"Mr. Speaker," he said, "I wish to ask whether any member or this house who has financial interest in the ques tion pending, owns stock in distil leries, breweries, or owns saloons, or property leased to liquor interests, can, under the rules, vote on this question?" The speaker explained that precedents held that if a member is affected as one of a class, the ruie does not prevent his voting, but such questions usually are left to the mem ber himself.
