It was all In go however. Mr. Wright waa explaining thought the appropriation of too much. He aatd: I "Gentlemen, we have already MO,000 In collecting an exhibit; would be absurd to spend til time i hea (tleman [oration how give so, but with so dg heap ter part of the splendid gentleman from Chatham’’- Mr. Anderson: “If the only heard the last half of and Is willing to give 110, much wouldn’t he be wlllll If he had heard It all?” Mr. Wright: “Well, possl seriously, what would we much money?

It Is strange that an opponent of a bill always considers the measure “the most dangerous ever proposed In the house." It might be mentioned that among those present every day In the speeches of the house are the words "of grave Importance," "the people of this grand old state," and “glittering generalities." These little original expressions aro coined most every day In the house. Wouldn't It aggravate you If just when turning Into the home stretch of your master oration. Just as you pro ceeded to draw up a conclusion that would stir tho hearts of "the peepul,” the man right In front of you should open a newspaper and begin to read? That’s what happened on the floor of the house Wednesday afternoon while A member was making the speech of his life. CLAIMED_BY BROKERS Breach of Contraot la Charged Against New Orleans Firm in Suit. If the house does not get busy pretty soon and pass some of the senate bills the lower branch may expect & sudden shut down on Its bills In the senate. The temper of the senate was shown some time ago when a resolution was Introduced to ask the house to devote one day of the week to senatd meas ures. It developed that a rule provid ing for that was already In existence, but that nobody paid the least atten tion to It The resolution was lost because some of tho more conserva tive senators thought it would anger the sensitive members In the house, and do more harm than good. But It was pretty clearly Intimated than that the senate could, on suffi cient provocation, have recourso to re taliation, and quietly nit hour h<> lung as the house was oblivious to senate measures. Much of that spirit Is beginning to ovldenco Itself now as the general as sembly moves out on the last half of the session. Senator Steed hnd a bill which passed the senate early In the session to compel railroads at small stations to keep depots open at night prior to the departure of trains. He was very much Interested In the bill because it Is an Important matter to people In small towns. But though the bill has been over in the house some weeks nothing has been done with It. The senators are not prone to say much about this matter, but they show their feelings now and then. A well- known house member came over a day or so ago, and naked one of the promi nent senators why the senate did not pass a bill In which ho was much In terested. He got the answer about like this: “My boy, we kinder believe in reci procity over here. You fellows sit over yonder and chew the rag about your bills, spin your little pet projects through a-whooplng, and serenely ig nore bills wo pass and send over there for your distinguished consideration. "It evidently don’t occur to you fel lows that we folks over here have a constituency to serve and bills we are Interested in that we should llk*‘ t • have some sort of showing. When your side of tho house shows a disposition to get busy with some of our little old affairs, why I think there’s quite a raft of house bills up there on the desk that we might do something with by extra exertion." And that Is about tho way the sen- ato feels. They will hammer away on senate matters quietly until the house shows somo signs of loosening up the quarantine against senate measures.
