SENATE IS HARD AT WORK Olenrs Ip Snnir of hc Illinium That Hum lleeu l.nuuliut lliirlirr' lllll Miiy lie llrprnlrd, l.;NCOLN. Jan. 30. - iSpeclal.) As pre dicted In The Ileo yesterday, tho senate has resumed Its afternoon sessions and will probably keep them up until the work which has been dragging behind has been some what cleared- up. Out of rtn oven 200 bills which have been Introduced In the senato only u very few, less than a dozen, the most of which aro curatlvo acts, have been llnuly disposed of. A few more work ing days like today, howevor, should bring the work before the senato well up to date, us there was a largo amount of work dis posed of today, tho greater portion ot tho afternoon session being devoted to bills on general flic by tho sonato sitting as a committeo of tho whole. At the morning session a petition signed by 207 Omaha barbers, and another con taining the signatures of forty-one South Onmh barbers, were read. The petitions asked tho senato to retain on the statute books tho law governing tho occupation of a barber In Nebraska us amended by Hal drlge. and stated that the petition they had signed asking the senate to pass senate file 40. by .Martin, which Is au act to re peal tho barber law. should not be con sldorod, as the bill had been misrepresented to them as an act to nmend the present law. Instead of repealing tho net entirely, which la tho object of Senator Martin's bill. Senator Martin moved that the report be referred to the committee on "ugly rumors," but the motion failed to carry nnd the petition was placed on Hie. Later In the day Senator Martin presented a petition signed by 247 barbers asking for a rupeal of tho law. This petition was also placed on file. During the nfteruoon the bill to ro peal this law came up In the committeo of the wholo and was ably championed by Senator Martin, who was of the oplnlor. that tho law creating this barber's examin ing board was a hardship on the barbers c-f Nebraska and afforded them no protection, A motion was made that when the commu te arise 11 report the bill back to tho A number of new bills were Introduced, a larger number came up for their second reading and some for final passage. Among tho latter Is house roll 8S, tho bill for tho relict of' the courts In Lancaster county In the manner of drawing Juries, which was passed without n dissenting vote. Sen ate file 14, which raises the age of consent from IB to 18 years, was nlso passed. Ths Judiciary committee roportcd on sen ate file 22, a kidnaping bill Introduced by Hansom of Douglas, which provides a death penalty, was, with somo slight amend ments, recommended for passage. Tho same committee also reported on senato file 18, rclatlug to a penalty for vagrancy, recorameudlng tho same for passage, Tho committeo reported on senato fllo 35, a bill providing that proceedings of legislative bodies may be proved by tbo dally Jour nal, was recommended for Indefinite post ponement; senate 'fllo 42, an net for tho protection of feeble minded females, was recommended tor passage; senato flic 46, providing for changes of venus, rocom- mended for passage; senate file 47, rcqulr- U'g nttorncys to fllo with the Justice a bill of particulars of bis demands, and senate flic SO, rolattng to Interest on de crees and Judgments, were reported for In definite postponement. Tho committeo on ngrlculturo reported on senato file 101, nn act requiring a stamp on overy ball of binding twine, and recom mended It for passage. lllll for llrnnil Commission, Tho senato then resolved Itself Into n committee ot the whole, with Hansom of Douglas In tho chair, for the purpose ot conj sldurlng bills on genernl file, a previous elfort by Hansom to have his kidnaping bill como up for consideration beforo tho com mltco of the wholo having failed. It being the opinion ot tho senate that the hill Hhould como up In Its regular turn. Tho first bill considered by tho committee of tho wholo wns senato fllo 62, relating to a brand commission, which was reported back to tho sennto with a recommendation that It bo passed. Senato fllo 40, Senator Mar tin's bill for tho repeal of the law creating a stale board of barbers' examiners, was taken up and discussed, the result being that It was leported back to the senato with a recommendation that It bo passed. Senator Oleson's bill, senato fllo 38, u bill authorizing tho electors of Nebraska to voto for or against a convention to chango and revise thu constitution of tho state nt tho next general election for members of tho leglslaturn, was reported back for passage. Senato fllo 78, a bill by Allen of Kurnas, providing for tho establishment of two moro normal schools, brought out a pro test from Serator Crounse, who gavo many reasons why tho bill should not pass. The bill wns finally laid over until somo future tlmo without ny other action being taken. The bill will probably bo sidetracked owing to tho fact that even should It pass It would locato a couple of normal schools without any appropriation, for although the hill carries an appropriation of $110,000, tho point Is raised thnt all appropriations of this kind must necessarily have their origin In the house. Senator Lyman presented n resolution for nn appropriation to pay tho expenses In curred la the senate contest enses from Douglas county, which was referred to the committee on nccounts nnd expenditures, notwithstanding the protest from Hnnsom that tho resolution should bo considered at once. The resolution cnlls for nn ex penditure of JS.282.2., being t"0 for each of the contestant's attorneys nnd fets for notaries, stenographers, etc. It Is intimated that there will be somo fun when thlt resolution roiuea up before the committeo to which It hns been re ferred and It Is freely predicted that a number of the claims will! bo cut down to a conblderabli. extent, which, doubtless, Is ono of the reasons why Senator llnnsom mado tho tight to keep tho resolution out of tho committeo and have It disposed ot by tho senate at once. There wns uomo wrangling over adjourn ment this afternoon, ono member wnntlng to adjourn until 10 o'clock tomorrow morn ing, another 9 and another 8 o'clock. It was Anally agreed, however, to adjourn until U o'clock tomorrow morning. tl"n: ehanires the constitution only In re- sin-ct tn the voto required nt the general diction, being n reduction from n majority of till votes enst to n tnnjorlty of votes cast for and ngnlnit the amendment.
