November, 1892
Noble Marsden moved that the
bill be referred to a committee. If
the salaries were paid in accord with
the old exorbitant rates it would not
be in consonance with the present
condition of the finances of the
country. A committee could appor-
ton the amounts in accord with the
present Appropriation Bill.

which much time had been spent t,
obtain.
Rep. Iosepa favored the idea o
paying according to the old rates
The new Appropriation Bill was no

make it law. Simplest and easies
way was to pay III accord with ole

tempt to assist the employees. Tn
