INDIANA LEGISLATURE.
Omissions anil curtailments of this report for vanl of space in thtse columns will appear in an appendix to Vobunt JCJCII of the Ltevier Legislative Reports. IN SENATE. Friday. Jan. ."0. 1883-10 a. m. rai.tnsu or bills. Mr. FOWLER cil'ei np his proposed amendmert to the rules, so that when a committee report farcrably on a bill but serenty-five capiea shall be printed il the committee so recommend. He said it will ccst $10,000 this session' to print tills under the rule as it no 7 stands. Mr. YOUCHE opposed tie amendment. The present rule is an improvement on the practica last session, and there would be less expense ender the present rule than was incurred during ths past one or two Legislatures. Unless bills are printed but few members can understand the protiaionsof the measures on which they will be called upon to vote. It is an easy matter when a bill Is of small importance or some Eenator to mere that it be not printed. Mr. MARSHALL: Many bills are of a dangerous character of legislation. The Alien bill of several years ago was not printed, and it passed both bouses easily. If it had been printed it would not haye pfred and that b 11 baa been of reat dim - o th Tnnie of the State. Every Ser a tOX should have a fair eh&uce to unders'ani ia. pioviaions of every billespecially those reported favorably from committees. Mr. MclNIOSli was of opinion there has already been more printing this session than curiDg the whole cf laat session. He spoke f the strings out of the printed matter nnccetßarily, which increases the cost. When a bill is read eome member can de teimine if there are vicious principles in it, &d if so, it can be ordered printed. He hctcdthe amendment would be passed in tr interest of economy. ilr. ECHLOSa thought it for the lnforma. tic n of every Senator to have bills printed. Enough time has been spent in discussing this question to pay for the printing of probably rifty bills. He demanded the previous question. The Senate seconded the demand for the previous question, and under its operations tie proposed amendment to the rules was rejected by yeas 12, nays 30. SESSION HOURS. Mr. FOWLER called np from the files his notice for an amendment of the rules, so that the daily sessions shall commence at 9 O'clock a. m. Mr. McCOLLOUGH opposed the amendment. He desired the Senate should be as Industrious as possible, but as we all know the work of this body now is being done in the committee rooms. With a little more attention, the business is this Chamber can be done in four hours per dy. Committee members should not be compelled to sit In ommittee rooms till 11 and 12 o'clock at rught, when so much time is idled away in ien Senate. Mr. WILL ARD: So far as the amendment wield be economy in time, if would have tfc contrary effect. An early hour for meeting would show no quorum present, and pctiibly force an early adjournment on trat account. It is well enough later in the MBiion, when ail the committee work Is in, to meet earlier, but now it would prove an absolute lo?s of time. Mr. FOWLER desired a change so that members might have a chance to blow off their gas between 0 and 10 o'clock, and so be able to get down to business- by 10 o'clock. He believed as many members would be here at 9 as at 10 o'clock. It is the general deeire that there shall be no extra session, and let us work with that view. He insisted tLp arxendment should prevail. Tne amendment to the rule was rejected by yea 17. cava -S. Mr. FAULKNER (explaining his negative vote): If rule 13 were enforced we would gain more than this Lour between 0 and 10 o'clock. THE STATE'S TREASURE INVESTIGATION. Mr. FOULKE: I rise to a question of privilege. A few days since you did me the nonor, Mr. Freaideot, to appointjme as a member of a committee to whom was referred that portion of the Governor's message in regard ta the State Treasury, which committee was required to report whether an investigation was proper and necessary. A state of facts has occurred since that time which, in my humble opinion, renders it impossible for any man who respects himself to continue longer a member of a commute whose only purpose, as he believes, is to stille an investigation in regarJ to which it was authorizsd to inquire. 1 wish to lay this motion before the Senate and ascertain whether the Senate desires, under the circumstances, that I should longer remain a member of the committee. The committee met nn the afternoon of day before yesterday at the Rates HouseMr. McCOLLOUGH (interrupting): I rise to a point of order. I don't think there is any question of privilege about this. The S?r ator proposes to state what has occurred in the Committee reom. I don't think ha has any right to make that sort of a statement under the claim of a question of privilege. Mr. FOULKE: I should oe very glad to refer the Senate as to what are questions of privilege under parlimentary law. They are questions relating to the coaduct of memWtf, and the complaint of one member against another. Tnese have been decided as quistions of privilege