quire the Governor to furnish copies,
to both the Senate and House, of in
structions issued by him to registrars
which upon being reported by the
clerks would give all the information
necessary.
Mr.. Ferguson, of Cabell, said he did
not want the House to take any course
which might indicate that they were
afraid to have this Information furn-
ished. The Governor was not author
ized by law to give instructions to reg
istrars, and he wanted these to come
out SO that all might see that there was
nothing wrong inthem. he then offer
ed a substitute which provided that the
Governor should furnish to the Public
Printer a copy of all llinstructions issned
by him to registrars, to be printed and
distributed as bills are printed and dis
tributed.
The question was upou the adoption
of this substitute, which was placed
