The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1891-01-14

speaker ruled him put of order. This had
the effect of stirring up Mr.. Adler. he
said that he came here pledged Tor re-
trenchment, and he called upon the other
members who desired TO redeem their
pledges to oppose the passage OF the bill
at his time.
Mr.. Beas,ey said he would fully agree
with Messrs. Alder and Mccullough II II
were not for the fact that the treasury is
empty. After an appropriation had been
made some means would be devised TO
raise the money. Even If the bill passed
now it would probably take six weeks be-
fore members could draw a dollar. The
members could not support themselves
here without money. This was why he
would vote to pass the bill under h sus-
pension OF the rules. The appropriation
proposed was $4,000 less than two years
ago. In his opinion this amount would
not all be expended. There was nothing
in the bill that let down the bars OF the
treasury for extra pay of employees. He
felt confident that this house would not
allow any resolution to 90 through, carry
ing unnecessary expenses.
Mr.. Hess was also in favor of the bill
passing at this time. Mr.. Kelley OF De
kaib said that he was sorry TO see his
friends flap with the economy wing"
OF the house opposing the immediate pass
age of the bill. He was an original
stickler for rigid economy, and when the
proper time arrived the reform wing"
would flap for retrenchment, but there
was nothing in this bill before the house
upon which the friends, of the people
could divide.
Mr.. Curtis believed that this legislature
was elected TO consider every bin, and res
o%lutions proposed, before passing or adopt
ing them. Every bill should be properly
considered before passed, and not be rail
roaded through without giving the MEM
bers an opportunity TO consider 1t fully.
lie believed the enactment OF this bill be
fore the number of employees had been
determined upon would lead to e~xtrava-
gance. If this legislature was a reform
II it should start right and not leave any
lOopholes. for schemers and ~log-rollers
with resolutions to crowd through.
To suspend the rules it requires sixty
seven affirmative votes, but the motion 10
suspend the rules did not even receive a
