Committee No. 12. On County, City and Town Organizations.
September 10th, 1889.
Mr. President-
Your committee having under consideration File No. 11, return the same with the recommendation that it do not pass, and submit herewith a substitute entitled Municipal Corporations which we recommend for incorporating in the constitution.
Your committee apprehend that a large portion of File No. 11 was inadvertently referred to us, as it refers to corporations other than municipal, we therefore recommend that all of said file except the first section be referred to Committee No. 13, on corporations.
