One other Observation-Disclosures the
Territorial law Of 1867, b still In force, o.
whether It has been repealed by the law Of
last winter, In either ease the Legislature ID
to convene, when It does convene, on the
sssne day Of the month, viz. /: the first Non.
day In December. ...-
7hs law Of Congress Of March 1, 1870.
establishing biennial sessions, provides
"And A. ss;d Legis'ssiss Asse~blv (1srriss-
stsD At IL f,ss session after ase passage q
III Get sAau preside BY lsS for eos,yisg 0tis

for By the Territorial law of 1857, or 1858,
not even q IT, next regular session, but lat

There Is nothing to show that IN extrsordt'
mary session called BY the Governor would
not Be su@cient for this purpose. The IN.
guage Of the law makes no discrimination
between the character Of different sessions,
but merely provides that at the lIrst session
that shall IN feet be thereafter held tn Leg
islature shall provide for carrying the act
Of Congress into effect. '.'.'
Now suppose that tho Territorial INV Of
1871 providing for annual sessions 10 sin In

under Il this YER viii not, . has been
shown, prevent It from meeting under It on
