This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.
Usage guidelines
Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.
We also ask that you:
+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for

use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.
+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.
+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other

PREFACE.
Tlie Blue Book for 1882, the twenty -fir at annual edition, Is herewith pre-
sented, with the hope that it may be as favorably received as have been those
of previous years. No great change hap been made from the edition of
1881, though several new features of general interest have been added,
among which is the census of the state for 1830, in anew and particularly
interesting form, A table showing the distance of each post-office in the state
from the capital, a lint of banks doing bnginese in Wisconsin and other
minor features will ho found useful. The compiler has carefully revised the
i*ules and orders, and "annals" of the legislature, and he believes that
they are are now correct. In the coUeetioii of so many names and figures as
appear in a work of this character, it would be strange, Indeed, if some
errors were not found. But so much pains have heen taken to guard against
them hy careful proof-reading, and hy applying to several sources forthesamo
Itiformation, in order to compare results, that the compiler is confident that
euch mistakes as may he found will, in no essential degree, impair the value
of the work as a book of reference. Errors there doubtless are, and tho
compiler will regard it as a particular favor if his attention he called to any
error in name, figure or date, that its repetition may be avoided in future
publications.
The illustrations in this edition have been printed on a lighter quality of
paper than has been customary, as it has been found that the heavier illus-
trations cause the backs of the book to break very quickly. The views of
the State Hospital for Insane and of the Washburn Observatoiy are new,
and show improvements lately made on those institutions.
The compiler would respectfully suggest to the legislature that it should
authorize new stereotype plates of the first half of the book, as those now
in use are nearly worn out, and have been so often patched that they are no
longer fit for good work. Moreover, the plates owned by the state should in-
clude not only those now used by it, but should take in the "Legislative
Annals" and lists of state officers, for the composition of which the state
now pays annually, although there is little or no change made from year to
year. An index to each department ghould immediately follow such depart-
ment; but this cannot well be arranged unless the manufacture of new plates
is authorized, while if such plates arc provided for, the state could own at
least £03 pages for which no pay for composition need be made after the
first year, thereby effecting a great saving in time and money to the state.
The compiler believes, that iu view of the great and yearly increasing de-
maud made upon members of the legislature for copies of the Blue Book,
and in view of the information it contains, which causes it to be read and
studied by all classes of the people, that the propriety, if not necessity, of
providing for a more extended distribution in the future, is fully apparent,

IMPORTANCE OF RULES.
SECTION I.
DIPOBTiJIOB OV ADBZIUNO TO BULXf.
Hr. Okslow, the ablest among the Speakers of the Honee of Commons,
used to saj : ** It was a maxim he had often heard when he was a young man,
from old and experienced Members, that nothing tended more to throw power
into the hands of the administration, and those who acted with the mfOority
of the House of Commons, than a neglect of or departure ft-om, the rules of
proceeding; that these forms, as instituted by our ancestors, operated as a
check and control on the actions of the minority, and that they were in many
instances, a shelter and protection to the minority, against the attempts of
power/* So far the maxim is certainly true, and it is founded in good sense,
that as it is always in the power of the minority, by their numbers, to stop
any improper measures proposed on the part of their opponents, the only
weapons by which the minority can defend themselves against similar at-
tempts fh>m those in power, are the forms and rules of proceeding which
have been adopted as they were found necessary, from time to time, and are
become the law of the House; by a strict adherence to which, the weaker
party can only be protected firom those irregularities and abuses which these
forms were intended to chock, and which the wantonness of power is but too
often apt to suggest to large and successful minorities. 2 HaiB.^ 171, 172.
And whether these forms be in all cases the most rational or not, is really
not of so great importance. H is much more material that there should be
a rule to go by, than what that rule is ; that there may be a uniformity of pn^
ceeding in business, not subject to the caprice of the Speaker, or captious-
noss of the Members. It is very material that order, decency and regularity
be preserved In a dignified public body. 2 JTote., 148.

SECTION in.
The privileges of Members of Parliament, from smsll and obscnre begin-
nings, have been advancing for centuries with a firm and never yielding
pace. Claims seem to have been brought forward from time to time, and re-
peated, till some example of their admission anabled them to bnlld law on
that example. We can only, therefore, state the points of progression at
which they now are. It is now acknowledged, let. That they are at all times
exempted from qnestion elsewhere for anything said in their own House ; that
during the time of privilege, 2d. Neither a Member himself, hisi wife, nor his
servants, (familarics sui,) for any matter of their own, may be* arrested on
mesne process, in any civil suit: 3d. Nor be detained under execution, though
levied before time of privilege: 4th. Nor impleaded, cited or subpoenaed in
any court: 5th. Nor summoned as a witness or Juror: 6th. Nor may their
lands or goods be distrained: 7th. Nor their persons assaulted, or characters
traduced. And the period of time covered by privilege, before and after the
session, with the practice of short prorogations under the connivance of the
Crown, amounts in fact to a perpetusl protection against the course of Justice.
In one instance, indeed, it has been relaxed by the 10 G. 8, c. 60, which per-
mits Judiciary proceedings to go on against them. That these privileges must
be continually progressive, seems to result from their rejecting all definition
of them; the doctrine being that ** their dignity and independence are pre*
served by keeping their privileges indefinite; *and that the maxims upon
which they proceed, together with the method of proceeding, rest entirely in
their own breast, and are not defined and ascertained by any particular stated
Uws.'" 1 ^^acitor., 163, 164.
[It was probably from this view of the encroaching character of privilege
that the framers of our constitution, in their care to provide that the law shall

necesBary for givliig ftill effect to the enjoyment of thli priTilege. No incli
law being jet made, it seems to stand at present on the following grounds:
1. The act of arrest is void, ab initio.* 2. The member arrested may be dis-
charged on motion, 1 2?/., 166; 3 Stra.^ 993; or by habeas corpus under the
Federal or State authority, as the case may be; or by a writ of pririlege out
of the Chancery, 2 8tra.t 989, in those States which have adopted that part of
the laws of England. Orders qf the House <ff Commons^ 1550, February 20.
S. The arrest being unlawful, is a trespass for which the^officer and others
concerned are liable to action and indictment in the ordinary courts of Jus-
tice, as in other cases of unauthorized arrest. 4. The court before which the
process is returnable is bound to act as In other cases of unauthorized pro-
ceeding, and liable also, as in other similar cases, to have their proceedings
stayed or corrected by the superior courts.]
[The time necessary for going to, and returning from, Congress, not being
defined, it will, of course, be Judged of in every particular case by those who
will have to decide the case.] While privilege was understood in England to
extend, as it does here, only to exemption from arrest, eundo, moranda, et
redeundo, the House of Commons themselves 'decided that ** a convenient
time was to be understood." (1580,) 1 Rals.t 99, 100. Nor is the law so strict in
point of time as to require the party to set out immediately on his return,
but allows him time to settle his private alllairs, and to prepare for his Jour-
ney; and does not even scan his road very nicely, nor forfeit his protection
for a little deviation from that which is most direct; some necessity perhaps
constraining him to it. 2 Stra., 986, 987.
This privilege from arrest, privileges of course against all process, the diso-
bedience to which is punishable by an attachment of the person; as a snb-
pcena ad respondendum, or, testificandum, or a summons on a Jury; and
with reason, because a member has superior duty to perform in another
place. [When a representative is withdrawn from his seat by summons, the
40,000i;)eople whom he represents, lose their voice in debate and vote, as they
do on his voluntary absence; when a Senator is withdrawn by summons, his
State loses half its voice in debate and vote, as it does on his voluntary ab-
sence. The enormous disparity of evil admits no comparison.]
[So far there will probably be no difference of opinion as to the privileges of
the two Houses of Congress ; but in the following cases it is otherwise. In
December, 1795, the House of Bepresentatives committed two persons of the
name of Handall and Whitney, for attempting to corrupt the integrity of cer-
tain membera, which they considered as a contempt and breach of the privi-
leges of the House; and the facts being proved, Whitney was detained in con-
finement a fortnight, and Kandall three weeks, and was reprimanded by the
Speaker. In March, 1796, the House of Bepresentatives voted a challenge
given to a member of their House to be a breach of the privileges of the
House; but satisfactory apologies and acknowledgments being made, no ftir-
ther proceeding was had. The editor of the Aurora having. In his paper of
February 19, 1800, inserted some paragraphs defamatory of the Senate, and

fafled In his appearance, he was ordered to bo committed. Tn debating the
legality of this order, it was insisted, m snppon oi it, that everj man, by the
law of nature, and every body of men, possesses the right of self-defence:
that all pablic ftinctionarles are essentially invested with the powers of sclf-
prcservation ; that they have an inherent right to do all acts necessary to keep
themselves in a condition to discharge the trasts confided to them ; that when*
ever authorities are given, the means of carrying them into execution are
given by necessary Implication ; that thus we see the British Parliament exer-
cise the right of punishing contempts; all the State Legislatures exercise the
same power, and every court does the same; that, if we have it not, we sit at
the mercy of every intruder who may enter our doors or gallery, and, by noise
and tumult, render proceeding In business impracticable ; that if our tranquil-
lity is to be perpetually disturbed by newspaper defamation, it will not be pos-
sible to exercise our functions with the requisite coolness and deliberation;
and that we must, therefore, have a power to punish these disturbers of oni
peace and proceedings. To this it was answered, that the Parliament and
courts of England have cognizance of contempts by the express provisions
of their law; that the State Legislatures have equal authority, because their
powers are plenary ; they represent their constituents completely, and possess
all their powers, except such as their Constitutions have expressly denied
them; that the courts of the several States have the same powers by the laws
of their States, and those of the Federal Government by the same State laws
adopted in each State, by a law of Congress ; that none of these bodies, there-
fore, derive those powers from natural or necessary right, but from express
aw ; that Congress have no such natural or necessary power, nor any powers
but such as are given them by the Constitution; that that has given them,
directly, exemption from personal arrest, exemption from question elsewhere
for what is said In their House, and power over their ovm members and pro-
ceedings; for these no ftirther law is necessary, the Constitution being the
law; that, moreover, by that article of the Constitution which authorizes
them ** to make all laws necessary and proper for carrying into execution the
power vested by the Constitution in them," they may provide by law for an
undisturbed exercise of their functions, e. g., for the punishment of contempt,
of afftays or tumult in their presence, etc., but, till the law be made, it does
not exist; and does not exist, from their own neglect; that in the mean time,
however, they are not unprotected, the ordinary magistrates and courts of
law being open and competent to punish all unjustifiable disturbances or de-
famations, and even their own sergeant, who may appoint deputies ad tibU
turn to aid .him, 3 Orey^ 59, 147, 255, is equal to small disturbances; that tn
requiring a previous law, the Constitution had regard to the inviolabitity of
the citizen, as well as of the member; as, should one House, in the regular
form of a bill, aim at too broad privileges, it may be checked by the other, and
both by the President; and also as, the law being promulgated, the citizen
wUl know how to avoid offense. But if one branch may assume its own prlvl*
leges without control; if it may do it on the spur of the occasion, conceal the
law In its own breast, and after the fact committed, make its sentence both the

aw and the jadgment on that fact, if the offense is to be kept undefined, and
to be declared only ex re nata^ and according to the passion of the moment,
and there be no limitation either in the manner or measure of the pnnish-
ment, the condition of the citizen will be perilons indeed. Which of these
doctrines is to prevail, time will decide. Where there is no fixed law, the
jndfnnent on any' particular case, is the law of that single case only, and dies
with it. When a new and even similar case arises, the Judgment which is to
make and at the same time apply the law, is open to question and considera-
tion, as are all new laws. Perhaps Congress, in the mean time, in their care
for the safety of the citizen as well as that for their own protection, may de-
clare by law what is necessary and proper to enable them to carry into exo-
eution the powers vested in them, and thereby hang up a rule for the inspec-
tion of all, which may direct the conduct of the citizen, and- at the same
lime test the Judgments they shall themselves pronounce in their own case.]
Privilege from arrest takes place by force of the election; and before a re-
turn be made a member elected may be named of a committee, and is to
every extent a member, except that he cannot vote until he is sworn. Me-

On complaint of a breach of privilege, the party may either be summoned

The privilege of a member is the privilege of the House. If the member
waive it without leave, it is a ground for punishing him, but cannot in effect
waive the privilege of the House. 8 Orey^ 140, 222.
For any speech or debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in
any other place. Conet, U. 5., I, 6, 8, P. Protest of the Commone to James

prlvHoged as to the mode of proceeding. The case is first to be laid befor«
the House, that it may Judge of the fact and of the grounds of the accusation,
and how far forth the manner of the trial mky concern their privilege; other-
wise it would be in the power of the other branches of government, and even
of every private man, under pretense of treason, etc.. to take any man fh)m
his service in the Ilonse, and so as many, one after another, as would make
the House what he pleaseth. Dee, qf Com, on the King's declaring Sir John
ffotham a traitor, 4 Rushw.^ 666. So when a member stood indicted for
felony, it was ac^udged that he ought to remain of the House till conviction:
for it may be any man's case who is guiltless, to be accused and indicted of
felony or the like crime. 23 El, 1580; D'EweSy 283 col, 1 ; Lex Pari., 133.
When it is found necessary for the public service to put a member under
arrest, or when on any public inquiry, matter comes out which may lead to
affect the person of a member, it is the practice immediately to acquaint the
House, that they may know the reasons for such a proceeding, and take such
steps as they think proper. 2 Hate,, 259. Of which see many examples. lb.,
256, 257, 258. But the communication is subsequent to the arrest. 1 Blacket,
167.
It is highly expedient, says Hatsel, for the due preservation of the privileges
of the separate branches of the Legislature, that neither should encroach on
the other or interfere in any matter depending before them, so as to preclude,
or even influence that ft-eedom of debate, which is essential to a free council.
They are therefore not to take notice of any bills or other matters depending
or of votes that have been given, or of speeches which have been held, by the
members of either of the other branches of the Legislature, until the same
have been communicated to them in the usual parliamentary manner. 2 Hate.,
252. 4/n«^, 15. Seld, Jud,, tS, Thus the King's taking notice of the bill for
suppressing soldiers, depending before the House; his proposing a provis-
ional clause for a bill before it was presented to him by the two Houses; his
expressing displeasure against some persons for matters moved in parliament
during the debate and preparation of a bill, were breaches of privilege; 2
Naleon, 347; and in 1783, December 17, it was declared a breach of fhndamental
privileges, etc., to report any opinion or pretended opinion of the King on
any bill or proceeding depending in either House of Parliament, with a view
to influence the votes of the members. 8 Hate,, 251, 6,

the members proposing him conduct him to the chair. But if there be ob-
jection, or another proposed, a question is put by the clerk. 2 2iat8.t 109. As

A joint address of both Houses of Parliament is read by the Speaker of the
House of Lords. It may be attended by both Houses in a body, or by a comr

Standing committees, as of privileges and elections, etc., are usually
appointed at the first meeting, to continue through the session. The person
first named is generally permitted to act as chairman. But this is a matter of
courtesy; every committee having a right to elect their own chairman, who
presides over them, puts questions, and reports their proceedings to the
House. 4 Irut., 11, 12; Scob., 9; 1 Grey, 122.
At these committees the members are to speak standing, and not sitting;
though there Is reason to coi^jecture it was formerly otherwise. D^Ewea^ 630,

COHXITTEB OV THB WHOLX.
The speech, message, and other matters of great concernment, are usually
referred to a commitiee of the whole House, (6 (7r«y,811), where general prin-
ciples are digested in the form of resolutions, which are debated and amend-
ed till they get into a shape which meets the approbation of a minority. These
being reported and confirmed by the House, are then referred to one or more
select committees, according as the subject divides itself into one or more
bills. Scob., 86, 44. Propositions for any charge on the people are especially
to be first made in a committee of the whole. 8 Hats., 127. The sense of the
whole is better taken in committee, because in all committees every one
speaks as often as he pleases. Scob,-, 49. They generally acquiesce in the
chairman named by the Speaker; but, as well as all other committees, have a
right to elect one, some member, by consent, putting the question. Scob,, 30;
8 Grey, 301. The form of going Arom the House into committee, is for the
Speaker, on motion, to put the question that the House do now resolve itself
into a Committee of the Whole, to take into consideration such a matter,
naming it. If determined in the affirmative, he leaves the chair and takes a
seat elsewhere, as any other member; and the person appointed chairman

■eats himself at the clerk's table. Scob.W, Their qnomm is the same as
that of the House, and if a defect happens, the chairman, on a motion and
question, rises, the Speaker resumes the chair, and the chairman can make
no other report than to inform the House of the cause of their dissolution.
If a message is announced during a committee, the Speaker takes the chair,
and receives it, because the committee cannot. 2 JSatt,^ 125, 126.
In a Committee of the Whole, the tellers on a division, differing as to num-
bers, great heats and concision arose, and danger of a decision hj the sword.
The Speaker took the chair, the mace was forcibly laid on the table; where-
upon the members retiring to their places, the Speaker told the House **he
had taken the chair without an order to bring the House into order.** Some
excepted against it; but it was generally approved, as the only expedient to
suppress the disorder. And every member was required, standing up in his
place, to engage that he would proceed no further, in consequence of what
had happened in the grand committee, which was done. 8 Grey, 128.
A Committee of the Whole being broken up in disorder, and the chair re-
sumed by the Speaker without an order, the House was acUoumed. The next
day the committee was considered as thereby dissolved, and the subject again
before the House; and it was decided in the House, without returning into
conunittee. 3 Orey, 180.
No previous question can be put in a committee, nor can this committee
adjourn as others may; but if their business is unfinished, they rise, on a
question, the House is resumed, and the chairman reports that the Committee
of the Whole have, according to order, had under their consideration such a
matter, and have made progress therein; but not having had time to go
through the same, have directed him to ask leave to sit again. Whereupon a
question Is put upon their having leave, and on the time the House will again
resolve itself into a committee. Scob.., 88. But if they have gone through
the matter referred to them, a member moves that the committee may rise,
and the chairman report their proceedings to the House ; which being resolved,
the chairman rises, the speaker resumes the chair, the chairman informs him
that the committcee have gone through the business referred to them, and
that he is ready to make report when the House shall think proper to receive
it. If the House have time to receive it, there is usually a cry of **Now,
now,** whereupon he makes the report; but if it be late, the cry is, **To-mor-
sow, to-morrow,** or ** Monday,** etc. ; or a motion is made to that effect, and
a question put, that it be received to-morrow, etc. Scob., 88.
In other things the rules of proceedings are to be the same as in the House.

giyen blank. 8 (7r#y, 51.
When any person is examined before a committee, or at tiie bar of the
House, any member wishing to ask the person a question, must address it to
the Speaker or chairman, who repeats the question to the person, or says to
liim, **you hear the question—answer it." But if the propriety of the ques-
tion be objected to, the Speaker directs the witness, counsel and parties to
withdraw, for no question can be moyed or put, or debated, while they are
there. 2HaU.y 108. Sometimes the questions are preyiously settled in writ-
ing before the witness enteirs. Ih. , 106, 107 ; 8 Grey^ 64. The questions asked
must be entered in the Journals. 8 Orey^ 81. But the testimony given in
answer before the House is neyer written down; but before a committee it
must be, for the information of the House, who are not present to hear it.
7 Grey, 52, 834.
If either House have occasion for the presence of a person in custody of the
other, they ask the other their leave that he may be brought up to them in
custody. 8 irate., 62.
A Member, in his place, gives information to the House of what he knows
of any matter under hearing at the bar. Jour, H. qf C7., Jan. 22; 1744-^45.
Either House may request, but not demand, the attendance of a member of
the other. They are to make the request by message to the other House, and
to express clearly the purpose of attendance, that no improper subject of ex-
amination may be tendered to him. The House then giyes leave to the Mem-
ber to attend, if he chooses it; waiting first to know from the Member him-
self whether he chooses to attend, till which they do not take the message
into consideration. But when the Peers are sitting as a court of criminal Ju-
dicature, they may order attendance, unless where it be a case of impeach-
ment by the Commons. There, it is to be a request. 8 HaU.^ 17 ; 9 Orey, 806,

Counsel are to be heard only on private, not on public bills, and on such
points of law only as the House shall direct. 10 Grey, 61.
SECTION XIV.
ABRANOEUBNT OV BU8INB8B.
The Speaker is not precisely bound to any rules as to what bills or other
matter shall be first taken up; but is left to his own discretion, unless the
House on the question decide to take up a particular subject. Hakew,, 186.
A settled order of business is, however, necessary for the government of
the presiding person, and to restrain individual members Arom calling up fa-
vorite measures, or matters under their special patronage, out of their Just
turn. It is useful also for directing the discretion of the House, when they
are moved to take up a particular matter, to the prejudice of the others hay*
ing priority of right to their attention in the general order of business.
[In Senate, the bills and other papers which are in possession of the House,
and in a state to be acted on, are arranged every morning, and brought on ia
the following order:]

[1. Bills ready for a second reading are read, that they may be referred to
committees and so be pnt under way. Bat if, on their being read, no motion
is made for commitment, they are then laid on the table in the general file, to
be taken np in their Jnst tarn.]
[2. After 12 o'clock, bills ready for it are pat on their passage.]
[3. Reports in possession of the Honse, which offer gronnds for a bill, are
to be taken np, that the bill may be ordered in.]
[4. Bills or other matters before the Hoase, and anfinished on the preceding
day, whether taken np in tarn or on special order, are entitled to be resomed
and passed on through their present stage.]
[5. These matters being dispatched, for preparing and expediting business,
the general file of bills and other papers is then taken up, and each article of
It is brought on according to its seniority, reckoned by the date of its first
introduction to the House. Reports on bills belong to the dates of their bill.]
(The arrangement of the business of the Senate is now as follows:]
[1. Motions previously submitted.]
[2. Reports of Committees previously made.]
[3. Bills firom the House of Representatives, and those introduced on leave,
which have been read the first time, are read the second time; and if not
referred to a committee, are considered in Committee of the Whole, and pro-
ceeded with as in other cases.]
[4. After twelve o'clock, engrossed bills of the Senate, and bills of th«
House of Representatives, on third reading are put on their passage.]
[6. If the above are finished before one o'clock, the general file of bills,
consisting of those reported from committees on the second reading, and
those reported from committees after having been referred, are taken up In
the order in which they were reported to the Senate by the respective com-
mittees.]
[8. At one o'clock, if no business be pending, or if no motion be called to
proceed to other business, the special orders are called, at the head of which
stands the unfinished business of the preceding day.]
[In this way we do not waste our time in debating what shall be taken np.
We do one thing at a time; follow up a subject while it is ft-esh, and till itia
done with, clear the House of business gradatim as it is brought on, and
prevent to a certain degree, its imn^ense accumulation towards the close of
the session.]
[Arrangements, however, can only take hold of matters in possession of
the House. New matter may be moved at any time when no question is be-
fore the House. Such are original motions and reports on bills. Such are
bills trom the other House, which are received at all times, and receive their
first reading as soon as the question then before the House is disposed of;
and bills brought In on leave, which are read first whenever presented. So
messages fi'om the other House respecting amendments to bUls are taken np
as soon as the House is clear of a question, unless they require to be printed
for better consideration. Orders of the day may be called for even when an-
other qnention is before the House.

