Del VaIle-I move to reconsider the vote by
which Senate Bill No - Was refused a second
| reading Yesterday.
Cross said the matter had been fully consid
| cred and voted on yesterday, and the vote was
| rather a decisive one When once blll mad
been voted on he saw no reason why the senate
| should be bulldozed day after day into voting
on some matter they had previously voted on
| and determined. If We are TO accomplish any
thing this session. he said, when a bill is sal
down upon it ought to stay there. he had nc
particular interest in this matter, but he dld not
understand why certain Senators, when they
bring a bill into the Senate, keep bringing 1t up
and bringing it up until by sheer force OF per
sistence they get bills through which the Senate
does not want.
| Del Nalle-Ifthere is any bulldoZing II seems
to be on the part of the Senator from Nevada
because ! believe he is not the only senator who
| has rights. Every Senator has the same prlyi-
lege, and that privilege which he possesses, and
any other Senator on this tioor-to move to re
consider a vote on any given Propositions
| possessed also by the Senator who makes TINS
motion II is a question in which l am inter
| ested for the sake of my constituents, and ! de
sire TO exhaust all of the means in my power tC
| carry out their intentions. When that IS accom-
| pliShed shall cease any further action IN the
| matter. | have not spoken to a single Senator
| aside from lust merely to mention the matter
| not requesting their votes in any particular. ii
| is duty have to perform, and il is privilege
accorded TO me as IL senator ON TINS moor, ana IL
| is the desire of the constituents represent
Motion to reconsider put and lost.
Kellogg move thatwhen the Senate adjourn
| it adjourn until Monday at ]: 80 Carried.
