Mr.. PIERCE Of Houlton. Mr.. Speak
er, in regard to that measure / wish
to say that tried to get from the en-
crossing clerk all the bills for main
tenance of institutions already exist
! ing where there is no dispute in re-
n I,n nv % hn
| ton asked. This is the only one I
could find, and after conference with
the gentleman from South Portland,
Mr.. Sanborn, relative to having the
rule holding these matters up sus-
pended, I will now move that the Or
der Of the House providing that no
| measure carrying an appropriation OF
money shall be finally passed prior to
| March Is, be suspended, and that this
resolve be finally passed
The question being on the motion
| that the order passed by this House
! whereby all bills and resolves carrying
an appropriation Of money should not
be finally passed prior to March 18th,
| be suspended, for the passage of this
| resolve,
| The motion was agreed to.
The resolve was then finally passed

MIR. st. Clair Of Calais moved that |
| the House reconsider it's vote by

Doc No. zoe, Resolve in favor of the |

| Mr.. PLCMMER of Lisbon: Mr.. !
| Speaker, inasmuch as l assume the
object of the gentleman from Calais, !
Mr.. ST. Clair, is TO take different ac- |
ton than the action of the House |
! whereby it was voted to indefinitely |

1t would be just as we'll for US to con-
! slider the main question now, ana. |

in relation to the matter at this time !

| the State treasurer as dog licenses in |
| excess of the amount actually collect I,
| ed as such in said town for the year /
! l912'-assuming that that title correct
