"Mr. Speaker, a moment ago l intro
duced bill to authorize the faculty of
st. Michaers college to issue diploma
or teachers certificate to graduates of
their college the same as the other terri
torial educational institutions. The OBJ
ject of my bill is to place the college of
the Christian Brothers in this city on the
same footing with the other educational
institutions. Last night we passed c. B.
No. 20, for the creation and maintenance
of normal schools at Las Vegas and Silver
City. That bill authorizes said schools
as we'll as the other territorial educational
institutions to issue diplomas or teacher
certificates to graduates of their respect
i've institutions, and before that bill was
placed upon its passage myself and Mr..
Barela were about to present an amend
ment 80 as to include the college. Mr.. Fall
and other members of the council re-
quested us not to do it and to frame a
bill such as the one just introduced, as
surfing us that the same same would pass
the council at once. This did last night
and I now ask that bill be placed upon
its passage" y. ..

through its various readings and passed.
Mr.. Meyers moved that he be allowed
to withdraw the bill for the creation of

raised the point of order that the bill
could not be withdrawn if one member
objected.
The speaker however allowed the
motion, and two-thirds not voting in the
affirmative the withdrawal of the bill was
refused.
| Mr.. Meyers stated that the only object
was proper correction of the bill, as in
| its present shape it was exactly what
the people did not want.
Mr.. Read suggested that he might kill
it in that case.
Mr.. Meyers then called up H. B. No.
1877, to permit women to vote at school
elections, and on matters connected with
education.
Mr.. Meyers advocated the bill in a
short speech.
Mr.. Barela said that as a usual thing he
would be opposed to such radical changes;
but as he had LADY" sitting next him
he thought he would vote for this bill.
Mr.. Read said that women had a better
knowledge of educational matters, and
as for himself he was willing to give rep
resentation to all persons who paid taxes
and therefore in favor of universal suf-
frage for women.
Mr.. Hinkle moved to strike out the
words relating to public schools and
public education"
Mr.. Meyers moved its rejection as this
would allow ofwomen exercising the fran
chise as fully as men.
The house adjourned until 2 p. m. with
this amendment pending,
