however, inc resolution might as
well be laid on the table, and the
House 90 ON and pass the bill, as
he was sure that the bill would
pass.
Noble Cornwell was not so SAN
guine about the bill passing. He
did not believe the bill would pass.
At first he was in favor of the bill,
but now he was against il. In 1878
bill was passed offering a subsidy
of $500 mile for railways.
The President said that discus
sion of what the resolution might
lead to was in order, but the hon.
Noble could not discuss the bill
now.
Noble Cornwell--I move to lay on
the table. A voice-That's made

MoloKai from the leper settlement.
He moved that the margin of S.
200 be appropriated for that pur-
pose.
Minister Peterson on behalf OF
the Board of Health promised that
the matter would be taken into con-
sideration, but he objected to bind
ing the margin to that locality, as ii
might be more necessary elsewhere.
If the schedule furnished by the
committee was binding on the Board,
there ought to be some change. II
would be impossible for the Board
to expend the appropriation exactly
as the committee or the House ap.

have respect and consideration for
such recommendations.
