might be Interested in. Tbe first measure
they will urge Is that for placing the gyp
sum mines under the state law and having
them inspected- There hi a large body of
men Working the gj-peum mines, which is
just aa haaardous work as thst of the oneJ
mines, and yet ne steps have ever been
tsken if give them protection. Thar may
also ask for an additional mine inspector.
The represents Uvea of the railroads are
kept busy these days explaining why biUa
should not pass. An apparently insignifi
cant bill which is causing some snntrrasice
ta Uie raUraads is te forbid the charging of
an extra fee where fares are paid oa the
train. It is admitted that ia many in
stances this is a greet trouble to the pas
sengers, bat tbe raft roads assert that n is
a necessary' fine against careless panseiurera
and ta abolish it would caass endless
trouble for Uie railroad employee.
