copy. but on the suggestion of the
Speaker that the rules had not yet been
adopted. he withdrew his motion.
The rules were then considered section
by section.
The first fixes the time for beginninp
the sessions at $3.50 A. NJ until February
1st, adjournment to be taken at 1890 p. NJ
Alter that time recess 10 be taken till
1:30 p. NJ, unless otherwise ordered by
the Assembly.
The order of business is the same as
last session.
The rule for the Introduction of bills is
also very similar.
BRUSIE OBJECTS.
When the rule was read recommend
ing that when a bill was substituted for
another introduced by a committee, the
bill for which 1t was substituted was con-
sldered Withdrawn and lost its place on
the file, Brusie objected. He considered
1t an abrogation OF the rights OF members
TO have their bills considered by the AS
sem bly, and not have them removed from
the file.
After considerable discussion he moved
to amend by giving the member right
to object to the withdrawal of his bill and
to retain it on file.
Pendleton called for the ayes and noes
on the amendment, and it was adopted
by a vote of 53 ayes to 2l noes.
Pendleton gave notice OF motion to re-
consider it's adoption
Powers moved to amend by inserting
that in case of substitution the numbers
of the bills to be displaced TO be given by
the committee dispIacing them. The
amendment was adopted.
Reld moved to refer the section back
to the committee to be reported on again,
but his motion was lost.
The section as amended was adopted,
Wade giving notice of motion for recon
Slderation.
The section providing that when SEN
ate bllI identical III language with an AS
sembIy bill should be substituted for the
latter was adopted after little discussion.
MADE A SPECIAL ORDER.
Brusie said that it was evident that
members could not know what changes
have been made from former rules, and
he therefore moved that further consider
| alton OF them be made a special order for
to-day just after the reading of the Jour-
nal, and the State Printer be instructed to
have them printed and laid on each mem-
ber's desk.
The motion was carried, 81 ayes to SO
noes.

CHEAPER BREAD.
Los Angeles Times I

The agitation for cheaper bread goes
on IN the East and is sure TO win in the
end. The price of wheat is so low that il
pays the farmer better TO feed it to horS
than 10 sell 1t for human ConsumptIon.
and 1t IS estimated that 100, 100000 bushels
VIII be used TO 1atten hogs III the United
States during the present year. Some-
where between the wheaI-grower aud the
consumer there is a wide margin of ex-
tortion. This is as true in the West as in
the East. Bread is one OF The most inn
portant articles of diet, and ought to ba
sold for not more than one-haIf of the
prevailing prices. Let US have reform in
CalltornIa In this matter Here III Los
Angeles, as we are informed, where flour
IS selling ut from S3 - to S3 So per barrel.
as much as Sl2 to Sl4 worth OF bread is
made out of single barrel. This is an
Inordlnate profit. Why should not the
size Of the loaf be regulated by ordi-
nance, and the price OF the loaf cut in
two?
