Senate documents Nos 102, 105, los and
l1S, resolves in favor OF, respectively,
Calais, Monmouth, Cherryficld Aca-
denies and Parsonsield Seminary, were
taken from the table
Mr. Hovey: On looking over these re-
solves the idea suggested itself to me
that there should bo some restriction,
some limitation upon these appropria

that the resolves In 1891 have certain re
strictions attached which, it seems to
me. are in harmony with the policy of the
State relating to appropriations for these
institutions. After comforting with the
committee on education | offer Senate
amendment A to each of these resolves.
