The county conrt bill of Senator I (iruher may or may not havej .! been a good thing- If hud parsed! j the senate, bad a favorable committee report, but went over until I 11? xi session, more because it was .. under consideration so late in the * f, i see hi on than anything else. The Archer hill, on which the , senate apetit dure, is on tlio house j calendar, and unless extraordi-j t nary efforts are made if will diej witti the Hdjournment of the session, not. because the members ^ will not pass the bill, but because j K it i? ruled out in the liitht .imtirnt . time. ^ e The house hv a threeto-one j |-'vote passed the hill prohibiting J the granting of beer ami hotel: f privihges, but it will die on the >. senate calendar unless it ran be e. taken u|> tomorrow and the rules r?f the senate b?? suspended so c> that !>ilh can be given their third 1.1 reading on the last day of the . session. ( I e So it goes all along the line.: i- . Measures wliieh hase cost days e and days of labor go over, not ; t because of the lack of merit in i the propositions, hut because g | someone has been able to hold i- the bills or prevent their being s made special ori.ers,and managed to win in the fight against time.
