woo was wEs ex ox expected expected to make a fight tight for tor the adoption of the minority report moved that tIN the majority report of the committee be N adopted He tie said that he had submitted the minority report not because he wa was opposed to all of the tIlE provisions of the bill but because be he was opposed to per por lions of the bill especially the new sec see tion added by the tle committee Though h he moved to adopt the majority report he reserved the right to contest some of ef It ito provisions when it came up for tor final pas pea sage There was no objection ClIon to t thIs move and the majority report was un nl adopted In the afternoon Senator Badger started the real prohibition which resulted in what Is perhaps the greatest victory vIctey vr scored by b the liquor interests during the present legislature since It ft has apparently Killed allied all hope of legislation inimical to the liquor Interests during the session et f the present legislative assembly Senator Badger moved that the bill be made a a special order for final consideration this tide morning at 10 ro Senator Kuchler said It tt is true that this bill is a very Im Important Important important bill and that is the very reason that it should be given careful con tion An amendment has been added by hy the majority of the committee that Is far more Important than the original Mil bill This Thill amendment is of vital ital importance and should be given the most careful consid consideration consideration This amendment was never seen soen nor heard of by the chairman of yow YOU committee until within five minutes s of the t thea time that the report of the majority maj at sq the committee was made There Is no 1 8 sound reason for this bill being acted upon until the members of the senate made themselves familiar with this Im ha Important 1 amendment Continued on Page 2 LIQUOR DEALERS SCORE VICTORY IN THE SENATE Continued from Page 1 Senator Wilson followed with a short talk urging the Immediate consideration of the measure Then Senator followed supporting Senator contention He said skid that the bill has hB peacefully p slumbered in committee for some name time and he saw no u good reason rea on at this time lor for rushing it through the thel l senate nate Senator John Y Smith spoke 5 oke in support of Badgers motion Senator then declared that he would prefer the Cannon bill to the one submitted bythe committee on manufactures manufactures manufactures tures and commerce He said that this action on the part of or Senator Badger In attempting atten to cram

In answer to the remarks made by b Sen Sea Senator Senator ator Kuchler Senator Badger arose to some corrections and a lively dia dla dialogue dialogue logue between him and Senator Kuchler ensued Lively Dialogue q I wish to correct the statements made by b the senator front Weber county who was as the chairman of the committee which considered this bill biU said Senator Bad Badger ger gOr g r He said that he did not see or hear the new committee amendment until with within in five fI minutes of the time that th com corn committee report was made I want to say Senator Sen Senator or Kuchler that you OU saw the amend amendment ment nent and heard it read at 12 yes yesterday yesterday 88 noon 1 I want to repeat the statement that I 1 Imade Id made ad d Mr Ir President Senator Gardner and f fIlow JIow senators replied Senator Kuch Kuchler I ler ir l r that I 1 did not see this committee amendment nor did I ever hear of it un until until until til a n quarter to 3 yesterday af afternoon afternoon afternoon a I accept the correction said Badger but you Qu said that It was vas only five min minutes minutes mm utes before the committee report was sub submitted submitted submitted Why Wh I 1 think It was less than five min rein minutes minutes utes Insisted Kuchler The majority report rc ort was dictated to the stenographer In less than five minutes from the time ur that I had my m first knowledge of or such an amendment Senator Badger adger than moved the t e question on his motion and President Gardner sub submitted submitted the question to a viva voce oce vote of ot the

forces had apparently apparently lost and the Badger forces wore were radiant in their triumph Senator Kuch Kuchler Kuchler uch ler however seemed to be suspiciously happy happ Before Senator Kuchler had announced what he proposed to do he said that he had arranged for a trip to Logan with a committee to investigate the tue claims of or an irrigation lITigation district against the state but that if this bill was to be considered he be felt that he could not take the time to go goto goto goto I to Cache county It was then decided that by b unanimous consent the senate would adjourn this afternoon at 3 This much accomplished In the way of or delay dela the big Ig coup was then sprung by Senator The Coup The has always been very er fair In Its decisions began Senator Kuchler and hand I think that no has any an com corn complaint complaint plaint to make against any Rny ruling of M the president pre of the senate However I 1 would like Uke to call caU the attention of the president to a rule In Roberts Rules of Order and andI I think that the president will concede that he was as In error and amend his ruling I would rise to a point of order and In Inthis Inthis Inthis this connection read the following from Roberts Rules of Order which apply appl wherever th are not in conflict with the rules of or the senate A special order suspends all an th rules of the assembly that interfere with its consideration at the time specified and It therefore requires a vote ote to tomake tomake tomake make any question a special order I submit Mr Ir President that the vote ote by b which senate bill the substitute for the Cannon bill was as made a special order for tomorrow morning at 1015 was merely a majority vote ote and not a vote ote therefore the bill bm must take its place on the calendar and come up in its regular order President Gardner cardner looked up liP the refer reference reference reference ence in Roberts rules smiled sadly at Senator Badger and announced The point of order Is well wen taken Unwilling to give ghe up the fight Senator Badger caused a laugh by asking that he might change his vote from the affirmative lIve five to the negative that he might move for a It reconsideration The vote ote had been announced and nd It was of course Impossible Impossible sible aible for the chair to recognize the re request request quest of the senator The Finish the ruling that a vote v te teis is necessary to make a measure a special order the bill was placed at the foot of the calendar with long bills ahead of it Th senate nate had already voted to ad adjourn adjourn adjourn journ this afternoon at 3 I so that the bill will probably not be reached be before before fore for Tuesday Its consideration if IC It is considered at all will take two days das which will bring it to the last day da of ot the session In the meantime other Important bills Including the Des Moines bill the Insurance bill the corporation tax ta bill the public service commission bill bm and the appropriation bill will be up for consid consideration consideration er and It seems not at all aU unlikely that the liquor bill will be lot lost in the shuffle Yesterdays triumph for Cor the li Ii liquor liQuor quor Interests is believed to have eliminated all probability pf legislation antagonistic to the liquor traffic at this session se slon of the legislature The entire Incident ended in a hearty laugh in which everyone everone save sae Senator Badger joined Senators on both sides Ides of or orthe the contention crowded around Senator Kuchler and congratulated him on the success of or his clever maneuver |
