able to sling with
ease a bio wooden case filled with wood over
her shoulder and shuffle off with it. With
the indifference of a polar bear she has

that, looking tothecredit and the safety of
the House, it would be well if the nuisance
were abated.
Mr. Kirkpatrick moved in amendment,
That the Speaker be recpfested to issue an
order closing the bar within the precincts
of the House for the sale of intoxicating

Mr. LOngley. said the araendment did
not by any means satisfy him. •There was
no use trying to regulate this 'matter and -
prevent excess, for there Was excess in the
thing itself. If members thought it would
do them credit _personally or do credit to
the House asn whole,. to vote down this
motion, let them do it: .

think the' hon. gentleman, had a right -to '
-move it.
