Continued from first pagel
amendment TO the constitution taking ifol -
Legislature the power to pass other than genu, nd
laws This was defeated, not upon the grouuu
Of its improperly, but on the ground 'ha' 'A'
amendment WAS loosely drawn. .L.-a
Every yesr a number OF these olis l" Ia - |
names come before the Legislature, anu al
examination Of them shows that they CUM -
particular sections of the state, - 'na, 90ii
f;ons il annesrs have learned TO take al'ah
tage Of the general laws This resolution Is hot
anew measure 1t has been often auop'eu oe
fore. and the changing Of names anu passing oi
hills TO protect fish ponds have become a oy-"oru
in the mouths of the people. 1t Is not true that
these bills do not take time. Iney take 50 mueh
that the press of the State have again and again
discussed the question of whether power to pass
them ought not to be taken away from the Le-
ci,ature altogether. He could not see why a
man who is willing to make a child heir to all
his property should begrudge a few dollars 20
secure the chd's adoption. He believed the Sen
ate has the right to make its own rules and that
no other body has the right TO question those
rules He hoped the Senate would not rescind
its rule, but would adhere to the principle it has
adopted If another body has shown vacillation,
that is a reason why the Senate should not do
so.
Mr. Eddy stated that in 1865, in spite Of such
a rule, the Senate passed p bills to change
names. He did not believe in these foolish spas
modic attempts at reform, and hoped the rule
would be rescinde1.
Mr.. Heath was surprised to hear Senators
speak Of the rule as a reform and then attempt
to rescind it. If the Legislature goes on IL this
way, the size of the laws will be doubled.
Mr. Gardner understood the rule a. prescrib-
inr that committees shall inquire whether the pro
visions Of bills can legally be secured under the
statute laws They are not to inquire whether
in the case Of corporations capital can he con-
veniently obtained under general laws In the
bills Just before the Senate committees cannot
ascertain whether the expenses under the gener-
al laws viii be burdensome. lie believed in re
scinding the rule ami leaving all thefe cases TO
their individual merits
