THE UNIVERSITY BILL,
Consolidation and Segregation Had
Their First Innings in the
Senate Yesterday.
Fight on the Question of the Lo
cation of the University of
Montana.
After Three Hours Debate the irleads of
Segregation acore a Vietory in Com
mittee of the Whole.
For the first time slne the balloting for
United States senator began, there was a
combination of ci oumstances yesterday
that would have enabled the democrats,
with the easistance of Heon. A. J. Davidson,
to haysve elected their man, had they been
united, without the aid of any of the popu
list members; or, with the addition of one
of the populists, and without Davidson, to
have accomplished the same rlsunlt Two
of the republican members of the house
were absent, one, C. H. Bray, being belated
on a snow bound street oar, and the other,
Joseph Annear, being unaccounted for.
Davidson being still sick and not in at
tendance, the total vote was oven sixty
eight, so that it would have taken thirty
five to elect. Banders, of course.
got the votes of all the
thirty-one republicans gresent. Clark
had twenty-five votes, including that
of Beecher, the Cascade county populist,
who thus made good his statepient of the
day before that he had never said he
wouldn't do anything of the kind. Clark's
twenty-four other votes were given by
democrats, Dixon got twelve votes, seven
from demooratio members of the honue,
two from populists in that body, and three
from democratic members of the senate.
In the latter classifioation was senator Gbh
eon, who, with Beecher, had left Collins.
The ten democrats who voted for Dixon.
the twenty-four who voted for Clark, and
the absent Davidson, would have made the
thirty-five necessary to elect had they all
been together. The ten Dixon democrat,
and the twenty-five Clark votes, one of
which was cast by a populist, would have
brounht about the same result.
Consolidation vs. segregation was on trial
in the senate yesterday in committee of t: e
whole, and the verdict was for eeuregatiot.
The bill before the committee was that lo
eating the state uninersity at Missoula.
Benator Gibson offered,an amendmantwhich
meant if Missoula got the university shLe
would have to give in return 160 acres o:
land and $40,000 in cash. The senator
said that he fully believed the location of
the state educational institutions were a
valuable thing for any community by offer
ing on behalf of Great Falls for the con
solidated Institutions 320 acres of
land and $100,000 in cash. The committee
howerve, did not look with favor on the
amendment and rej oted it. Then the
light came on the main question, and it
lasted for three hours, The questions of
consolidation and segregation were dis
cussed from every standi oint, and the sen
ators and the lobby spectators were treate s
to as fine a debate es ever occupied the at
tention of a legislative body in Montana.
tenato; Gibson was fortified with innumer
able authorities in favor of consolidation,
and though he made the fight sing.e
handed and alone, he marshalled his lor.ci
in such a way and showed so clearly hli
sincerity on the position he had taken a. t,:
gain the reseect and hold the attention, It
he di. not the vote of the oppositionI. H.
knew he was making a losing fight, but it
did not seem to take a whit away from the.
earnestness with which be made his pl,la
for consolidation.
Fanator Matte led the fo oos for segreort
ion. lie was ably seconded by renrtorrl
Hoffman and McDermott, but on the Mia.
sonla senator devolved the burdon of an
swering the argurments of the sonator from
Cascade. He, too. had p ep red hil
author ties, and the way he s aored the peo
pie who p spared the address on the stat
educational institutions was a caution.
His argument was to show that the add cs
was misleading in that it contained onl
the opinions of univernity presidents. lit
made a strong , resentation of the advan
taees to be derived in separating the tech
nical schools Irom the university. The
bill was ordered favorably reported. The
consolidation. agricolt: al, and school or
mince bills are vet to be conriderid, but it
is probable that they will not take as much
time as the university bill. The fight fo
segregation was made on it, and as it won,
it is rIobable thbt the other will be qui-tln
act.d a on in the a note. at ,east.
With a recess of a littl ovae an hour for
dinne', the house was in continuous session
from 10 o'clock in the morning until a fee
minutes before six in the afte noon. The
dat's session was not wasted, either, whlel
it is considered that one of the two bills
which have alwa s ocrused long dienusnions,
was gotten out of the way, wrille the other
was advanced to a stage where it will caune
no further t ouble. The one that was got
ten out of the way was the bill establishing
a burean of agriculture, labor and industry,
with an immigration attachment. It wa
passed with only four votes against
it. It was discove ed during the
discussion precedini the perasage of th
bill, that there was no record on the hou.e
jon nal of its ever having been seported
back from committee of ttre whole. 'I he
bill was favorably re orted from com
mittee of the whole on Friday Ilst. and the
omission of that fact from the ouiloinl pro
rcedings does not affect it in any war'. The
other bill that has beers causing consider.
able discussion is that appropriatlng nione,
for the world's fair exhibit. It was gotten
through the colnmittee of the whole with
a $50,000 appropriattlou, mind no more.
)u ing its discussion Itepresentative Look
ey mode some comtments on the fact that
World's Fair Clomissionor Biekford wea
present on the floor of the house
and intimated that the commissioner was
acting as a lobbriet when he ought to be
out earning his $8,000 a year. When the
house adjourned it is said Commllssioner
Bickford spoke a few lines to IReptesents.

