The protest- ing wires are from film companies and theater proprictors, The bill prohibits all kinds of vaudeville or theatrical performances and provides a penalty of heavy fine or fmprison- ment for mot more than six months or both. Representative Howell also introduced & bill in the House Thursday morning prohibiting the cperation of amusement parks for profit on the Sabbath. These bills v:ill be heard by the temperance com= ndtteo of the Senate Monday morne ing at 8:30, when a number of rep=- resentatives of picture theaters are capected to be on hand. Senatop Llitch, the author of the Sunday picture show bill, is the chairman of that committee. The House now has before it more than 460 bills and its calendar is fifty-nine pages thick, Speaker Farris announced from the chair that the committee on rails roads and telegraphs would consider Lis bill enlarging the powers of tho railroad commission, at 8 o'clock on Tuesday eveuning in the hall of the House of Representatives. The first important action of the House Thursday morning was tho passage of & bill which had already passed the Senate fixing the salaries of the following administrative of- : ficers of the State at $3,600 dollars n year and requiring that all feea collected be faithfully accounted for and turned in to the State treasury: Cemptroller, secretary of State, ate '| torney general, superintcudcnt ot public instruction, treasurer, come missioner of agriculture. This bilt reduces the total salary of the treas~ urer, comptroller and gecretary of State, because they now reccive fees amounting to more than $3,600. Al of their salaries werc formerly $2,- 500. The mew law raises the pay of the attorney gencral and the super- intendent of public instruction and probably the commissioner of agris culture who receives some fees now. Sueh a bill would have passed the last session had mot Mr. Tom West, who was then a candidate for attors ney general, been & member of thé House. It would have disqualified hum for the race.
