Among this mass of bills It goof out saying that there were good bills and 'had. bills. We say good bills bo-cause bo-cause wo know of a number with much merit;' and bad bills because we likewise know of some that we think are bad. Among some of the good ones are the municipal bills that were passed, and right here let ua compliment Senator Funk on his good work. When it looked llko a number of meritorious bills were doomed Senator Funk took hold of them and saw to It that they were put thiough. It Is no use to talk about tlio good bills that were passed as they will, become u part or tho stato, and will speak for themselves. It Is tho good that failed that attenion should be called to, so that citizens anil taxpayers taxpay-ers can keep thorn lu remembrance and get after thorn on the first day of the next session. Probablythe ono bill that should have passed that means nt much to Logan as any other bill was the bill providing machinery fo itho floating of city warrants. This would havo saved thousands of dolhus to Uic taxpayers and should have passed, but in tho rush of tlio last few days it was lost with a batch of others.