county bill, that for Bitter hIoot, through
committ'ee of tile whole, and It will next
come up on its fiHat passage. The ways

making the state tax levy two and one-half

That an extra session of the leisl.ature
was likely has been a matter of rumor io;
some time. In the ounoe of his remarks on
the earlirltu al bureau bill in the house
yesterday. Judge Bach gave out the in
formation that it had been Info malls de
cided to call an extra sessoon for thirty
days. The object, he stated, was the con
emderatlon of the new codes, It has been
generally conceded by all who have given
the matter any attention, that the legisla
ture, even it it had begun work on the
codes the Arst day, could not have given
those balky volumes the consideration they
requioe in the saity days of the restn sos
sion, and looked after other and ne eary
business at the same time. The pro sod
extra session of thirty days, now the i it
members are beglnning to learn the ways of
legislation, would give them time to prop.
erly dimest the tomes, if there was nothing
else to do. An extra asession, it is estrl
mated, will cost about $26,000.
THE HUNt ri.
The 1Bill Lonating thie State University at
Mllssnula Favorably Reeommended.
The senate held two sessions yesterday,
anrd ns a ,esult one of the educational in
stitution bills, that bloating the state nnl.
versit. at Missoula, went through the com
mittee of the whole. It was at the afternoon
seasion that the university bill came n , in
committee of the whole, with Menator
Hatch in the chair. The bill was r ad by
seotions, and there was no objection until
the twelfth section was reachý'd. This
'onsted the university at Missouln.
Senator Gibson offered an amendment pro
viding that it be located at Missonin it tihe
Oltizens of that city would donate 100 acres
of 1 nt for a sit, and give $40,000 as an en
dowment. The Cascade senator said
he offered the amendment in the
interest of the state of Montana. "It in
not," said the senator, "an unusual thting
in locuting such Institations to put such a
condition as I propose in the bill loanting
them. For two years Missoula has been
t 'ing to get tire univesity. I believe
there are gentlemen here who sae morre
anxious to have the university located at
ialssoula than they are to advance tit
oapes of higher education. There are other
cities in the state equally as advantageous
in every resieot as Missoula that will
gardly give to lhave such an institution lo
cati:d in their midst all I propose in the
amendment I have offered. This idea of
locating the state tniversity at one plaoe,
the school of mines at another, the agri
cultural college at another, and the norm,aI
school at another, is not in the interest of
hliherr education, bit in the interest of
these several cities." 'I he senator then
quoted from the report of the bureau of ed
cation at Washingtou statistics to show
that in the states of Colorado, A:
heanas. Nevard,, Texas. Illinois, In
diana, Olhio, Maryland, Pennsylvania,
Marine and Massachusetts donations of land
and endowments of money had been made
a condition precedent to the location of
state institutions of learning. Continuing
Sonrator Gibson said: "1 want to say that
I believe that there are other cities equally
.s beautiful. equally as healthful and
quall, as advarrntareously located as Mis
Sit' t it are willing to n-ce' t the amsud
ment I have offered and take the state
urv.errrty. I Wil r.o fit.tear and say fo:
he city of Great Falls that if you will lo
eats there the combined educational insti
tutions the citizens of that city will donate
120 icrns of land within two miles of the
city limits and aive an endowment of $100,
000 and are p epa ed to give bonds ta oa. ry
out this agreement. I have now in my
possession Ippers that will satisfy any seu
,tor that the agreement wi I be kept on the
part of the citizens of that city."
:-enator Matte, epeakinr in behalf of his
motion to inlefinitely Iostpone coneiderr
tron of Mr. Gibson's amendment, said: "I
Iam ot surp ised ,t the itosition taken by
the senator from Cascade. I regret, how
ever, that he has pursued a meroenary
course in regard to the location of the state
i.stitutione. This legislature has no right
to eel, to the highest bidder the education
al institutions of the state. 1 submit that
it is the duty of the legislature to locate
these institutions on the merits of the
towns of the state. I am he e to offer
.iissounl as the plase offerinv the beast in
ucemrnte for the location of the state
'rniv," itay. If it is a quertion of sale, let
Bozeman, UutteandHelena have tihe chance
to vid. The university should be located
whio e the conditions are fitted to it; the
agricultural college should be located in the
ueit an.rioultural section; the school of
mines in the greatest mining district in the
it: :e. We have no right to barter our votes
" ea to the h ghest bidder.
"I am opposed," continued Mr. Matts,
"to lbar rinu, off the institutions of the
state. I am ran y to dis, use se:rergatiuon

