RESOLUTIONS.
Mr. Bunyan offered a resolution to change the hour of daily meeting from ten to nine o'clock A.M.,
It lies on the table one day under the rules.
Mr. Banyan gave notice of his intention to call it up to-morrow.
Mr. Collett offered a resolution directing the Attorney General to report his opinion as te whether a woman is eligible to the office of State Librarian. Adopted.
Mr. Rhodes offered a concurrent resolution, requesting Indiana Congressmen to urge the passage of a law regulating railroad tariff.
Mr. Harney understood that Congress has no power to legislate in this way, and was opposed to anything looking to the enlargement of Federal authority in this direction.
Mr. Rhodes knew the people of the West are very much agitated on the subject of railroad freights, and he regarded it as a matter proper for Congressional interference.
Mr. Scott thought the resolution should not be passed in the present form. The State is capable of regulating domestic traffic without the interference of Congress. He moved the reference of the resolution to the Committee on Railroads.
Mr. Harney believed Congressional interference, even if it should be had, would be decidedly against the West. Agreed to.
