But that dignitary was ina stuay, with halta dozen friends prompting him to decline to declare the vote. Calls were made for another reading of the resolution and the secretary responded to them, Church Howe then approached the secre- tary’s desk and in insinuating and pacifica- tory tones asked: “Why don't you declare the vote. There are fifty-five votes cast for the resolution. We've all kept track. You can’t change the result.” The chair, after some deliberation and con- siderabie prompting, announced that the res- olution was unconstitational, and as such it coula not be further considered. Watson Do you decline to aanounce the vote! That's the question The Speaker —~The chair holds that this Douse cannot invite Mr, Boyd to attend a {oint convention with the senate, over which it no control. White of Cass-Never you mind. We'll take care of that. All you've gotto dois to declare the vote. This was greeted by cheers from the demo- crats and republicans and groans from the others, Several more demands were made for a declaration of the vote and a number of inde- pendents moved to adjourn, “all the roll,” yelled the Boyd men, he roll call is demanded,” said the chair, *T rise to o point of order, shouted Stevens of Furnas. Watson - There can be no question of order or auy other thing raised pending a roll call. How very man hero 1s intelligent, He knows how this vote has gone, and you have 10 Tight to sit there (to the chair) and refuse 10 announce the result, The Chair—1 do refuse to announce the | vote. Crios for aajournment and yells of derision by the Independents, and peals of laughter from the north side of the chamber greeted the annpuncement, White— You may adjournif you so desire, | but Twant to tell you that there are fifty- five people hiere who will remain and run this legislaturo and let you folks take the conse- quences. We don't propase to be bulldozed by you (the chair) or any one else, The Chair—It would be unparliamentary to declare a vote like this under the cireum- stonces and because of the unconstitutional: ity of the act. Howe—Tuppeal from the decision of the chair. Numerods cries of ‘second the motion", greeted this announcement. McKesson of Lancaster—I am satisfied that our chairman is @ fair man and I don't think be ought to attempt to be uufair in order to support his party, But be ought jo realize that he can do only one thing now, and that 1s to declare the vote like an honest man, beju error. Itis preposterous. White—I risoto apointof order. Under your ruling of yesterday no business could be trausacted pending a roll call. Now, why don’t you hold so now? We'll stay here any vzay and organlze ourselves, Watson—Yes, and we'll answer no roll call either until this roll call is made. "This determination had a most deprossing effect upon the independents. They resolved themselves into bunches of twos, threes and half dozous and quictly adwitted that they had been beaten. This discouraging effect was intensified by Gale of Brown, who roso in the midst of the independent camp and said: “This side has continued this fight long enough. Itoevi- dently does not like the vote that has boen taken. If it persists in impeding the prog of business and overthrowing the authority of the majority i* is taking in its hands the rope which will hang it. [Loud cheers from the Boyd men) Stevens of Iilimore—You are not the kind of aman to find shelter on this side of the house. Gale—Iam a man who stands on his own bottom, Scott of Dawson—Thoso fellows a few days ago wanted us to appeal to the supreme court Now that we have done so this is what we get. [Cheers from the independents]. Porter of Merrick—I have no wish to con- tinue this filibustering. We have given you a dose of your own medicine. But Tl agree that if you rescind this vesolution so faras it relates to the joint convention with the sen- ate and bring in a resolution relating only to this house I'll vote with you.

The chair was white in the face, expressive partly ofdisappointment and partly of morti fication. He was ruling to please his party, though it was not apparent that ho was not also ruling according to his own convictions. His people were deserting him. Some im- portuned him to retire. To them it seemed the only manner in which to bring the un- equal strife to a close. This move spread like wildfire, and accord- ingly, after a short and hurried con ference on the part of the independent leaders, Taylor vetired from the chair. There was silence of the most impressive character in the chamber for a moment.

