A storm of protest resulted when J. E. Stevens, Ratmeey county, moved that the as- signments be tabled. nator Hamilton declared that Stevens’ motion wag dut of order, but Maddock, after a statement explain- ing that'in effect he had already lost his “prerogative to name committees,” ruled that the motion was in order. - jade in Protest Frage of ob- Sips! fae fone: 4 ly in protest, both for the present ses: sion those in the futute, of thi chair's losing of its pretogatives.

He gave no explanation of his vote. Senator P. J.

The vote was again 26 to 23, after Senators Hemil- ton’ and Patterson had further pro- tested. Murphy for the second time moved that the committee’s assignments be adopted, and invoked another series of protest and counter moves by the Nonpartieans. Senator Peder L, Hjelmstad, Walsh cougty, Nonpartisan, moved that the appointments, committées on ap- propriations, cities and municipal cor- porations, and insurance bé consider- ed separately from the list, but with- drew‘his motion when Senator Pat- tergon, in a lengthy talk, chéllenged the validity of the committee on com- mittees’ report, asserting that ‘it was unconstitutional and broke all prece- dents in the senate.

Representative of a New York firm, S.C. Stiller, working through the office of County Agent A. R, Miesen, has announced fhat he is in the market for jackrabbit skins from one to'one million and has appointed Sam Sloven of the South Side Grocery to collect them. . Slightly gray skins are purchased at 48 cents a pound, making the price per skin from 12 to 14 cents. All white skins sell for 60 cents with an everage of 16 to 22 cents for each skin. These prices hold good until April 1 and ¢ash will be paid on de- livery. All skins must be dried. The rabbits may be poisoned, shot, clubbed ofcaptured and Mr. Miesen expressed himself as willing to co- operate with Burleigh county farm- ers in working out methods by. which to _kill the “jacks.” Farmers in this vicinity declare that they have seen as many as 300 or 400 rabbits in one group and this is true of the entire Slope country, according io, Me Miesen. ods Suggested The method most widely used in Idaho and Montana for capturing the rabbits is the build a corral and then have a large drive and, taking in about five or six miles territory, drive them inside the enclosure and then club them to death. A good method for the farmer who wishes to poison the animals is to make a fenced-in, plot in the center mittees, 27 to 22, the Independents’ vote being further augmented when .
