FEEBLE MINDED
CHILDREN fiO TO il
ASVLl'M ANNEX
ENDORSES THE PRESIDENT'S POLICY
Senate Amends Bill Providing In-
stitution for Them and
Cuts Appropriation.
PLAN IS VIGOROUSLY
OPPOSED IN SENATE
Dally Express Austin Bureau.
AUSTIN, Tex., March 28.-—The Senate
heard petitions read this morning against
the 2-cent fare bill; against the Robert-
son insurance bill; for a strong anti-
gambling bill, and l'or the bill providing
for the teaching of agriculture in the
public schools.
Senator Glasscock called up the House
bill appropriating $o0,000 to establish an
institution for feeble minded and deaf,
dumb and blind.
Senator Stone offered an amendment
providing that the institution shall be
established in connection witli the State
Lunatic Asylum, instead of a separate
institution. ;i<< said it was a question
of economy and with the best of results,
as Superintendent Worsham knew hew
to use the boys and only a small building
would be needed, not using nearly all of
the $50,000, while that sum would not be
near enough co create a new plant and
institution.
Senator Glasscock opposed the amend-
ment, insisting on a separate institution.
Senator Harbison was for the bill and
against the amendment.
Senator Looney spoke in support of the
amendment, objecting t.o a new asylum,
etc. He thought few parents would give
up their afflicted children, and an an-
nex to the asylum would be sufficient
and the equal of a separate institution.
Senator Willacy agreed with Senator
Looney, thinking few parents would give
up their afflicted children. He said the
affection of parents for afflicted chil-
dren was too great to permit them being
placed in an asylum.
Senator Glasscock made a strong plea
for the care and education of feeble-
minded children, and urged the necessity
therefor.
Without taking a vote the Senate re-
cessed until 2:30 p. m.
Afternoon Session.
Senators Grinnan and Brachfield of-
fered a resolution recalling the mine
inspectors bill from the Committee on
Mining and refer it to the Committee
on Labor.
Senator Stone opposed the resolution.
Senator Barrett favored the resolution,
insisting that the bill should be reported
and given consideration. ^
Senator Brachfield supported his reso-
lution, saying the action of four men
will prevent the other twenty-seven
members of the Senate from having an
opportunity to consider the measure.
Senator Chambers—Is it not a fact that
the committee was tied and another
member added after that fact was dis
covered ?
Senator Brachfield—I am not prepared
to say as to the last, except that he
knew another member had been added.
Senator Grinnan said he joined in the
resolution because part of his district
includes mines. He declared the action
of the committee unprecedented, and
that the Constitution requires commit-
tees to report bills for consideration by
the main body.
Senator Watson told of the committee
hearings and how the author of the bill
and labor union representatives refused
to consent to an amendment exempting
ligni.te mines from the bill, saying that
they preferred its death to that exeep
Hon. and that the committee* then post-
poned it to May 1, though it"would have
reported the bill favorably if the lignite
exemption had been agreed to. He
thought the adoption of the resolution
would bo a slap and an "insult" to the
committee.
Senator Green supported the resolution,
believing that the bill should be recalled
and the question settled on the floor of
the Senate.
Senator Hudspeth objected to the res-
olution and made an argument that the
lignite mines should not be included in
the bill.
Senator Smith then offered a substi-
tute, instructing the Mining Committee
to report the bill immediately.
Senator Brachfield said the substitute
was acceptable.
Senator Stone said he had been the
member added to the committee, but
without his knowledge or consent. Ho
said that the bill would destroy a great
industry- lignite mining—and ruin good
men who have money tied up in those
mines.
Senator Brachfield denied that any re-
flection was intended, saying his effort
was to get the bill before the Senate for
consideration.
Senator Veale said he was chairman of
the Mining Committee, and on the roll
call to postpone the bill to May 1 he
voted "No," which would have made the
total a "tie," and defeat the motion, but
other members of, the committee told
him he had no right to vote unless there
was a tie without his vote. He asked
the chair if a committee chairman could
vote.
Lieutenant Governor Davidson said
certainly a chairman of a standing com-
mittee had a right to vote in his com-
mittee whenever lie saw fit, and without
a tie vote; that it was different from
the position of the presiding officer of
the Senate.
Senator Harper defended Mr. Stone
and substantiated the explanation of his
addition to the committee.
Senator Cunningham declared his vote
would not be a reflection, but an effort
to get light.