as to the conduct cf a member, and as to whetäer or not it is proper that I shall continue longer a member ot a committeeMr. McCOLLOUGH (interposing): I insist on my point ot order. The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR: I will refer this quesUcn of order to the Senator from Lawietce (Mr. Wi!lard)and the Senator frcm Marion (Mr. Winter) to decide wl ether this is a question of privilege ar nor. Mr. WILLARD: When would you like to tave a retort from this committee? The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR: At once inm.ediately. While this committee was in consultation Mr. Duncan, of Brown, introduced a bill IS 201 J for the relief ot Joel L, Diyi. and actfcorizicß the refunding to him of certain avirgs paid into the treasury of Bartholomew Conr.ty , which was read the first time. Mr. WILLARD: The committee agrees tea: this matter introduced by the Seaatar from Wayne (Mr. Foulke) is not a question of privilege, and bases the opinion up?n the following authority : Reads. The denator from V ayne seems to think it is a question of privilege to ask to be excused from service cn a committee. It is decided otherwise. Readp.l Mr. FOULKE: I will ask, sir. not as a question of privilege, to be excused from serving cn that committee, and desire to state the recc why I ask. Mr. WILLARD: That Is not In order, under our regular order of business. We would have to suspend the regular order of bUSlrfSS. The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR: The Senator froifl Wayne (Mr. Foulke) will take ha teat. Mr. FOWLER: J move that the regular
order of business be suspended that ths 8)1atcr may state why he does not wish to act further with the Investigation Committee The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR: I hope there will be no objection. Several Senators "Consent," "consent," "regular order." Mr. FOULKE: On the occasion of the first meeting of the investigating Cummittee the State Treasurer was invited by some members of the majority to be present, and no objection was made whatever by any member ot the committee. The committee, after attending to eome preliminary dusInesp Mr. McCULLOUGH: I have no objection to everything that baa been done before that committee being told; but if the Senator Is to have the floor to make a speech we should have the riebt to reply. The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR: I requested the Senator from Wayne to tako his seat until the motion anould be decided by the Senator from Lawrence and the Senator from Marion, and they have decided against Mr. McCULLOUGH: I object to the Senator taiicg the tioor in this measure for the purpose of delivering a political speech. He dees not eeem to understand that he is returned with the minority here, and that the majority have the responsibility npoa them; that the same spirit which caused the mincriy four years ago to dictate what the legislation should be and what should not be has shown itself in this case, and the minority on that committee are determined to have their own way about it or refuse to act. The committee will in due time make a report, when the minority can also make a report I object to his making insinuations against the members of the committee. Mr. FOULKE: It is uufortusate in the extreme Mr. WILLARD (interrupting): I rise to a point cf order. The Senator from Wayne has no right to come upon this floor and impugn the motives of any member ot a committee. Mr. FOULKE: I impugn the motives of no one. Mr. WILLARD: You are doing it. If he is not satisfied with the action of the committee he has a regular parliamentary remedy., He can make a minority report in such language as he sees fit to use, and if the language is not proper he is amenable to the votes of the Senate. Mr. FOULKE: I have had, as I understand it, consent of the Senate to state the facts upon which I am asking to be excused from serving on the committee. Mr. WILLIARD: You have not stated the facts. Mr. FOULKE: I was proceeding to do so when interrupted by the Senator from Gibeon (Mr. McCollough ) The LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR: I intended to call your attention to the fact that objection was made. Mr. FOULKE: If the majority of this Senate feel that they can afford not only to stiSe the treasury investigation in their committee, but also to stifle an account of the transactions of their committee upon the floor of the Senate, I am content. Calls of "order" and raps of the gavel caused the Senator to raise hii voice to a high pitch. Tte LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR rapping with his gavel: The Senator will take his teat. Bills on the second reading wai the order at the adjournment, and under the rules, 1 suppose, that order shall be continued. MfEir PROTECTION. Mt. Hilligacb Sheep Hosbandy Encouragement bill 3, 79 coming up in regular it was read the second time. Mr. HILLIGASS: This bill provides that a registry of eheeD killed shall be kept, and the sheep paid for in the order in which they are registered. That is fair and just. It nakes it impossible for the Township Trustee to give preference to his neighbors in the payment of losses The bill also provides that the surplus funds shall be apportioned pro rata between cities and towns. It is well known a great portion of the tax levied upon dogs comes from cities and towns, and it is proper that cities and towns should have their pro rata share of the surplus. Mr. CAMPBELL, of St. Joseph: It seems to me there would be a decided propriety in recommitting this bill to the Committee on Agriculture for this reason: There are two if not three other bills on this same subject now before the Committee on Agriculture, a report on which has been delayed because eome Senators want to lay these bills before a convention of sheep raisers to meet in this city some time soon. Mr. 1IILLIGAS3: Oat of courtesy to the Senator from St. Joseph I consent that the bill may be referred to the Committee on Agriculture. It was so referred with an amendment proPC sed by the Senator from Elkhart (Mr. Davi), which was not read. SALE JiOTES. Mr. Fowler's bill 3. 112 to cut off frau 1nlect sales of personal property was read the second tlrre. Mr. SMITH, of Jay, moved to amend so the Recorder stall receive the same fee for recording sale notes as for recording chattel mortges. Mr. FOWLER: These bills of sales might cover many pages, and it might be injustice to require an officer to record them at th eame pr.'ce as chattel mortgages. It eeeru to me the bill ought to pass just as it is. 1 : proposes to give the officer compensation for what he does and nothing more. The amendment was rejected. Mr. WINTER moved to amend so the Recorder's fee shall in no case be less than fifty cents. Mr. WILLARD moved to strike from the amendment the word "less" and insert In lieu the word "more." Mr. FOULKE: I don't think the amendment would be juet to the Recorder. There aie instances where sucu instruments cover eight or ten pages, and it wonld not be fair to say the fee for recording shall not be morn than fifty cents. i Mr. MAGEE: The Recorder is the lowest paid officer in the county. He is not paid sufficiently in some counties to support him(elf and pay necessary clerk hire. I thin1; the motion of the Senator from Jay was right. I am opposed to the amendment to the amendment. It was rejected, and the amendment Mr. Winter's was agreed to. The bill was ordered engrossed. I55.4SE WOMAN TRANSPORTATION. Mr. 8mith's, of Jennings, bill 3. 73 to provide that a female attendant snail accompany insane women wh:le being conveyed to and from the Insane Hospital, and that the Superintendent shall have $2,000 per month eet aside as a fund for contingent expenses, what remains at the end of each month to be returned to the Treasury, com-
. ing up in regular orderMr. MCCL.UKJK: mis dux is xor tne convenience of the Superintendent who now has to pay current expenses out of his own pecket, and then depend on making out a bill and collecting it when the next monthl j meeting of the Board of Trustees takes place. It adds no more to the expense. Mr. MAGEE: This bill should be amended so as to apply to all the other Insane Hospitals. Mr. SMITH, of Jennings: The part relative to female patients could not be made to apply to the other hospitals, but the setting aside a contingent fund might. He moved to suspend the constitutional rule that the bill mieht b passed to the final vote now. Mr, MAGEE; J this this way of sus
pending the constitutional provision Is all wrong. The motion was rejected by yeas, 24; nays, 18 the required tao-thlrdj not voting in the affirmative. Mr. CAMPBELL, of St. Joseph, explaining his negative vote: Section 1 of this bill seems to contemplate that whatever has heretofore gone to the Sheriff for mileage in the transportation of female patients to and from the Insane Ajlum ehall go to the Superintendent of the institution. It seems to me the aggregate profits would be very large. And I apprehend there are othr features in this bill which the Senate shouli carefully consider Therefore I vote "no." On motion by Mr. 8mith, of Jennings, the bill was read the second time. On ttot'on by Mr. MAGEE it was referred to a f elect committee of three Messr. Magee, Smith ci Jennicgs, and Foulke with initructicns to amend so it ehall apply to all the insane hospitals, which committee icon returned the bill to the Benate with laid amendments. Mr. SMITH, of Jennings: This bill is intended to provide a hnmane way of transporting female patients to ana from the Hospital for the Inssne. There is an inhumane practice nov in vogue which we can net endure any longer. I move to adept the report of the committee to which the bill wa3 originally referred, and also the amendments reported by this special committee. Mr. MACY: In my opinion this bill proposes to take from the Sheriffs of the various counties a duty which is devolved upon them by the statutes, and give it to the Superintendents of the Hospitals for the Insane. For that reason I don't think it should be passed. I believe the fees and emoluments