H AKKisnt i:.., May The house re
fused to pass its own apportion;'-1""!
bills.
The killing of thes bills w as a great
surprise to (iovernor Hasiings He has
insisted on a new aoport nment since
the opening of the sessio 1 and believed
it would be accomplished 1 ecause of
the overwhelming Republican ma;,or.ty
in the senate and hous. SrniW li','i
lators believe the govemo.-w.il call an
extra session for the consideration of
apITrioniiieiit bills if the leg slat r
does not recoii-ider its action. Thi-Ix-licf.
however, is Hot general. The
rhanecs are the governor will have 11
fuore to say on this question.
The defeat of the lulls was also a sur
prise to those members not lamiliar
with the mH . ieai movements of the
state c-apitol. irders were issued on
Monday e ening to kill all tile appor
fonmeiit bills. Th friends of David
Martin and Senator Porter voted for
the bill and admit that the failure
to pass them is a knockout for their
leaders.
The congressional apportionment bill
was taken up by the house at the open
ing of the session and defeated by a
vote of 7s. to V.i. The senatorial apportionment-
bill was taken up next. Hct'oi-e
the vote was taken Mr. .Mile- took the
floor and made an eloquent plea for it
passage. He deplore 1 the defeat of
the congressional a; irtioiiment and
charged that the failures toe rry out
the mendates of the constitution in
this resiK-ct liefore were due to the
Democrats.
Mr. Niles said the Kepnblicans now
controlled both branches of the legisla
ture and this excuse could not now be
given. He aptealcd to his colleagues
to pass the bilis and not allow the sen
ate to throw tin- odium of their defeat
ujti the house.
Chairman Lawrence of the congress
ional apjiortioiiiiie at committee was
amazed at th" defeat of the congress
ional apjMirtionmenf bill. He declared
the change of sentiment of the mem
Imts was due evidently to some in.-idioiis
and impenetrable influence.
Mr. Colling 1 Lycomingi made a strong
speech in urgmg the necessity of the
passage of these measures, lie said it
was the plain mandate of the consti
tution that the legislature should ap
jMirtion the state info congressional,
senatorial and legislative districts, anil
apiealed to his party associates to per
form this manifest duty. Jocal dittor
ences should 1m- set aside, and the Re
publican party should rise to the re
spoi sibilify. Mr. olbns contended it
was the overwhelming sentiment of the
jKiiple and the press of the state that it
should lie done and that it was inqiera
tively demanded.
Senator Walton called up the judicial
apportionment bill on third readmit
After a hard tight it was defeated by a
vote of 1! to 14. The vote was recon
sidered, and the lull was istoned.
This means its defeat. The senate also
recommitted its congressional b.ll. It
will likely stay in commit ee.
The senate passed these bills finally,
and they went to the governor for his
consideration: IVohibif ing the givini:
and raising afdse alarm of fire; pr i
viding for the divestiture of liens oi
taxes levied agauist lands sold at judi
