IoPEKA, February At is evident now
to every member, what old ones knsw at the
opening of the session, that all attempts to
suspend rules to allow bill on the calendar
or to put bills on special order results in
great delay of business and generally delays
the very bills intended to be advanced.
1t IS lesson that new members always have
to learn.
The house having amended the university
appropriation bill, so as not to allow the re-
gents any pay except their actual expenses,
the question of concurrence in this amend
ment came up and caused considerable de-
bate. 1t was not coaclrred in snd went
back to the house. The who forenoon was
spent in routine business.
