thought the bill ought to pass because
Mr.. Ralston said SO. (Laughter). He
preferred the voice of man swinging a

trades unions meeting nightly, make an
appeal here for the law. The law would
be blow to the industries of the State.
Mr.. Bruner asked to what industry the
law would be detriment? The other
day he (Mr. Morrison) objected to the
bill because the mines would fill with
water; now they offered to exempt mines
and hence the bill should pass.
Mr.. Crawford defended his position
in citing Mr.. Ralston as an authority.
ANY mans opinion in business was
worthy of consideration. RalstOn rep

had many employees; therefore his opln-

however, to exempting mines.

They come to town on Sunday, and II

Sunday, SO as to come to town on
business day.

and mills was an inconsistent PROPOSE

money. The law would, he believed,
be dead letter. The vote being taken
