Resolution from Committee on Accounts and Expenses [Resolution No. 77]

There are 0 proposed amendments related to this document on which decisions have not been taken.

Convention Hall,

April 19, 1895.

Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Convention:

We, your committee on accounts and expenses. complying with the resolution introduced this morning by Mr. Francis, beg leave to report as follows:

We have consulted a number of the chairmen of different committees, also a number of other delegates, and have reached the following conclusion: It may appear at times that the officers are not fully employed, but we submit that the implied (if not the expressed) intention of the Convention in employing {1202 - WATER RIGHTS} its officers was that they were employed for the entire session.

The committee on compilation and revision has yet a great deal of work for the committee clerks, hence their service cannot be dispensed with. Assuming our understanding of the employment of the officers expressed in the foregoing to be correct, we believe it beneath the dignity of this honorable body at this late stage of the proceedings to discharge any of its employesbefore final adjournment. We therefore recommend the retention of all employed, and also recommend their payment in full from the government appropriation.

Very respectfully,

A. C. LUND, Chairman.

A. J. CUSHING,

JOHN R. BARNES.
