Bill. an sct to legaiizs the proceedings
b. " ich Lincoln Plantation was organized
came down from The Senate referred to the
judiciary committee and was referred in
concurrence by the House. Subsequently
Mr.. Porter of Bangor moved that the vote
whereby the House concurred with the
Senate in the reference Of this bill be
rsconsidered.
Mr.. porier-I object to doubling up this
sort OF business and passing from one com
Ini,,ee to another and recommitting, where
the matter can be disposed Of 2. once unless
reasons exist for such procedure. If any
member. Of the judiciary committee can
give any reasons why it shouId be recon-
United, should like to hear them.
Mr.. Herrick of Bethel This is a matter
which pertain, to my sec ion of
the Stae. II was originally introduced
BY me at the request OF she land agent aud
WAS referred at his suggestion to the com.
ui,tee on State lands and State roads A
fasorsb'e report was made, but after. il
came back into the House, or Senate, il
WAS held and the friends Of the bill con-
scented, and it was entirely satisfactory,
that the matter should be referred to the
committee on judiciary.
Mr.. Po,ter-I know this Legislature has
passed two or three such bills a. that and
it escaped the waehful supervision of thai
branch of the Judiciary committee in the
other body. Why this bill should be
singled out when other bills have had their
passage is Whist could not understand.
don't object, particularly, to this reference.
presume the Judiciary committee would
tell you that thu bill isn't worth q copper.
II you should ask their legal opinion. and
I think the mstser might just as we'll be
settled in this House a. 10 be recon nitted.
Unless the committee on the judiciary do
not propose to adjourn before the frs, day
Of May, think the House had better st
Tia il. although am 10. strenuous in the
mater.
The motion to reconsider was rejected
Other papers from the Senate disposed
Of in concurrence.
The following petitions, bills snd re-
solves were presented and referred to the
ssversl committees as follows. those of
pirate nature being introduced under sus-
pension of the rules:
