Courtesy to each other and the ex.

epposing Influences in the two houses,
but the latter conquered in the house
Saturday when the order of business
was SO changed as to take up third
nading of house bills before the selne
action on senate bills. The senate has
always PASSED its own bills first, and
members Of the house, through a mis-
hken, idea of courtesy to tho senate,
LAS done just the opposite. This has
usually resulted in proportionately
more senate than house bills becoming
laws. The proper theory is for each
Rouse to pass its own bills first and the
mason is very plain. In this way,
when the last days Of the session ar.

house and with a single roll call can
enact them into laws, without needing
time to transmit them to the second