of the Superintendents of the Hospitals from this tource would amount to thousands of dollars. I move to make th s bill a special order for Thursday at 2 o'clock p. m. Mr. WINTER: There are several things in this bill which should receive much more careful consideration. The law which now regulates the transportation of patients id the Insane Hospital makes ample provision for female attendants; it does not use the word "female" but it covers the case. There is ample provision made to send not onlv a female assistant to the Sheriff, out some female relative of the patient. The Superintendents of hospitals, according to the provisions of tt is bill, are to have the compensations nc -.lloed assistants. Section 2.S71, K S. of IS-:, allocs eight cents per mile to every assu Ant hoth wajs, which, by this bill, is to go into tue pockets of the Superintendents of these asylums. I don't for one moment Imagine it was intended anything of that kind should be done under this bill. Again, I do not understand why 2,000 a month for contingent expenses should be put in the hands of the Superintendent of the central hospital and 1,000 a month in the hands of each of the Superintendents of the other hospitals. Twenty-four thousand dollars and 36,000 makes 30,000, which is a large sum of money to be diapojed ot in that way. Therefore I think the motion to postpone the consideration of this bill should prevail. Mr. MAGEE: That section is not properly guarded in relation to the compensation for bringing patients to the asylums. The motion to postpone was agreed to. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Friday, Jan. 30, 168310 a. m. ALIEU LAND HOLDERS. Mr. Robinson's bill H R. 13 to repeal an act authorizing aliens to hold titles to real estate, coming up in regular order was read the third time. Mr. 6AYRE: I am convinced that this bill in its present condition ought not to pass, for the reason tnat it is simply a repealing law. It will require further legislation declaring that aliens shall not held reales täte. The Senate bill contains these pro visions, and that bill has already cone through the Senate. I think it would be tetter to pestpene the consideration of thi3 bill. Besides, the title of this bill is not correctly stated here. Mr. WILLIAMS: I desire to say that tha title is correctly stated. I believe that tha consideration of th'.s bill ought not to be postponed. I think the bill ought to pass. It may be that by the passage of a bill of this character some further legislation may be needed, and if that is true I will vote for the Senate bill. This bill comes here in the regular order. Out of a considerable number of bills this bill was Eelected for passage. It has received the indorsement of the Ju diciary Committee, and I can see no reason why this bill should be postponed. Mr. ROBINSON: I am not in favor of postponing this bill. Two year3 ago I had the pleasure to introduce a bill of the same purport, and while it was the intention of that House to pass that bill, it was defeated by postponing, and never reached a vote. The title of this bill is copied from the original bill. If there is any defect, it was in the title of the original bill. Even if there is a Senate bill already passed that body, I see no impropriety in passing upon this bill. It gives ai) impetus to the idea. If the Senate bill reaches farther up, I see no reason why the passage of this bill should obstruct th passage of the Senate bill. It has been askeo whether, if this passes and becomes a law, it will rrevpnt alipn frnm tWMpqsinc tp1 p
täte to morrow. Probably not. There is nc ! emergency clause in it. I am not in favor of passiDg unfavorably upon this bill, so a to obstruct legislation upen that subject. Mr. LOYD: This is a vry important measure, and it is expedient on the part e; the House to use discretion in passing it. I am opposed to this bill and in favor of the Senate bill, which I think i3 full and com plete. The bill bsfore the House repeals the law that gives aliens the right to hold rea; estate in the State of Indiana. I apprehend that the passage of this bill would give rise to different que ations of doubt, and pos9ibiy involve saen who have acquired rights under our laws in long and continued legislation. The Senate bill makes some provisions for men who have purchased real estate under the existing law. The bill before the House do.s not do this. I approve the sentiment of the bill as far as it goes. bu. I think we should not be too hasty and enact legislation that will require additions to it. Mr. BROWNING: I am In favor of the provisions of this bill, but while that is true I don't think it right and proper for this House to proceed and paesthe bill while the Serate bill, which contains all the provisions of the present bill, is before oar committee. We don't need thesa two bills. The title is not good because it has been copied from the old bill. It Is defective, I move that the further consideration of this bill be postponed until next Thursday morning. Mr. ADAMS: The motion to postpone