can set their reports In SO that We can
proceed by the 18th. no one Will rejoice
more than myself. The reason why the
order is introduced with the date as the
nty-fourth Is because it seems to me
there is absolutely no excuse FOR the re-
ports OF the committees not being in by
that time.
Mr. HIGGINS: Mr.. Speaker. under
stand that all the committees VIII nave
practically finished their hearings TINS
week and the committee reports Will be
in the hands Of this House the early
part OF mex, week: so that it was for
that reason that 1 made the suggestion
that we might be able to save some time
and still endeavor to adjourn on March
9Th by asking for division on the acop-
ton of the amendment.
Mr. ST CLAIR OF Calais: Mr.. Speak
er. 1 hope the substitution OF the
eighteenth for the ''twenty-fourth
will prevail. If We find on the 18th that
we have TO put il OF for day or TWO
We can do it. II seems 10 me there Is
| good deal OF force in the remarks OF the
gentleman from Brewer, Mr.. Higgins,
! that If il is put off until the aith We won't
be able 10 adjourn by the 9th. l think
the committee reports will be ready by
! the 18th.
/ The SPEAKER: Tie question is on

man from Brewer. Mr.. Higgins. that

the merits of the case deserve. l dare
say that every member Of this House has
heard OF the Mousam Water Company
and the Kennebunk Water District;
and since the early days of this Leg
islature representatives and friends OF

aobbies are setting forth what the
Mousam Water Company has done for
Kennabunk, and also the hardslips

The people of Kennebunk feel that they

this State have done, come to you and
ask for relief.
