State Gossip in Capitol Corridors on Uniform Text Book Bill
In the house yesterday Mr Witeen of Clay challenged a statement that the minority report on the uniform text book bill was written by a book concern. He said the report was prepared by a capable member of the house, and denied book firms influenced the vote. Mr West claimed some paragraphs echoed county school superintendent protests, with no book firm involvement proven. The debate touched 1893 1895 positions and the conduct of the minority report. The vagrancy bill by Mr Calvin of Richmond, amending sections of the code, passed the house 117 to 7 and is likely to pass the senate, defining vagrants and prescribing procedures, including penalties and court duties. The Exposition appropriation and county increases were noted, with St Louis exposition funding set at 50 000 and various county increases reported. Governor Terrell and Attorney General approve the appropriation. Kennedy’s nomination as solicitor in Irwin county was confirmed. Eastman Kodak ads conclude the notice.
