people of Aurora, that tbe bill did not
propose to make that town the county
seat. Mr. Morton said when Mr. Cal
loway came before the committee he did
not state that he favored the bill. He
thought Mr.. Galloway had reflected on
the committee. It was understood that
he chairman Of that committee would
state that tle sense Of the committee
was against lie n..,. Mr.. Scott called
the previous Oue~i-2 aud under that
order the House voled on the bill, third
reading. The vote was ayes 81, noes IS.
The Public Printing.
Mr, Prltchard's resolution in regard 70
the public printing was taken up. 1t
provides for letting it to the lowest bid
der. Mr.. Henry said the Democratic House
had discussed this matter and had acted
on 1t. De was and had always been op-
posed to letting the printing to the lowest
bidder He moved TO table the resolution.
Mr.. Pri chard arose to question of per
soral privilege to reply to statement by
| Mr.. Henry that ne (Mr. Pritchard) had
said he would take care Of the Republi-
can side Of the House. He said the way
be meant to do this was to let the print
ing out to the lowest bidder, because the
State Printer gets $4,000 year. Mr..
Henry. rising to a point of order, said
Mr.. Pritchard was not speaking to
a question of personal privilege.
The Speaker ruled Mr.. Pritchard's S
remarks as not proper after he
had risen to question of
personal privilege. Mr.. Henry moved
to table the resolution. The motion
prevailed. Mr.. Pritchard moved to re-
consider the vote by which the resolu-
ton was tabled and on this tried to get
the floor. Mr.. McGill moved to table
Mr.. Pritchard's resolution. This motion
prevailed
Mr.. Pritchard has probably forgot,
ten that the Democrats have reduced
the price per thousand ems Of all State
printing just half what the Republicans
paid for the same work His statement
as to the amount the State Printer re-
ceives is not correct, and is gross ex.
aggeration Of the facts. He was doubt
less misled by the incorrect statements
which have appeared in certain papers,
