house as the section now stands and 1.-the house can vote on the question as to whether when he states the fact of his connection, whether 1t is per- | sonal interest. or euch interest as should properly bar him from voting or exclude him from voting. The section Is right as it Is, and I, therefore: move | to lay the amendment on the tapie. Upon a vote being taken the motion | to table was carried.
 l Leaves of absence were granted as follows:
 MT. Reynolds of Chiffon. Mir. Weath- | erly. MT. Reynolds of Henry, MT. smith of Autauga, Mir. Espy for today. MT. Pillans. MT. F'itts Mir. Senten, | Mir.

MT. ORear for Saturday and Monday.
 Mir. Dent-I rise to question or privilege. ,,
 The President-The gentleman VIII state the question of privilege.
 MT. Dent-This morning when in- troduced the resolution In reference 10 l the ordinance introduced by the gen. tleman from Greene
 l The President-will the gentleman
 suspend one moment.
 MT. Burns--In deference to my COT.
 ,Ggue of Dallas. l give notice that | I may make a motion 10 reconsioeF the vote by which the Convention re- fnsed to accept the amendment offered 1 by me. ,,
 The President-The Chair will state. for the information of the gentleman from Dallas, that the question would be upon the adoption of the Section. MT. Burns-I voted aye for the adop- | ton of the Section.
 1 MT. Dent-i was going to state thar this morning when l offered the reso- iutton and asked it's reference to the Committee on Rules. it was referred to the Committee on Corporations by the | Chair. I desire to read Rule 2S. be- cause I think the Chair. possibly with out due consideration, made an error | in it's ruling.
 The rule says: "An resolutions be- fore voted on shall be referred to and | reported from the Committee on Ruies. except" don't think my resoiu. | ton comes within the exception, ana | I thought under the rules it ought 10 have gone to the Rules Committee. | The President-The gentleman did | not call the rule to the attention of the Chair at the time.
 MT. Dent-I could not find it at the time.
 The Pres:dent-If the gentleman had done so, the ruling of the Chair would have been different. nhe Chair is of the opinion that if the gentleman had called the attention of the Chair to the rule the ruling would have been M tyacy
 vailed with the Chair was that it af- fected the report of Committee. and 1t seemed to the Chair at that time it
 was proper to go to the Committee as expressive of the sense of the House that an early report should be made. Mir. Dent-Well, all desire Is to get a report. It seems to me, by implica- tion, a resolution, requesting a com
 mittee to report should go to the same Committee.
 Mir. Malone-That would apply to resolutions before the appointment of committees and the Chair has so held heretofore.
 The President-That has been the line of construction of this rule. The Chair remembers since the gentlemen calls attention to the rule. 1t has been the practice to refer resolutions as well
 az ordinances to the respective com-
 mittees having in charge the subject as to which they were submitted, but had in charge the subject as to which they were submitted, but had the gen. tleman called the attention of the Chair to this rule. it might have induced the Chair to rule differently.
 Thereupon the Convention adjourned
 until Monday morning at Il o'clock. Corrections.
 In forty-seventh days proceedings the remarks of MT. deGraffenreid, ex- planatory of his amendment to Section 24 of the Article on Legislative De- partment should read as follows:
 MT. deGraffepreid-I do not care to discuss that amendment. I call the attention of the Committee. however. to the fact that it strikes from the Section under consideration the pro- vision that two-thirds of the House may dispense with the reading of the bill at length when 1t is to be signed by the presiding officer of such House. Heretofore the law has required the presiding officer of each House to sign all bills In the presence of the House, but, as the law only required such sig nature after bills had been read by their titles merely, this Convention knows that frauds have been perpe- trated upon the General Assembly. As we have already declared that the Journals of each House shall be pre- stunned to be absolutely true, I think that everything that can be done by this Convention to prevent a fraud be- ing perpetuated upon the General As sembly should be done. For that req son I offer the amendment and move the previous question.
