bodying the terms of the award, was
adopted in the House by a vote of so to

members ousted by the award, said he
had the satisfaction, in giving up his seat,
to know that his old master, who had al
ways been just and kind. would take it.
This was an honor which did not occur
every day. The joint resolution recogniz-
ing the Kellogg government and pledging
the members to support the efforts of the
Governor in the line of reform and good
government, was adopted by the House by
vote of SO to Is.
The remainder of the unseated mem
bers expressed themselves in a like man
ner. The report of the committee was
adopted SO to Is.
The following resolution was adopted :
That said Assembly will not disturb the