Lam opposed to any element in the legislature which tries to drag us into anything that is bevoud the custom and au- thority of law. This report ought to be voted down for the simple reason that we have not had from the house a respectful veport of its action upon the concurrent resolution which we sent 1o it.

Let us call for two messages and not recognize aman who for a month at least has not been in the oftice of governor. This report ought to be reported back to this committeo with instruc- tions to proceed in the regular way. If we adopt this report, we commit ourselves to the order of affairs which the house has rec- ommended. Isay this, not because there is any special reason or desiwe for the message of Governor Boyd to be put in here.by him, but I believe there are senators who know some of the coutents of that message, and 1 believe that they know that there is matter in that mes- sage which this senate would be glad to hear nimously and po glad to receive. So [ v, lot us take the position that we started out in this matter tolet the report be laid upon the table and ascertain_what the house did with our resolution asking for a concur- rent committee to wait upon Governor Boya. I think itis unwise to adopt the motion of the senator, 1t will have a far more reaching effet, than he anticipated whea it was intro- duced.’ Senator Collins suid that if the senate re- fused to adopt the motion it would take the same undignified stand toward the ex-gov- eruor of the state which the house did when it went back on its own record. If the house wished o assume an undignified attitude let 1t also assume the responsibility for the same.

The plagform of the independents is clear and explig !n demanding relief from the “chattel mors ;i..gc fleuds,” and *2 per cent sharks,” bitt the members of that party are almost’ hopblessly divided as to tho method of reacking thie much desired result. Last evening thdlouse judiciary comumt- tee gave audienve 1o ox-Senator K. E. Brown, a leading bankorot Lincoln, who argued at length. that all usury laws should be revealed and competition . would then regulate tho value of mouney. He urged that money, like bay aud grain, was worth all it would bring in the market, and held out the idea that this “frco competition” among loan brokers would have a strong tendency to reduce the rates of interest, and in the end be wuch more el ive than the most stringent usury laws that can be devise The majority of the committee were not able to agree with these views, but all efforts to uuite upon any of the numecous bills now pending were frhitless. Some of the mem- bers favor forfeiting both principal and in- terest to the borrower, while others think both ought to go to the school fund. A few advocate making the loaniug of money at usurlous rates of interest a felouy, or at least a high misdemeanor, punshable’ by both fine and imprisonment.

McHuvan, Committee, A Meritorious Clai Livcory, Neo., Feb, 4.—[Special to Tur Brr.]—One of the few claims before the legislature, that possess any real merit is the claim of Dar . Beckwith of Antelope county for $200 reward offered by Governor Thayer, for the arrest and conviction o Nicholas Foley In June, 1884, Fol entered the residence of Pomeroy Clark, threo miles south of Eigin, at the hour of widnight and shot Clark in the side, wounding him_severely. He then went on the outside, raised a ladder to the chamber window and deliberately murdered Mus, Clark by shooting her in the forenead. Not content with this devilish ceed, he stol one of Clark's horses and rode away. The governor promstly offercd £20 reward for the apprehension of the cold blooded vil- 1ain and Mr. Beckwith, who was then deputy sheriff in Antelope County, succeeded in making the arrest. The prisoner was identi- fied by Mr. Clark and a grown up daughter, and confessed bis guilt, but beforo the trial came off a mob took forcible possession of the red handed villain aud strung him up to n tree. Mr. Beckwith was not therefore sbie to claim the reward because the prisoner had not beeu “convicted by due process of law,” as required by the governor's proclamation, hence he comes to the legislature for relief. This claim will mect with no opposition in the house, To Remove County Seats, LixcoLy, Neb., Feb. 4.—[Special to Tue Bex.|—The house committee on county and township organization after a stormy session decided to report in fayor of the bill repeal- ing the law requiring a threo-fifths voto to remove a county seat, so that hereafter county seat questions will be settled by & majority VO Hhie committoe also concluded 10 1epart. & bill with & favorable recommendation, allow- ing a county to be divided by a bare majority.
