BOUNTY BILL H F 21 the bill to provide for the encouragement en-couragement of the manufacture of sugar and paying a bounty therefor then came up on special order and was slightly amended Mr Porter

territory over one million dollars yearly Mr Allen was not opposed to the bill but he was going to vote against it because he did not know whether there was enough money in the territorial treasury to take care of the public institutions now on hand Mr Williams spoke in favor of the bill Mr Thurman was of a similar frame of mind Wo had reached a point in our his tory when we are able to extend help to such worthy institutions It is only jus tice to encourage the expenditure of 300 000 to the small extent this bill proposes to do This appropriation should be made If any curtailing must be done let it bo done in other directions It has been demonstrated dem-onstrated that sugar can be made and we should give the projectors all the encouragement encour-agement possible The bill was then passed Wood Allen Sargent Pierce and Kimball voting in the negative It is as follows Section IBe it enacted by the governor and Legislative Assembly of the territory of Utah That there shall be paid
