| Mr. Ewing of the Committee on Mileage. in
troduced resolution-out of order-that the
temporary officers and attaches appointed by
! Clerk Ryan be requested TO continue in their
respective positions for full week, at per
diem amounting to 81 isl.
Mr.. Storxe moved that the resolution be made
a s5ecial order for Monday. Immediately fol
lowing the reading of The Journal. Lest.
Mr.. Mathews thought there was no necessity
| for debating the resolution. The only trouble
was with the controller, who wanted to CRAFTY
his cheese-paring propensities on every possible
| occasion. Tie Controller evidently was deter
mined to detain the temporary attaches Tor q
| full week.
| Mr. Ostrom thought the resolution should be
referred to The Committee on Attaches and En-
ployes.
The Speaker said the point was not well taken
! Motion lost
! Mr. Storhe called for 4 second reading which
: was had.
| Mr.. Storke said that so far as the resolution
| applied to those few temporary attaches who
came back at the beginning of the new session.
| as required of them by law, he had no objec-
ton. Bet the resolution went much further
than his conscience would allow him to go.
Mr.. Mathews asked if the report was not al
ready adopted, two days ago. He thought Mr.
storke's conscience WAS Little tardy in this
matter.
! On motion of Mr. Edwards, the hour of recess
was extended twenty minutes.
Mr.. Storke called for the ayes and noes on the
resolution, which was adopted by a vote Of 90
| to IA.
Mr.: Matthews introduced resolution provid-
1 ing that each member OF the Assembly he al
| lowed S25 for contingent expenses. Adopted
| Mr.. Young asked permission to introduce a
reso ution out of order. He would begin by
stating that the members of this House have
some rights which the obstreperous clerks of
| the Senate should be bound to respect. They
should be taught that they must not interrupt
| speakers on the floor of the House, as had been
| done this morning by clerk who broke into
| the Assembly like wild steer, brandishing
aloft message from the Senate He would like
| to know what kind of hash those Senate clerks
| wrestled with to make the m so frisky.
Mr.. Storke thought it was not necessary to
| adopt resolution such Mr.. Young proposed.
| He thought gentle minder was all that was
| necessary to prevent future bad breaks by fresh
Senate clerks.
| Mr.. Hyde offered a resolution directing the
sergeant Arms OF The Assembly not 10 admit
| messengers from the Senate while members had
| the floor.
| Mr.. Dibble added an amendment leaving the
| question of admission of messengers to the dis
erection of the Speaker. Adopted.
| The Committee on Mileage presented a report
| recommending allowances amounting to 1852.
Mr.. Storke wants d to know why the Oakland
members got more mileage than those from
\ san Francisco.
| On motion of Mr.. Briefly the hour of recess
| was extended ten minutes
Mr.. McVay said the distance from Crescent
| City was 364 miles, and he lived three miles
| further on.
| Mr.. Tully said the mileage of the Sacramento
| Assemblymen ought to be increased to an
amount large enough to enable them to get a
| good cigar
| Mr.. Coombs moved that the report of the COM
mittee be made special order for Monday.
| Mr.. Hyde said the codes fixed the amounts of
| mileage. The Controller had already drawn
! his warrants for them. Ali that remained now
| for the House to do was to order them paid.
Mr.. Coombs withdrew his motion.
Mr. McVey was allowed for 7SS miles instead
| of go
Mr.. Brickwedel said the San Francisco mem
| bers did not receive much mileage as they
| were entitled TO.
| AS the discussion promised to become inter
| minable, a vote was demanded and the report
| adopted.
| At o'clock the Assembly adjourned until 2
| O'Clock P. NJ next Monday.
