not likely that an effort will be made to
bring It up again. But fifty-four votes
were cast In hs favor.
Former Judge Gilbert came to the legis
lature for the sole purpose of securing the
passage of the bill, upon which he has
labored for years and In the preparation of
which he has personally expended a for
tune. Twa years ago the senate passed th
bill, but then. like today, it failed to get
through the bouse.