The substitute calling for an immediate
report was then adopted by the follow-
ing vote:
Yeas—Barrett, Brachfield, Chambers
Cunningham, Glasscock, Green, Griggs'
Grinnan, Holsey, Hudspeth, Looney'
Masterson, Mayfield, Meachum, Paulus'
Senter, Skinner, Smith, Stokes, Terrell'
20.
Nays—Faust, Harper, Murray. Stone.
Watson, Willacy, (3.
Present and not voting—Veale.
After tiie final adoption Senator Veale,
chairman of the committee on mining]
gave notice of its meeting immediately
upon adjournment and the chair de-
peated the call.
The Senate then resumed considera-
tion of the feeble minded children's bill
which was under adjournment with Sen-
ator Stone's amendment pending to
make the institution an annex to the
State insane Asylum in this city and
under its administration. Without fur-
ther discussion the amendment was
adopted.
Senator Willacy offered an amendment
to reduce the appropriation from $.V>,000
for each of the two years, to a total of
$25,000 and changed the bill to conform
to the Stone amendment, that is, that
the feeble minded go to an annex to
be provided at the State Jnsane Asylum,
Austin.
The Willacy amendment was adopted
15 to 11. .This leaves the bill appropriat-
ing $25,000 for a building at the State in-
sane Asylum for the care of the feeble
minded. The bill, as amended, was
passed finally under a suspension of the
rules.
A House resolution recalling the one
board medical bill from the Governor
for correction, was adopted.
The Senate finally passed House bill
placing Montgomery County in the fish
and game law, also a road law for
Bell County and the House bill requir-
in confessions in criminal cases to be in
writing and made before an examining
court and must be voluntary.
Senator Veale secured the final pas-
sage of the House bill amending the act
incorporating the Childress Independent
School District.
Recess until S p. m.
Night Session.
An invitation from the faculty and
students of the University to the Senate
to attend the Bryan speaking at the
University at noon tomorrow was ac-
cented.
Senator Stone secured the final pas-
sage of his bill authorizing cities and
towns to regulate the ringing of bells
and blowing of whistles in the corpo-
rate limits thereof.
Senator Terrell called up his omni-
bus tax assessment bill, seeking to re-
quire the rendition of all taxable prop-
erty, and at its full value, under oath.
Senator Hopper offered an amend-
ment, a. substitute for the entire bill,,
being the bill drawn by Senators Mur-
ray, Stone and Veale. it is directed to-
ward the County Commissioners as
boards of equalizations requiring them
to place all property on the rolls and
assess it, according to law, and requires
the Commissioners to keep a record
showing how each voted.
Senator Terrell made an argument in
support of his bill, abusing the tax
dodgers and demanding better valua-
tion in the rich land counties. He
said it was easy and soft to jump on
the corporations and tax them to the
limit, but a bill to make others do their
duty provokes opposition.
Senator Veale spoke on the Inequality
of assessments, and the careless and
loose way of assessing property.
After some further discussion by Sena-
tor Veale the Senate adjourned until
tomorrow and without acting on the bill
or amendment.
DIVORCE BILL PASSED.
Review of Provisions of Measure
Adopted by the House.
Daily Express Austin Bureau.
AUSTIN, Tex., March 28.—Smith's di-
vorce bill came over for consideration
today and amendments were offered by
Mr. Camp of Milam, which were adopted
and made a part of the Senate bill, and
thereafter Representative Cobbs of San
Antonio, sent up an amendment for the
whole bill in lie^i of all amendments
which was adopted.
The bill of Representative Cobbs, pro-
vides among other things, that where
divorces are granted, the court may
upon hearing, grant a full divorce to
the party entitled thereto and deny to
the other party in the wrong, the right
to remarry any other person foT a pe-
riod of twelve months after the final
decree of divorce.
Another most important and essential
provision is that granting alimony for
the maintenance of wife, care, custody
and maintenance of the children accord-
ing to the circumstances of the party
md the nature of the case should be
reasonable.
it also provides that, the court might
require that the defendant might give
security for the payment of alimony
allowed. With the further right of the
court to rescind, alter or change from
time to time the allowance of any ali-
mony and maintenance as may be
IDX'oper. \
It also provides in case of absolute
decree of divorce that the court in its
discretion could grant alimony in gross
from year to year, and where alimony
granted in divorces, the amount so
fixed could be special as a lien uoon
the property of the husband.
The essential purpose of this bill and
amendments is to protect the wife and
children from the misconduct of the hus-
band in abandoning his wife and chil-
dren.
