olution before them before acting
TO Limit Appropriations.
Mr.. Lynn, of Hennepin, proposed the

following preamble and resolution:
Whereas, The tendency of former legisla-
lures of this state has been to spend more
money than the funds in the state treasury
would warrant, without anticipating future
revenues, and thereby establishing a prece-
dent ntincompatible with good business princi-
pies and dangerous to the financial interests
| of the state; it is therefore deemed advisable
| that all bills for the appropriation of money
| be referred to the committees on appropr1a-
| ton and ways and means, said committees TO
| act jointly in the consideration of all said
bills, and. further, that no bills for appropri-
| at1ons shall be considered or approved by
| said joint committee until all bills asking for
| appropriations out Of the state treasury have
| been introduced in this house, thereby en-
| ablng said committee to compare the whole
amount of money asked for with the amount
| available i'll the treasury, and return an In
| telligent recommendation as 10 the amount
| to be allowed on each application; therefore,
| be it
Resolved, That all bills asking for an ap-
| preparation of money from the revenue funds
| of this state be and the same are hereby re-
| qu1red to be introduced in this house on OF
| before the 10th day of March, 1891, and that
| no bills for appropriations of money out OF
! said funds be considered or approved by this
house if introduced after said date.
Mr.. Diment gave notice of debate, and
the resolution went over.
