reaching a third reading and getting on its passage to its being BO so difficult to keep a quorum the bill was lost several members who were in favor of the bill were absent on some committee work the result was a tie and the president voted against the bill one member of the house was heard to state that that bel waa was ton years yeara ahead ot of the territory rather an uncomplimentary assertion A few days ago mr dr the historian made a proposition to the ass assembly ably to prepare a history of the territory for certain stated sums bums As it was not presented in a shape desirable to the

land ceded by the city to the territory for the capitol grounds the proper fron frontage taga is not more than half the width of a proper bu building iding being something in the shape of a triangle or old time flit flat iron it is held that the building can be set back and the frontage used as an open public court facing the main street t r e t of of I 1 the city this however woid n necessitate
