tans q section which socks to correct tho

bill ut tho morning session Senator Hunter
said that tho only oasis in New York and
Brooklyn was Senator Aspinall Of the Third
district. who alone OF the city Senators was
opposed to FREQ rum.
Senator McCarren OF Brooklyn asked II 1t
was proper for one Senator to call another
Senator IN oasis.
Senator Mcmahon. who was In the chair.
said he did not think 1t ut all Parliamentary
for ono Senator to refer on the floor to another
Senator as an oasis and he felt confident that
no circumstances had arisen to justify such
language
Senator Hunter was not sure whether Sem
ator McCarren's point OF order was intended
seriously or not. bur since what he said seemed
to hurt Senator Aspinalls feelings no with
drcw his reference to the Senator rs an oasis.

Senate passed tho bill to reduce tho number
of Inspectors OF Election in New York city to
three to conform with the law in tho rest OF

Boards have four inspectors. two Republicans
and two Democrats while elsewhere in the
State there are only three inspectors. two OF
tile majority party and one Of tho minority
party. The result Of the present New York law
has been that 1T several elections In which tho
Ta5 Samdidates Were elected

inspectors being Republicans or municipal
