OBJECTION WAS TAKEN
by different parties, on the ground that tho
committees Ind done wrong III mentioning
nationalitiaB, aud tho national division Of tho
Offices WIS greatly objected to.
Aid. Dixon thought it was diagracefu1ly un-
Irish. Tho Irish people, who had too long been
yotera md nothing olso politically, ought by now
to be allowed to hold ofllco.
Mr. Taylor thought that tho Committee waB
charged with the duty Of submitting their work
savo that part Of it referring to nationa1ities be
accepted.
11r. Gassotte referred to tho difference Of
opinion amongst tho different nationalitieB, and
ho did not SEQ how tho Offices could be fair1y
divided without reference to nationnlitios. Ho
would stnnd by the report OF tho Committee.
The report, rs amended BY emitting tho ma
