but was afterwards reconsidered and
killed in the senate on account of other
Iegislation; and no doubt there was
majority Of the members of that legis-
lature of 1891 in favor of resubmssion,
but the majority was very small The
same resolution was introduced in the
third Legislative assembly, but the SEN
timent had changed so in the mean time
that a majority of the members were
opposed to the resubmssion resolution.
1t was introduced in the fourth, fifth
