the house this afternoon was signalized
by factious opposition from Martin. who
opposed the tri1ing amendment offered by
the attorney general to a number of acts

sition was based on the statement of the
attorney general that legislation passed
by Martin was bad because the following
session It had to be amended The time
of the house was wasted in this way for
some time.
Apart from this, the principal features
were the passage of a supply bill to pro-

exhausted.