this bill until next Thursday Is a wise motion. We all agree as to the merits and the ideas of this bill. I don't believe this bill will reach the ends that we all want to reach. The bill that comes from the Senate gives aliens five years in which to dispose of their property, Mr. SMITH, of Tippecanoe: I favor the postponement of this because it can't hurt the bill. A few days' delay will not alTect the bill. Mr. KELL I SON: It has been stated that if this bill is passed in its present form we would be without law upon this subject. In other wordf, that aliens could not take by descent. There is a law upon this subject. That law is still in force and was not repealed by the act of lfcSl. So Ihe effect of repealing this act would leave the law in fcrcethat Is already in force authorizing
real estate to pass to aliens by descent. In the absence of all statutory law I undertake to say that no alien has a right to hold real estate in the State oi Indiana. I hope the bill will not be postponed. Mr. WILLIAMS demanded the previous question. The House seconded the demand, and under its operation the motion to make this bill a special order for Thursday next was agreed to by yeas 55, raya öß. STATIONERY FOR COUNTY OFFICERS. Mr. Helms bill . R. 32 to provide for the purchase of all stationery for county officers by the Coanty Commissioners, coming up in reznlar order, was read the third time. Mr. HELiiS: Oar coanty has trieJ the plan of purchasing stationery after the plan tuege8ted in the bill, and found it worked admirably. At the close of 1SS4 our eounty learned that by purchasiag stationery themBalves they made a saving of $f)00. Thinking that it woaM mako a general saving throügbon: the State, I have introdacei this bill, and ask its pa-age. Mr. STALE Y: We nave had some experience in this line in my county, only our experience is jast in the other way precisely. We found that it was a losi of money, and that we did not get a? eood stationery bv al
lowing the County Commissioners to purchase it, I am opposed to the bill. Mr. GOODING: There is a good deal in the character and quality of paper, and I think the clerks and otficsrs of the county are better judges of what kind of paper they want than the County Commissioners. I think the county officers are better qualified to know the quality of the paper they want. Mr. HARRE LL: As far as the officers of my county are consernei I con-ider them honorable gentlemen. As has been eaid, they know what they want. The stationery men will form a combination on the County Commisiioners, and they will be oblidged to take the stationery at the price offered by this combination. I am opposed to the bill. Mr. ENGLE: There eeems to be a misunderstanding about this bill. The only d'fference between this bill end the law is that the bill provides that the furnishing ct stationery shall be let by public auction. The law provides that the County Commissioners shall buy all the pacer they want. This bill would cause a reduction in the cost of the stationery, and I thick it ought to pass. Mr. DITTEMORE: Far two years past the county officers of my county have beea cutting down the price of stationery by letting the furnishing out to auction. I believe this is a wise measure, and oaght to pass. Mr. LOYD: I believe that county officers are elected with a view to their fitness aod qualifications. I apprehend that a Board of County Commissioners know as little about the wants of a certain clerk as it is possible for them to know. I believe the bill before the House would b9 the means of bringing into me in the offices an inferior class of stationery, and this is especially not desirable, when we come to include ths different books of records and tax duplicates, etc. It is necessary that they be of the very best quality. I can not conceive who could be a tetter jude cf the stationery thev want than the County Auditor, County Clerk, or any other officer. I am opposed to the biil. The bill finally passed the House of Representatives by yeas 52, nays 11. -AFTERNOON SESSION. THE STATE TREASURY. The Speaker announced the epecial order for this hour, being the consideration of the Senate amendment see page 88 of the Brevier Reports- to the House concurrent resolution for an investigation iaio the Governor's failure to make an examination of the Sta Treasurer's office. Mr. McMULLEN moved that the further consideration of the concurrent resilution and amendment to postponed until next Thuisday at 2o'c'ock. Mr. S.1YRE: I hope the motion to postpone the cccs.deration of this concurrent Tescl ation wtjj not pa&s. I hope so because I fftl from the information that I am possessed cf that the subject demands immediate attention. If all of the members of this House don't know, some of the members do know that the condition of the Indiana State Treasury is in ro wise in the condition that the law or public safety require its. On that account I believe that this Senate amendment ought to be concurred in, authorizing the formation of a committee. I do this for the reason that the Senate