Mr.. Welty moved 70 strike ont forty cents

would be in coin, and had been no greater
when in currency.
Mr., Monroe hoped no amendmcn. would
be Offered, for the reason that he had no idea
that the bill would become a law.
Mr.. We!ty withdrew his motion.
Mr.. Eastman moved that the Committee
rise and recommend the passage Of the bill.
Mr.. Monroe moved that the recommenda-
ton De that it do not pass.
Mr.. Edwards said the only change the
B Ill made was the incorporation of the held
over system. by which majority of the
Board would understand county business.
ANY argument in favor of the Suprt me
Court or any other body being governed by
that system WAS equally applicable here.
The Board was very important one and by
this Bill it would not be composed entirely
of raw men.
Mr.. Monroe said he had been opposed to
the Bill ever since he had heard of it. The
a rgument of Mr.. Edwards had but made
his opposition stronger. He believed the
people should be entitled to say whether
should hold over-that is, be
reelected. In many cases where Commits
