Taylor moved that Senate Bill No 20l. 70 es-
tablish Branch Normal School, be passed tenn
porarily. Carried.
Assembly Bill No. l0i-To establish Branch
Normal school in Shasta county. Read second
time.
foster offered an amendment 10 the first sec
ton, by striking out county of Shasta and
inserting " northern portion of the State
Taylor said he desired to have the location
fixed, and claimed that Shasta county was the
most central point, there being seven counties
north of IFS north line. The aSsesSable property
had increased thirty per cent. in the year 1881
and it was still increasing fast as any county
in the State. II is exactly in the center of the
northern third of the State He thought the
argument used against locating the school in
only 4 bluff painted red Referring to Sena-
tor Cross remarks on the subject few days ago
he said: Sir, If there should be one upon the
floor of this Senate who by name instinct or
nature is so cross, and whose powers of oratory
are so Blended with satire. sarcasm and keen
sense OF the ridiculous, TO such degree that
he feels iiupeled to relieve his sour and
sordid nature of the accumulation OF the
putreseent biliousness and gall within him, by Il
harangue which gives healthy exercise to his
lungs, lntonatlons to his voice and pleasing sen
sations to his ears, it is 30 reason why we
should forget that we are the representatives, OF
the people. aud that we have duties and rcSpon-
sb;lities to iulhll, and thai we must act for the
bsnetit Of the whole people.

Commission to locate all public buildings. The
asylum at stockton. he thought, might have
been been better located, because the drainage
there is bad.
IangioId-I rise 20 a point of order. The Sen
ator is abusing Stockton, and that has nothing
70 do with the question.

that what was done in his case, he was ready
