The bill was strongly opposed by
Wade, who said he believed no such
law exists anywhere 1t makes the
municipality liable in cases where it
has never been liable before. He be-
lieved it dangerous.
Clough characterized it as a vicious
bill, and the most dangerous innova-
ton he had ever heard of.
Fairweather offered am amendment
that the provisions of the bill should
the past, asd the bill went to print
still pending final passage.

HENRY T. GAGE, Governor.
Under unfinished business Dibble
called up the consideration of Braun
harris fender bill, S. B. -, which was
left pending final passage, with an
amendment and a motion for the pre-
vious question both hanging over its
head
Rather a fine point of order arose be-
tween Dibble and White. White claim
ing that O'Brien had, on Saturday, only
temporarily withdrawn his amendment
to repair technical error, during which
time Dibble moved the previous ques-
ton; therefore, commended White, the
previous question was on O'Brien's
amendment, not on the final passage
of the bill
Dibble, however, insisted that the
previous question rested on the pas
sage of the bill and when White stood
to his point and claimed that he had
consulted the best authorities, Dibble
rose in wrath and with characteristic
gesture and expression exclaimed:
L am the best authority on parlia-
mentary law in this State"
1t was recorded as al correction of the
journal of Saturday that Mr. Dibble
moved the previous question on the
passage of the BILL" after which Dbl
BILE acceded to a motion to rescind the
previous question: and O'Brien got in
his amendment which provides Athat
''the Board of Supervisors or City Coun-
Gil or other governing body of any city
or other municipality shall, by ordi-
nance, order or resolution prescribe the
fender or brake to be used aforesaid
on the day this Act takes effect" This
was adopted
Merrill offered an amendment pro-
viding that the brake, to be satisfactory
must stop the ear when required"
This was also adopted and the bill was.
on motion of Dibble, sent to print and
restored to it's place on the Senate spec
ial file
