claim and that is, that he has the money to build

other cars to run on its tracks, but the promoters
OF that bill cover so many streets that they really

When we wanted to hear the names of the other
side we only received brilliant flashes of silence.
The objection that he had was to the bill, and
when Representative Dole saws that this section
Sec p should not be in he, for the first time since
have known him, displays a deplorable want of
knowledge in the matter of railroad building.
(heads Section p The absence of this Section in
the wilson bill was he believed the reason of its
defeat two years AGO. Nor was this the only point
| why the Wilson bill is not good bill Thus it is
provided in that bill in fact gives the right
troll every street which they run. The obiec-
ton made by the Hon. G. II. Bishop is not tenable.
II road is built 70 the Pail, it must be double
| track. Again it gives the power to the Minister
of the Interior whether this Company lay single
| or double track, also in regard to laying in the

| be conducted properly.
President Rhodes put the motion to refer to
