would be no limit to such boundaries. He
could not consent to such unlimited power,
for it would do great injustice.
Mr.. BAKER favored the reconsideration
of the bill. He thought it desirable that
certain unplatted lands should be brought
into villages, because roads and alleys
could not be extended without such annex
| ton. Ifsuch extension could not take place
| the gro with of towns would be retarded
| He thought the old law inefficient, and de-
sired the present bill to be put in such shape
as would permit the enlargement OF the ter
ritory around towns, as part of the corpo-
| rate limits. i 100.
Mr.. LEE favored the reconsideration
He was opposed to the restriction ia the
bill providing that it shall require major
ty of the land owners in favor OF anneXa-
tion, before it can be done.
Mr.. BELLVILLE cited the fact that a
large amount of farm lands had been taken
within the city limits. that they might be
taxed for the benefit of the city, and with
| out the consent of the owners. He thought
| such was grave Justice to the land own
ers adjacent to such towns and cities. He
could not consent to such legislation.
| Mr.. ACKER desired the vote reconsider
| ed because lie did not think the bill met
the appreciation of the majority on this
| floor. .....-. .......-,-,,.... .t..-,
Mr.. RTTEZELL thought if the bill pass
| ed great Injustice would be done. If ma
iority could determine the matter, that ma
jority might force the minority into a cor
poration. He favored the old law on the
subject. ..
MIR SAVIOR desired the bill not to be
| reconsidered, because he feared 1T was the
object OF the majority to kill the bill or fil-
| libuster it over so that it could not become
| a law before next Monday. ~
| Mr.. DILWORTH thought that those
around the villages whose lands were hene-
fitted in consequence of their contiguous
ness thereto, ought to bear portion of the
taxes of such villages. lie cited an instance
! where q farm had been brought into a cor
norated yillage-the owner thereof sold it
far 5000 per acre. and now lots are worth
from $500 to $500 each. He could not see
that hat the party owning such land was in
inred by being brought into avillage.
Mr.. HILL, OF Defiance, demanded the
previous question. fsTr ta.. .,,- g..E ?
