rise and report progress.
Mr.. McMullen said he was getting tired
of seeing a bill made special order and
then having it set without anything being
done. This bill had certainly been long
enough before the house to be we'll con-
sidered. 1t was rather queer looking now
that this bill should be referred back to
committee.

he wanted the bill referred was that he
thought the bill should be amended. II

H. B. No. 110-By Mr. Meyers, to pre-

reasonably low, was read third time.
On motion of Mr.. Hopewell the rules
were suspended and the finance commit
tee reported that the auditors report
should be printed, 500 copies to be En-
glish and 200 in Spanish. The reason for
printing 500 is that it is usual
for the auditor to exchange with
the auditors and treasurers throughout
the United States. The 200 copies in
Spanish would be sufficient, as they
would not be sent out of the territory.
The committe also reported bill making
a special appropriation to defray the ex,
penses of this printing.

frmative.
