4 In regard to the pre- judgment of the matte
alluded to by the gentleman from Bangor
lMr. Humphrey he thought members ha
seen the proposed route of the road and wer
already qualified to judge. -
Mr.. HUMPHREY again spoke in opposite;
to the order. His city had important inter
ests to be attended to, and it wished prope
time to attend to them. He frankly acknowl
edged that it was the intention of the Bangor
| people to oppose the Dexter extension.
Mr.. .IEBRoKE briefly replied. He though
from the feeling of the House that it would b.
better to lay the order upon the table. If il
excitement he had cast one single reflection
upon the gentleman from Calais he did no
mean it,
Mr.. WILSON of Hallowell offered an amend.
ment directing the committee to report finally
as soon as consistent with the view of an ad-
Journnent on or about the 10th Of February.
Subsequently the amendment by consent
was withdrawn.
Mr.. PIKE replied to Messrs. Carleton and
Keegan.
Mr.. PERKINS of Poland hoped the motion
to postpone would not prevail. When he was
here last year he went for a short session and
got it; and went home and earned enough in
March to pay his bills here. He wanted to do
so this year.
Mr.. WOODBURY. suggested to the member
from Madawaska that if the session was pro-
longed that he (Mr. Kecgan) would hardly
get home in time to look after election matters
in the districts down there, and consequently
mi fot IF III Hn %
gentleman would withdraw his hostility to the
order.
Mr.. KEEGAN replied.
Mr.. RANDALL remarked that he noticed that
the Speaker invariably addressed his MIR.
Randalrs) friend, Mr.. keegan, as the gentle
man from Madawaska.' As the gentleman
from Madawaska takes care of all the cleo
tons through these French settlements up
there, or appears to, he proposed that he be
addressed as the gentleman from st. John
river hereafter.
Mr.. kEEGAN accepted the amendment.
Mr.. CARLETON withdrew his motion to in
definitely postpone.
Mr.. KING opposed postponement and advo-
! Gated the passage of the order at the present
