"n behalf of III" amendment, said he
thought the radical local option peo-
pie and the liquor interests had
struck hands.
Lewis came back at this and said
if it was told ir Seattle that lac hud
jo.nel that gang 1t would surprise
Them. But he believed that saloon
keepers wer men and the mistake
the temperance people make was to
class every man who sells liquor ~
a blackguard.
Dunbar disclaimed any intention
to personally reflect.
Ostrander argued aga nst the
amendment.

The Joint Resolution of the Coun
Gil, providing that the originals of
bills DO placed in the custody OF the
Secretary OF the Territory, was de
feated in the House.
Munday opposed the resolution on
the ground that it was wrong in
principle. He didn't want TO reflect
upon anybody, but that the bills that
passed, and the check upon them
the original, should not he in the
same bands. Besides, the House
had passed resolution giving the
Speaker charge of these bills. he
didn't care whether previous leglsla-
lures had established the precedent
or not; he still believed it was wrong
in principle
Manly and kinnear agreed in this
view Of it, and thought the House
would be going back upon its own
previous action to concur with the
Council
Dunbar, (Goodell in the Chain
stated that he, too, thought it wrong
the fact that he, as Speaker, had
been given charge of the originals
having nothing to do with is opinion.
Lewis dropped in hero in full ac-
cord. introduced the resolution
giving the original bills to the Speak
err" he said, because l heard that
there were certain persons, Just ar
rived from Portland, who had hab-
it:of taking these bills away, and /
wanted to know they were safe and
therefore urged this resolution at
once. The gentleman from King
has given us most notable reason
why they should not go to the Secre-
tary Of this Territory. 1t actually
places it in his power TO say what
the laws shall be. l say that would
be very dangerous, sir-too danger
Gus to think of. He has shown him
self SO oficious during this session
that 1 repeat it would be extremity
dangerous to place such power in
his hands"
Munday rose instantly as Lewis
sat down and stated that such were
not tho reasons he had moved the
indefinite postponement-he did not
wish to reflect upon anybody.
The resolution was indefinitely
postponed.