When the Speaker is seated in his chair, every member if to sit in his

When any member means to speak, he is to stand up in his place, uncov-
ered, and to address himself, not to the House, or any particular member, but
to the speaker, who calls him by his name, that the House may take notice
who it is that speaks. 8cob,, 6 ; D'Ewes, 487 ; co/. 1 ; 2 EaU,, 77 ; 4 Grey, 66 ;

[In Senate, every member, when he speaks, shall address the chair, stand-

When a member stands up to speak, no question is to be put, but he is to
be heard unless the House overrules him. 4 Orey, 890; 6 Grey, 6, 143.
If two or more rise to speak nearly together, the Speaker determines who
was first up, and calls him by name ; whereupon he proceeds, unless he volun-
tarily sits down and gives way to the other. But sometimes the House does
not acquiesce in the Speaker*s decision, in which case the question is put,

2 irate., 171.
Nevertheless, if a member finds that it is not the inclination of the House
to hear him, and that by conversation or any other noise they endeavor to
drown his voice, it is his most prudent way to submit to the pleasure of the
House, and sit down ; for it scarcely ever happens that they are guilty of tliis
piece of ill manners without sufficient reason, or inattentive to a member
who says anything worth their hearing. 2 ffata.., 77, 78.
If repeated calls do not produce order, the Speaker may call by his name
any member obstinately persisting in irregularity; whereupon the House
may require the member to withdraw. He is then to be heard in exculpa-
tion, and to withdraw. Then the Speaker states the offense committed, and
the House considers the degree of punishment they will inflict. 8 S(U8., 167,
7, 8, 172.
For instances of assaults and affrays in the House of Commons, and the
proceedings thereon, see 1 Fet, Misc., 82; 8 Orey^ 128; 4 Qrey^ 828; 5 Orey,
882; 6 Orey^ 264; 10 Grey^ 8. Whenever warm words or an assault have
passed between members, the House, for the protection of their members,
requires them to declare in thefr places not to prosecute any quarrel, (8 Orey,
127, 293; 5 Orey^ 280;) or orders them to attend the Speaker, who is to accom-
modate their differences, and report to the House, (8 Grey. 419;) and they are
put under restraint if they refuse, or until they do. 9 Grey, 234, 312.
Disorderly words are not to be noticed till the member has finished his
speech. 6 Ony^ 856; 6 O'r^, 60. Then the person objecting to them, and
desiring them to be taken down by the clerk at the table, must repeat them.
The Speaker then may direct the clerk to take them down in his minutes;
but if he thinks them not disorderly, he delays the direction. If the call
becomes pretty general, he orders the clerk to take them down, as stated by
the objecting member. They are then part of his minutes, and when read to
the offending member, he may deny they were his words, and the House must
then decide by a question whether they are his words or not. Then the
member may justify them, or explain the sense in which he used them, or
apologize. If the House is satisfied, no further proceeding is necessary.
But if two members still insist to take the sense of the House, the member
must withdraw before that question is stated, and then the sense of the
House is to be taken. 2 JTiste., 199 ; 4 Qrey^ 170 ; 6 Grey, 59. When any mem-
ber has spoken, or other business intervenes, after offensive words spoken,
they cannot be taken notice of for censure. And this is for the common
security of all, and to prevent mistakes which must happen if words are not
taken down immediately. Formerly they might be taken down at any time
the same day. 8 ^ote ., 196; If em, in Eakew.t 71 ; 8 Grey^ 48; 9 Grey^ 614.

It is a breach of order in debate to notice what has been said on the same
sabject in the other House, on the particular votes or majorities on it there;
because the opinion of each House should be left to its own independency,
not to be influenced by the proceedings of the other; and the quoting them
might beget reflections leading to a misunderstanding between the two

Neither House can exercise any authority over a member op officer of the

ishment to them. Where the complaint is of words disrespectfully spoken
by a member of another House, it is difficult to obtain punishment, because
of the rules supposed necessary to be observed (as to the immediate noting
down of words) for the security of members. Therefore it is the duty of the
House, and more particularly of the Speaker, to interfere Immediately, and
not to permit expressions to go unnoticed which may give a ground of com-
plaint to the other House, and introduce proceedings and mutual accusations
between the two Houses, which can hardly be terminated without difficulty
and disorder. 8 Hats.^ 51.
No member may be present when a bill or any business concerning himself
is debating; nor is any member to speak to the merits of it till he withdraws.
2 ffats.^ 219. The rule is, that if a charge against a member arise out of a re-
port of a committee, or examination of witnesses in the House, as the member
knows from that to what points he is to direct his exculpation, he may be
heard to those points, before any question is moved or stated against him.
He is then to be heard, and withdraw before any question is moved. But if
the question itself is the charge, as for breach of order, or matter arising in
the debate, then the charge must bo stated, (that is the question must be
moved,) himself heard and then to withdraw. 2 BUts.^ 121, 122.
Where the private interests of a member are concerned in a bUl or question.
ho is to withdraw. And where such an interest has appeared, his voice har
been disallowed, even after a division. In a case so contrary, not only to thi
laws of decency, but to the ftindamental principle of the social compact which
denies to any man to be a judge in his own cause, it is for the honor of the
House that this rule, of immemorial observance, should be strictly adhered
to. 2 HaU.^ 119, 121 ; 6 Orey, 368.
No member is to come into the House with his head covered, nor to remove

[By rules of the Senate, on motion made and seconded to shut the doors of
the Senate on the discussion of any business which may, in the opinion of a
member, require secrecy, the President shall direct the gallery to be cleared;

[No motion shall be deemed in order to admit any pereon or persons what-
soever within the doors of the Senate Chamber to present any petition, me-

The only case where a member has a right to insist on anything, is where
he calls for the execution of a subsisting order of the House. Here, there hay-
itkg been already a resolution, any person has a right to insist that the
Speaker, or any other whose duty it is, shall carry it into execuiion; and no
debate or deli^ can be had on it. Thus any member has a right to have the
House or gallery cleared of strangers, an order existing for that purpose; or
to have the House told where there is not a quorum present 2 EaU.^ 87, 129.
How far an order of the House is binding, see Hahew,^ 892.
But where an order is made that any particular matter be taken up on a
particular day, there a question is to be put, when it is called for, whether the
House will now proceed to that matter? Where orders of the day are on im-
portant or interesting matter, they ought not to be proceeded on till an hour
at which the House is usually full, {which in Senate is at noon,}
Orders of the day may be discharged at any time, and a new one made for
a different day. 8 Orey^ 48, 818.
When a session is drawn to a close, and the important bills are all brought
in, the House, in order to prevent interruption by farther unimportant biUs,
sometimes come to a resolution that no new bUl be brought in, except it be
sent from the other house. 8 Grey, 156.

A petition prays something. A remonstrance has no prayer. 1 Orey^ 6b.
Petitions must be subscribed by the petitioners,C9eo&., 87; X. Parl.^ e. 22;
9 Grey, 862), unless they are attending; (1 Grey, 401), or unable to sign, and
averred by a member, (3 Grey, 418.) But a petition not subscribed, but
which the member presenting it affirmed to be all in the handwriting of the
petitioner, and his name written in the beginning, was on the question (Mar.
14, 18C0) receiyed by the Senate. The averment of a member, or of somebody
without doors, that they know the handwriting of the petitioners, is necessa-
ry, if it be questioned. 6 Grey, 86. It must be presented by a member, not by
the petitioners, and must be opened by him holding it in his hand. 10 Grey, 57.
[Before any petition or memorial addressed to the Senate shall be received
and read at the table, whether the same shall be introdaced by the President
or a member, a brief statement of the contents of the petition or memorial
shall verbally be made by the introducer. Side 24.]
Ilegularly, a motion for receiving it must be made and seconded, and s
question put, whether it shall be received? But a cry ft*om the House of " Re-
ceived,'^ or even its silence, dispenses with the formality of this question; it
is then to be read at the table, and disposed of.
SECTION XX.
When a motion has been made, it is not to be put to the question, or de-
bated until it is seconded. Scob., 21.
[The Senate say. No motion shall be debated until the same shall be sec-

It is then, and not till then, in possession of the House, and cannot be
withdrawn but by leave of the House. It is to be put into writing. If the
House or Speaker require it, and must be read to the House by the Speaker
as often as any member desires it for his information. 2 EaU., 83.

It might be asked, whether a motion for acyoumment or for the orders of

it is a breach of order in another to interrupt him, unless by calling him to

or for the question, by gentlemen from their seats, is not a motion. No mo*

When the Honse commands, it is by an "■ order.^^ But facts, principles,
and their own opinions and purposes, are expressed in the form of resolutions.
[A resolution for an allowance of money to the clerks being moved, it was
objected to as not in order, and so ruled by the Chair; but on an appeal to
the Senate, (i. e., a call for their sense by the President, on account of doubt
in his mind, according to rule 36,) the decision was overruled. Jour. Sen.,
June 1, 1796. I presume the doubt was, whether an allowance of money could
be made otherwise than by bill.]
SECTION XXII.

When a bill is first presented, the Clerk reads it at the table, and hands it

read a second time? then sitting down to give an opening for objections. If
none be made, ho rises again, and puts the question, whether it shall be read
a second time? Hakew.y 137, 141. A bill cannot be amended on the first

The second reading must regularly be on another day. Eakew.^ 143. It la

Speaker, rising, states to the Hoose the title of the bill; that this is the sec-
ond time of reading it; and that the question will be, whether it shall be com'
mitted or engrossed and read a third time f But if the bill came f^om the other
House, as it always comes engrossed, he states that the question will be,
whether it shall be read a third time, and before he has so reported the state
of the bill, no one is to speak to it. Hakettf., 143, 146.
[In the Senate of the United States, the President reports the title of the
bill ; that this is the second time of reading it; that it is now to be considered
as in a committee of the whole ; and the question will be, whether it shall be
read a third time? or that it may be referred to a special committee?] ,
SECTION XXVI.
BILLS, OOMMITMBNT.
If on motion and question it be decided that the bill shall be committed, it
may then be moved to be referred to Committee of the Whole House, or to a
special committee. If the latter, the Speaker proceeds to name the committee.
Any member also may name a single person, and the Clerk is to write him
down as of the committee. But the House have a controlling power over the
names and number, if a question be moved against any one; and may in any
case put in and put out whom they please.
Those who take exceptions to some particulars in the bill are to be of the
committee, but none who speak directly against the body of the bill, for he
that would totally destroy will not amend it, (Hakew., 146; Town.^ col. 208;
D^EweB^ 634; col. 2; 8cob.^ 47;) or, as it is said, (5 Orey^ 145,) the child is not
to be put to a nurse that cares not for it, (6 Orey^ 873). It is therefore a con>
stant rule ** that no man is to be employed in any matter who has declared
himself against it.^^ And when any member who Is against the bill hears
himself named of its committee, he ought to ask to be excused. Thus (March
7. 1606) Mr. Hadley was, on the question being put, excused from being of a
committee, declaring himself to be against the matter itself, 8coh.^ 46.
[No bill shall be committed or amended until it shall have been twice read;
after which it may be referred to a committee. Rule 27.]
[In the appointment of the standing committees, the Senate will proceed,
by ballot, severally to appoint the Chairman of each committee ; and then, by
one ballot, the other members necessary to complete the same ; and a majority
of the whole number of votes given shall be necessary to the choice of a
Chairman of a standing committee. All other committees shall be appointed
by ballot, and a plurality of votes shall make a choice. When any subject or
matter shall have been referred to a committee, any other subject or matter of
ft similar nature may, on motion, be referred to such committee. Bul4 34.]

The Clerk may deliver the bill to any member of the committee, {Town.^ col

In some cases the House has ordered a committee to withdraw immediate
ly into the Committee Chamber and act on and bring back the bill, sitting in

the House has not ordered time and place for them, (6 (Trey, 870;) bnt they

A mt^ority of the committee constitutes a quorum for business. EUyngeU
Method of Passing Bills, 11.
Any member of the House may be present at any select committee, but
cannot vote, and must give place to all of the committee, and sit below them.
Elsynge^ 12; Scab., 49.
The committee have full power over the bill or other paper committed to
them, except that they cannot change the title or subject. 8 Grey, 228.
The paper before a committee, whether select or of the whole, may be a
bill, resolutions, draught of an address, etc., and it may either originate with
them or be referred to them. In every case the whole paper is read first by
the clerk, and then by the chairman, by paragraphs, {8coh., 49,) pausing at
the end of each paragraph, and putting questions for amending, if pro-
posed. In the case of resolutions on distinct subjects, originating with
themselves, a question is put on each separately, as amended or unamended,
and no final question on the whole, ( 3 Hats., 276;) but if they relate to the
same subject, a question is put on the whole. If it be a bill, draught of an
address, or other paper originating with them, they proceed by paragraphs ;
putting questions for amending either by insertion or striking out, if pro-
posed; but no question on agreeing to the paragraphs separately; this is
reserved to the close, when a question is put on the whole for agreeing to it
as amended or unamended. But if it be a paper referred to them, they pro-
ceed to put questions of amendment, if proposed, but no final question on
the whole, because all parts of the paper, having been adopted by the House,
stand, of course, unless altered or struck out by a vote. Even if they are
opposed to the whole paper, and think it cannot be made good by amend-
ments, they cannot reject it, but must report it back to the House without
amendments and there make their opposition.
The natural order in considering and amending any paper is, to begin at
the beginning, and proceed through it by paragraphs, and this order is so
strictly adhered to in Parliament, that when a latter part has been amended,
you cannot recur back and make any alterations in a former part. 2 Hats., 90.
In numerous assemblies this restraint is doubtless important. [Bnt in the
Senate of the United States, though in the main we consider and amend the
paragraphs in their natural order, yet recurrences are indulged; and they
seem, on the whole, in that small body, to produce advantages overweighing
their inconveniences.]
To this natural order of beginning at the beginning, there is a single exccpi

tion found in parliamentary usage. When a bOl is taken np in committee, oi
on its second reading, they postpone the preamble till the other parts of the
bUl are gone through. The reason is, that on consideration of the body of the
bill, such alterations may therein be made as may also occasion the alteration
of the preamble. 8cob 50; 7 Orey^ 431.
On this head the following case occnred in the Senate, March 6, 1800: A
resolution which had no preamble having been unready amended by the House
0O that a few words only of the original remained in it, a motion was made
to prefix 8 preamble, which having an aspect very dififerent ttom the resolu-
tion, the mover intimated that he should afterwards propose a corresponding
amendment in the body of the resolution. It was objected that a preamble
could not be taken up tOl the body of the resolution is done with; but the
preamble was received, because we are in fact through the body of the reso-
lution; we have amended that as far as amendments have offered, and, in-
deed, till little of the original is left. It is the proper time, therefore, to con-
sider a preamble; and whether the one offered be consistent with the resolu-
tion is for the House to determine. The mover, indeed, has intimated that
he shall offer a subsequent proposition for the body of the resolution ; but
the house is not in possession of it; it remains in his breast, and may be
withheld. The rules of the House can only operate on what is before them.
[The practice of the Senate, too, allows recurrences backwards and Ibrwards,
for the purposes of amendment, not permitting amendments in a subse-
quent to preclude those in a prior part, or e converso.']
When the committee is through the whole, a member moves that the com-
mittee may rise, and the chairman report the paper to the House, with or
without amendments, as the case may be. 2 ffatt,^ 289, 2:)2; 8cob.^ 58; S
ffats., 290; 8 Scob., 50.
When a vote is once passed in a committee, it cannot be altered but by the
House, their votes being binding on themselves. 1607, June 4.
The committee may not erase, interline, or blot the bill itself; but must,
in a paper by itself, set down the amendments, stating the words which are
to be inserted or omitted, {Scob.^ 50,) and where, by references to the page,
line, and word of the bill. Scob.<, 50.

The chairman of the committee, standing in his place, informs the House
that the committee, to whom was referred such a bill, have, according to or-
der, had the same under consideration, and have directed him to report the
same without any amendment or with sundry amendments, (as the case may
be,) which he is ready to do when the House pleases to receive it. And he
or any other may move that it be now received ; but the cry of " now, now,"
from the House, generally dispenses with the formality of a motion and
question. He then reads the amendment, with the coherence in the bill, and
opens the alterations and the reasons of the committee for such amendments,
until he has gone through the whole. He then delivers it at the clerk's ta-

without a new power. Scob., 51. But it may be revived by a vote, and the
same matter recommitted to them. 4 Orey^ 861.
SECTION XXVIIL
BILL, BECOMJOTMENT.
After a bill has been committed end reported, it ought not in an ordinary
course to be recommitted; but in cases of importance, and for special rea-
sons, it is sometimes recommitted, and usually to the same committee*
Hakew.y 151. If a report be recommitted before agreed to in the House, what
has passed in committee is of no validity; the whole question is again before
the committee, and a new resolution must be again moved, as if nothing had
passed. 2 EaU.<, 131— no^«.
In Senate, January 1800, the salvage bill was recommitted three times after
the commitment.
A particular clause of a bOl may be committed without the whole bill, (8
HaU.^ 131 ;) or so much of a paper to one and so much to another committee.
SECTION XXIX.
BILL, BBP0BT8 TAKEN UP.
When the report of a paper originating with a committee is taken up by
the House, they proceed exactly as in committee. Here, as in committee,
when the paragraphs have, on distinct questions, been agreed to seriatim (5
Qrey, 366; 6 Grey, 368; 8 Qrey, 47, 104, 360; 1 Torbuck'a Deb., 125; ZUats., 348,)
no question need be put on the whole report. 5 Greyy 381.
On taking up a bill reported with amendments, the amendments only are
read by the Clerk. The Speaker then reads the first, and puts it to the ques-
tion, and so on until the whole are adopted or rejected, before any other
amendment be admitted, except it be an amendment to an amendment. EU
synge^a Mem.^ 53. When through the amendments of the committee, the
Speaker pauses, and gives time for amendments to be proposed in the House
to the body of the bill as he does also if it has been reported withont amend-
ments, putting no questions but on amendments proposed ; and when through
the whole, he puts the question whether the bOl be read the third time.
SECTION XXX.
qUASI-OOMKITTEB.
If on motion and question the bill be not committed, or if no proposition
for commitment be made, then the proceedings in the Senate of the United
States and in Parliament are totally different. The former shall be first stated.
[The 28th rule of the Senate says : " All bills on a second reading shall first

be considered by the Senate in the same manner as if the Senate were in
Committee of the Whole, before they shall be taken up and proceeded on by
the Senate agreeably to the standing rules, unless otherwise ordered;" (that
is to say, unless ordered to be referred to a special committee.) And when
the Senate shall consider a treaty, bill, or resolution, as in Committee of the
Whole, the Vice President or President pro tempore may call a member to fill
the chair during the time the Senate shall remain in Committee of the Whole ;
and the chairman (so called) shall, during such time, have the powers of a
President pro tempore,
[The proceedings of the Senate, as in a Committee of the Whole, or in
Quasi-Committee are precisely as in a real Committee of the Whole, taking
no question but on amendments. When through the whole they consider the
Quasi-Committee as risen, the House resumes without any motion, question
or resolution to that effect, and the President reports that** The House acting
as in a committee of the Whole, have had under their consideration the bill
entitled, etc., and have made sundry amendments, which he will now report
to the House." The bill is then before them, as it would have been if report-
ed from a committee, and the questions are regularly to be put again on every
•mendment; which being gone through, the President pauses to give time
to the House to propose amendments to the body of the bill, and when through,
puts the question whether it shall be read a third time.]
[After progress in amending the bill in Quasi-Committee, m motion may be
made to refer it to a special committee. I^ the motion prevails, it is equiva-
lent in effect to the several votes, that the committee rise, the House resume
itself, discharge the Committee of the Whole, and refer the bill to a special
committee. In that case the amendments already made fall. But if the mo-
tion fails, the Quasi-Committee stands in statu quo."]
[How XlEir does this 28th rule subject the House, when in Quasi-Committee.
to the laws which regulate the proceedings of Committees of the Whole f J
The particulars in which these differ from proceedings in the House are the
following: 1. In a committee every member may speak as often as he pleases.
2. The votes of m committee may be rejected or altered when reported to the
House. 8. A committee, even of the whole, cannot refer any matter to an-
other committee. In a committee, no previous question can be taken; the
only means to avoid any improper discussion is to move that the committee
rise; and if it be apprehended that the same discussion will be attempted
on returning into committee, the House can discharge them, and proceed it-
self on the business, keeping down the improper discussions by the previous
question. 5. A committee cannot punish a breach of order in the House or in
the gallery. 9 QTey^ 118. It can only rise and report it to the House, who may
proceed to punish. [The first and second of these peculiarities attach to the
Quasi-Committee of the Senate, as every day's practice proves, and seem to
be the only ones to which the 28th rule meant to subject them ; for it continues
to be a House, and therefore, though it acts in some respects as a com-
mittee, in others it preserves its character as a House. Thus: 8. It is in
the daily habit of referring its business to a special committee. 4. It admits

of the previous question ; if it did not, it would have no means of preventing ao
improper discussion, nothelng ahle as a committee is, to avoid it by returning
into the House, for the moment it would resume the same subject there, the
28th rule declares it again a Quasi-Committee. 5. It would doubtless exer-
cise its powers as a House on any breach of order. 6. It takes a question by
yea and nay as the House does. 7. It receives messages from the President
and the other House. 8. In the midst of a debate it receives a motion to ad-
journ, and ac^oums as a House, not a committee.]
SECTION XXXI.
BILLS, SECOND BEADING IN THE HOUSE.
In Parliament after the bill has been read a second time, if on the motion
and question it bo not committed, or if no proposition for commitment be
made, the Speaker reads it by paragraphs, pausing between each, but putting
no question but on amendments proposed; and when through the whole, he
puts the question whether it shall be read a third time? if it come from tho
other House; or, if originating with themselves whether it shall be engrossed
and read a third time? The Speaker reads sitting, but rises to put questions.
The Clerk stands while he reads.
[*But the Senate of the United States is so much in the habit of making
many and material amendments at the third reading, that it has become the
practice not to engross a bill until it has passed—an irregular and dangerous
practice, because in this way the paper which passes the Senate is not that
which goes to the other House, and that which goes to the other House as the
act of the Senate has never been seen in the Senate. In reducing numerous,
difficult and illegible amendments into the text, the Secretary may with the
most innocent intentions, commit errors which can never again be corrected.]
The bill being now as perfect as its friends can make it, this is the proper
stage for those fundamentally opposed to make their first attack. All at-
tempts at earlier periods are with disjointed efforts, because many who do
not expect to be in favor of the bill ultimately are willing to let it go on to
its perfect state, to take time to examine it themselves and to hear what can
be said for it, knowing that after all, they will have sufficient opportunities
of giving it their veto. Its last two stages, therefore, are reserved for this—
that is to say, on the question whether it shall be engrossed and read a third
time, and lastly, whether it shall pass f The first of these is usually the most
interesting contest, because then the whole subject is new and engaging; and
the minds of the members having not yet been declared by any trying vote,
• The former practice of the Senate referred to In this paragraph has been
changed by the following rule :
[RuLB 29. The final question upon the second reading of every bill, resolution,
constitutional amendment or motion, originating In the Senate, and requiring
three readings previous to being passed, shall be.^'Whether It shall be engrossed
and read a third time?" and no amendment shall be received for discussion at the
third reading of any bill, resolntlon, amendment or motion, unless by unanimous
consent of the members present ; but it shall at all times be In order before the
final passage of any such bill, resolution, constitutional amendment or motion, to
move Its commitment; and should such commitment take place, and any amend
ment be reported by the committee, the said bill, resolution, constitutional amend*
ment.or motion, shall be again read a second time, and considered as In Committee
of the Whole, and then the aforesaid question shall be again put.]

strength between its friends and opponents, and it behooves every one to

SECTION XXXII.
BBADINO PAPEBS.
Where papers are laid before the House or referred to a committee, every
member has a right to have them once read at the table before he can bo
compelled to vote on them; but. it is a great though common error to sup-
pose that he has a right totiei guoties^ to have acts, Journals, accounts, or
papers on the table, read Independently of the will of the House. The delay
and interruption which this might be made to produce evince the impossibil-
ity of the existence of such a right. There is, indeed, so manifest a propri-
ety of permitting every member to have as much information as possible on
every question on which he is to vote, that when he desires the reading, if it
be seen that it is really for information and not for delay, the Speaker directs
it to be read without putting a question, if no one objects; but if objected
to, a question must be put. 2 Hats.,, 117, 118.
It is equally an error to suppose that any member has a right, without a
question put, to lay a book or paper on the table, or have it read, on suggest-
ing that it contains matter infringing on the privileges of the House. lb.
For the same reason a member has not a right to read a paper in his place,
if it be objected to, without leave of the House. But this rigor is never ex-
ercised but where there is an intentional or gross abuse of the time and pa-
tience of the House.
A member has not a right even to read his own speech, committed to writ-
ing, without leave. This also is to prevent an abuse of time, and therefore
is not refused but where that is intended. 2 Grey^ 226.
A report of a committee of the Senate on a bill from the House of Repre
scntatives being under consideration, on motion that the report ol the com
mittee of the House of Representatives on the same bill be read in the Sen

Formerly when papers were referred to a committee, they used to be firs
read; but of late only the titles, unless a number insist that they shal
oe read, and then nobody can oppose it. 2 Rats., 117.

PRIVILEGED QUESTIONS.

The rule is now as follows :
[When a question is under debate, no motion shall be received but to adjourn, t-
lay on the table, to postpone Indefinitely, to postpone to a day certain, to commit
or to amend ; which several motions shall have precedence in the order they stanc
arranged, and the motion for adjournment shall always be in order, and be decided

less for an amendment, for the previous qnestfon, orfor postponing the
main qnestlon, or to commit it, or to adjoarn. Bule 11.]
It is no possession of a bill unless it he delivered to the Clerk to be read,
or the Speaker reads the title. Lex, Pari., ^4; Elsynge^s Mem., B5; Ord,
House of Commons, 64.
It is a general rale that the question first moved and seconded shall he first
put. Scob., 28, 22 ; 2 Hats., 81. But this rule gives way to what may he called
privileged questions ; and the privileged questions are of different grades
among themselves.
A motion to adjourn simply takes place of all others, for otherwise the
House might he kept sitting against its will, and indefinitely. Tet this mo-
tion cannot he received after another question is actually put, and while the
House is engaged in voting.
Orders of the day take place of all other questions, except for adjournment
>-that is to say, the question which is the subject of an order is made a priv-
ileged one, pro hoc vice. The order is a repeal of the general rale as to this
special case. When any member moves, therefore, for the Order of the Day
to he read, no further debate i& permitted on the question which was before
the House: for if the debate might proceed, it might continue through the
day and defeat the order. This motion, to entitle it to precedence, must be
for the orders generally, and not for any particular one; and if it be carried
on the question, " Whether the House will now proceed to the orders of the
day?" they must be read and proceeded on in the course in which they stand,
(2 Eats., 83,) for priority of order gives priority of right, which cannot be
taken away but by another special order.
After these there are other privileged questions, which will require consiA
erable explanation.
It IS proper that every parliamentary assembly should have certain fornui
of questions, so adapted as to enable them fitly to dispose of every proposi-
tion which can be made to them. Such are: 1. The previous question. 2.
To postpone indefinitely. 8. To adjourn a question to a definite day. 4. To
lie on the table. 5. To commit. 6. To amend. The proper occasion for each
of these questions shomd be understood.
1. When a proposition is moved which it is useless or inexpedient now to
express or discuss, the previous question has been introduced for suppress*
Ing for that time the motion and its discussion. 8 Hats., 188, 189.
2. But as the previous question gels rid of it only for that day, and the
same proposition may recur the next day, if they wish to suppress it for the
whole of that session, they postpone it indefinitely. 8 Hats., 183. This
quashes the proposition for that session, as an indefinite adjournment is a
dissolution, or the continuance ol a suit sine die is a discontinuance of it.
8. When a motion is made which it wi*. oe proper to act on, but informa-
tion is wanted, or something more pressing claims the present time, the
question or debate is adijouraed to such day within the session as will answer
the views of thr House. 2 Hats., 81. And those who have spoken before
may not speak again when the adjourned debate is resumed. S Jlati.., 73.

Sometimes, however, this has been abnsedly need by adijouming it to a day
beyond the session, to get rid of it altogether, as would be done by an fndefl-
nite postponement.
4. When the Honse has something else which claims its present attention,
bnt would be willing to reserve in their power to take up a propositiop when-
ever it shall suit them, they order it to lie on the table. It may then be
called for at any time.
5. If the proposition will want more amendment and digestion than the for-
malities of the House will conveniently admit, they refer it to a committee.
6. But if the proposition be well digested, and may need but few and simple
amendments, and especially if these be of leading consequence, they then
proceed to consider and amend it themselves.
The Senate, in their practice, vary from this regular gradation oi forms.
Their practice comparatively with that of Parliament stands thus:
FOB THS parliambitt: thb senate uses:
Postponement indefinite. Postponement to a day beyond the session.
Adjournment, Postponement to a day within the session,
T _j x^ ^ ^, ( Postponement indefinite.
Lying on the table. ■! » . ^^ x ^,
' * ( Lying on the table.
In their eighth rule, therefore, which declares that while the question it
before the Senate no motion shall be received, unless it be for the previous
question, or to postpone, commit, or amend the main question, the term post-
ponement must be understood according to their broad use of it and not in
the parliamentary sense. Their rule then establishes as privileged qu estions,
the previous questions, postponement, commitment and amendment.
But it may be asked. Have these questions any privileges among them-
selves? or are they so equal that the common principle of the "first moved
first put,^^ takes place among them ? This will need explanation. Their
competitions may be as follows :
In the first, second and
third classes, and the
first member of the
fourth class, the rule,
" first moved first put "
takes place.

In the first class, where the previous question is first moved, the effect is
peculiar; for it not only prevents the after motion to postpone or commit
from being put to question before it, but also ftt>m being put after it; for if
the previous question be decided a£Brmatively, to wit, that the main Questkni

Blukll now be pat^ it would of course be against the decision to postpone or
commit; and if it be decided negatively, to wit, that the main question shall
not now be put, this puts the House out of possession of the main question,
and consequently there is nothing before them to postpone or commit So
that neither voting for nor against the previous question will enable the advo-
cates for postponing or committing to get at their object. Whether it may be
amended shall bo examinad hereafter.
Second class. If postponement be decided affirmatively, the proposition is
removed f^om before the House, and consequently there is no ground for the
previous question, commitment, or amendment; but if decided negatively,
(that it shall not be postponed,) the main question may then be suppressed
by the previous question, or may be committed or amended.
The third class is subject to the same observations as the second.
The fourth class. Amendment of the main question first moved, and after-
wards the previous question, the question of amendment shall bo first put.
Amendment and postponement competing, postponement is first put, as the
equivalent proposition to acijoam the main question would be in Parliament.
The reason is, that the question for amendment is not suppressed by postpon*
ing or acUouming the main question, but remains before the House whenever
the main question is resumed; and it might be that the occasion for other ur-
gent business might go by, and be lost by length of debate on the amendment
if the House had it not in their power to postpone the whole subject.
Amendment and commitment. The question for committing though last
moved, shall be first put; because, in truth, it facilitates and befriends the
motion to amend. Scobell is express : ^^ On motion to amend a bill, any one
may notwithstanding move to commit It, and the question for commitment
shall be first put.^^ 8cob,^ 46.
We have hitherto considered the case of two or more of the privileged ques-
tions contending for privilege between themselves, when both are moved on
the original or main question; but now let us suppose one of them to be
moved not on the original primary question, but on the secondary one, e. g.
Suppose a motion to postpone, commit, or amend the main question, and
that it be moved to suppress that motion by putting a previous question on it.
This is not allowed, because it would embarrass questions too much to allow
them to be piled on one another several stories high ; and the same result may
be had in a more simple way, by deciding against the postponement, commit-
ment, or amendment. 8 EaU,^ 81, 2, 3, 4.
Suppose a motion for the previous question, or commitment or amendment
9f the main question, and that it be then moved to postpone the motion for
the previous question, or for commitment or amendment of the main question.
1. It would be absurd to postpone the previous question, commitment or
amendment alone, and thus separate the appendage from its principal; yet
it must be postponed separately fh>m its original, if at all, because the eighth
rule of the Senate says that *^when a main question is before the House, no
motion shall be received but to commit, amend or pre-question the original
question,** which is the parliamentary doctrine also; therefore the motion tr
Digitized by VjOOQIC j
MAiniAL OP PABLIAMBNTART PBACTICB. 88
postpone the secondary motion for the previous question, or for committing
or mmending, cannot be received. 2. This is a piling of questions one on an-
other; which to avoid emhorassment, is not allowed. 8. The same result
may he had more simply by voting against the previous question, commit-
ment, or amendment.
Suppose a commitment moved of a motion for the previous question, or to
postpone or amend. The first, second and third reasons before stated, all
hold good againat this.
Suppose an amendment moved to a motion for the previous question.
Answer : the previous question cannot be amended. Parliamentary usage, as
well as the ninth rule of the Senate, has fixed its form to be, ** Shall the main
question be now put?— 4. «., at this instant; and as the present instant is but
one, it can admit of no modification. To change it to to-morrow, or any oth*
er moment, is without example and without utility. But suppose a motion
to amend a motion for postponement as to one day instead of another, or to
a special instead of an indefinite time. The usefhl character of amendment
gives it a privilege of attaching itself to a secondary and privileged motion ;
that is, we may amend a postponement of a main question. So, we may
amend a commitment of a main question, as by adding, for example, ** with
instructions to inquire," etc. In like manner, if an amendment be moved to
an amendment, it is admitted; but it would not be admitted in another de-
gree, to- wit: to amend an amendment to an amendment of a main question.
This would lead to too much embarrassment. The line must be drawn some-
where, and usage has drawn it after the amendment to the amendment.
The same result must be sought by deciding against the amendment to the
amendment and then moving it again as it wished to be amended. In this
form it becomes only amendment to an amendment.
p^en motions are made for reference of the same subject to a select com-
mittee and to a standing committee, the question on reference to the stand-
ing committee shall be first put. JStUe 86.]
[In filling a blank with a sum, the largest sum should be first put to the
question, by the thirteenth rule of the Senate,*] contrary to the rule of Par-
liament, which privileges the smallest sum and longest time. 5 Orej/, 179;
2 HaU.^ 8, 83; 8 Mats., 182, 188. And this is considered to be not in the form
of an amendment to the question, but as alternative or successive originals.
In all cases of time or number, we must consider whether the larger compre-
hends the lesser as in a question to what day a postponement shall bo, the
number of a committee, amount of a fine, term of an imprisonment, term of
irredeemability of a loan, or the Urminua in quern in any other case; then
the question must begin a maximo. Or whether the lesser includes the
greater, as in questions on the limitation of the rate of interest, on what day
the session shall be closed by adjournment, on what day the next shall com-
mence, when an act shall commence, or the terminua a quo in any other case
where the question must begin a mifUmo; the object being not to begin at

that extreme which, and more, being within every man^s wish, no one
could negative it, and yet, if he should vote in the affirmative, every question
for more would be precluded; but at that extreme which would unite few,
and then to advance or recede till you get a number which will unite a bare
m^Oority. 3 Qrey^ 376, 384, 385. ** The fair question, in this case, is not that
to which, and more, all will agree, whether there shall be addition to the
question." Grey^ 355.
Another exception to the rule of priority is when a motion has been made
to strike out or agree to a paragraph. Motions to amend it are to be put to the
question before a vote is taken on striking out or agreeing to the whole para-
graph.
But there are several questions which, being incidental to every one, wil'
take place of every one, privileged or not, to-wit: a question of order arising
out of any other question must be decided before that question. 2 Hatt.^ 88.
A matter of privilege arising out of any question, or firom a quarrel between
two members or any other cause, supersedes the consideration of the original
question, and must be first disposed of. 2 Hats.^ 88.
Reading papers relative to the question before the House. This question

Leave asked to withdraw a motion. The rule of Parliament being that a
motion made and seconded is in the possession of the House, and cannot be
withdrawn without leave, the very terms of the rule imply that leave may be
given, and, consequently, may be asked and put to the question.
SECTION XXXIV.
THE PBEVIOUS QUKSTIOIC.
When any question is before the House, any member may move a previous
question, "Whether that question (called the main question) shall now be
put? " If it pass in the affirmative, then the main question is to be put im
mediately, and no man ma^ speak anything ftirther to it, either to add oi
alter. Memor. in Hakew.y 28; 4 Orey^ 27.
The previous question being moved and seconded, the question from the
chair shall be, ** Shall the main question be now put?" and if the nays pre-
vail, the main question shall not then be put.
This kind of question is understood by Mr. Hatsell to have been introduced
in 1604. 1 Hats., 80. Sir Henry Vane introduced it. 2 Grey, .113, 114; S Grey,
884. When the question was put in this form, " Shall the main question be
put?" a determination in the negative suppressed the main question during
the session; but since the words, ** now put " are used, they exclude it for the
present only; formerly, indeed, only till the present debate was over, (4 Grey,
43), but now for that day and no longer. "2 Grey, 113, 114.
Before the question "Whether the main question shall now be put?" any
person might formerly have spoken to the main question, because othcrwiso
he would be precluded from speaking to it at all. Mem. in ffakew., 28.
The proper occasion for the previous question, is when a question is brought
forward of a delicate nature as to high personages, etc., or the discussion of
Digitized by VjOOQIC
KAIHTAL OP PABLIAMENTARY PBACTICB. 85
which may call forth obBdrvations which might be of iiJariouB conseqnences.
Then the preTlous qaestion is proposed; and in the modem usage, the discns*
sion of the main qaestion is suspended, and the debate confined to the pre-
▼ions qaestion. The use of it has been extended abnsiyely to other cases;
but in these it has been an embarrassing procedore; its nses would be as well
answered by other more simple parliamentary forms, and therefore it should
not be fkvored, but r^tricted within as narrow limits as possible.
Whether a main question may be amended after the previous question on it
has been moved and seconded? 2 Hats.., 8S, says, if the previous question haff
been moved and seconded, and also proposed from the chair, (by which he
means stated by the Speaker for debate,) it has been doubted whether an
amendment can be admitted to the main question. He thinks it may, aftei
the previous question is moved and seconded; but not after it has been pro-
posed from the chair. In this case he thinks the friends to the amendment
must vote that the main question be not now put; and then move their
amended question, which being made new by the amendment, is no longer
the same which has Just been suppressed, and therefore may be proposed as
a new one. But this proceeding certainly endangers the main question, by
dividing its friends, some of whom may choose it unamended, rather than
lose it altogether; while others of them may vote, as Hatsell advises, that the
main question be not now put with a view to move it again in an amended
form. The enemies of the main question, by this manceuvre to the previous
question, get the enemies to the amendment added to them on the first vote,
and throw the friends of the main question under the embarrassment of ral-
lying again as they can. To support his opinion, too, he makes the deciding
circumstances, whether an amendment may or may not be made, to be, that
the previous question has been proposed from the Chair. But, as the rule is
that the House is in possession of a question as soon as it is moved and sec-
onded, it cannot be more than possessed of it by its being also proposed
from the Chair. It may be said, indeed, that the object of the previous ques-
tion being to get rid of a question, which it Is not expedient should be dis-
cussed, this object may be defeated by moving to amend, and, in the discus-
sion of that motion, involving the subject of the main question. But so may
the object of the previous question be defeated, by moving the amended
qnestion as Mr. Hatsell proposes after the decision against putting the origi-
nal question. He acknowledges, too, that the practice has been to admit pre-
vious amendments, and only cites a few late instances to the contrary. On
the whole, I should think it best to decide it ab inconvenlenti, to-wit: which
is most inconvenient, to put it in the power of one side of the House to defeat
a proposition by hastily moving the previous question, and thus forcing the
main question to be put unamended; or to put it in the power of the other
side to force on, incidentally at least a discussion which would be better
avoided? Perhaps the last is the least inconvenience; inasmuch as the
Speaker, by confining the discussion rigorously to the amendment only, may
prevent their going into the main question, and inasmuch also as so great a
proportion of the cases in which the previous question is called for, are taix

•nd proper Bnbjects for p^iblic discnsslon, and ought not to be obstractedby
ft formality introduced for questionB of a peculiar character.
SECTION XXXV.
On an amendment being moved, a member who has spoken to the main
taestion may speak again to the amendment. 8col>„ 23.
If an amendment be proposed inconsistent with one already agreed to, it is
a lit ground for its rejection by the House, but not within the competence of
the Speaker to suppress as if it were against order; for were he permitted to
draw questions of consistence within the vortex of order, he might usurp a
negative on important modifications, and suppress, instead of subserving the
legislative will.
Amendments may be made so as totally to alter the nature of the proposi-
tion; and it is a way of getting rid of a proposition, by making it bear a sense
different Arom what it was intended by the movers, so that they vote against
it themselves. 2 Hatt., 79, 4, 82, 84. A new bill may be engrafted by way of
amendment, on the words " Be it enacted,** etc 1 Orey^ 190, 192.
If it be proposed to amend by leaving out certain words, it may be moved,
as an amendment to this amendment, to leave out a part of the words of the
amendment, which is equivalent to leaving them in the bill. 2 HaU.^ 80, 9.
The parliamentary question is, always, whether the words shall stand part of
the bill.
When it is proposed to amend by inserting a paragraph, or part of one, the
firiends of the paragraph may make it as perfect as they can by amendments
before the question is put for inserting it. If it be received. It cannot be
amended afterwards, in the same stage, because the House has, on a vote
agreed to it in that form. In like manner, if it is proposed to amend by
striking out a paragraph, the friends of the paragraph are first to make it as per-
fect as they can by amendments, before the question is put for striking it out.
If on the question It be retained, it cannot be amended afterwards, because
a vote against striking out is equivalent to a vote agreeing to it in that form.
When it is moved to amend by striking out certain words and inserting
others, the manner of stating the question is first to read the whole passage to
be amended as it stands i^t present, then the words proposed to be struck out,
next those to be Inserted, and lastly the whole passage as It will be when
amended. And the question, if desired, is then to be divided, and put first on
striking out. If carried, it is next on inserting the words proposed. If that
be lost, it may be moved to insert others. 2 EaU,^ 80, 7.
A motion is made to amend by striking out certain words and inserting others
in their place, which is negatived. Then it is moved to strike out the same
words, and to insert others of a tenor entirely different from those first pro-
posed. It is negatived. Then it is moved to strike out the same words and
insert nothing, which is agreed to. All this is admissible, because to strike
out and Insert A, is one proposition. To strike out and insert B, is a different
proposition. And to strike out and insert nothing, is still different. And the
Digitized by VjOOQIC
MAiniAL OF PABLIAMENTABT PBACmCB. 87
rejection of one proposition does not preclude the olTering a different one. Nor
would it change the case were the first motion divided by putting the question
first on striking out, and that negatived; for, as putting the whole motion to
the question at once would not have precluded, the putting the half of it can-
not do it.*
But if it had be^i carried affirmatively to strike out the words and to in-
sert A, it could toot afterwards be permitted to strike out A and insert B.
The mover of B should have notified, while the insertion of A was under de-
bate, that he would move to insert B; in which ease those who preferred it
would Join in rejecting A.
After A is inserted, however, it may be moved to strike out a portion of
the original paragraph, comprehending A, provided the coherence to be struck
out be so substantial as to make this effectively a different proposition,for then
it is resolved into the common case of striking out a paragraph after amending
it. Nor does anything forbid a new insertton, instead of A and its coherents.
In Senate, January 26, 1796, a motion to postpone until the second Tuesday
in February some amendments proposed to the Constitution; the words,
"until the second Tuesday in February" were struck out by way of amend-
ment. Then it was moved to add, "until the first day of June." Objected
that it was not in order, as the question should be first put on the longest
time; therefore, after a shorter time decided against, a longer cannot be put to
question. It was answered that this rule takes place only in filling blanks
for time. But when a specific time stands part of motion, that may be struck
out as well as any other part of a motion; and when struck out a motion may
be received to insert any other. In fact, it is not until they are struck out,
and a blank for the time thereby produced, that the rule can begin to ope-
rate, by receiving all the propositions for different times, and putting the
question successively on the longesL Otherwise it would be in the power
of the mover, by inserting originally a short time, to preclude the possibility
of a longer, for till the short time is struck out, you caenot insert a longer;
and if, after it is struck out, you cannot do it, then it cannot be done at all.
Suppose the first motion had been made to amend by striking out " the sec-
ond Tuesday in February," and inserting instead thereof " the first of June,"
it would have been regular, then, to divide the question, by proposing the
first question to strike out and then that to insert. Now ttiis is precisely the
effect of the present proceeding; only, instead of one motion and two ques-
tions, there are two motions and two questions to effect it— the motion being
divided as well as the question.
When the matter contained in two bills might better be put into one, tne
manner is to reject the one, and incorporate its matter into another bill by

way of amendment. So if the matter of one bill would be better distributed
into two, any part may be struck out by way of amendment, and put into a
new bill. If a section is to be transposed, a question must be put on striking
it out where it stands, and another for inserting it in the place desired.
A bill passed by the one House with blanks. These may be filled up by
the other by way of amendments, returned to the first as such, and passed.

The number prefixed to the section of a bill, being merely a marginal indl

SECTION XXXVI.
DIYISION OP THB QUESTION.
If a question contain more parts than one, it may be divided into two or
more questions. Mem. in Hakew.^ 39. But not as the right of an individual
member but with the consent of the House. For who is to decide whether
a question is complicated or not?— where it is complicated?— into how many
propositions it may be divided? The fact is, that the only mode of separat-
ing a complicated question is by moving amendments to it; and these must
be decided by the House, on a question, unless the House orders it to be di-
vided; as, on a question, December 2, 1040, making void the election of the
knights for Worcester, on a motion it was resolved to make two questions of
it, to wit: one on each knight. 3 HdU.^ 85, 86. So, wherever there are sev-
eral names in question, they may be divided and put one by one. 0 Orcy^
414. So, 1729, April 17, on an objection that a question was complicated, it
was separated by amendment. 2 Hats.^ 79.
The soundness of these observations will be evident from the embarass-
ments produced by the 12th rule of the Senate, which says, ** if the question
in debate contain several points, any member may have the same divided."
1798, May 30, the alien bill in quasi-oommittee. To a section and proviso
in the original had been added two new provisos by way of amendment. On
a motion to strike out the section as amended, the question was do^iired to
bo divided. To do this it must be put first on striking out either the former
proviso or some distinct member of the section. But when nothing remains
but the last member or the section and the proviso, they cannot be divided
BO as to put the last member to question by itself; for the provisos might then
be left standing alone as exceptions to a rule when the rule is taken away; or
the new provisos might be left to a second question, after having been decided
on once before at the same reading, which is contrary to rule. But the ques-
tion must be on striking out the last member of the section as amended. This
sweeps away the exceptions with the rule, and relieves from inconsistence.
A question to be divisible, must comprehend points so distinct and entire
that one of them being taken away the other may stand entire. But a pro-
viso or exception without an enacting clause does not contain an entire point
or proposition.
May 31. The same bill being before the Senate. There was a proviso that

MANUAL OP PABLIAMEBTTABT PBACTICB. 8&
the bill should not extend, 1, To any foreign minister; nor, 2. To any person
to whom the l^resident should give a passport; nor, 8, To any alien merchant
conforming himself to such regulations as the President shall prescribe; and
a division of the question into its simplest elements was called for. It was
divided into four parts, the fourth taking in the words, '* conforming himself,"
etc. It was objected that the words, *^ any alien merchant'* could not be sep-
a^^ated from their modifying words, " conforming,** etc, because these words
if left by themselves contain no substantive idea— will make no sense. But
admitting that the divisions of a paragraph into separate questions must be
so made that each part may stand by Itself, yet the House having on the ques-
tion, retained the two first divisions, the words, ** any alien merchant ** may be
strack out, and their modifying words will then attach themselves to the pre-
ceding description of persons, and become a modification of that description .
When a question is divided, after the question on the first member, the
second is open to debate and amendment; because it is a known rule that a
person may rise and speak at any time before the question has been com-
pletely decided, by putting the negative as well as the affirmative side. But
the question is not completely put when the vote has been taken on the first
member only. One-half of the question, both affirmative and negative,
remains still to be put. See Execut. Jour.^ June 25, 1795. The same decision
by President Adams.
SECTION XXXVIL
OO-BXISTTNO QUESTIONS
It may be asked whether the House can be in possession of two motions or
propositions at the same time, so that one of them being decided, the other
goes to question without being moved anew! The answer must be special.
When a question is interrupted by a vote of adjournment, it is thereby
removed from before the House, and does not stand ipso facto before them at
their next meeting, but must come forward in the usual way. So, when it is
interrupted by the order of the day. Such other privileged questions also as
dispose of the main question, («. g. the previous question, postponement, or
commitment,) remove it from before the House. But it is cmly suspended by
a motion to amend, to withdraw, to read papers, or by a question of order or
privilege, and stands again before the House when these are decided. None
but the class of privileged questions can be brought forward while there is
another question before the House, the rule being that when a motion has
been made and seconded, no other can be received, except it be a priveleged

Wbere questions are perfectly eqniyalent, bo that the negative of the one
amoonta to the affirmatlYe of the other, and leaves no other alternative, the
decision of the one condndes necessarily the other. 4 Orei/y 167. Thus the
negative of striking ont amounts to the affirmative of agreeing; and therefoit
to put a question on agreeing after that on striking out, would he to put the
same question in effect twice over. Not so in questions of amendments be«
tween the two Houses. A motion to recede being negatived, does not amount
to a positive vote to insist, because there is another alternative, to wit: to ad-
here.
A bill originating in one House is passed by the other with an amendment.
A motion in the originating House to agree to the amendment is negatived.
Does there result from this a vote of disagreement, or must the question on
disagreement be expressly voted? The questions respecting amendments
from another house are— let, to agree; 2d, to disagree; 3d, recede; 4th, insist;
&th, adhere.
1st. To agree. } Either of these concludes the other necessarily, foi
2d. To disagree. ) the positive of either is exactly the equivalent of the
negative of the other, and no other alternative re-
mains. On either motion amendments to the amend-
ments may be proposed; €. ^., if it be moved to dis-
agree, those who are for the amendment have a right
to propose amendments, and to make it as perfect as
they can, before the question of disagreeing is put.
8d. To recede \ You may then either insist or adhere.
4th. To insist. >• You may then either recede or adhere.
6th. To adhere. ) You may then either recede or insist.
Consequently the negative of these is not equivalent
to a positive vote the other way. It does not raise so
necessary an implication as may authorize the Sec-
retary by inference to enter another vote ; for two al-
ternatives still remain, either of which may be adop^
ed by the House.
SECTION XXXIX.
THE QUESTION.
The question is to be put first, on the affirmative and then on the negative side.
After the Speaker has put the affirmative part of the question, any memboi
who has not spoken before to the question may rise and speak before tho
negative be put; because it is no Ml question till the negative part be put.
5coft., 83; 2 ITa^., 78.
Bat in small matters, and which are, of course, such as receiving: petitions,
reports, withdrawing motions, reading papers, etc., the Speaker most com-
monly supposes the consent of the House where no objection is expressed-
an d does not give them the trouble of putting the question formally. *. 6^

/SECTION XL.
BILLS, THIRD BBADIHO.
To prevent bills from being passed by sorprise, the Hoase, by a standing
•rder, directs that they shall not be pnt on their passage before a fixed hoar,
naming one at which the fionse is commonly fhll. Hakew.y 153.
[The usage of the Senate is, not to pat bills on their passage till noon.]
A bill reported and passed to the third reading cannot on that day be read
the third time and passed; because this would be to pass on two readings in
the same day. «
At the third reading the Clerk reads the bill and deliyers.it to the Speaker,
who states the title, that it is the third time of reading the bill, and that the
question will be whether it shall pass? Formerly the Speaker or those who
prepared a bill, prepared also a breviate or summary statement of its con-
tents, which the Speaker read when he declared the state of the bill, at the
seyeral readings. Sometimes, however, he read the bill itself, especially on
its passage. Hakew.^ 136, 137, 153; Coke, 23, 115. Latterly, instead of this,
he, at the third reading, states the whole contents of the bill, verbatim, only.
Instead of reading the formal parts "Be it enacted, etc., he states that "pre-
amble recites so and so— the first section enacts that, etc., the 2d section
enacts,** etc.
[But in the Senate of the United States both of these formalities are dis-
pensed with; the breviate presenting but an imperfect view of the bill, and
being capable of being made to present a false one; and the full statement
being a useless waste of time, immediately after a ftiU reading by the Clerk
and especially as every member has a printed copy in his hand.]
A bill on the third reading is not to be committed for the matter or body
thereof; but to receive some particular clause or proviso, it has been somo-
times suffered, but as a thing very unusual. Eahew.y 126. Thus, 27 EL, 1584,
a bill was committed on the third reading, having been formerly committed
on the second, but is declared not usual. D^Ewes, 837, col., 2; 414, coL, 2.
When an essential provision has been omitted, rather than erase the bill
and render it suspicious, they add a clause on a separate paper, engrossed
and called a rider, which is read and put to the question three times. EU
tynge>9 Memorials, 59; 6 Orey, 335; 1 BlackaL, 183. For example of riders,
see 3 Hate,, 121, 122, 124, 126. Every one is at liberty to bring in a rider
without asking leave. 10 Grey, 52.
It is laid down as a general rule, that amendments proposed at the second
reading, shall be twice read, and those proposed at the third reading thrice
read; as also all amendments from the other House. Town, col., 19, 23, 24,
25, 26, 27, 28.
It is with great and almost invincible reluctance that amendments are ad-
mitted at this reading, which occasion erasures or interlineations. Some-
times a proviso has been cntoff from a bill; sometimes erased. 9 Orey, 513.
This is the proper stage for filling up blanks; for if filled up before, and
now altered by erasure, it would be peculiarly unsafe.

At tMs reading the bill la debated aA>esh, and for the most part is moM
spoken to at this time than on any of the former readings. Hakew,^ 153.
The-debate on the question whether it should be read a third time, has dis-
covered to its friends and opponents the argnments on which each side relies,
and which of these appear to have inflaence with the House; they have had
time to meet them with new arguments, and to put their old ones into new
shapes. The former vote has tried the strength of the former opinion, and
furnished grounds to estimate the issue; and the question now offered for
its passage is the last occasion which Is ever to be offered for carrying or
rejeotingit
When the debate is ended, the Speaker, holding the bill in his hand, puts
the question for its passage, by saying, ** Qentlemen, all of you who are of
opinion that this bill shall pass, say aye;^* and after the answer of the ayes,
** All those of the contrary opinion, say no." Eakew.^ 154.
After the bill is passed there can be no further alteration of it in any point.

SECTION XLI.
DIVISION OF THB HOUSE.
The afllrmative and negative of the question having been both put and
answered, the Speaker declares whether the yeas or nays have it by the sound.
If he be himself satisfied, and it stands as the Judgment of the House.
But if he be not himself satisfied which voice is the l^eater, or if before any
pther member oomes into the House, or before any new motion is made, (for
it is too late after that,) any member shall rise and declare himself dissatisfied
with the Speaker's decision, then the Speaker is to divide the House. 8cob.^
24; 2 ITate., 140.
When the House of Commons is divided, the one party goes forth, and the
other remains in *Jie House. This has made it important which go forth and
which remain; because the latter gain all the indolent, the indifferent, and
inattentive. Their general rule therefore, is, that those who give their vote
for the preservation of the orders of the House, shall stay in; and those who
are for introducing any new matter or alteration, or proceeding contrary to
the established course, are to go out. But this rule is subject to many excep-
tions and modifications. 2Hai8.^ 134; 1 Eu8h.,p. Z,fol. 92; 5co&., 43, 52; (7o.,

[But in both Houses of Congress all these intricacies are avoided. The ayes

[In Senate, if they are equally divided, the Vice President announces his
opinion, which decides.]
[The Constitution, however, ha« directed that **the yeas andnsys of the

members of either House on any question shall, at the desire of one-fifth of
those present, be entered on the Journal/* And again; that in all cases of re-
considering a bill disapproved by the President, and returned with his ob-
jections, "the votes of both Houses shall be determined by yeas and nays,
and the names of the persons voting for and against the bill shall be entered
on the jourriWs of each House respectively/*]
[By the 16th and 17th rules of the Senate, when the yeas and nays shall be
called for by one-fifth of the members present, each member called upon shall,
unless for special reasons he be excused by the Senate, declare openly, and
without debate, his assent or dissent to the question. In taking the yeas
and nays, and upon the call of the House, the names of the members shall
be taken alphabetically.]
[When the yeas and nays shall be taken upon any question in pursuance
of the above rule, no member shall be permitted, under any circumstances
whatever, to vote after the decision is announced from the Chair.] v
[When it is proposed to take the vote by yeas and nays, the President oi
Speaker states that " the question is whether, e. g., the bill shall pass— that
it is proposed that the yeas and nays shall be entered on the Journal.
Those, therefore, who desire it, will rise." If he finds and declares that
one-fifth have risen, he then states that " those who are of the opinion that
the bill shall pass are to answer in the aflSimiative; those of a contrary opin-
ion in the negative.** The Clerk than calls over the names alphabetically,
notes the yea or nay of each, and gives the list to the President or Speaker,
who declares the result. In the Senate, if there be an equal division, the
Secretary calls on the Vice President and notes his affirmative or negative,
which becomes the decision of the House.]
In the House of Commons every member must give his vote the one way
or the other, {Scob.^ 34,) as it is not permitted to any one to withdraw who
is in the House when the question is put, nor is any one to be told in the
division who was not in when the question was put. 2 HaU.^t 140.
This last position is always true when the vote is by yeas and nays ; where
the negative as well as affirmative of the question is stated by the President
at the same time, and the vote of both sides begins and proceeds pari passu.
It is true also when the question is put in the usual way, if the negative has
also been put; but if it has not, the member entering, or any other member,
may speak, and even propose amendments, by which the debate may be
opened again, and the question be greatly deferred. And as some who have
answered aye may have been changed by the new arguments, the affirmative
must be put over again. If, then, the member entering may, by speaking a
few words, occasion a repetition of a question, it would be useless to deny
it on his simple call for it.
While the House is telling, no member may speak or move out of his
place, for if any mistake be suspected it must be told again. Mtm, in

[When a question has been once made and carried in the affirmative or neg-

be in order after a bill, resolution, message, report, amendment, or motion
upon which the vote was taken shall have gone out of the possession of tht

be in order unless made on the same day on which the vote was taken, or
within the two next days of the actual session of the Senate thereafter.*
BuleZQ.^
[1798, Jan. A bill on its second reading being amended and on the ques-
tion whether it shall be read a third time negatived, was restored^by a decis-
ion to reconsider that question. Here the votes of negative and reconsider-
ation, like positive and negative quantities in an equation, destroy one
another, and are as if thev were expunged from the Journal. Consequently
the bill is open for amendment. Just so far as it was the moment preceding
the question for the third reading; that is to say, all parts of the bill are open
for amendment except those on which votes have been already taken in its
present stage. So, also, it may be recommitted.]

•tlon of time or circumstance, it may be asked whetlier there is no limitation ?
If, after the vote, the paper on which it is passed has been parted with, there
can be no reconsideration; as if a vote has been for the passage of a bill, and
the bill has been sent to the other house. Bat where the paper remains, as on
a bill rejected, when, or nnder what circumstances, does it cease to be sus-
ceptible of reconsideration ? This remains to be settled ; unless, a sense that
the right of reconsideration is a right to waste the time of the Iloase in
repeated agitations of the same question, so that it shall never know when a
question is done with, should induce them to reform this anomolous pro-
ceeding.]
In Parliament, a question once carried cannot be questioned again at the
same session, but must stand as the judgment of the House. Towna.^ col,
67; Mem. in Hakew.y 33. And a bill once rejected, another of the same sub-
stance cannot be brought in again the same session. JTakew., 158 ; 6 Grey^
892. But this does not extend to prevent putting the same question in differ-
ent stages of a bill; because every stage of a bill submits the whole and
every part of it to the opinion of the House, as open for amendment, either
by insertion or omission, though the same amendment has been accepted or
rejected in a former stage. So in reports of committees, e. g. report of an
address, the same question is before the House, and open for free discussion.
Towns., col. 26 ; 2 Hats., 98, 100, 101. So orders of the House, or instructions
to committee, may be discharged. So a bill, begun in one house, and sent
to the other, and there rejected, may be renewed again in that other, passed
end sent back. lb., 92; ZHats., 161. Or if, instead of being rejected, they
read it once and lay it aside, or amend it, and put it off a month, they may

Divers expedients are used to correct the effects of this rule; as bypassing
an explanatory act, if anything has been omitted or ill expressed, (3 ffats.t
278,) or an act to enforce, and make more effectual an act, etc., or to rectify
mistakes in act, etc., or a committee on one bill may be instructed to receive
a clause to rectify the mistakes of another. Thus, June 24, 1685, a clause was
inserted in a bill for rectifying a mistake committed by a clerk in engrossing
a bill of supply. 2 Rats., 194, 6. Or the session may be closed for one, two,
three, or more days, and a new one commenced. But then all matters
depend ng must be finished, or they fall, and are to begin de novo. 3 ffats.t
94, 98. Or a part ol the subject may be taken up by another bill, or taken up
in a different way. 6 Orey, 804, 316.
And in cases of the last magnitude, this rule has not been so strictly and
verbally observed as to stop indispensable proceedings altogether. 2 Hats.^
92, 98. Thus when the address on the preliminaries of peace in 1782 had
been lost by a majority of one, on account of the importance of the question,
and smallness of the majority, the same question in substance, though with
some words not in the first, and which might change the opinion of some
members, was brought or. again and carried, as the motives for It wert
thought to outweigh the objection of form. 2 Hats., 99, 100.

When bills, passed in one house and sent to the other, are grounded on

When either house, e, ^., the House of Commons, sends a bill to the other,
the other may pass it with amendments. The regular progression in this case
is, that the commons disagreed to the amendment; the lords insist on it; the
commons insist on their disagreement; the lords adhere to their amendment;
the commons adhere to their disagreement. The term of insisting may be
repeated as often as they choose to keep the question open. But the first
adherence by either renders it necessary for the other to recede or adhere also;
when the matter is usually suffered to fall. 10 Grey^ 148. Latterly, however,
th'ere are instances of their having gone to a second adherence. There must
be an absolute conclusion of the subject somewhere, or otherwise transactions
between the houses would become endless. 3 Hats.^ 268, 270. The term of
Insisting, we are told by Sir John Trevor, was then (1G79> newly Introduced
into parliamentary usage by the lords. 7 Grey^ 94. It was certainly a happy
innovation, as it multiplies the opportunities of trying modifications which
may bring the houses to concurrence. Either house, however, is free to pass
over the term of insisting, and to adhere in the firsx instance; 10 Grey^ 14(5;
but it is not respectful to the other. In the ordinary parliamentary course,
there are two free conferences, at least, before an adherence. 10 Grey^ 147.
Either house may recede from its amendment and agree to the bill ; or recede
from their disagreement to the amendment, and agree to the same absolutely,
or with an amendment; for here the disagreement and receding destroy one
another, and the subject stands as before the disagreement. Ehynge^ 23, 27;

amendment; for the same reason tli^t It cannot send to the other honse aa
amendment to Its own act after it has passed the act. They may modify an
amendment from the other honse by ingrafting an amendment on it, because
they have never assented to it; but they cannot amend their own amendment,
becaase they have, on the question, passed it in that form. 9 Orey^ 868; 13

hered to their amendment, and the other agrees with an amendment, can the
first honse depart Arom the form which they have fixed by an adherence.
In the case of a money bill, the lordb* proposed amendments become, by
delay, confessedly neccessary. The commons, however, refhsed them, as in-
fringing on their privileges as to money bills ; bat they ofilsred themselves to
add to the bill a proviso to the same effect, which had no coherence with the
lords* amendments; and urged that it was an expedient warranted by prece-
dent, and not unparliamentary in a case become impracticable, and irremedi-
able in any other way. 8 HaU.^ 256, 266, 270, 271. But the lords refused, and
the bill was lost. 1 Ohand.y 288. A like case, 1 Chand,, 811. So the com-

A motion to amend an amendment flrom the other House takes precedence

A bill originating In one House is passed by the other with an amendment.
The originating House agrees to their amendment with an amendment. The
other may agree to their amendment with an amendment, that being only in
the 2d and not the 3d degree; for, as to the amending House, the first amend-
ment with which they passed the bill is a part of its text; it is the only text
they have agreed to. The amendment to that text by the originating House,
therefore, is only in the Ist degree, and the amendment to that again by the
amending House is only in the 2d, to- wit: an amendment tu an amendment,
and so admissible. Just so, when, on a bill from the originating House, the
other, at its second reading makes an amendment; on the third reading this
amendment is become the text of the bill, and if an amendment to It be
moved, an amendment to that amendment may also be moved, as being only
in the 2d degree.

CONFBBBNOKA
It is on the occasion of amendments between the Houses that conferences
are usually asked; but they may be asked in all cases of difference of opinion
between the two Houses on matters depending between them. The request
of a conference, however, must always be with tli^e House which is possessed
of the papers. 8 Hats,^ 31 ; 1 Grey^ 425.
I Conferences may be either simple or free. At a conference simply, written
reasons are prepaxed by the House asking it, and they are read and delivered,
without debate, to the managers of the other Hoaae at the conferei.ee; but are
not then to be answered; 4 Orey^ 144. The other House, then, if satisfied, vote

Grevt 183. They are meant chiefly to record the Jnrisdiction of each House to
the nation at large, and to posterity, and in proof that the miscarriage of a
necessary measure is not imputable to them. SOrey^^tSb. At free conferences
the managers discuss, viva voce and freely, and interchange propositions for
such modiflcations as may be made in a parliamentary way, and may bring th*
sense of the two Houses together. And each party reports in writing to their
respective Houses the subsCance of what«ls said on both sides, and it is enter-
ed in their Journals. 9 Oreyt 290 ; 8 J?afo., 280. This report cannot be amended
or altered, as that of a committee may be. Journal qf Senate^ May 24, 1796.
A conference may be asked, before the House asking it has come to a reso-
lution of disagreement, insisting or adhering. 8 HaU,^ 260, 841. In which
case the papers are not left with the other conferees, but are brought back to
be the foundation of the vote to be given. And this is the most reasonable and
respectfhl proceeding; for, as was urged by the lords on a particular occasion,
** it is held vain, and below the wisdom of Parliament, to reason or argue
against fixed resolutions, and upon terms of impossibility to persuade.*' 8
JETate., 226. So the commons say, ** an adherence is never delivered at a free
conference, which implies debate." 10 Or^y^ 187. And on another occasion
the lords made it an objection that the commons had asked a free conference
after they had made resolutions of adhering. It was then afiirmed, however,
on the part of the commons, that nothing was more parliamentary than to pro-
ceed with free conferences after adhering, {ZJIats.,, 269,) and we do in fact see
inferences of conferences, or of free conference, asked after the resolution of
disagreeing, (3 ffata., 251, 253, 260, 288, 291, 316, 349;) of insisting, (/&., 280, 296,
299, 319, 8^ 355;) of adhering, (269, 270, 283, 300;) and oven of a second or final
adherence. Zffats.^ 270. And in all cases of conference asked after a vote of
disagreement, etc., the conferees of] the House asking it are to leave the
papers with the conferees of the other; and In one case where they refused
to receive them, they were left on the table in the conference chamber. Jft^
817, 323, 864; 10 Grey, 146.
After a firee conference, the usage is to proceed with free conferences, and
not return again to a conference. 8 Bats.* 270; 9 Grey^ 229.
After a conference denied, a flree conference may be asked. 1 Grey^ 45.
When a conference is asked, the subject of it must be expressed, or the
conference not agreed to. Ord. H. Com,y 89; 1 Grey^ 425; 7 Grty^ 31. Th^
are sometimes asked to inquire concerning an offense or default of a member
of the other House. 6 Gr«y^ 181 ; 1 Chand,^ 804. Or the failure of the other
House to present to the King a bill passed by both Houses. 8 Grey^ 303. Or

been departed from by the other, a conference is asked to come to a right un-
derstanding thereon. 10 Grey, 148. So when an unparliamentary message has
been sent, instead of answering it, they ask a conference. 8 Grey, 155. Voih

Messages between the Houses are to be sent only while both Honses are
sitting. 8 Hats., 15. They are received during debate without ac^ouming
the debate. S^ate., 22.
[In Senate the messengers are introduced in any state of business, except,
1. While a question is putting. 2. While the yeas and nays are calling. 8.
While the ballots are counting. Sule 47. The first case is short; the second
and third are cases where any interruption might occasion errors difficult to
be corrected. So arranged June 15, 1788.]
In the House of Representatives, as in Parliament, if the House be in com-
mittee when a messenger attends, the Speaker takes the chair to receive the
message, and then quits it to return into committee, without any question
er interruption. 4 Grey, 226.
Messengers are not saluted by the members, but by the Speaker of the
House. 8 (7r«y, 253, 274.
If messengers commit an error in delivering their message, they may be
admitted or called in to correct their message. 4 Grey, 41. Accordingly,
March 13, 1800, the Senate having made two amendments to a bill from the
House of Representatives, their Secretary, by mistake, delivered one only,
which being inadmissible by itself, that House disagreed, and notified the
Senate of their disagreement. This produced a discovery of the mistake. The
Secretary was sent to the other House to correct his mistake, the correction
was received, and the two amendments acted on de novo.
As soon as the messenger, who has brought the bills from the other House,
has retired, the Speaker holds the bills in bis hand, and acquaints the House
" that the other House have by their messenger sent certain bills," and then
reads their titles, and delivers them to the Clerk, to be safely kept till they
shall be called for to bo read. Eakew,, 178.
It is not the usage for one House to inform the other by wnat numbers a
bill has passed. 10 Grey, 150. Yet they have sometimes recommended a
bill as of great importance, to the consideration of the House to which it is
sent. 3 Hate., 25. Nor when they have rejected a bill from the other House,
do they give notice of it; but it passes sub silcntio, to prevent unbecoming
altercations. 1 BlackaU, 183.
[But in Congress the rejection is notified by message to the House in which
the bill originated.]

sage, but only at a conference ; for this is an Interrogatory, not a message. 1
Grey, 151, 181.
When a bill is sent by one Honse to the other, and is neglected, they maj
send a message to remind them of it. 8 Uata.y 25; 5 Grey^ 164. But if it be
more inattention, it is better to have it done informally, by communication
between the Speakers or members of the two Houses.
Where the subject of a message is of a nature that can properly be com-
municated to both houses of Parliament, it is expected that this communica-
tion should be made to both on the same day. But where a message was
accompanied with an original declaration, signed by the party to which the
message referred, its being sent to one house was not noticed by the other,
because the declaration, being original, could not possibly be sent to both
houses at the same time. 2 Hats., 260, 261, 262.
The King having sent original letters to the commons, afterwards desires
they may be returned, that he may communicate them to the lords. 1 (7Aan-

The House which has received a bill and passed it, may present it for the
King's assent, and ought to do it, though they have not by message notified
to the other their passage of it. Yet the notifying by message is a form
which ought to be observed between thatwo houses, from motives of respect
and good understanding. 2 Eats,, 142. Were the bill to be withheld from
being presented to the King, it would be an infringement of the rules of Par-
liament, lb,
[When a bill has passed both houses of Congress, the house last acting on
it notifies its passage to the other, and delivers the bill to the Joint Com-
mittee of Enrollment, who see that it is truly enrolled in parchment.] When
the bill is enrolled, it is not to be written in paragraphs, but solidly, and all
of a piece, that the blanks between the paragraphs may not give room for
forgery. 9 Grey, 143. [It is then put in the hands of the Clerk of the House
of Representatives to have it signed by the Speaker. The Clerk then brings
it by way of message to the Senate to be signed by their President. The
Secretary of the Senate returns it to the Committee of Enrollment, who
present it to the President of the United States. If he approve, he signs,
and deposits it among the rolls in the office of the Secretary of State, and no«
tifles by message the honse in which it originated that he has approved and
signed It; of which that house informs the other by message. If the Presi-
dent disapproves, ho is to return it with his objections to that house In which
It shall have'originated, who are to enter the objections at large on their Jour-
nal, and proceed to reconsider it. If, after such reconsideration, two-thirds
of that honse shall agree to pass the bill, it shall be sent together with the
President's objections to the other house, by which it shall likewise be re-
eonsidered; and if approved by two-thirds of that house, it shall become

JOURNALS.
[Each house shall keep a journal of its proceedings, and Arom time to time
publish the same, excepting such parts as may, in their judgment, require
secrecy. Comt.^ I, 5.]
[The proceedings of the Senate, when not acting as in a Committee of the
Whole, shall be entered on the Journals as concisely as possible, care being
taken to detail a true account of the proceedings. Every vote of the Senate
shall be entered on the Journals, and a brief statement of the contents of
each petition, memorial, or paper presented to the Senate, be also inserted
on the Journal. Rule 33.]
[The titles of bills, and such parts thereof only, as shall be affected by pro-
posed amendments, shall be inserted on the journals. Rule 82.]
If a question is interrupted by a vote to adjourn, or to proceed to the orders
of the day, the original question is never printed in the journal, it never hav-
ing been a vote, nor introductory to any vote; but when suppressed by the
previous question, the first qacstion must be stated, in order to introduce
and make intelligible the second. 2 Hats.y 83.
So also when a question is postponed, adjourned, or laid on the table, the
original question, though not yet a vote, must be expressed in the journals;
because it makes part of the vote of postponement, adjourning, or laying it
on the table.
Where amendments are made to a question, those amendments are not
printed in the journals, separated from the question; but only the question
as finally agreed to by the House. The rule of entering in the journals only
what the House has agreed to, is founded in great prudence and good sense;
as there may be many questions proposed, which it may be improper to pub-
lish to the world in the form in which they are made. 2 Hata.^ 85.
[In both houses of Congress, all questions whereon the yeas and nays are

[Congress separate in two ways only, to wit: by adjournment, or dissolution
by the efflux of their time. What, then, constitutes a session with themT A
dissolution closes one session, and the meeting of the new Congress begins
another. The Constitution authorizes the President, " on extraordinary occar
sions to convene both houses, or either of them." (I. 3.) If convened by the
President's proclamation, this must begin a new session, and, of course, de-
termine the preceding one to have been a session. So if it meets under the
clause of the Constitution, which says, ** the Congress shall assemble at least
once in every year, and such meeting shall be on the first Monday in Decem-
ber, unless they shall by law appoint a diffterent day," (1. 4,) this must begin
a new session; for even if the last adjournment was to this day, the act of
a^oummcnt is merged in the higher authority of the Constitution, and the
meeting will be under that and not under their ac^'oumment. So for we have
fixed landmarks for determining sessions. In other cases it is declared by the
joint vote authorizing the President of the Senate and Speaker to close the
session on a fixed day, which is usually in the following form: Resolved by
the Senate and House of Representatives, That the President of the Senate and
Speaker of the House of Hcprcscntatives be authorized to close the present

[The President of the United States has power, by and with the advice and

Treaties are legislative acts. A treaty is the law of the land. It differs
from other laws only as it must have the consent of a foreign nation, being
but a contract with respect to that nation. In all countries, I believe, except
England, treaties are made by the legislative power; and there also, if they
touch the laws of the land, they must be approved by Parliament. Ware v.
Hayton, 3 Dallas^ Bept^ 223. It is acknowledged, for instance, that the King
of Grept Britain cannot by a treaty make a citizen of an alien. VatUl^ 6., 1,
c. 19, sec, 214. An act of Parliament was necessary to validate the American
treaty of 1783. And abundant examples of such acts can be cited. In the
case of the treaty of Utrecht, in 1712, the commercial articles required the
concurrence of Parliament; but a bill brought in for that purpose was
rejected. France, the other contracting party, suffered these articles, inprae-
tice, to be not insisted on, and adhered to the rest of the treaty. 4 BussePs
Hist, Mod, Europe, 457; 2 Smollet, 242, 246.
[By the Constitution of the United States this department of legislation is
confined to two branches only of the ordinary legislature; the President
originating, and the Senate having a negative. To what subjects this power
extends has not been defined in detail by the Constitution ; nor are we en-
tirely agreed among ourselves. 1. It is admitted that it must concern the
foreign nation party to the contract, or it would be a mere nullity, res inter
alios acta. 2. By the general power to make treaties, the Constitution must
have intended to comprehend only those subjects which are usually regulated
by treaty, and cannot be otherwise regulated. 3. It must have meant to ex-
cept out of these rights reserved to the States ; for surely the President and
Senate cannot do by treaty what the whole government is interdicted from
doing in any way. 4. And also to except those subjects of legislation in
which it gave a participation to the House of Representatives. This last
exception is denied by some, on the ground that it would leave very little
matter for the treaty power to work on. The less the better, say others.
The Constitution thought it wise to restrain the Executive and Senate from
entangling and embroiling our affairs with those of Europe. Besides, as the
negotiations are carried on by the Executive alone, the subjecting to the rat-
ification of the representatives such articles as are within their participation,
is no more inconvenient than to the Senate. But the ground of this excep-
tion is denied as unfounded. For examine, «, g. the treaty of commerce with

France, and it will be fonnd that, ont of thirty-one articles, there are not
more than email portions of two or three of them which would not stiU
remain as subjects of treaties, untouched by these exceptions.]
Treaties being declared, equally with the laws of the United States, to be
the supreme law of the land, it is understood that an act of the legislature
alone can declare them infringed and rescinded. This was accordingly the
process adopted in the case of France in 1798.
[It has been the usage for the Executive, when it communicates a treaty to
the Senate for their ratification, to communicate also the correspondence of
the negotiators. This having been omitted in case of the Prussian treaty,
was asked by a vote of the House, of February 1^ 1800, and was obtained.
A.nd in December, 1800, the convention ofthat year between the United States
and France, with the report of the negotiations by the envoys, but not their
instructions, being laid before the Senate, the instructions were asked for,
and communicated by the President,]
[The mode of voting on questions of ratification is by nominal call.]
[Whenever a treaty shall be laid before the Senate for ratification, it shall be
read a first time for information only; when no motion to reject, ratify, or
modify the whole, or any part, shall be received. Its second reading shall be
for consideration, and on a subsequent day, when it shall be taken up as in a
committee of the whole, and every one shall be free to move a question on any
particular article, in this form: ** Will the Senate advise and consent to the
ratification of this article?** or to propose amendments thereto, either by
inserting or by leaving out words, in which last case the question shall be,
" shall the words stand part of the article? " And in every of the said cases,
the concurrence- of two- thirds of the Senators present shall be requisite to
decide affirmatively. And when, through the whole, the proceedings shall be
stated to the House, and questions be again severally put thereon, for confirm-
ation, or new ones proposed, requining in like manner a concurrence of two-
thirds for whatever is retained or inserted.]
[The votes so confirmed shall, by the House, or a committee thereof, be
reduced into the form of a ratification, with nr without modifications, as may
have been decided, and shall be proposed on a subsequent day, when every
one shall again be free to move amendments, either by inserting or leaving out
words ; in which last case the question shall be, " Shall the words stand part

These are the provisions of the Constitution of the United States on the
subject of impeachments. The following is a sketch of some of the princi-
ples and practices of England on the same subject:
Jurisdiction. The Lords cannot impeach any to themselves, nor join in
the accusation, because they are the judges. 8eld. Judie. in Pari., 12, 63.
Kor can they proceed against a commoner but on complaint of the Commons,
/ft., 84. The Lords may not, by the law, try a commoner for a capital offlense,
on the information of the King or a private person, because the accused is
entitled to a trial by his peers generally; but on accusation by the House of
Commons, they may proceed against the delinquent, of whatsoever degree,
and whatsoever be the nature of the offense; for there they do not assume to
themselves trial at common law. The commons are then instead of a jury,
and the judgment is given on their demand, which is instead of a verdict. So
the Lords do only judge, but not try the delinquent, /d., 6, 7. But Woodde-
son denies that a commoner can now be charged capitally before the Lords,
even by the commons; and cites Fitzhanis^s case, 1881, impeached for high
treason, where the Lords remitted the prosecution to the inferior court. 8

Accusation. The Commons, as the grand inquest of the nation, become
suitors for penal justice. 2 Woodd., 507; 6 Grey, 856. The general course is
to pass a resolution containing a criminal charge against the supposed delin-
quent, and then to direct some member to impeach him by oral accusation, at
the bar of the House of Lords, in the name of the Commons. The person
signifies that the articles wHl be exhibited, and desires that the delinquont
may be sequestered firom his seat, or be committed, or that the peers ^ ill

Process, If a party do not appear, proclamations are to be issued, giving
him a day to appear. On their return they are strictly examined. If any
error be found in them, a new proclamation issnes, giving a short day. If he
appear not, his goods may be arrested and they may proceed. 8eld.Ju<id.t 98, 99.
Articles, The accusation (articles) of the Commons is substituted in place
of an indictment. Thus, by the usage of Parliament, in Impeachment for
writing or speaking, the particular words need not be specified. Sach. Tr.y

Appearance. If he appears, and the case be capital, he answers in custody ;
though not if the accusations be general. He is not to be committed but on
special accusations. If it be for a misdemeanor only, he answers, a Lord in
his place, a Commoner at the bar, and not in custody, unless, on the answer,
the Lords find cause to commit him, till he finds sureties to attend, and lest he
should fly. 8eld. Judd., 98, 99. A copy of the articles is given him, and a
day fixed for his answer. T. Bay; 1 Sushto., 268; FosL, 282; 1 Clar, Hist, qf
the JSeb,, 879. Or a misdemeanor his appearance may bo in person, or he may
answer in writing, or by attorney. Seld. Judd., IQO. The general rule on
accusations for a misdemeanor is, that in such a state of liberty or restraint
as the party is when the commons complain of him., in such he is to answer.

meanors the party has a right to counsel by the common law ; but not in cap*
ital cases. Seld. Judd., 102-5.
Answer. The answer need not observe great strictness of form. He may
plead guilty as to part, and defend as to the residue; or, saving all exceptions,
deny the whole or give a particular answer to each article separately. 1 Sush.,

Witnesses. The practice is to swear the witnesses in open House, and then
examine them there ; or a committee maybe named, who shall examine them
in committee, either on interrogatories agreed on in the House, or such as the
committee in their discretion shall demand. Seld. Jud., 120, 123.
Jury. In the case of Alice Pierce, (1 i?. 2,) a Jury was empaneled for her trial
before a committee. Seld. Jud., 123. But this was on a complaint, not on im-
peachment by the commons. Seld. Jud., 163. It must also have been for a
misdemeanor only, as the lords spiritual sat in the case, which they do on mis-
demeanors, but not in capital cases. Id., 148. The Judgment was a forfeiture
of all her lands and goods. Id., 188. This, Selden says, is the only Jurr bt

finds recorded in Parliament for misdemeanor; but he makes no doabt, if the
delinquent doth pnt himself on trial of his country a Jory onght to be im-
paneled, and he auds that it is not so on impeachment by the commons ; for
they are in loco proprio, and there no jury ought to be empaneled. Id. 124.
The Ld. Berkeley, 6^., 3, was arraigned for the,murder of L.^ 2, on an informa-
tion on the part of the King, and not impeachment of the commons ; for
then they had been patria sua. He waived his peerage, and was tried by a
jury of Gloucestershire and Warwickshire, /d., 125. In 1 ff.^ 7, the commons
protest that they are not to be considered as parties to any judgment given, or
hereafter to be given in Parliament. 3eid. Jud.^ 188. They have been gen
erally and more justly considered, as is before stated, as the grand jury; for
the conceit of Selden is certainly not accurate, and they are.the patria sua of
the accused, and that the Lords dol>nly judge, but not try. It is undeniable
that they do try; for they examine witnesses as to the facts, and acquit or
condemn, according to their own belief of them. And Lord Hale says, ** the
peers are judges of law as well as of fact;" (2 HaUy P. C, 275;) consequently
of fact as well as of law. '
Presencs of Commons, The Commons are to be present at the examina-
tion of witnesses. Seld. Jud,y 124. Indeed, they are to attend throughout,
either as a committee of the whole House, or otherwise, at discretion,
appoint managers to conduct the proofs. Bmhw. Tr, qf Straff.^ 87; Com,
Joum.^ 4 Feb.y 1709-10; 2 Woodd.^ 614. And judgment is not to be given till
they demand it. Seld, Jud.y 124. But they are not to be present on impeach-
ment when the Lords consider of the answer of proofs and determine of their
judgment. Their presence, however, is necessary at the answer and judg-
mcnt in cases capital (Jd,, 58, 159) as well as not capital; (162.) The Lords
debate the judgment among themselves. Then the vote is first taken on the
question of guilty or not guilty ; and if they convict, the question, or paTticu*
lar sentence, is out of that which seemeth to be most generally agreed on.
8eld, Jud., 167; 2 Woodd., 612.
Judgment. Judgments in Parliament, for death, have been strictly guided
per legem terras, which they cannot alter; and not at all according to their
discretion. They can neither omit any legal part of the judgment nor add to
it. Their sentence must be secundum, non ultra legem. Seld. Jud.^ 168-171.
This trial, though it varies in external ceremony, yet differs not in essentials
from criminal prosecutions before inferior courts. The same rules of evi-
dence, the "same legal notions of crimes and punishments, prevailed; for
impeachments are not framed to alter the law, but to carrjr it into more
effectual execution against two powerful delinquents. The judgment, there-
fore, is to be such as is warranted by legal principles or precedents. 6 Sta.

[The following was prepared with tpedal reference to the coBtoma preTaUlng U)
Oie Aaaembly. It will be found equally applicable to the proceedings of the Sen*
ate.— Coxpu^B.]
Organization
The Xiegislature convenes at 12 o^clock, M.. on the second Wcdnesdaj ol
Janaary in each year.
Custom, so prevalent and so ancient as to have the force of law, has made
it the duty of the Chief Clerk of the previous Assembly to call to order, and
to conduct the proceedings generally, until a Speaker is chosen.
The Secretary of State furnishes to the Clerk a certified statement of tht
names of the members elect, which is read. The members then advance to
the Clerk''8 desk, generally the delegation of each county by itself, and sub-
scribe to the oath of office.
It often happens, that by neglect of the proper county officer, to return the
proceedings of the county canvassers, some members find their election not
to be on record in the Secretary's office. In such case the certificate held by
the member himself should be produced to the clerk. This answers every
purpose, and should always be secured by members elect, Arom the clerk of
their county.
The oath qt office Is then administered to the members elect. It may be
administered by the Speaker, the President of thu Senate, the Governor,
Secretary of State, Attorney General, or any of the Judges of the Supreme
Court It has been administered in this State, usually, by one of the judges.
Members coming in after the first day of the session are sworn in by the
Speaker.
After all are sworn, the roll Is called, when, if a quorum is found to be
present, the Clerk declares the House to be qualified and competent to
proceed to business.
If the parties in the Assembly have determined their choice for officers,
the election proceeds forthwith; If not, an adjournment is had nntil the nex»
day.
The election for Speaker, Clerk and Sergeant at-Arms is required to be fivf
90Ci^ and these «re the only offices the Aisembly ean fiU.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
114: WISCOKSIK BLUB BOOK.
The roll Is called, and each member announces audibly Uic name of the
candidate of his choice.
The Clerk announces the result, and names a committee to conduct tht
Speaker elect to the chair. The other elections proceed in the same manner,
except that when the result is announced by the Speaker, the officer elect ad
Tances to the Clerk's desk and is sworn In by the Speaker.
A committee is then appointed to wait on the Senate, and inform it that
the Assembly is organized; or the Clerk is directed, by resolution, to inform
the Senate of the fact.
A joint committee of both Houses is then appointed to convey a like mes-
sage to the Governor, and inform him that the Houses are in readiness to
receive any commuuicution from him.
The Senate and Assembly have usually assembled in Joint convention, in
the Assembly Chamber, upon some day and hour suggested by the Governor,
during the fir^t week of the session, to hear his annual message.
The message has been read usually by the Governor himself, but some-
times by Lis Private Secretary, and sometimes by the Clerk of one of the
Houses.
At the first opportunity after hearing the message read, the Ttrious recom
mendations therein contained are referred, by resolution, to appropriate
standing committees or select committees.
In the Assembly, standing committees are appointed by the Speaker at as
early a day in the session as is possible. In the Senate, the committees are
appointed by resolution of that body. The custom is for the party having
the majority to agree upon their members of the committees, in caucus.
The list is then handed to the other party, and the balance of the members
are named. When thus completed, the list is offered in the Senate in the
form of a resolution, that the standing committees be as therein named.
Drawing of Seata,
The drawing of seats by lot has been observed since the Assembly first
look possession of the new Assembly Chamber.
The method heretofore pursued Is as follows:
The members leave their seats, and take places in the open area behind
their seats. The Clerk ha>ing placed in a box, slips of paper containing the
names of the members respectively, a page or messenger draws them there-
from. The Clerk announces each name as it is drawn, and the member
named selects his seat, and occupies it until the drawing is completed. In
the Senate the seats are usually placed in such manner as will be most agreo-
a'ble to the Senators.

the state, and at a cost not exceeding twenty dollars for each, and shall leave
with the secretary of state a list of such papers as he may desire to have or-
dered in his behalf: and the secretary of state shall order the papers named
in such lists to be sent to the members and officers desiring the same, to the
amount above named.
Section 116. All accounts for newspapers furnished to members and offi-
cers of the legislature shall be verified by the affidavit of the claimant, stat-
ing that the newspapers were actually furnished by him to the members and
officers, naming them individually, upon the order of the secretary of state,
and that the rates charged therefor in such account are no more than the
published rates per annum of such papers for the lime they were taken by
such members or officers. Accounts so verified shall be audited by the sec-
retary of state so far as they correspond with his orders, made as aforesaid,
and paid out of the state treasury.
Tost- Office Arrangements,
The Assembly post-office Is in charge of a postmaster appointed by the
Sergeant-at-Arms. Each member has a separate box; and all mail matter
deposited with the postmaster is sent to the Madison post-office by the post-
office messenger, at regular hours, corresponding with the hours of closing
the mails at the Madison office.
Process of l^assing Sills.
Some diversity of practice exists herein, but the ordinary method in the
Assembly is as follows:
A member having prepared a bill and indorsed the title thereof, together
Digitized by VjOOQIC
CUSTOMS, PRECEDEJSiTS AND FORMS. 121
with his name, upon the back of it, rises to his feet, at such times as the
introduction of bills is in order, and says:
"Mr. Speaker:
If recognized, the Speaker responds:
" The gentleman from ."
The member announces :
" I ask leave to introduce a bill."
The bill is then sent to the Chief Clerk by a Messenger. The Clerk then
reads the title of the bill, and the Speaker announces:
" First reading of the bill."
If it is a bill appropriating money, the Clerk reads the bill at length; if
not, by its title only; when the Speaker announces:
" Second reading of the bill."
And refers the same to some standing committee, suggested by the mem-
ber, or, if desired, to a select committee; or to the general file, or, as is
usual, the Speaker of his own motion, makes the reference to such commit-
tee as seems to him appropriate.
The bill is, in due course, reported back to the Assembly by the commit-
tee, when it is placed in what is called the General File.
Bills m the General File are considered in Committee of the Whole in the
exact order In which they are placed upon the file. Proceedings in Commit-
tee of the Whole will be elsewhere considered.
After a Committee of the Whole has completed its action upon any bill,
and reported the same back to the Assembly, and any recommendation made
by the Committee passed upon, it is taken up in its order, when the Speaker
puts the following question:
** Shall this bill be engrossed, and read a third time? "
If decided affirmatively, the bill is sent by the Chief Clerk to the Engross-
ing Clerk for engrossment. Upon its return engrossed, the original and en-
grossed bills are placed in the hands of the Committee on Engrossed Billt^
who compare them and correct any errors which they may find. When found
correct, or made so, the Committee report them to the House, as correctly
engrossed, when the original Is filed by the Chief Clerk, and the engrossed
bill goes into the order of " bills ready for a third reading."
When, under the order of business, the bill is reached, the bill (unless it
appropriates money) is read by its title, when the Speaker says as follows:
**Thi8 bUl having been read three several times, the question is, shall the
bill pass?"
If the bill passes, it is taken to the Senate, with a message announcing its
passage by the Assembly, and asking the concurrence of the Senate
therein.
Going through with a similar process In the Senate, It is returned with a
message announcing the action there had upon It.
If the Senate cx>ncurs, the bill is sent to the Enrolling Clerk, who makes a
copy thereof, as is elsewhere described. When enrolled, it goes to the Com-
mittee on Enrolled BiUs^ who compare it with the engrossed bill ; when found
or made correct, they report the bill to the Assembly as correctly enrolled;

122 WISCONSIN BLUE BOOK.
the engrossed bill is filed by the Chief Cl«rk; the enrolled bill is tl
endorsed by the Chief Clerk as having originated in the Assemoiy, (tor ,
information firtlm€«v«nkor, in case he vetoes it,) then it is signed oy
Speaker, and sent by the Chief Clerk to the President of the Senate, desir
the signature of the President of the Senate thereto. The Committee
Enrolled Bills of the two Houses, acting jointly, then present the bill, d
signed, to the Governor, for his approval, and report that fact to the Hou
The Governor, if he approves the bill, informs the House in which it orig
ated, of the fact, and that he has deposited it with the Secretary of State.
This is the ordinary process of a bill through all its stages until it becoi
ft law. A bill of great interest or importance, or one which is warmly c
tested, may, by reason of majority and minority reports, special ordi
recommitment, amendments, substitutes, committees of conference, i
various other parliamentary appliances, pass through a vast variety of sta
not before enumerated.
Senate bills coming into the Assembly, after passing the Senate, are i
twice by title, (unless they appropriate money, when they must be rea<
length), and then referred to the appropriate committee.
After consideration in Committee of the Whole, the recommendation of
Committee is acted upon m the Assembly— the question being aftoi reo
mcndations are disposed of,
'' Shall this bill be ordered to a third reading?'*
If it is decided affirmatively, the bill passes into the order of "bills
third reading," and when reached in that order, the questiion is,
'' ShaU this bUl be concurred int'*
If concurred in, the bill is returned to the Senate, with the message Info
ing it of that fact.
If it is desired to hasten the passage of the bill, it is done by mo'don as
lows:
»' I move to suspend all rules which will interfere with the immediate pi
age of bill No. , Assembly, entitled * a bill to .' "
If this motion prevails, which requires an affirmative vote of two-third
the members present, the question will be put on the passage of the bill ;
if passed, it will go at once to the Senate.
Committee of the Whole.*
The Committee of the Whole is an expedient to simplify the businea
legislative bodies. No record is made of its proceedings, and it has
officers except of its own creation, for temporary purposes. It is liabl
instant dissolution, in case of disorder, when the Speaker takes the Chai
suppress it, in case of lack of quorum, when the Speaker takes the CI
for a Call of the House or an adjournment, and in case of a mess&ge A:om
Senate or Governor, when the Speaker takes the chair to reoeive It.
* The Senate does no business in Committee of the WLole.

The Assemb]/ may resolve itself Into a Committee of the Whole, on some
particular bill, rosolntlon or subject, or it may go into Committee of the
Whole upon the general file of bills. In the first case the motion is,
'' That the Assembly do now resolve itself into a Committee of the Whole
upon [bUl No — , Am a bill ] or [Joint resolution No. — » A., providini^,
etc. ] or [upon all bills relating to as th€ case may &<}."]
In the second case it is,
*' That the Assembly do now resolve itself into a Committee of the Wholo
upon the general file of bills."
Bills, resolutions and general matters which have been once considered in
Committee of the Wliole, in which progress has been made and leave granted
for further consideration, have the preference. The motion of the Commit>
tee of the Whole for their further consideration, must be made under the
bead of ** bills in which the Committee of the Whole have made progress
and obtained leave to sit again ;" and in which case the member who presided
when the same matter was previously considered in Committee of the Whole,
resumes the chair, unless the Speaker names a different member.
The motion of the Committee of the Whole upon the general file must be
made under the order of *^ bills not yet considered in Committee of the
Whole."
When the Assembly resolves itself into Committee of the Whole, the
Sneaker selects a Chairman, as follows :
"The gentleman from , Mr. — , will take the Chair."
The appointed Chairman advances to the Speaker's desk, and having taken
the Chair, receives from the Clerk the papV^rs indicated by the motion for
the committee, when the Chairman announces :
"GxNTLBMEN:>-The committee have under consideration, bill No.—,
entitled , (reading the title from the hack qftJie bill. Or m case qfcow-
Hderation of the general JUe^) the committee have under consideration the
general file of bills ; the first in order is bill No. —, entitled .
" The first section is as follows :"
The Chairman then reads the first section, and asks—
"Are there any amendments proposed to the first section t"
If none are offered, the Chairman says:
" No amendments being offered to the first section, the second section will
be read."
This process is continued through the whole bill, when at the close of the
reading the Chairman says :
"The — th section and the whole bill have now been read, and are open to
amendment"
At this point, after the friends of the bill have perfected it, it is customary
for the opponents of the bill to open their attack.
After the discussion of the bill to such an extent as may be desired, if no
•mendments are made, the final vote is generally upon a motion—
"That the bill be reported back to the House without amendment"

124 wiscoKsm blub book.
II any otlier tffls are before the committee, they are proceeded with In the
same manner. If it is desired to have a farther consideration of any mattci
befofe the committee, or if the general file has not been gone throngh with,
the motion is,
'*That the committee rise, report progress, and ask leave to sit again/*
If the committee has completed its daties, the motion is,
"That the committee rise and report."
Which being analagons to a motion to ac^onm. Is not debatable. The
Chairman states the matter as follows:
" It is moved that the committee do now rise and report [or oiherwU*^ at
tJu case may be.'\
*' Is the committee ready for the question f
** Gentlemen :~Those who are of opinion that this committee do now rise
and report (or as the case may be ),Bay aye ; those of contrary opinion, say no."
In case of doubt, a division mnst be had, as the ayes and noes caun 3t b«
called in Committee of the Whole.
When the committee rises, the Speaker resumes hie seat, and the Chair
man, in his place on the floor, reports as follows:
"Mr. Speaker."
The Speaker answers—
** Mr. Chairman."
Who reports —
** The Committee of the Whole have had under consideration bill No. -
A., entitled , and have instructed me to report the same to the Housf
with amendment," [or as the case may be,]
When the general file has been under consideration, the report is as follows *.
" The Committee of the Whole have had under consideration the general
file of bills, have gone through the same, and have directed me to report to
the House the bills contained therein, with sundry amendments and recom-
mendations, as follows, to wit:" [Here follows the title qf bills considered^
with action taken upon them.]
In case the file has been left unfinished, the report is—
"TheCommitteeof the Whole have had under consideration the general
file of bills, and have made some progress therein. I am directed to report
back the following bills, with the amendments and recommendations here-
inafter specified, and ask leave for the committee to sit again." [Jlere fol-
tows the report qf amendments^ etc.y as above.]
On the latter report the question is —
*» Shall leave be granted?"
When, upon a count. It is ascertained that a quorum is not present, the
report is—
•*The Committee of the Whole have had under consideration ♦ and
after some progress therein, find there is no quorum present; that fact I
herewith report to you."

In case of conftision or disorder, the Speaker, of his own accord, resninetf
the Chair temporarily, and without any formality, for the purpose of sup-
pressing it. When order is restored, the Chairman resumes the Chair and
the business proceeds.
Upon the coming in of a report, the recommendations are at once acted
on by the Assembly.
When, in Committee of the Whole, any member desires to offer an amend-
ment, it must be reduced to writing and. sent to the Chairman, who reads ii,
and asks—
" Is the committee ready for the question upon the amendment?^*
And if no further amendment or debate, he puts the question in the usual
manner.
After a section is once passed, with an unsuccessful effort to amend it, no
fhrther amendments are in order. The strictness of this rule is, howeyer, not
always adhered to— an amendment once made, may, hewever, be reconsid-
ered. Such a motion is-^
•• That the amendment offered by the gentlemen from , to the — th
■ection, be reconsidered;**
And is stated as follows:
" The gentleman fW)m , moyes that the amendment offered by the
gentleman from , to the — th section be reconsidered.
** Is the Committee ready for the question?
** Those who are of the opinion that said amendment be reconsidered, say
aye; those of a contrary opinion, say no.**
In case the amendment is reconsidered, the Chairman, says :
**The motion is carried. The amendment is reconsidered. The question
now recurs upon the adoption of the amendment. Is the Committee ready
for the question,** etc. ?

HISTORICAL SKETCH OF WISCONSIN.
Thx state of Wisconsin is sitnated between latitude 42 degrees 80 minutes
•nd 47 degrees 20 minutes north, and between longitude 87 degrees 30 min-
tttes. and 92 degrees 30 minutes west of Greenwich, near London, England.
It is bounded on the north by Lake Superior, on the east by Michigan and
Lake Michigan, on the south by Illinois, and on the west by the Mississippi
riTer, and the states of Iowa and Minnesota. It has an average length of
about aOO miles, breadth 215 miles, and an area of 56,000 square miles, or
85,840,000 acres. Deducting Ax>ra this the surface occupied by lakes, rivers,
etc, there remain 53,924 square miles, or 34,511,860 acres of land.
The territory, of which Wisconsin forms a part, was originally connected
with the Canadas, and was under the French and British dominion. It be-
came a part of the territory of the Northwest at the close of the revolutionary
war, by the treaty of 1788, confirmed by the treaty of 1795; but tlie United
States did not take formal possession of the territory now comprising this
state until 1816. In the meantime, Virginia and other states ceded to the
government all their claims to the territory northwest of the Ohio river, and
congress, by the ''ordinance of 1787,'^ provided for its government as the
*^ Northwest Territory,'' and it was enacted that ''there shall be neither
slavery nor involuntary servitude in the said territory,'' and that there
should be formed from such territory, as the population should Justify, " not
less than three nor more than five states.^^ Wisconsin was the fiftJi state
thus organized from the territory— Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan
having been previously admitted into the Union.
Wisconsin was afterwards included in the Indiana territory, which was
organized in 1800, then In the Illinois territory, organized in 1809, and in
1818, when Illinois was admitted into the Union as a state, It was attached
to the territory of Michigan. In 1823, Wisconsin was made part of a sepa-
rate Judicial circuit, and in 1836, was organized as a territory, with Henr>'
Dodge as governor. The first legislature met at Belmont, now in La Fayette
county, October 25, 1836, and the next session was convened at Burlington,
now in the state of Iowa, November 6, 1837. In 1886, the seat of government
was permanently located at Madison, where the legislature met for the first
time November 26, 1838.
In April, 1846, the people voted in favor of a state government. On the
16th of December, a constitution was adopted in convention, which was re-
jected by a vote of the people. February 1, 1848, a second constitution was
Adopted in convention, which was ratified by the people on the 13th of
March, In that year, and on the 29th day of May, Wisconsin became a state

STATE INSTITUTIONS.
'VTisconsin, thotigh one of the youngest states in the Union, already ranks
among the foremost In its public institutions. For its educational advan-
tages, it is largely indebted to the munificence of Congress in donating
lands for the support of public schools, a state university, normal schools
and an agricultural college. There are now in successful operation in this
State, a University, comprising several colleges, and four normal schools,
toward the endowment and maintenance of which the legislature has appro-
priated comparatively an insignificant sum. Their fund, their grounds, their
buildings, the pay of their teachers, have all been the gift of the general
government. The game might be said of the common school fund. The
children of this State are largely indebted to the liberality of congress for
the educational advantages that are vouchsafed to them.
Toward its unfortunate and criminal classes, the State has pursued a
liberal policy. By direct appropriations from the treasury, the people of
Wisconsin have contributed for the upbuilding and support of penal and
charitable institutions, the following sums: For the State Prison, $1,036,-
655.44; for the Industrial School for Boys, |907,907.43; for the Industrial
School for Girls, $35,000; for the Institute for the Blind, $745,465.88; for tho
Deaf and Dumb, $886,734.12; for the State Hospital for the Insane, $2,195.-
281.85; for the Nortl^ern Hospital, $1,660,652.11; for tho Soldiers' Orphans'
Home, $367 ,256 .47 — making a total of 17, 682, 925 .44. Whether these appro-
priations were wise, or whether they have been Judiciously applied, are not
proper subjects for inquiry and discussion in a work which aims only to fur-
nish statistics. These expenditures for charitable and correctional purposes
may not be too large, but they present a striking contrast to the amount
expended by the state on its higher institutions of learning, and suggest a
comparison between the number who have been directly benefitted by these
two classes of appropriations. The one is for a noble charity from which
the state can expect but little return; the other is a prudent investment for
which society receives a full equivalent in a more intelligent, virtuous and
nsefol citizenship.

THE STATE CAPITOL.
The site of the present State Capitol was selected by the Hon. Jambs B.
DoTT, October 27, 18:36, and in December of the same year the territorial
legislatnre, in session at Belmont, passed an act to establish the Capital at
Madison. Messrs. Jambs D. Doty, A. A. Bird and John F. O^Nbill were
appointed by the general government commissioners for constmcting the
capitol, and wort^ was commenced on the building in the month of June fol-
lowing, under the direction of Mr. Bibo. On the 4th of July, 18S7, the comer-
stone was laid with appropriate ceremonies. The legislature met for the
first time in Madison, November 26, 18B8. The capitol building was not then
In a suitable condition for the sessions of that body, so it assembled in the
basement of the old American House, where Gov. Dodob delivered his annual
message. Here the Legislature met and adjourned from day to day, until
temporary arrangements could be made for the reception of members in the
Assembly Hall. During 1836 and 1837, the national government appropriated
$40,000 for the capitol building; Bane county, $4,000; and the territorial
legislature about $16,000; making the complete cost of the old capitol $60,000.
The building, when finished, was a substantial structure, which, in archi-
tectural design and convenience of arrangement, compared favorably with the
capitols of adjacent and older states.
The warranty deed of the capitol square was given to the Territory, in con-
sideration of $1.00 received, and the benefits and advantages to be derived
from the location, by Stbvbns T. Mason, Julia O. Mason and Kintzino
Pbichett, of Detroit, and through their attorney, Mosbs M. Stbono. It is
dated. Mineral Point, 16th January, 1839; and the square is' described as sec-
tions 18, 14, 23 and 24, in township 7, range 9 east This interesting docu-
ment is now on file in the ofllce of the State Treasurer.
On the admission of Wisconsin into the Union as a state, in 1848, the con-
stitntional convention then permanently located the capital at Madison. The
capitol building proving inadequate to the growing wants of the State, the
legislature of 1857 provided for its enlargement By this act, the commis-
sioners of school and university lands were directed to sell the ten sections
of land appropriated by congress '' for the completion of public buildings,^*
and apply the proceeds toward enlarging and improving the state capitol.
The state also appropriated $30,000 for the same object, and $50,000 was given
by the city of Madison. The Governor and Secretary of State were made
commissioners for conducting the work, which was begun in the fall of 1857,
and continued from year to year until 1869, when the dome was completed.
The total appropriations for the enlargement of the capitol and fior the im-

provemcnt of tho park to the present time are 1629^992 54. This does not
include the earn of |6,500 appropriated^ in 1875^ for macadamizing to the cen*
ter of the streets around the park»
Thecapitol park is nine hundred and fourteen feet square, cornering north,
south, east and west, contains fourteen and fonr*^tenths acres, and is sit-
uated on an eleyation commanding a view of the Third and Fourth lakes and
the surrounding country. In the center of the square stands the capitol, one
of the most magnificent structures of the kind in the United States.
The height of the building from the basement to the top of the flag staff is
£25Vi feet, while the total length of its north and south wings, exclusive of
steps and porticoes, is 228 feet, and of the east and west wings, 220 feet. The
completeness of the arrangements on the inside fully corresponds with the
fine external appearance of the capitol. On the first floor are the state de-
partments. In the east wing, on opposite sides of the hall, are the Executive
ofilce and the ofiice of the Secretary of State. The north wing is arranged in
a similar manner, and contains the offices of the State Treasurer and Com*
missioners of Public Lands. In the south wing, on one side of the hall, are
, the offices of the Attorney General, and Superintendent of Public Property*
and on the other, that of the Superintendent of Public Instruction. The
State Agricultural Society and the State Board of Supervision occupy one-
half of the west wing, whde opposite them are the offices of Railroad Com-
missioner, Adjutant General, State Treasury Agent, State Board of Charities
and Beform, and Commissioner of Insurance. On the second floor, the Sen-
ate Chamber occupies the east wing and the Assembly the west, while in the
north wing are the State Library and Supremo Court room, and in the south,
tbe rooms of the State Historical Society. In the basement of the capitol
are carpenter shops, boiler rooms, water closets, store rooms and committee
rooms. The third floor is also divided up into committee rooms, which are
occupied only during the session of the legislature. Iron stairways lead
firom story to story from the basement to the tholus, from which a fine view
of the surrounding country is afforded. No one who visits the State Capitol
of Wisconsin can fail to be impressed with the beauty of its location, and
the durability, completeness and magnificence of its structure.

HISTOKY.
The State University was fonnded upon a grant of seventy-two sections of
land made by Congress to the territory of Wisconsin, chapter 110, United
States laws 1838. That act required the Secretary of the treasury to set apart
and reserve from sale, o"ut of any public lands within the territory of Wis-
consin, *^ a quantity of land, not exceeding two entire townships, for the
support of a university within the said territory and for no other use or
purpose whatsoever; to be located in tracts of land not less than an entire
section corresponding with any of the legal divisions into which the public
lands are authorized to be surveyed."
The Territorial Legislature, at its session In 1838, passed a law incorporat-
ing the "University of the Territory of Wisconsin," locating the same at or
near Madison. At the same session a board ol* visitors was appointed, con-
sisting of the following persons: The Governor and Secretary of the Terri-
tory, the Judges of the supreme Court and the President of the University,'
ex officio^ and B B. Cart, Marshall M. Strong, Btbon Eilboubn, Wm. A.
Gardner, Charles R. Brush, C. C. Abndt, John Catun, Georob H.
Slaughter, David Brigham, John F. Scherherhorn, Wm. W. Coryell,
Geo. Beatty, Henry L. Dodge and Augustus A. Bird. Nothing, however,
was done by this board, although they legally remained in office until the
organization of the State government in 1848. In 1841, Nathaniel F. Hyde
was appointed commissioner to select the lands donated to the State for the
maintenance of the University, who performed the duty assigned to him in a
roost acceptable manner.
Section 6 of article X of the State constitution provides that " provision
shall be make by law for the establishment of a state University at or near
the seat of government. The proceeds of all lands that have been or may
hereafter be granted by the United States to the state, for the support of a
University shall be and remain a perpetual fund, to be called the ' University
Fund,' the interest of which shall be appropriated to the support of the
State University."
Immediately upon the organization of the State government an act was
passed incorporating the State University, &nd a board of regents appointed,
who at once organized the University by the election of John H. Lathrop,
LL. D., as Chancellor, and John W. Sterling, A. M , as Professor. The first
Board of Regents consisted of the following gentlemen: A. L. Collins, E.
v. Whiton, J. H. Rountree, J. T. Clark, Eleazer Root, A. Hyatt Smith,
Simeon Mills, Henry Bryan, Rupus Kino, Thomas W. Sutherland,
Cyrus Woodman, Hiram Barber and John Bannister.
The University was formally opened by the public inauguration of Chan-
cellor Lathrop, January 16, 1850. The preparatory departmen t of the Uni-
versity was opened under the charge of Chancellor Lathrop and Prof. J. W.
Sterling, in part of what was known as the Madison High School Building,
February 5, 1849, with twenty pupils.
In 1819, the Regents purchased nearly two hundred acres of land, compris-
ing what is known as the " University Addition to the City of Madison," and
the old "University Grounds." In 1851, the north dormitory was com-
pleted, and the first college classes formed. In 1854, the sonth dormitory
was erected.
Owing to the fact that the lands comprising the original grant had pro-

dnced a ftind wholly inadequate to the support of the Universitj, in 1854, s
farther grant of seventy-two sections of land was made by Congress to the
State for that purpose.
In 186tf« the UniTersity was completely reorganized, so as to meet the re-
quirements of a law of Congress passed in 1863, providing for the endowment
of agricultural colleges. That act granted to the several states a quantity of
land equal to thirty thousand acres for each Senator and Bepresentative in
Congress, by the apportionment under the census of 1869. The objects of
that grant are iully set forth in sections four and five of said act
The lands received by Wisconsin under said act of Congress, and conferred
upon the State University for the support of an agricultural college, amounted
to 240,000 acres, making a total of 322,160 acres of land donated to this
State by the general government for the endowment and support of this
institution.
Up to the time of its reorganization, the University had not received one
dollar from the State or from any municipal corporation. In pursuance of a
law passed in 1866, Dane county issued bonds to the amount of |i<),000 for
the purchase of about two hundred acres of land contiguous to the Univer-
sity grounds for an experimental farm, and for the erection of suitable
buildings thereon. The next winter the Legislature passed a law (Ch. 82, 6.
L. 1867), which appropriated annually for ten years to the income of the
University Fund, 17,308.76, that being the interest upon the sum illegally
taken from the Fund by the law of 1862 to pay for the erection of buildings.
In 1870 the Legislature appropriated $50,000 for the erection of a Female
College, which is the first contribution made outright to the upbuilding of
any institution of learning in this State. In order to comply with tae law
granting lands for the support of agricultural colleges, the University was
compelled to make large outlays in fitting up laboratories and purchasing
the apparatus necessary for instruction and practical advancement in the
arts immediately connected with the industrial interests of the State— a
burden which the Legislature very generously shared by making a further
annual appropriation in 1872 of |10,000 to the income of the University Fund.
The increased facilities offered by improvements in the old and by the erec-
tion of a new college building proved wholly inadequate to meet the growing
wants of the Institution. In its report for 1874, the board of visitors said:
*• A Hall of Natural Sciences is just now the one desideratum of the Uni-
versity. ](t can never do the work it ought to do, the work the State expects
it to do, without some speedily increased facilities.*^ The Legislature
promptly responded to this demand, and at its next session appropriated
180,000 for the erection of a building for scientific purposes.
In order to permanently provide for deficiencies in the University Fund
Income, and to establish the Institution upon a firm and enduring founda-
tion, the Legislature of 1876 (chapter 117, laws of 1876), en<icted '* That there
shall be levied and collected for the year 1876 and annually thereafter, a st «te
tax of one-tenth of one mill for each dollar of the assessed valuation of the
taxable property of this State, and the amount so levied and collected U
hereby appropriated to the University Fund Income, to be used as a p<)rt
thereof.** This is in lieu of all other appropriations for the benefit of this
fund, and all tuition fees for students in the regular classes are abolished by
this act.

ORGANIZATION.
The (Tniversity of Wisconsin, as now organized, comprises the College of
Letters, the College of Arts and the College of Law.
COLLEGE OF LETTERS.
Defabtment of Ancibnt Classics.— This course embraces the Ancient
Classics, Mathematics, Natural Science, Engiisn Literature and Philosophy.
Depabtment of Modebn Classics.— In this course, German and French
take the place of Greek. The studies are arranged to give the students a
knowledge of those languages and their literature.
COLLEGE OF ARTS.
This college is organized under section 2 of chapter 94 of the general laws
of 1866. It is designed to provide, not only a general scientific education,
but also for such a rang) of studies in the application of science as to meet
the wants of those who desire to fit themselves for agricultural, mechanical,
commercial, or strictly scientific pursuits.
It embraces the departments of General Science, Agriculture, Civil Engi-
neering, Mechanical Engineering, Mining and Metallurgy, and Military
Science.
The Depabtuent of Genebal Science embraces what is usually in-
cluded in the scientific course of other colleges.
Depabtment of Aqbicultubb — It is the design of the University to give
in this department a course of scientific instruction, in whicb the leading
studies shall be those that relate to agriculture. The University Farm is
used to aid this department in conducting experiments in agriculture and
horticulture.
Students can enter this, as all other departments of the University, at any
time, upon examination ; can pursue such studies as they choose, and re-
ceive a certificate of attendance.
The analytical laboratories are connected with this department.
Bepabtment of Civil Enoineebing.— The object of this department is
to give students instruction In the theory and practice of engineering.
Depabtment of Mechanical Enoineebing.— The instruction in this de-
partment is comprised under three heads: first, lectures and recitations In
the lecture room; second, exercises in the drawing room; third, workshop
practice.

Dbpabtmbnt op Mining and Metallubgt.— The object of this depart-
ment is to furnish instruction in those branches of science, a thorough
knowledge of which is essential to the intelligent mining engineer or metal- Jsji
lurgist. It is designed to give the student the option of making either min- y
ing, engineering or metallurgy the most important part of his course, and to *|
this end parallel courses have been bid ou^. ^ j|
Depabthent of Militaby Science.— The object of this department is to '5
flt its graduates to perform the duties of subaltern officers in the regular C
aimy. Under the laws of the general government, and of the state of Wi»- ')
consin, instruction in military tactics is obligatory. '
COLLEGE OP LAW. 5
!?
This college was organized in 1868, and at ouce went into successful oper-
ation. The city of Madison furnishes advantages for a law school superior
to any other city in the west. The Circuit and District courts of the United
States, and the Circuit Court for Dane county, and Supreme Court of the
State are held at Madison. The Law Library of the State, the largest and
most complete collection of the kind in the northwest, is at all times ac-
cessible to the students. Moot courts are held each week throughout the
course, under the personal supervision of tlie Dean of the Faculty.
The course in law consists of two years, and a certificate of graduation
from this department entitles the student to admission to practice in all the
courts of the State.
POST-GRADUATE COURSE.
The object of this couse Is to secure a higher grade of scholarship in liter-
ature and science than it seems possible to attain within the limits necessa-
rily prescribed to a four years' course. Bachelors of Art, Science and Phil-
osophy, are admitted as candidates for appropriate degrees. Ihcy must
devote two years to study under the direction of the President and Faculty,
and pass a satisfactory examination before the board of examiners appointed
by the Regents.
ASTRONOMICAL OBSERVATORY.
The fourth section of the act of 1876, to permanently provide for deflcien- J
cies in the University Fund Income, is as follows : i
" From and out of the receipts of said tax, the sum of three thousand dol-
lars (13,000) annually, shall be set apart for astronomical work and for in-
struction in astronomy, to be expended under the direction of the Regents
of the University of Wisconsin, as soon as a complete and well equipped ob-
servatory shall be given the University, on its own grounds without cost to
the state: provided, that such observatory shall be completed within three
years from the passage of this act.*'
The astronomical observatory whose construction was provided for by this
act, was erected by the wise liberality of ex-Governor Washburn. It is a
beautiful stone building designed by Mr. D. R. Jones. It is finely situated
and well fitted for its work. Its length Is eighty feet, its breadth forty-two
feet, and its height forty-eight feet. Over the door to the rotunda is a marb'e
tablet, bearing this inscription:
" Erected and furnished, A. D. 1878, by the munificence of Cadwallaskb
C, Washbubn, and by him presented to the University of Wisconsin— a
tribute to general science. In recognition of this gift, this tablet is inserted
by the Regents of the University."

The telescope has a sixteen inch object-glass. This size is a most desir-
able one lor the great mass of astronomical work. It was constructed by the
Clarks, at Cambridge
Since April, a new wing has been completed on the east side, which is oc-
cupied as library, computing office and bed-rooms. In May, ex-Govcrnor
Washbubn authorized the completion of the solar and students^ observatory
buildings, which were begun by Professor Watson on his private account,
and the work is now done and the buildings equipped.
The observatory was placed in charge of Professor James 0. Watson, who
had won a world-wide reputation at the Michigan observatory. After his
death in November, 1830, Professor E. S. Hold£N was appointed Director.

HISTORY.
The Constitntion of the State, adopted in 1848, proyides, " that the rerenac
of the School Fond shall be exclusively applied to the following objects:
" 1st. To the support and maintenance of common schools In each school
district, and the purchase of suitable libraries and appurtenances therefor.
*^ 2d. That the residue of the income of the School Fund shall be appro-
priated to the support of academies and normal schools, and suitable libra-
ries and appurtenances therefor.''*
Ko effort was made to take advantage of this provision of the Constitution
for the endowment of normal schools until 1857, when an act was passed
I>rovidiug " that the income of twcnty-flve per cent, of the proceeds arising
from the sale of swamp and overflowed linds should be appropriated to
normal institutes and academies, under the supervision and direction of a
* Board of Regents of Normal Schools,' " who were to be appointed in pur-
suance of the provisions of that act. Under this law, the income placed at
the disposal of the regents was distributed for several years to such colleges,
academies and high schools as maintained a normal class, and in proportion
to the number of pupils in the class who passed satisfactory examinations,
conducted by an agent of the Board.
In 1£05, the Legislature divided the swamp lands and Swamp Land Fund
Into two equal parts, one lor drainage purposes, the other to constitute a
Normal School Fund. The income of the latter was to be applied to estab-
lishing, supporting and maintaining normal schools, under the direction and
management of the Board of Regents of Normal Schools, with la proviso
that one-foarth of such income should be transferred to the Common School
Fund, until the annual income of that Fund should reach f200,000. During
the same year, proposals were invited for extending aid in the establishment
of a normal school, and propositions were received from vafious places.
In 1866, the Board of Regents was incorporated by the Legislature. In
February, Platte ville was conditionally selected as the site of a school, and
as it had become apparent that a productive fund of about $600,000, with a
net income of over $30,000, was already in hand, with a prospect of a steady
increase as fast as lands were sold, the Board, after a careful investigation
and consideration of different methods, decided upon the policy of establish-
ing several schools, and of locating them in different parts of the State.
At a meeting held on the 2d day of Hay, in the same year, the Board des-
ignated Whitewater as the site of a school for the southeastern section of
the State, where a building was subsequently erected; and on the IGth per-
manently located a school at Flatteville, the academy building having >een
donated for that purpose.
The school at PI itteville was opened October 9, 1866, under Prof. CnABLEs
H. Allen, previously agent of the board, and professor in charge of the nor-
mal department of the State University. Prof. Allbn resigned at the close
of four years* service, and the school was placed in charge of E. A. Charlton,
from Lockport, N. Y. After a service of more than eight years. President
CnxBLTON also resigned, his resignation taking effect at the close of 1878,
and D. McGoBaOB, long connected with the school as a professor, takes his
place.
The school at Whitewater was opened on the Slst of April, 1863, under

Oliyek Arbt, a. Mm formerly connected with the normal schools at Albany
and Brockport, N. T., and the building was on the same day dedicated to Itf
uses, with appropriate ceremonies. On the resignation of President Arst,
in 1877, Wx. F. Phblfs, A. M., an edacator of large experience, and of wide
reputation, was chosen by the Board to take charge of the school. He was
succeeded, at the end of two years, by J. W. Stbarns, 'A. M., who Is now in
charge. President Stearns had been at the head of the Kormal School in
the Argentine Kepnblic (or a few years previous.
A building was completed during the year 1870 for a third Normal School,
at OBhkosh, but owing to a lack of funds, it was not opened for the admis-
sion of pupils during that year. The opening and the ceremony of dedicat-
ing the building tooc place September 19, 1871. The president of the school
is Qeo. S. Albee, a. M., previously superintendent and principal of public
schools in Racine.
A fourth Normal School was opened in September, 1875, at River Falls,
Pierce county, under the charge of Warken D. Parker, A. M., formerly
superintendent and principal of public schools In Janesville. It supplies a
want long felt in the northwest part of the State.
It is understood to be the policy of the Board of Regents to establish
eventually, when the means at their disposal shall permit, not less than six
normal schools, but several years must elapse before so many can go into
operation.
The law under which these schools are organized provides that "The
exclusive purpose of each normal school shall be the instruction and train-
ing of persons, both male and female,- in the theory and art of teaching, and
in all the various branches that pertain to a good common school education,
and in all subjects needful to qualify for teaching in the public school?; also
to give instruction in the fundamental laws of the United States and of this
State, and in what regards the rights and duties of citizens."
REGULATIOMS FOB ADMISSION TO TUB NORMAL SCHOOLS.
Tuition is free to all students who are admitted to these normal schools
under the following regulations of the Board of Regents:
1. Each assembly district in the State shall be entitled to eight representa-
tive in the normal schools, and in case vacancies exist in the representation
to which any assembly district is entitled, such vacancies may be Ailed by
the president and secretary of the Board of Regents.
2. Candidates for admission shall be nominated by the superintendent ot
the county (or if the county superintendent has not jurisdiction, then the
nomination shall be made by the city superintendent), in which such candi-
date may reside, and shall be at least sixteen years of age, of sound bodily
health, and good moral character. Each person so nominated shall receive
a certificate setting forth his name, age, health and character, and a duplicate
of such certificate shall be immediately sent by mail, by the superintendent
to the secretary of the board.
8. Upon the presentation of such certificate to the president of a normal
school, the candidate shall bo examined under the direction of said president
in the branches required by law for a third grade certificate, except history,
theory and practice of teaching, and if found qualified to enter the nor-
mal school in respect to learning, he may be admitted after Aimishing such

evidence as the president may require of good health and good moral char-
acter, and after subscribing to the following declaration:
I, , do hereby declare that my purpose in entering this State Nor-
mal School is to fit myself for the profession of teaching, and that it is my
intention to engage in teaching in the schools of the State.
4. No person shall be entitled to a diploma who has not been a member
of the school in i^hich such diploma is granted, at least one year, nor who is
less than nineteen years of age; a certificate of attendance may be granted
by the president of a normal school to any person who shall have been a
member of such school.for one term, provided, that in his judgment, such
certificate is deserved.
As an addition to the work of the normal schools, the Board of Regents
are authorized to expend a sum not exceeding $5,00D annually, to sustain
teachers' institutes, and may employ an agent for that purpose. Institutes
are regarded as important auxiliaries and feeders to the normal schools. At
present one professor from each normal school is employed in conducting
institutes every spring and fall.
The Normal School Fund now amounts to over one million dollars, and
yields an annual income of about eighty-five thousand dollars. It will be
increased by the further sale of swamp lands, and will prove ample for the
objects for which it is set apart.

LOCATION.
PiatteviHe is a city of aboat 3,000 inhabitants, pleasantly sltnated on the
rolling ground between the Platte and Sinsinawa Mounds, in the midst of a
flneagricultaral region. The location is eminently healthful, the commu-
nity is an enterprising and moral one, and is deeply interested in the suc-
C38S and prosperity of the school. Students will find but few temptations
to idleness or dissipation, but on the other hand will meet with every en-
couragement to faithful work and upright conduct.
PiatteviUe is the terminus of the PlatteviUe branch of the Chicago, Mil-
waulcee <fe St. Paul R. R., connecting with the Illinois Central R. R. at
Warren. It is also connected by a system of narrow gauge railroads with
the I. C. R R. at Galena, the Milwaukee and Madison Division of the Chi-
cago & Northwestern at Montfort, and t je Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
at Woodman.
There is a daily stage from Lancaster, connecting at that point with the
Chicago & North Western Narrow Gauge R. R. There is also a daily stage
to and from East Dubui^ue.
BUILDING AND GROUNDS.
The building is a spacious stone edifice, centrally located, and on the high-
est ground within the city limits. A very important addition to the build-
ing has lately been erected. This gives six additional recitation rooms,
and a room for a Kindergarten Department. The appliances for heating
and ventilating have also been recently re-arranged and improved.

HISTORY.
This school, established as third in the State system of Normal Instrno-
tion, was formally dedicated to its work, and classes organized, in Septem-
ber, 1871.
The school bailding, spacloas and tasteful in its proportions, is bnllt with
careful regard for comfort and convenience. Whatever could be done to
SH'atify and cultivate taste has been observed in the decorations of the
rooms, and the adornment of the spacious grounds.
LOCATION.
Oshkosh is one of the most conveniently accessible points in the State
since many of the leading Hues of railroad and river steamers intersect at
or near the city. The counties containing three-fourths of the population
of the State are within six hoars^ ride.
The healthy aLd invigorating climate enables the student to endure se-
vere study with comparative ease.
The thoroughly organized school system of the city, together with the ex-
tensive and varied manufactures, affords ample opportunity for the practical
observation which the student so much needs and rarely obtains.

The Wisconsin State Hospital for tho Insane^ located near Madison, was
opened for patients in July, 1860. Two years later, one longitudinal and one
transTerse wing on the west side were completed, since which time other
additions haye been made. The entire length of the hospital bnilding is 669
feet the center building being 65xlS0 feet. The first longitudinal wing on
each side of the center is 182 feet, and the last on each extremity Is 110 feet.
The transverse wings are 8/ feet long. This commodious bnilding Is rur^
rounded by ornamental grounds, woods and farming lands, to the extent of
398 acres, and is well adapted for the care of the unfortunate needing its
protection. In 1879, additional room for 180 patients was added, by con>
Terting the old chapel into wards, and by the addition of cross wings in fh>nt
of the old building. The hospital will now accommodate comfortably 590
patients.
J. Edwards Lbe, M. D., was the first medical superintendent, having been
elected by the first board of trustees on the 22d of June, 1859, and the furni*
turc and furnishing of the center building and first wing, and acrangements
for the reception of patients, were conducted under his supervision.
The second board of trustees organized April 10, 1860, and on the 22d of
May following appointed John P. Clement, M. D., to supersede Dr. Lbe as
superintendent; and in June, I860, Mrs. Mart C. Hallidat was appointed
matron. The first patient was admitted July 14, 1800, and on the first day of
October, 1872, there were 373 patients in the hospital.
Dr.CLEMBTiTresigned January 1,1864, and from that time until April 20,
the hospital was in charge of John W. Sawybr, M. D., assistant physician
when A. H« Van Norstrand, M. D., was elected superintendent.
Dr. Van Norstrand resigned June 6, 1868, and was succeeded by A. S. Mc-
Dill, M. D.
Dr. McDiLL resigned In October, 1872, and on the 23th of April, 1873, Mark
R/iNNEY, M. D., was appointed superintendent, and entered upon his duties
July 23.
Dr. Ranney resigned and was succeeded by A. S. MoDill, M. D.^ in April,
1875. Dr. McDill was removed by death November 12, 1875.

In 1870 a law was passed authorizing an additional hospital for the insane.
Alter an examination of several sites in different parts of the State by a com-
mbfsion appointed for that parpose, choice was made of the location offered
by the citizens of Oshkosli, consisting of 887 acres of land, aboat four miles
north of the city on the west shore of Lake Winnebago. The necessary ap-
propriations were made, and the north wing and central bailding were com-
pleted and opened for the admission of patients, in April, I87S. Further
appropriations were made from time to time for additional wings, and in
1875, the hospital was completed according to the original design, at a total
cost to the State of six hundred and twenty-flTe thousand, two hundred and
Hfty dollars. The building has been constructod on the most approved plan,
and is suited to accommodate five hundred and fifty patients. In December,
1878, Dr. Walter Ebmpster, of Utica, New York, was elected Superintend-
ent, and has since discharged the duties of that responsible position with
great acceptance to the board of trustees and to the public at large.
The law governing the admission of patients to this Hospital is the same
as in the Wisconsin State Hospital.
There has been paid from the State treasury, for buildings and current
expenses for this hospital, the sum of $i,M0,652.11.
The appropriations for 1881, including the amounts paid by counties, was
^110,816.96.

This is the first charitablo institntion established by the State. A school
for the blind had been opened at JanesviUe in the latter part of 1849, which
received its support from the citizens of that place and vicinity. At the next
session of the Legislatnre it was adopted by the State, by an act approved
^February 9, 1850. On October 7, 1850, it was opened for the reception of papils
under the direction of the board of trnstees appointed by the Governor. It
occnpicd rented rooms until June 1, 1853, when it was removed to a building
erected for Its use at a cost of about $J),000. The lot of ten acres had been do-
nated by the owners, and now forms apart of the grounds belonging to the in-
titntion. This building was so arranged as to admit of becoming the wing of a

larger one, which was commenced in 1854 and fully completed in 1S59. In 1864-^
a brick bnilding was erected for a shop and for other purposes. The founda-
tion of the wins; first built proved to be defective, and in 1867 that portion of
the building had to bo tak6n down. The next year, work was began on an
extension which should replace the demolished portion and afford room for
the growth of the school. That was completed in 1870, and the value of the
buildings, grounds and personal property belonging to the institution was
estimated at $182,000. On the 13th of April, 1874, the building was destroyed
by fire, and at the ensuing session of the Legislature an appropriation of
$56,000 was made for the erection of a wing for a new building on the old
site, but on a somewhat different plan; and in 1876 a further appropriation
Of $SO,000 was made for rebuilding the main structure.
The school was not allowed to close on account of the fire. Suitable
accommodations were procured for the pupils by the board of trustees in the
city of Janes ville, where, at some disadvantage, the work of the Institution
was carried on until January 1, 1876, when the wing of the new bui! ding was
ready for occupancy. The main structure has since been completed. It la
designed to accommodate one hundred pupils, the same number as the
building destroyed In 1874. The exterior is plainer than in the former
structure, but a considerable sum has been expended in fire-proofing and in
laying solid foundations under the main building. It Is now believed to be
practically fire-proof.
The object of the Institution as declared by law is, " to qualify, as far as
maybe,^^ the blind "for the ei^oyment of the blessings of a free govern-
ment, obtaining the means of subsistence and the discharge of those duties,
social and political, devolving upon American citizens." The Institution
is therefore neither a hospital nor an asylum, but a school. Into which blind
persons residing In Wisconsin, ''of suitable age and capacity to receive
instruction," are admitted for education. For the purposes of the Institu-
tion, those persons are regarded as blind who are shut out from the b^iefits
of the common schools by deficiency of sight. Pupils are regularly received
who are between the ages of eight and twenty-one years. In occasional
instances others have been admitted. Tuition and board during the school
year are furnished by the state without charge, but parents and guardians
are expected to provide clothing, traveling expenses and a home during the
summer vacation. The school year commences on the second Wednesday
in September, and closes on the next lo the last Wednesday In the June
following.
The operations of the school fall naturally Into throe departments. In
one, instruction is given in the subjects usually taught in the common
schools. Some use is made of books printed in raised letters; but instruc-
tion is mostly given orally. In another department, musical training, vocal,
Instrumental and theoretical, is imparted to an extent sufficient to dimish to
most an important source of enjoyment, and to some the means of snpport.
These two departments were opened at the commencement of the school,
and have been ever since maintained. A little later the third department
was opened, In which broom making and weaving of rag carpets is tanghi
to the boys, sewing, knitting and various kinds of fancy work to the girls,
and seating cane-bottomed chairs to both boys and girls.
The census of 1880 shows that there were eighty-three blind persons in the

& St. Panl Bailroad, sixty miles from Hilwankee. The land first occnpied
by this fnstitntion, comprising 11 46-100 acres, was donated by Hon. F. K.
Phosnix, one of the first tmstees, bnt the original boundaries have since
been enlarged by the purchase of twenty-two acres. The main bnilding was
bnrned to the ground on the 16th of September, 1879; bnt during the year
1880 four new buildings were erected, and with the increased facilities pro-
vided, 250 children may be well cared for.
The new buildings are a school house, boys^ dormitory, dining room and
chapel, with a main or administration building. These buildings are plain,
neit, substantial structures, and well fitted for the uses intended.
The school is divided into primary, intermediate and academic depart-
. ments, in addition to which a department of articulation is in successful
operation under the management of two experienced teachers.
The institution was originally a private school for the deaf, but was incor-
porated by act of the Legislature, April 19, 185S.
It designs to educate that portion of the children and youth of the State
who, on account of deafness, cannot be educated in the public schools. In-
struction is given by signs, by written language, and by articulation. In
the primary department few books are used, slates, pencils, crayons, pic-
tures, blocks and other illustrative apparatus being the means employed.
In the intermediate department the books used are prepared especially for
the deaf and dumb ; more advanced pupils study text books used in our com-
mon schools.
This school gives pupils a course in mathematics, instruction in the dif-
ferent branches of natural science, and a continuous seven years drill in
language and composition.
The record of the school for last year shows increased interest in study,
and continuous progress. In addition to systematic and thorough instruc-
tion in the Literary Department, the boys were taught printing, baking and
shoemaking, and the girls, printing and needlework.
The shoeshop commenced business in 1867; the printing office in 1878; and
the bakery in 1881.
The law provides that all deaf and dumb residents of the State of the age
of ten years and under twenty-five years, of suitable age and capacity to
receive instruction, shall be received and taught free of charge for board and
tuition, but parents and guardians are expected to furnish clothing and pay
traveling expenses. '
The school term commences the first Wednesday of September, and con-
tinues forty weeks. The average attendance last year was 17:2. Total enroll-
ment, 218.
The total amount paid flrom the State treasury for buildings and current
expenses of this institution is 1386,734.13.
The appropriations for 1881, including amount received from counties, was
136,8:8.01.
The disbursements on current expense account for the year ending Sep-
tember 80, 1881, amount to $36,887.45, including $8,076.12 tor fuel.
The total per capita expense of maintaining a pupil in this school for the
year was 1211.55, with an average of 172 pupils.
Instruction in the school cost |42.84; in the shops, $6.21; attendance and
service of domestics 18.72; general management and supervision $18.14 per
capita.

The State Prison was located at Waupun in July, 1851, by Messrs. John
BuLLEN, John Taylor, and A. W. Worth, who were appointed commission-
ers to determine such location under a law enacted that year. A contract was
at once entered into for the construction of a temporary prison; in 18.53 the
contract was let for the mason work upon the south wing of the prison, and
additions have been made from time to time since that date.

From March 28, 185}, to January 4, 1874, the office of State Prison Commis.
sioncr was an clectiyo office, the Commissioner having fall control of the
management of the prison.
From January 4, 1874, to June 1, 1881, the management was in the hands of
three directors appointed by the Governor, with the advice and consent of the
senate. In place of a Commissioner, the directors appointed a Warden, who
had charge and custody of the prison, to serve three years.
In June, 1881, the management of the prison was placed in the hands of
the State Board of Supervision, who have continued the control and custody
as established by the directors.
The warden, steward and treasurer are appointed by the' State Board of
Supervision annually. All other officers are appointed by the board from
time to time, as vacancies occur, upon the nomination of the warden.
The convict labor was leased to M. B. Wells & Co., of Chicago, for the
manufacture of boots and shoes, for five years from Jan. 1, 1878. Manufac-
ture on the part of the State was therefore discontinued after that time.
The total amount paid from the State treasury for construction and main-
tenance of prison, is 11,036,655.48. No appropriation has been asked for since
the close of the fiscal year ending September 80, 1877; but the surplus of
stock and material on hand at the time of the discontinuance of manufactur-
ing on State account having been exhausted in supplying the annual deficits,
an appropriation of 115,000 will be asked for the coming year.

The Wisconsin Industrial School for Boys is situated about three-fourths
of a mile west of the railroad depot, in the village of Waukesha, the county
seat of Waukesha county.
It was orsanized as a House of Refuge, and opened in 1860. The name
was afterwards changed to "State Reform School," and again to "Wiscon-
sin Industrial School lor Boys," its present title. The buildings are located
on tfee southern bank of Fox river, in view of the trains as they pass to and
from Milwaukee and Madison, presenting an attractive front to the traveling
public, and furnishing the best evidence of the parental care of the state
authorities for the Juveni'e wards within our borders.

The T)nildings inclade a main central building, three stories high* used for
the residence of the Superintendent's family, office, chapel, school rooms,
reading room and library, officer's kitchen, dining room, and lodging, fur-
nace room and cellar.
On the east of the main central building, are three family buildings, three
stories high, each with dining hall, play room, bath room, dressing room,
hospital room, officers' rooms, dormitory and store room.
On the west of the main central building are four family buildings like
those on the east in all respects, with the exception of the building at the
west end of this line, which is a modern building with stone basement.
The main central and family buildings here spoken of (with the one ex-
ception) are built of stone, with slate roofs, and are intended to be substan-
tially fire proof. The family buildings were designed to accommodate 33 to
86 boys each.
In the rear of this line of buildings is the shop building, 88x25S feet, three
stories high, which embrace boot factory, sock and knitting factory, tailor
shop, cai-pentcr soop, engine room, laundry, and steam drying room, bath
rooms, store, store rooms, bakery and cellar; the correction house 44x80
feet (intended for the most refractory boys), and will accommodate 40; a
double family building 33x117 feet for the accommodation of two families of
boys of 50 each.
The buildings, although unlike the other family buildings are conveniently
arranged, and contain all that the other family buildings are provided with.
Commodious dry earth closets are provided for each of the several families.
The Institution is lighted with gas, and each building receives its supply of
water, conducted through pipes leading from the large tanks provided for
this purpose.
There is on the farm, which consists of 233 acres of land, a comfortable
house, a stone carriage and horse barn, two stories high, built in the most
substantial manner. A convenient wooden barn, with sheds for cattle, and
cellar for roots. A first class piggery with stone basement, and storage
above for corn, sheds for wagons and farming implements, etc*
The income of the Institution is drawn from th-j proceeds of its own work
shops and farm, from annual appropriations, and from charges against coun-
ties for maintaining a certain class of inmates. The total amount paid from
the State Treasury for building purposes and current expenses since the or-
ganization of the sch<)ol is 1907,937.43. The amount of appropriation for 1881,
including the sums paid by counties was $61,474.76.

The Wisconsin Indastrlal School for Girls is located in Milwaukee, on
Lake Avenue, in that part of the city known as North Point. It is now cap-
able of accommodating 140 inmates.
Its proper subjects are:
1. yiciousl> inclined girls under IG, and boys under 10 years of age.
1. The stubborn and uurnly, who refuse to obey their proper guardians.
8. Truants, vagrants and beggars.
3. Those found in circumstances of manifest danger of falling^.into habita
of vice and immorality.
Digitized by VjOOQIC
454 WISCONSIN BLUB BOOK.
5. Those under the aboTe ages who have committed SQjoflEiBage punishable
by fine or imprisonment in adult offenders.
Although I he school was founded by private charity, and is under the con-
trol of a self-perpetuating board of managers, it is incorporated and em-
ployed by the State for the custody, guardianship, discipline and instruction
of the aforenamed children. In default of responsible and efl^ient guardian-
ship, they are treated as the minors and wards of the State, and by it are
committed to the guardianship of this board of ladies, during minority.
The present statutes provide that for each girl so committed, the county
from which such commitment is made shall pay not more than two dollars
and fifty cents per week.'
It is designed to be in no sense a penal institution, but it is a reformatory
for the older, a temporary place of detention and instruction fob the younger.
lis objects are prevention and reformation.
It aims to combine the characters of a well regulated Christian family and
agood public school, and its culture is physical, sanitary, educational and
religious, but In no sense sectarian.
The facilities now commanded enable the managers to provide the inmates
not only with a fair English education, and a knowledge of housekeeping,
but with such industrial training as will enable them to earn honest livings
in respectable and useful callings.
The school was organized under the act of 1875, and has received from the
legislature, in 1878, 1880 and 1881, sums amounting to 135,000, for buildings,
improvement of grounds and stock, and furnishings. The city of Milwau-
kee has also given for its use a tract of over eight acres of land, the state
holding the title deeds to all this property. The site is high and healthful,
commanding a fine view of the beautiful Bay of Milwaukee.
The buildings, as completed by the successive appropriations, afford in all
the requisites for distinct family life, two separate dwellings, designated as
the Main Home and the Children's Home, besides a nursery, kindergarten
room, infirmary, laundry and two large school-rooms. The nursery takes all
children under three years of age ; the children's home those between three
and eleven, and these together enjoy the kindergarten games and training.
The Main Home takes the girls from eleven upwards, dividing them inta
four distinct classes, according to a?e and morals, with fair facilities for
suitable separation and instruction, though an additional and entirely sepa-
rate building is needed for proper restraint and influences over the more de-
graded girls. While the board holds guardianship over its wards until they
reach twenty.one years of age, nearly all the older girls are placed in private
lamilies between sixteen and eighteen, and the little ones whenever suitable
homes are offered. Many have inherited physical and mental weaknesses
which must first be modified or removed.
In addition to the inmates sent by legal process, the school receives a num-
ber of charity subjects, supported by a fund contributed by citizens of Mil.
waukee, and also boards and teaches incorrigible children for parents or
guardians on their pajrment of the same sum as is paid by the counties.
The buildings are of Milwaukee brick, upon a lime-stone foundation, and
are now very convenient and appropriate in their construction and appoint-
ments. The main building, erected in 1878, is a parallelogram COxBi feet,
and has three stories above a high basement. The addition erected in 1880

is connected with the west side of the main edifice by a corridor 10x30 feet,
and is 45x70 feet in dimensions. A good barn his also been built, and fences,
walks, gatters, grading, trees, shrubs and graveled drives provided.

cordially Invited to address the commandant of the Home, by whom the
necessary blanks and instructions will be sent by return mail. On the ap-
plication and certificate thus made out, an order for the admission of the
disabled soldier Is Indorsed, and an order for free transportation by railroad
to the Home Is furnished.
LABOB, IKSTBUOnON AND AMUSEMENT.
Such inmates as are able to do so, have the opportunity to practice various
mechanical trades, or to work on the Home farm, for which they are paid a
compensation of from $6 to |15 a month, averaging, all around, about 40 cents
per day. Skilled laborers earn more than these wages. The trades prac-
ticed are, boot and shoe making, carpenter and Joiner work, tln-smlthing,
plastering and stone masonry, gas-fitting, printing, book-binding and har-
ness-making. Farming Is largely carried on, and some of the finest products
exhibited at the State fairs have been from the fields and gardens cultivated
by the soldiers. All the labor of the institution, including care of the build-
ings, repairs which are found necessary, and farming operations. Is done by
the inmates.
The institution has an excellent library of 8,900 volumes, contributed by
friends of the soldiers In various parts of the country. The reading room
contains newspapers and magazines, all of which are in constant use and
requisition by the inmates.
This institution is not a public charity, and the disabled soldiers of the
country should understand i\ Tho money that supports it has been for-
forfelted by bad soldiers, and has been made, by the law of congress, tho
absolute property of the disabled soldiers of the country. They do not
place themselves in the list of pau^^ers by becoming inmates of the Home.

The state Library had its origin in the generous appropriation of |5,000 out
of the general treasury, by Congress, contained in the seventeenth section
of the organic act creating the Territory of Wisconsin. At the first seseion
of the Territorial Legislature, held at Belmont in 1836, a joint resolution was
adopted appointing the Hon. John M. Clayton, of Delaware (through whose
instrumentality the clause in the organic act making the appropriation was
inserted), Hon. Lewis F. Linn, of Missouri, Hon. G. W. Jonbs, then dele-
gate in Congress from this Territory (which at that time included what now
constitutes the Slate of Iowa, as well as Wisconsin) and Hon. Psteb Hill
Englk, the speaker of the first Territorial House of Representatives, a com-
mittee to select and purchase a library for the use of the Territory. James
Clabelb, publisher of the Belmont Gazette, and the first Territorial printer,
was the first Librarian.
The first appropriation by the State, to replenish the library, was made in
1851. The sum of |2,500 was then appropriated for the purchase of law books.
In 1854, the sum of $3,003 was appropriated for law and miscellaneous
works; and In 1857, the additional appropriation of $1,000 was made for the
same purpose, together with a standing appropriation of $250 for such addi-
tions to the law and miscellaneous departments of the library as might from
time to time be deemed desirable.
In 1864, thaannual appropriation was increased to $500, and in 1866 the ad-
ditional sum of $800 per annum was placed at the disposal of the Governor
for the purpose of supplying deficiencies in the law department of the
library. These appropriations were continued until 1877, when the annual
appropriation was increased to $1,500.
In 1875, the Legislature directed the transfer of the miscellaneous books
in the State Library to the State Historical Society.
The needs of the library, as a law library, are increasing rather than
diminishing. The rapidity with which treatises, digests, reports, statutes,
etc.. Increase, makes It impossible for the library, with Us limited funds, to
meet many of the demands made upon it. Its principal wants are the
Scotch reports, the reports of the'courts of the British colonies; the early
statutes and session laws of the several States and Territories ; reports of
important criminal trials; works on legal bibliography; histories of the
law and of courts ; legal biographies and speeches ; works on the civil law,
and the laws of foreign countries, including the codes, and collections of
statutes in force in all civilized countries and colonies.

In October, 1843, was organized the Wisconsin State Historical Society,
with A. Hyatt Smith, President; Jambs D. Doty and Thomas R. Bennett,
Vice Presidents ; Thomas W. Sutherland, Secretary; and E. M. William-
son, Treasurer. January, 1847, the first annual meeting was held, at which
Morgan L. Martin was chosen President, and the other officers re-elected.
At the second annual meeting. Gen. W. R. Smith was made President. In
January, 1849, a reorganization of the Society was wrought by the election
of Governor Nelson Dewey, President ex-offlcio ; I. A. Lapham, Corres-
ponding Secretary; Rev. Charles Lord, Recording Secretary; and the
choice of one Vice President from each of twenty-five counties. A second
reorgf.nization of the Society was eflTected in 1854, under a charter approved
March, 1853, and the following oflicers were elected: President, Gen. W. R.
Smith; Librarian, D. W. Hunt; Treasurer, Prof. O. M. Conover; Re-
cording Secretary, Rev. Charles Lord; Corresponding Secretary, Lyman
C. Draper. Daniel S. Durrie became identified with the Society in lti56,
as librarian, assuming active duties in 185S, and remaining constantly in
service since that time.
When the Historical Society's library was removed to the second floor of
the south wing of the capitol, its aggregate collections numbered 21,000
volumes and documents. The total additions since have been 73,C00 vol-
umes, documents, pamphlets and newspapers — the latter dmonnting to
nearly 4,f 00 bound volumes, perhaps the largest collection of newspapers in
the country. From time to time, the Society has issued several volumes of
historical collections and addresses, and also five volumes of its library
catalogue.
The Society is the trustee of the State, and receives an annual appropria-
tion of $5,000, on condition that this sum shall be expended for the purposes
of the Society, and that the Society shall hold all its present and fature
collections and property for the State, and shall not sell, mortgage, dispose
of, or remove from the capitol, its collections, without authority from the
Legislature; provided, that duplicates may be sold or exchanged for the
benefit of the Society.
The State, in addition, pays the salaries of its officers, as follows : Secre-
tary, |1,200; Librarian, |1,600; Assistant Librarian, |720. The necessary
printing, binding and postage bills are also paid by the State. The total
amount paid from the State Treasury for the Historical Society, for the year
ending September 80, 1881, was $9,372.00.

ORGANIZATION.
Pursuant to public notice, the members of the Legislature and other citi-
zens of the State of Wisconsifi met at the Assembly Hall, March 18th, 1851,
for the purpose of forming a State Agricultural Society. Hon. Wm. F. Toxf-
KiNs was called to the chair and A. C. Ingham, secretary. The permanent
organization was eOVictcd March 13th, by the election of the first president,
Ebastus W. Dbubt, of Fond du Lac.
The first Statu Fair was held at Janesville, October 1st and 9d, 1851, with
an address by John H. Lathbop, LL. D., Chancellor of the University of
Wisconsin, who said : *^ It is the glory of modem civilization to exalt every
social valley; to demol is li every wall or partition between the liberal and
useful arte; to shed the light of science on the industrial processes, and to
bring all the honest avocations of men into harmonious action. It proposes
to make the share each may vindicate to himself to depend — not on the
birth, rank or calling of the individual, but on his personal character and
personal merit.""
Abraham Lincoln, in his address to the Society in 1859, said: "No human
occupation opens so wide a field for the profitable and agreeable combina-
tion of labor with cultivated thought as agriculture."
The Society holds an annual convention at the Capitol, In February of
each year, fur the discussion of questions that Interest the farmers of the
State. These conventions are largely attended by representative farmers of
the State. Nineteen volumes of transactions have been published, and are
eagerly sought after by the agriculturists, not only of the State, but very
many are called for by Individuals from sister states and foreign countries.
An approp:iation of $2,000 per year has been made to this Society by the
State for a number of years, in addition to which the necessary stationery
and postase is also paid by the Srate. The amount paid ftrom the State
Treasury for the year ending September 83, 1831, to the Society, was 13,180.59.

The Wisconsin Dairymen's Association originated in a resolation offered
by W. D. Hoard, of Fort Atkinson, in the Jefferson County Dairymen's
Association, Jan nary -}6^ 1872. By the adoption of this resolution, Mr. Hoard
was authorized to issue a call for a meeting of Wisconsin Dairymen, to be
held at Watertown, February 15, 1872. The call was signed by various mem-
bers of the Jefferson and Fond du Lac Dairy Associations, and in accordance
with its purpose, a few gentlemen met and organized the Wisconsin Dairy-
men's Association. The aim of the organization has been to secure im-
proved methods of making butter and cheese, and the best markets for
shipment and sale.
The association holds its annual meeting in January of each year, for the
discussion of the dairy interests. Dairy fairs are held at each meeting.
There is printed annually by the State Printer, two thousand copies of 110
pages each, of the transactions of the association.
The legislature receive six hundred copies, the State Historical Society,
Academy of Science, Arts and Letters, State Agricultural Society and North-
em Wisconsin Agricultural Association, receive foriy copies each ; the re-
mainder are distributed to the members of the association, and generally
over the S:ate to all who make application for them. Twice the number
could be distributed probably to the dairymen of the State.
The reports are being much sought after by dairymen from all parts of the
northwest.
The association receives its support from members who Join each year,
paying the sum of one dollar, and by appropriations A*om the State, the
legislature of 1881 appropriating $300.
Wisconsin won first premium on butter, in competition with the world, the
second premium on Cheddar cheese (the first going to Canada), and the
second on iancy shaped cheese, at the International Dairy Fair held in New
York City, in December, 1877. To the Dairymen's Association belongs the
credit of raising the reputation of Wisconsin cheese and butter from the
lowest to the highest rank.
