the TwentyNinth Geiv eral Session, In the senate on the 11th. Lieuten ant Governor McGilton delivered a short address oa the matter of pre paring bills that ve to be enacted into laws. He urged the senators to J be careful in each bill in specifying whatever sections of the statutes were to be repealed and not to wind up the bill by saying that all sections in conflict with the bill be renealed. Be- cause of this slipshod way of prepar- ins bills ne said me section permu ting state officers to give guaranty bends had been repealed and much confusion had resulted. A message. waj received from the governor an nouncing the apiiointment of William I S.

Please say to the house for me that I stand squarely with the president and in dorse his message for proper control of railroad rates." The telegram was received by Speaker Rouse. The house adjourned at 2:50 p. m. out of re- j spect to the late Governor Garber. whose death was announced in a tele gram received by Governor Mickey from Joseph Garber of Red Cloud. When the telegram was read Kaley of Webster moved for the appoint ment of a committee to draw suitable resolutions. The following were pass ed: "Whereas, By the death of Hon. Silas Garber the state has suffered the loss of a distinguished and honored citizen, who has served many times in public office and by reason of his exemplary life and honorable service has endeared himself to the people or our commonwealth: therefore be it Resolved. That we honor the memory of the Hon. Silas Garber by adjourn ing for the remainder of the day, and that these resolutions be spread upon th journal of the house, and that a copy of the same be forwarded to his immediate family, to whom we offer our sincere sympathy in this their hour of grief." McAllister of Deuel. introduced his reapportionment bill. It is house roll No. 37, and with one slight change is identical with house roll No. 371, which he introduced two years ago and which failed of pas sage. The only point of difference be tween the two measures is that the present bill adds one more county. Banner, to district No. GO. represent ed by McAllister, which now includes Deuel, Keith, Cheyenne and Kimball. The new bill reapportions the senator ial as well as the representative dis tricts. It takes Douglas county out of the Tenth representative district and places it in the Ninth, giving it four ' more rcuresemauves. ami ihsumu ui leaving Douglas in the Sixth senator ial district, as at present, with three senators, the new bill creates- the Fifth district of Douglas alone with four senators, and the Sixth, with Douglas and Saunders, with one sen ator.

The Sheldon resolution to allow the finance committee to visit the state Institu tions and allow expenses to that com mittee only, except in cases specified by the senate, then occupied the time of the law makers until noon.
