Bpecial Digpatch to The Tribune, SPRINGEIRLD, i1, Feb. 28,—It Is a ridiculons pastime for one to run_over the tities ol bills now pending in the Benate. A stranger to “Ilitnols would think its peopte lived under the Commune, where no laws wero in force, 80 many and so varied are the prapositions of gov- crmnent, Only one class or professfon has escaped lie vigllance of the Senators thus far —ihe corp-doctor. - As usual, Farmer Whiting began first with his bill to regulate the rate of interest, and thus far has been fallowed In the game line . by Fuller and & haif-dozen othera. McDawell opposes all 8tate Boards, particularly that of Equalization, whi'e Herdman rushes in 1o establish auothier, on Fish, Coming from a lecuse, MNbernl county, the ven- croble John Thomas wants & stringent liquor - law, nand all ‘over the Senate come regponses from Red and Blue Ribbon dis- ciples, though tlie chances are ten to ope thut the present ‘low la not touched. Muon wants peraunal property exempt from taxation, while Joslyn would have the sbirt oo n man's back to roise reveuuc. DBash, baving been kicked by bulls and squeezed’ by beurs, rets after the brokers. Bonfleld, foaring these samo animals, wwints fonces bullt forty fset hlgh, Archer sym- pathizes with idlots, evidently having in view 1ho future of the fiat-money fellows. Malden Jones dow’t like banks; therefore they oughit to ‘e required to make s public statement every Saturday night. Kelly wants tho Registry Inw zepealed because It annoys the voters. Hamll- ton protests againat a travellng Supreme Court, and gets lig bill throueh providing for o consoliduted court ut the Capltal. And so onc might go on io- ainitely " dlscovering mew beauttes in tho proposed legislation. If all the swend- wments tothe statucs now ponding wers made utoluws, the State would have to order a new rovision at once. Beuator Bash presented a letter and petition frow J, G.

E, Mallory & Co., Shunnon Brothers & Co., R. P, & M. Conger, unid othiers, McDonald mokes an elaborate defense of nimsclf, showing that the cliarges cmanate from men whom he had at differcot times prosecuted for inhumanity. ‘The several papers wera laid on the table, Mc- Donold having slready been confirmed. Eeoator Bash wanted the papers rrlm:d, which caused some debate. On acall of the roll the printie wos defeuted.
