The point Of order was raised that this
ought to be referred to the Committee on
Resolutions, but the Chair held that It
could be read, which being done, Judge
Camden began, amid some confusion, 10
advocate his plan. Being interrupted, lie
said:
~ have the door, and propose to be
heard"
Senator B. W. Pfce-And We proposs
that you shall be heard. Laughter
Before the Judge had proceeded far he
vas sgain interrupted by Hon. Ii. S.
White, who IAiaed the point that there
was prior motion pending. The Judge
was ruled to have the door, aud after a
good deal OF ofconilBion, Criea Of Question"
and raising points ol order, he finlshed,
making the argument that this was the
promptest and beat way to accomplish the
object Of the convention.
BY general request the paper was again
reported by the Secretary, and then there
was good deal OF confusion again, and
finally debate was Gu. OF by demand
made by ]. NJ. HHgAn5 for the previous
question, which prevailed.
The substitute offered by Judge Cam.
den was then overwhelmingly rejected.
On motion Of Mayor ]. q. Alderson,
speeches were limited to Eve minutes
each.
The amended order OF the buAiness was
then adopted.
Senator George Price called for the ap.
pointment Ol the Committee on Perma.
nent Organization.
President Turner raised the point Of or.
der that the convention had not provided
how the different committees should be
appointed. The chair held that the prop.
osltion had been referred 10 the commit.
tee, but II was dnally decided, alter some
debate, that the committees wer0 all to be
appointed nov by the chair, except that
on Permanent Organization, which Was
TO be named by the delegations from the
respective Senatorial diB.ricta. To arrive
At this understanding, however, II was
necessary to reconsider; and pending this
motion Mr.. R. II. Smith, OF Psrkersburg.
moved 10 amend again, making all the
committees to conBist Of thirteen each,
one 10 be chosen by each Senatorial dis.
trict. Attorney General OAld veil moved