has awakened to the public demand upon this question that the Treasury cf the State of Indiana was in an unsafe condition and that it should be investigated, and the Senate paid heed to that voice and reversed it? action upon this subject. I believe that the House onght to concur in this snen lnent, and that a committee ought to be formed with power to send for persons aud papers. I think I am not going beyond what the people generally believe that the Treasurer of the State of Indiana for the last two years has been constantly violating the law; that he is a criminal under the laws of the Stale of Indiana; and I believe by investigation their officer will be shown to be an embezzler, and when he takes the oath of office it will be moral perjury on his part This is the condition of the State Treasury. Where there should be $4Sü,0C0 I feel safe in saying there is not one1 alf that amount. I feel safe in saying that all sorts of schemes and devices have been resorted to by the Treasurer and his friend3 to make an appearance or a showing that might satisfy a committee only asking questions of witnesses not under oath, I don't believe that any useful information will be ceiived from the report of the committee we have already appointed, and ou that account I think the further consideration of this question ought not to be postponed. Because of a misunderstanding between the members of the committee as to their power and authority, they csn not and will not afford this House any information that will be useful upon this question. In no JwayJ can this matter be settled so that the people of Indiana will be satisfied except by the appointment of a committee with the authority to send for persons and papers and making a complete snowing of the Treasury of the State of Indiana. I believe I am warranted further in giviD g information to this Hcuse.and lam not quite sure that it is violatingetiquette,that the committee that ij now in the investigation of these affairs are utterly powerless to make investication. 1 can show that the Treasurer holds 500,000 worth of Marion County orders drawing interest. While the law requires that he shall have the cash in tLe Treasury to pay on demand, yet he exhibits as assets county orders issned to John C, Shoemaker, that are more than twelve months due and drawing Interest This committee has not power to find out whether these orders are the equivalent of cash. I have sa!d this much why the investigation ought not to be popstponed. The Treasurer is soon to file anew bond, and bsfore his term commences or Is entithd to commence under the law this investigation ought to be trace complete and thorough. Any legislation upon thfs subject will be retarded and prevented if it is possible. So that the wise thing for you to do if you want to be faithful to the public interest and protect the funds that have been raised by the hard processes of taxation, Is to make this investigation cow that the people may feel entirely Eafe in relation to the condition of tneir funds in the State Treasury. Mr. McMULLEN : I shall not go into
the discussion that the gentleman has indulged in. This reeolution was passed by this House and taken to the Senate, and before that resolution came back they passed a resolution asking that the House cancur with them in the making of a committee to investigate the part of Governor Torter's message referring to the State Treasury. The majority of this House passed that resolution. That committee has been doing its work and doing it well. Contrary to what the gentleman has raid this committee has understood the resolution very well. I know that they understood it so well that every Democrat voted on one eida and the Republicans on the other. I don't know of a ay misunder
standing. Now Is it la'r ana right to appoint another committee bsfore the one already appointed has had tiaie toreojrt? This is the test raon in the world vhy ths consideration of this resolution and its amendment be postponed until Thursdy at 2o"clck, and by that time I have rtasoa ti believe that the committee that has been appointed to see whtthtr this investigation was necessary will hare reported, and the House can tell what to do. I demand the previous question. The House seconded the demand, and under its operations the motion to postpone was agreed to by ayes ol, nays 33. Real Estate Tranefers.

Piles are one of the most disagreeable and painful of disorders. They are generally produced by sedentary habits, indigestion, ccstiveness or intemperance. The disease is of common occurrence, and to effect a certain cure should be promptly treated by proper remedies. There is nothing more suitable by its wonderful curatiye action than i'ond's Extract Ointment, in which the medical virtues of Tond's Extract which are very valuable in the above complaint, are in a state of great concentration. It 13 advisable in every instance, however, to use both the extract and Ointment, Ask your dru?gist and be sure you get the right articles. Sullivan Heavily Fined. Boston, Jan. :j0. John L.
