 Mir Graham raised a technical ob- iection to the motion. It was i'm proper and impossible he said. Mir. Richardson said that the com mittee could not appropriate money for a commission which had ceased
 on March II to exist. Mir. NcClain. replying to the fear of MT. Lines that | tho legislature might not agree upon
 a land code, said that the legislature
 must agree; the party had promised to agree and he was therefore op- posed to the consideration of any thing relating to the land depart mcnt until there had been land legis- lation-

 The expressed suspicion regarding the Pinkley motion was that if it had carried and the land commission had been provided for for the next two years. there would be no land lcGis- ;ation in a session which it is under stood would be called after this one Democratic leaders claim to have SC cured the promise of the governor for such d call for the purpose of securing legislation relative to the school lands.
