from the committee and placed on third
reading and final passage.

regular asylum appropriation had been
raised $1,000 in the house, and that was
enough.
Mr.. KEARNEY said that it was neces.
sary to have the appropriation. Some PEG.
pie asserted that the Jamestown people
had plugged the we'll so as to get more
money, but this was not so. The water
supply had run out, and there must be
some other way of supplying it provided.

one raise his voice against the bill. The
asylum is a state institution. There are
q large number of helpless human beings

concerning the matter. The bill should be
passed at once.
