tor- ,rought into public use by the passage of

Mr.. PALMER: This . bill• has presented an

been here for several years..; There is no doubt
what the:bill is,meant for. It is for the pur
pose of introducing and bringing into general
use, a self:weiging actin the city of. Philadel

objection to the bill, for the patentees have a
right : to ,"dispose of their articles, were it not
that no good is to grow out - of the, passage of
the bill. The &nate will • remember that in
ten cases out of otuquindred tlin purchaser of
coal is not at his residence, to see the article

And the bill being on its final passage,
Mr. FINNEY. I desire to know whether
we are about to establish the precedent of paying
membera of the Legislature for services in con
tested election cases.
• Mr. KETCHAM. The compensation of mem
bentrof the Legislature is already fixedby law.
The legal :contemplation of this Act of Assem
bly is to pay the expenses of members, and I
am of the ()Pinion that it would be most ad
visable for all Acts of Assembly to -clearly and
explicitly express their purpose. The object of
the bill before us - is to compensate members for
the additional expense -to which they have
been subjected in the fulfilment of their ap
pointed mission.
Mr. LAWRENCE. The . law specifies what
mileage this Mutilate - )shall receive. They
;were compelled to rent a room, etc., at Scran
ton, to which place they were called for the
exercise of their duties; and ontheir return, they
asked to receive the sum of $75, without mile
lege, which amount they thought worthd pay
them for all expenses incurred. We now pro
pose that the amount shall be-fixed at $5O.
Mr. FINNEY. lam in favor of' the propo
sition to - fix the su.m. at •$5O, but I object to the
House establishing this idea of paying mem
bers for services; forgetful of the law as it.exista.
Mr. KEICHAM moved to strike dut the
word 'fserviees,". where it occurred in the bill,
and insert lexpenses."
