The hand of .suspicion has been rafsed there, but as yet its finger | has not d at any particular mem- | ber or of members. A feéeling of ness pervades the entire chamber | beeause of the rumors of “sack,” which He po! | to-day are being scattered oroadcast. That *“sack” has been us ‘was more than hinted at on the floor of the As- | sembly this morning. Of course there | were no direct charges. but everybody | knew what was meant.. Little else was | talkea of during the " noon recess or | throughout the entire day for that mat- | ter. Most of the members were cautious in their statements, althouga they ad- | mitted having heard the ugly reports | which emanated from a source which no one knows, but others openly asserted their beilef that there had been money sed to influence legislation, and in the xt breath, when pressed to be spucific, ey expressed regret that they could not » what they say they believe. yas money used in the cffort to defeat Senate Bill 199, generally nown as Curtin's irrigation bill? That is the question which is heard to-day in Sacramento wherever leg:slators do con- gregate. It is asked by those on both sides of the contest over the measure. What caused it to become such a gen- erally discussed question was » surprising change over night in the sentiments of | many of the members of the Lower | House with reference to that bill—if their | votes to-day can be taken as indicating | their present sentiments. To those who have watched the contest, and especially to those who last night thought they had | won their fight, the change was little short of amazing. If improper influences | were at work the work was well done by adroit parlimentary manuvers. To- day the opponents'of the bill, witn the added strength of thpse who had joined their ranks since adjournment last night, have made it possible that the measure may ultimately be defeated, either by being voted down or by dying on the flles because of the lateness of the session. PROTESTS CAME EARLY bill which has been before the Legis lature this session has caused such a con- test as that which has been waged over this Curtin-irrigation biil. It was draft- ed by Robert ¥. Hayne, and in_its original form contaified provisions which caused more than one member it a cinch bill and pernicious legislation. Senator Curtin introduced it and it was sent style | to the Irrigation Committee of the | | | | | PROMI | TUR | Senate. That committee, heard all who | desired to present anytling relating to the bill. Prot st it were re- celved from all portions of the State in which irrigation systems exist, and so general was the opposition to many of its features that the Senate Committee on Irrigation practically remodeled it and when it was reported back it was hardly the same measure that ha . been intro- duced. Such were the changes in'it that Hayne s reported to have said that it was ‘né longeF a matter in which he.was interested, although it still contained some of the provisions. of his original measure. In the Senate the contest waged for | | | | [ 1 | days and several additional amendments | were made. There it developed that the firm of Miller & Lux, owners of one of the largest irrigation systems in the State, was one of the corporations oppos- g the bill. It finally passed the Senate and as it came to the Assembly it bore | the following title: | An act requiring uniformity in the furnish- ing of water for sale or rental In any colinty | on final pa [agricultural purposes], and in the charged therefor in any county, vent_ discrimipation and abuse in such fur- nishing or in such rates, or the collection thereof, and prohibiting the collection of any rates in o« ravention of this act, and de- claring unlawful all contracts. agreements and understandings in contravention of this act, and providing remedies to enable the stocl holders of corporations engaged in the busi ness of furnishing such water to prevent such corporations, and their officers, agents and em.- ployes from violating the provisions of this act, or from unlawfudy diverting:or. appropri- ating sald water. Day after day efforts were made to have it considered, but its opponents used every parliamentary means of delaying actlon. Several days ago Dunlap, who strongly favors the bill, secured a sus- pension of a provision of the constitution and proposed to have it read a first, sec- ENT MEMBERS OF THE LOW_I':H HObSE IN THE LEGISLA- AT SACRAMENTO, WHO HAVE TAKEN A CONSPICUOUB PART IN THE DEBATES OF THE WANING SESSION. ond and third time in one day and placed ssage. By filibustering the op- ponents of the measure prevented such action until the hour of adjournment, and for that day the effort failed. | Not until last night did, what was | or counties of the State for irrigation or for | thought to be, the final contest come. | —_— It was by all odds the bitterest fight of the session. Drew, who opposed the measure, endeavored to have it amended by inserting a clause, the effect of which would have been to have given to an Irri- sator who had prior clalm to water, a prior right to use it over some other per- sons whose demand for it was made later. The entire evening session was taken up |in the discussion and every possible means was employed to reach a final vote on one side and to prevent a final vote on the other. Drew's amendment was lost, 19 to 46, and other proposed amend- ments met a similar fate. Finclly, at 10:45 o'clock last night, the bill was passed, 49 to 15. Pann, however, gave notice of a motion to reconsider. RUMORS OF BOODLE. This notice was not regarded as serious by the friends of the measure.

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, March 7.—The University of California Glee Club called upon the Gov- ernor this morning, and after each mem- | ber of the organization had been intro- duced to the university's distingulshed | graduate, they gathered around the Gov= !ernor and sang tollege songs. The Gov- | ernor was not only surprised but pleased. The splendid voices of the singers echoed through the legislative halls and at- tracted many people to the office. The college boys sang “Hoola Boola” with a swing and then struck up the ever pop- ular “Palms of Victory.” When this was concluded the boys paid the Governor a tribute by singing a popular drinking song. The Governor beamed cn the boys and with hearty well wishes the jolly crowd took their leave.

Pursuant to his notice of a motion to reconsider, Pann, soon after the session opened this morning, tried to get the floor for the purpose of making that mo- tion, but Brown was recognized and moved to lay the motion upon the table. Then began a fight which was even more hotly waged than that of last night. Johnson, who has opposed the bill afl along, vigorously opposed the motion to lay on the table, saying that it was not fair to take such action because there was not 4 full membership present and some of the absentees desired to be heard on that question. After a spirited debate the motion by Brown was lost, %0 to 3S. This result was amazing to those who last night were confident that they had won their fight, for they saw at once that their bill was . danger. They be- gan to muster their forces, only to find that during the night they had been de- serted by a number of -embers upon whose votes they had counted and whose votes are necessary to the passage of the bill. Johnson immediately moved that the matter of the reconsideration of the bill be made a special order for Tuesday morning at 11 o'clock. He made a strong speech for his motion, saying that by postponing action everybody would be given a fair opportunity to disciss the measure and vote as he pleased. ‘Walsh of Oakland, who has been one of the leaders in championing the cause of the bill, then first voiced the suspicion, or rather first hinted at th: suspicion that | all was not right. £ | “I am not here nor do I se as an ' advocate of ‘Colonel Mazuma,'" said he in a sarcastic tone, “but I am here and row arise as an advocate of this bill, and 1 protest against this delay.” Continuing, he stated that a majority of the Assem- bly had declared in favor of the bill last Light, and there Was no reason for delay- ing final action. Murphy of San Francisco opposed the délay aiso, saying: “I have reason to belleve there is something behlhd this ef- fort to secure delay. I do not understand the changés which have been made since last night.” After an hour’s discussion, which was participated in by many of the members, Johnsen arose to close the debate. Refer- ring to what Walsh had said, he stated that it was not proper for any member of the Legislature to use such language, that it was impropér in any Legislature. Walsh sprang to his feet and, turning to Johnson, said that he would assert that Mr. Johnson is one of the most hon- orable and honest men in the State. Johnson replied by saying that if Walsh were to devote his whole time and ability | to the creation of a storm for him the very best he could produce would be like | an Alameda zephyr compared with sqme | of the storms through which he (John- son) has passed. CHANGES IN ROLL CALL. Not until nearly noon was the final roll call taken, it being stated clearly by the | Speaker that the question was that of | postponing action until Tuesday.
