an amendment is put in; and. if We
keep on in this way, the session will
be over and the bill will not reach the
Senate.
The SPEAKER PRO TEN: Will the
gentleman from Biddeford (Mr. Des-
coteaux) allow me to interrupt him?
The Chair is in error. The question
before the House should be, and is.
on the acceptance Of the report. The
House Report is as follows: The COM
mittee on labor to which was referred
bill, An Act relative to the hours Of
employment of women and minors,
have had the same Under considera
ton, and ask leave to report the same
in a new draft under same title. and
that it ought to pass" The question,
therefore, at this time is upon the &C
ceptance Of the report. The amend
ment may be considered after that.
On motion by Mr.. McCarty Of Lew
iston, the report was accepted.
Mr.. Thombs Of Lincoln moved that
the bill be given its first reading.
The SPEAKER Pro TEN: The Chair
will say to the gentleman from Lin
coin that the bill should lie on the ia
bic under the Joint rules for printing.
MIR. THOMBS: I accept the sugges-
tor.
Mr.. PLUMMER of Lisbon: Mr..
Speaker. l understand that the report
that has just been accepted by the
House is on House Document 32S,
which I judge is a new draft of the
original bill, and which seems to me
to Ue the bill now before the House.
Should it not be given its first and
second reading now? Possibly l am in
error
The SPEAKER Pro TEN: will
state to the gentleman from Lisbon
that the bill has been printed. The mo-
ton now before the House is that the
bill be given its first and second read
ing,
The motion was agreed TO, ana the
bill received its first and second read
ing, and was assigned for its third
readin. tomorrow morning at 3 O'Clock.
tFor debate see Legislative Record }
The SPEAKER pro ten. The Chair
