the compiled laws of 1887. 1t was passed
| without debate.
Next was No. 154, providing tor the cree
ton OF warehouses on railroad rights of
way or contiguous thereto.
MIR. FAY asked for an explanation of the
bill. He didn't expect to vote against it,
but he believed the railroads should have
as fair treatment as any other interest.
Mr.. MCCULLOCH was favorable to the
bill. He believed that if such a law had
been passed ten years ago the farmers
would now nave a free and open market.