Senator Foleom also spoke on the Rmend
ment, s inag: 'I did not ex actr take
.ny u rt in toe discussion on consolulation
or aegrecugation of the elate Institutuion. I
have given the snbject careful consi ,eration

u, l.os' Great Falls offers $100;0)0; some
,irt hl town may go tier one better, and maoe
it $20~0.000. I am in favor of the amrend
er nt."
.enator Goddad opposed the amend
ment, saying it was not his parl one to die
cese a gr.gation or Consolldatiolt at this
L tun, tut that he was op, tsed to the awmend
ment becaust' it simply leaves the location
f. toe nuive aity to the highest bidder. "1
d nt," he i outinllu d, "in any way ques
tion the sincerity of the proposition milads
iy thb. gentlemaus fronm Cuscade, but 1 am
or rineed at the gentlemsn mnak ng such a
roposition. I have a.ways understood he
was in favor of consolodation. but he has
lade a proposition looking to the sale of
hin institution to the highest biduer."
enateo Gibson cloued the debate on the
:men mwent for his ci a of thei qu~stion,
avying he did not see any objection to
iliugina out the ted flag onu this pr,)posi
ton. "When you say," he couonuded,
"that tlissou a is the only pl:be in the
state fri the university, 1 beg to dlffe with
the gerntetrmtn. Grealt F I a is just as good
a location; liozeman is ns good, and lHelena
Sa grand townt for it. Inumany ways she i
far ahead of other citties in the state and
owtug to her c-untral location offers many
idvnta t as. If Hilena should otter $2O,
00() tas an endowLnit.t for the lotntiol of
ýise sate institutitos I would throw up my
hio.s a nd sany gvie them to her."
After a nuiotht short talk by Matte the
Inendru nt was put to. a vote and the
motion to inlefinitely pouspone was carriel.
T'hen the I misoula senator moved that
when the committee rise it report the bill
tack with the recommenndation that it do
pines. (Gilson egain led the forces in favor

motives of utility and economy, of locatinig

The Oasoade senator then red extrants
from letters and other documents f am
leading ednaotors of Amerni a in favor of
consolidation, olosing with i st ong ping
for the senate to take that view of the sub
jeat.
lenator Hoffman replied, artoing in favor
of segregation. 1ie said: "I claim that
the United Btates government madie the
appropriation for schools for the different
states for the benefit of tile ndnustrial
c'asrnes--fo the sons of farm a ne Uni tite

Senator Mcllrrnott said he was surprise 1l
tol hear the senator from Cascade eit, lnitte
wae not a fit place for the school of mines.
"If it is located the i," he said, "I bellirve
it will soon be self.asustitring. l. ocate It

and sons of mliners who would ittind it
there, will, tartier thanl to ts such a udis
tance within the state, attend somnae school

favor of segregation."
Seinator Matte, oncluded the diaoussion,
talking for ani hour and ten rumiutes. lie
satid: "I concede that the lecnaito fro,m Ce.

taus fas lost by her faillue to looIt tn thrse

aral government." The senator
then read an editorial from an
Great Falls pa; or attirciine the ,ahaRn-
pions of segregation, and on the conclusion
of the reandng said: "We alre here to make
a fair fight for the university and for seg'e
gation. In this pamphlet the members of
tihe State Teachers association have been
guilty of trickery and chicanery. I have
been trying for a week or more to get a
letter they received from ex-President Bas
coin of the Utiversity of W sconsin, but
which tirhy would not publish in this I am
phlet. President ]lascom was once my in
atructor and I wrote him for hie opinion.
Yesterday 1 eoeived his reply, and I take
it that it contains the same views as tloes
the suppressed letter. He is in favor of
consolidation on certain lines and under
ca tarn aircumatances." The senator then
lead Mr. JBrecom's letter, and con
cluded his address with an earnest plea
for the location of the agricultural college
at Boze-man or Miles City, the school of
mines at Butte and the university at Mis
souls.
Chairman Hatch then put the motion to
report the bill favorably. Ind it carried.
and at 1:45 the committee rose and the
senate adjourned.
At the morning session Senator Power
introduced a bill to require railroad cot
porations, when they fence their right of
way, or when they have already fenced it.
to leave or make certain openings therein.
The openings ire to be not less th n

The provisions of the bill are ounly to refer
