ORDER OF BUSINESS.

Mr. SEARS: I move to reconsider the resolution which says that the House shall take up the House bills in their order on the calendar. The Senate has all day debated the resolution to adjourn on Monday. They have not found a House bill for two weeks, and will not likely for another.

Mr. WILLIIAMS said that this resolution contemplated correcting this evil.

Mr ENGLE thought that the breach which new existed between these two branches should not be widened by this movement.

Mr. MOODY said that the Senate was willing to adopt a resolution similar to the one the House adopted, and that he had copied the House resolution for a Senator to offer in that body.

Mr KELLISON said that no such action should be taken toward a co-ordinate branch of the Assembly. It were better to work together He moved to lay the motion to reconsider on the table.

Mr. SEARS: I will withdraw my motion.

The SPEAKER: The resolution gives me the right to name the first half of each day for Senate bills on the third reading. There are twenty-seven of them yet on the calender. I shall designate the whole of to-morrow for the consideration of House bills.

The House adjourned.
