The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-04-20
EVENING SESSION.
Bills Recommended for Passage OF
Killed Last Night.

The evening session was commenced
at $780, when, after refusing to hear
some reports, the house went into the
committee of the whole with Mr.. Sta
pies in the chair Mr.. Grondahl sug-
geSted that as it seemed as If there
were number of bills which would
not be reached, it might be a good plan
to give each man on the roll call the
privilege of calling up one bill in which
he was interested.
Mr. Donnelly, being near the top OF
the roll, was naturally of the opinion
that this was a clever plan, and lent
his approval to 1T. Likewise, Mr.. Dahl
who would come in the first platoon,
liked the arrangement. But some Of
the members down we'll on the list in
terposed very vigorous objection, but
the suggestion that, with reasonable
speed, the list could be fairly we'll
cleaned up, was we'll received and
the bills were taken up in their regu-
lar order quite as seriously as if there
were some chance that even If passed
by the house they could get to the
final action of the senate. The bills
taken up and acted upon, as indicated
