the floor to present his long unrecognized un-recognized disclaimer from the company minutes of responsibility for the state of the For Another Cleric Whitney moved to refer to the commit tee on elections the question as to whether wheth-er another clerk was not necessary He said he had been misunderstood in his remarks of the day before when he had suggested the election of a minute clerk His Intention was not to discredit the force of clerks then employed In fact he believed the clerks were an overworked body They had to attend to the work of a body three times the size of the ordinary legislature and there should bean be-an additional force Eichnor said the fault was not with the clerks I was with the members I the notes of the stenographers were ever published they would make the worst jumble ever seen The carping was due to a great extent to the fact that two and three members would gain the floor and make motions that were absolutely unintelligible I Eldredgo tried to cut the debate short by a motion to adjourn but was voted down Evans of Utah said he was not favorable I favor-able to the proposition He fully agreed with Eichnor that the fault lay with the disorder in the house But that could be remedied The convention had rules and if these rules were properly enforced there would be no trouble He would like to see those rules enforced once and I then when business was being done properly prop-erly there would be a good opportunity I to judge what was being done by the clerks Until that time ho was not in favor of doing anything in the matter Goodwin who had evidently been labored labor-ed with for his bitter remarks of the day before said he did not mean anything by them derogatory to the clerks He was speaking about Pierce Whitneys motion carried and the convention I con-vention adjourned until 2 p m on Monday |
