Senate in substituting the minority report for
the majority report.
ca motion CT Mr.. D1SeLEr, the House vo:-
ed to non concur
The majority report was then accepted.
and the bill, Gan act amendatory Of chap. CO
Of the gu bile laws OF -, and to chap. 81 Of
the revised statutes relating to Intoxicating
liquors. read three times, under suspension
of the rules.
Mr.. LosISa Of Yarmouth spoke in favor OF
striking "cider. from the law.
Mr.. VINroS moved to amend the bilI, by
striking out all after the enacting clause and
insert the following: "sections2 and 3. OF
chap. GO CT the public laws of 70 are hereby
repealed, and, sec. 25, Of chap. q Of the re-
vised statutes is hereby revived" If this was
adopted, he said il simply repealed the act OF
last year in regard TO cider, and put It back
where it stood in tile revised statutes, sec. %,
OF chap. n, which contains all Of our prohib
tory law; then thenuisance act would be LETT
to apply to cider tippling shops.
M. MOWER spoke in favor c: the amend
ment.
Mr.. TREAT favored the adoption of the
amendment.
Mr.. PEAKS opposed.
Mr.. BRoCKwAy favored
Mr.. DINGLEY said great care should be exer-
cised in legisating on this subject of cider. 1t
is no use to go farther than the average public
sentiment will allow. He thought that senti-
ment would sustain law forbidding the sale
OF intoxicating cider to be drank on the prem
ises, and hence re nreferred the bill reported
by tie majority, which simply prohibits cider
tippinG saaps, a.i alows the sale of cider
under any otler CIR camstanees. To be sure
the adoption cf tn. amendment would leave
the nuisance ari to be applied to cider tip
ping shons, bur thst act could only be used
b. lliicr nj ia the Supreme Court, while
the prolibitory law could be used at any time
by complaint betG7r'a msgistra:e. The ma
iority Bit, would h. more effective to suppress
such places Than the proposition contained in
the amendment. sir. Dingley spoke further.
