bill was held up it would make trouble
with the House. They were likely to
adjourn again.
Senator Baldwin replied that he
wanted to find out what the bills were
for; the House knew the exact amount.
and why should it be passed in a lump
sum; $1,000 might be too much and it
might be too little. Then again the
Governor and Attorney-General were
of the opinion that the bill should be
itemized, these were bills of the last
session and on the same plane as all
other unpaid bills. The bill should be
passed in such shape that it should not
receive veto and so the money might
be paid.
BROWN FEARS TROUBLE.
Senator ]. T. Brown replied that it
was not right for a committee to ex-
anime into the accounts OF the House
for the reason that on the former bill
there had been a dispute. and there
were hard words in the House over the
action of the Finance Committee In
making an agreement with the Sem
ate.
Senator Achi suggested that the Sem
ate should ascertain what the money is
to be paid for; If the money was to be
used for printing the journal it could
not be used for anything else. The
Governor would veto the bill, and for
the sake of the House he wanted it
passed properly.
Senator Baldwin said he wanted the
committee to find out whether the bill
was constitutional. which was his only
Eobject.
President Crabbe said he had mes
sage from the Governor which might
clear up the matter and the clerk read
the veto of the House expense bill;
| On motion of Senator Isenberg the
veto was referred to the judiciary Com
mittee. The House bill for unpaid bills
was referred to the same committee.
| Senator Achi moved that the commit
tee be authorized to meet with COM
mittee from the House to consider the
message. Carried.

A communication was received from

Senator Achi reported for the Judi
ciary Committee that it nad been de-
cided to offer a new measure to cover
the Governors objections to the House
expense bill AS to the unpaid bills he
reported that the $1,000 was wanted for
paying for the printing of the journal,
