BILLS PRESENTED MR ALLEN presented H F 47 a bill for uu act to establish a public school system and to provide for the maintenance mainte-nance and supervision of ublic schools in the Territory of Utuh It was read by its title and referred to the commit tea on education THE REFORM ECHOOL BILL H F 10 the bill to establish a reform school cauie up for discussion and tue question recurred on Air amendment amend-ment offered tbe previous day givin the Governor the power to appoint the seven directors provided for Thu ball was opened by eMit e-Mit honE who said he desired to make a short argument in answer to tho assertions made by a g ntfeman trom e other side1 who had so confi Jeuusberted that a Wibconsin Paw i aovervd the matter so completely as to I Oe a matir of surprise tbat anyone Should fur 8 moment take exception to it The whole he thought hm ed to a great extent upon the question as to whether these mreciora were or were not officers arid he did not believe that the Wisconsin report on which so much stress had been laid bad the remotest connection with the matter under consideration con-sideration The e directors were Territorial Terri-torial officers then therewas no question ques-tion out tne Governor bad a right lo appoint ap-point a right expressly conferred upon him by the Organic Act The directors to be elecied under this act were without with-out doubt Territorial officers they were to be paid from the Territoritd funds for performing Territorial work For years the Legislature had stood in opposition to the rulings of the court on this very matter It did not matter however which way the House voted Such action ac-tion cannot change the law in the case He hoped the members would weigh the matter carefully aid when the question came to the front vote intelligently on the matter He was gratified to see yesterday yes-terday one member of tne House arise aud concede the right of the Governor to appoint certain officers He would ask the gentleman to go alittle farther and admit that the directors were also officers For the benefit of the half dozen tourists who occupied the floor the gentleman then spoiled the whole ot his effort by ringing in the ancient chestnuts of defiance to the govern nent that the time had come when something must be done to reclaim the gauntlet thrown down and quit MR TUUEMAN replying said ho did take the position that the Governor had the rifiht to appoint certain otlicsis under un-der the provisions < f the Organic Act but these wore not such ollicea as are contemplated in the bill under discussion Stroug statements had been made by both sides each claiming that it was right He desired to be fair in the natter I i he offices appointive were a part of the executive were necessary for the very existence of the government and herein laid the difference between them These directors were merely appointed as a matter of convenience and without them the government would still roll on Under the same line of argument it might be claimed that the commissioners commis-sioners to locate University lands were also appointive that the board of directors of the asylum were also to be appointed by the Governor Yet the decision of the AttorneyGeneral was I opposed to this idea He did not propose I pro-pose to drag politics into this matter and say to that people or this people come within the law They say we must harmonize butthat bas nothing to do with the matter We can fill the offices in any way we want to either by election appointment or by giving the Governor the power to appoint The speaker was of the same opinion now as ha had always been and unless some better arguments than he had yet heard was brought out he should certainly vote no on the proposition to give the Governor the appointive nower MR HoG isked the privilege of again addre sing the house He thought Mr Thurman had merely endeavored to pull the wool over the apes of the members for the purpose of darkening this question He again Insisted in-sisted that the matter was as pla n as the nose on a mans face He was astonished that the gentleman should make such assertions as he had done when the very illustrations he had quoted were direct proof tOi the contrary con-trary If we pass the bill as it now stands we violate the Organic Act and l even if there was a doubt wo uld it not be better for us to concede that much If we pass this bill we not only show defiapce to the government but violate the laws as well Would it not bo better bet-ter for the peace and quiet of the Territory Ter-ritory to yield obedience I ask this house whether it woul be a sacrifice of any principle Will there be a sacrifice of anything I say no MR RICHARDS thought much had I been said upon this question great Ideal I-deal of eloquence had been wasted He saw also another question and one which confronted him ironi the stand on the day the Governor delivered his messagethe modest request made at that timeIYou surrender to inc the government of the Territory and you will then be in harmony with 50000000 of the American people But I do not believe it would be becpming in us < fo surrender our prerogativein tue matter simply because we are asked to do it is no reason why should be done He aid not believe that the offices men I itthQa so then arn the directors of the asylum the clerk and other officers of this I I House and even the guards who patrol I the walls otthe Penitentiary If he believed that such were the case he would mos heartily commend the appointment ap-pointment by the < ioernor He saw no reason why the rights ofthe Legislature Legisla-ture should be surrendered MR KING Mr Speaker I move that we adjourn until Monday at 2 pm THE SPEAKER pw teml would like to call the attention of the members to the fact that but little worn bas so far I been done and would suggest an adjournment ad-journment until tomorrow MR HOGE 1 move as an amendment that an adjournment be taken until tomorrow to-morrow at 2 oclocK MR KING I am against the amendment amend-ment The committees are now overburdened over-burdened with work and an adjournment adjourn-ment until Monday will give them a chance to dispose of some of it The amendment being put it was lost and the House adjourned until Mon ay at2 p m I I |
