It would be hard to state what bills
were of the most importance which
were introduced at the session," said
J. H. Humphries of Atoka last night.
"In my opinion there have been no
good measures passed and all that
have been passev! either create offices
or raise salaries for those already
created.
"Practically every measure so far is

or abridges the rights and privileges of
certain classes.

Until it was amended to death. Its

face. The people all over the sUite are
demanding that the birds and game in
the state be protected; the hill is largely
copied from Nebraska, Illinois and a few
other states that have good game laws.
This legislature is the most expansive of

have passed are of Interest only to the
Immediate locality where they apply.
"Many of the best blls have been
