Hazard moved to amend by substituting Sat
| urday.
Munday said he thought it would be better to
wait day or two and see how fast the business
of the Legislature could be disposed of. The
resolution was premature, and he moved to lay
it on the table. Carried.
Gregory moved to reconsider the vote whereby
/ Assembly Bill No 800, relating to lawful fences,
was PASSED on the preceding day. He said the
bill was vicious one, us it reduced the lawful
hight of fences to four feet. ltscemed to be in
the interest of some one with IA small fam, who
| had a spite against stocknen Such a law would
drive sockmen out of tbs country, as a four-foot
fence would not keen out live stock; and the
! owner of the small farm could take up trespass-
! ing animals and fix the amount OF damage him
| self.
Munday Endorsed the view taken by Gregory,
| and said the effect of such law would be 10
deprive one class of citizens and property own
erS Of their property-if il could DC enforced
! without due process of law.
Britt defended the bill, and lule and TORY
| spoke against it,
The motion to reconsider failed to carry by the
| constitutional majority.

sum 10 meet the deficiency III the last appropri-
alton for the salary Of the Guardian OF Yosemite

! ing an additional 5000 Tor contingent fund

| the support of the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
,Yus read the third time and passed
| Assembly Bill No. 39s repeating The Senatorial
! AppoItionment Act, was next called mp.
Munday made an argument aallnst the bill,
! combating the giound taken by Parks on pre-
| yiOus discussion of its merits. He held that the
| repeal of the Act would not amount To a re-en-
! actmcnt of the old Law. and that the effect
| YOU be to leave the situation in confusion.
senator Parks took the floor and renewed his
| argument i'll support OF the repeal OF the Act of
| The last session.. The bill before the Assembly,
II passed would not take effect until July, 1856,
ard would prevent disorder at the next session
of the Legislature. That session will be very
important enc, as Il United States Senator is to
be elected, and twas desirable that there should
be no conflict between rival claimants 10 seats
IN that body. The Senators chosen at the last
election would most surely claim their constitu-
tioual right to hold for four years while the law
now in force would terminate their tenure in
two years, it provides for the election of an
entirely new Senate.
