and if carried out here, the fate of Mexico
would be that of Minnesota. Messrs.
Robertson, Sanborn, and Fox supported the
bill. 1t was introduced at the desire of the
laity-the Bishops now held the church
property in their own name, and the act
was intended to prevent them from alienat-
ing it from the church. In reply to the
remark of those opposed to the bill, that it
was owing to the fact that enormous
amounts of church property were vested in
church ecclesiastics, that the affairs of Mex
leo and the South American countries were
characterized by anarchy and civil war,
Col. Robertson demonstrated that this con-
dition was simply owing to the conflict of
races in these unhappy countries, and the
attempt to make the Negro and Indian,
socially and politically, the equal of the
white man.
The bill was again defeated by the fol-
lowing vote-yeas 81, nays 35:
