time of this house by Investigating all
sorts of street rumors against the state
ments of the olllclnl leistering clerk,
I think wc might as well adjourn be
cause wc win nae no more uino to uoi
any business I
Mr Carter being granted permission I
to answer the statement by the chair
said.
"In the first place, )our remarks
casting aspersions on me should not
hate come from the chair but should
have come from the floor of the house.
In the next place, the certificate, from
the clerk docs not sfitc whether you
are a citizen of the United States or
not. I hae taken means to Investigate
the records and there Is nothing there
on evidence of your citizenship It
would bo a very easy mttter to nnswer
that. The motion was not put with
the Idea of taking up the time of the
house but nn Investigation of this was
thought to bo advisable, by mself sole
ly nnd to allow the chair a chance of
answering,
Mr. Carter went on to say that the
nrbltrary rulings of the chair had made
It necessary to take some action toward
investigating the right of the President
to his seat.
Mr. Knnuha gae notice of his Inten
tion to introduce "An Act to prottto
and regulate, the sending of American
jouths to the United Slates to be edu
cated." Mr. White moved to amend Rule 77
of the Senate Rules by striking out the
words "by a two-thlnls vote" In lines
7 and S so as to read as follows:
"It any member shall conduct himself
In a disorderly manner during any ses
sions of the Senate the President shall
order such member to ke his scat
and preserve the peace, and If he shall
then persit In his disorderly conduct.
the President shall have the power to
order the sergeanl-at-arms to remove
him from the Senate, and he shall not
be permitted to take bis seat during
the remainder of the day's session ex
cept upon satisfactory pledge git en by
him to the Senate of future good be
havior." This brought on more unpleasant
ness. Messrs. C. Drown and Crabbe
seconded the amendment. Mr. Acht
arose to a point of order to the effect the Territory too young. He, there
Ihst the amendment of section 27 of the I fore, thought that as long as we ccrtild
organic Act which provides for the ex-
pulsion of members by a two-thirds
tote Mr. White moved the previous
question and this wns lost. Mr. Kami-
ha pitted himself against his colleagues i
ot the majority by mot Ing to table the
"resolution."
The chair ruled that the amendment
was not a resolution and therefore, Mr.
Kinuhd's motion wns -jut of order. Mr.
White nroso to Bpeak jnd Mr Carter
called the attention of the ihnlr to the
fact that tho motion to table was not

protested and were twice ordered to

The motion was then put and It car
