Humber offered a concurrent resolution
for an adjournment sine die On the 18th oi
February.
DeWolfe said that the house had only en-
tered on the threshold of its dutie, and the &C.
ton proposed seemed to him premature
Congress authorized an extension Of the ses,
sion from forty to sixty days.
Blake said that the law wsuld not apply tc
this session unless it contained a final clause
to that effect. He was satisfied that the neces.
sary work of the session could be performed
in forty days, and he was willing to werk day
and night to that end.
Corbly moved the previous question. II
was not ordered. =.
Cullen hoped the resolution would not
pass. The territory required legislation in
many respects, and there is nothing more to
be d~eplored than hasty legislation. They
should look more to the quality than to the
quantity of their work. New conditions are
arising. Two railroads have entered upon
our soil, our population is growing, and cor
responding duties are visited upon the legis-
lature He had no doubt that the law ap-
piled to the present session.
Beach thought it was premature to fix a day
at this time. He moved to postpone the con-
sideration of the resolution to the 31st of
January. The motion did not receive a sec
ond.
Sedman briefly supported the resolution.
Good progress has been made, and he saw NO
obstacle to the completion of the business in
forty days.
Blake said the executive in his message
could only find fifteen topics calling for legis-
latisn. His (the speaker's) observation had
been that the less legislation they had the
better.
Cullen was glad that Blake and the COVER
nor were again in harmony, but feared the
latter had overlooked some measures of need
ed legislation.
Humber said they could finish as readily in
10 as in so or 60 days. The fact that no ap-
preparation had been made for longer sessions
than 40 days was a potent consideration in
support of the resolution.
DeWolf asserted the idea that the action of
the legislature was circumscribed by the gov
ernor's message the failure of an appropria-
ton for the additional 20 days, had no weight
with him if there was any work to be done.
The vote on the resolution was:
Ayes-Blake Glenn, Corbly, Eastman, Han
ley, Humber, Kennerly, Pardee, Sedman,
Wilson and Mr.. Speaker, II.
~Noes-Beach, Bell, Cullen, Davis, DeWolf,
Harrington, Houser, Parchen, Powers, Rodg-
ers, Stedman, Chambers and Garlock, 10.
The resolution was lost.
Bills introduced as follows:
By Stedman, a bill for AZ SCI to amend the
act for the preservation of game. Bill with
drawn for correction.
By Donnelly, H B No IA, bill for an act to
provide for funding the outstanding indebted
ness of Choteau county; referred to committee
on printing and ordered printed.
H B No 3, to establish rate of interest on
territorial and county warrants come up as
special order.
Cullen moved it be placed on general or
ders to be considered in committee of the
whole; adopted. Adjourned.
