came up for third reading In the house.
jThe Mil. . R. 27. mustered Just fifty
the initial roll call, lac king Just

a rail of the houae had been
ordered, four members who had voted
for the bill changed to the negative. Kf-
forta were made to wesr out the op-1
position by continuing the call of the
houre, but after consuming half an hour s
time In this msnner the friends of the
bill gave tip the fight.
The final vote announced by the speaker
wss: For the hill, 4; sgainst, 46; absent
snd not voting, 8.
Those who first voted for the hill and
afterward changed over were Messrs.
Taylor. Mears, Reynolds and Richmond.
Air. Richmond declared that sentiment In
Douglas county was divided on ths bill.
Jerry Not IHacoairaaed.
"I'll stick to the ship it I go down with
11," retorted Howard.
Before the bill was voted upon Mr. Tib
'octal moved to. lay It over until next Tues
day, as he thought there was some doubt
of Its constitutionality. He declared him
self In fsvor of the principle, but did not
want a bill passed which would afterward
be knocked out In the courts.
Mr. llowsid vehemently objected, say
ing that he wsnted to put every member

living wage or stsrvstlon." The motion
to Isy over was ruled out of order.
Meaars. Barker, Barrett. Fuller, Negley,
Palmer, rkott and Tlbbeta, voting against
the bill, explained why they did so. Some
of them believed the bill would not hotd
water, and others that It would Injure
rather than benefit the' laboring man.
