Mr. BOULANGER:

I have no objection

to letting it stand, but I wish to point out that it applies only to private bills. The purpose of the motion is only to suspend rule 105, which requires a notice of five days. As the' session is coming to a close the motion seems a reasonable one.

Motion stands.

That the provisions of standing order 105, that no committee on any private bill originating in this house is to consider the same until after one week's notice of the sitting of such committee has been first affixed in the lobby, be suspended for the remainder of the session.
