There is a great deal of feeling
among the members in regard to the
immense outlay upon the repairs of
the State House. 1t is known that
when an appropriation was asked
for last session many were in favor
of appropriating $50 900, but it was
stated a smaller amount would be
sufficient, and $50, 900 was appropria-
ted. 1t was not expected that there
was to be an entire renewal and costly
refurnishing. Many members find
the luxurious cushioning of the
chairs hot and uncomfortable, and
think that came seat chairs, such as
those used by Congress, would have
been better in every way. Itappears
from the Governors message that
the works so far has cost S106,940.
The estimate for the completion Of
the hall, porticO and dome is twenty
five thousand dollars, which would
make the total amount Sl31 ,O40. But
Judging from the past, the tendency
of expenditures to exceed estimates
will roll up to still larger sum.
Judging from the present temper of
the members, there will be big
row over the bills, and last night one
of the party managers expressed the

could not be gotten through this
session. This plan of getting Il moder-
ate appropriation, and then after the
session to go ahead regardless OF eX-
pense, has been worked IA great deal
in Annapolis. Such action is entire
ly illegal, and is usurpation of the
privileges of the Legislature, but the
party managers have the members
50 we'll drilled that they can always
secure their acquiescence. No
mat er what restrictions may be i'm
posed, it is always the case that obi
cations are incurred without warrant
of law, and claims for compensation
come up session after session. In 1868
100000 was appropriated for the
building of the Governors house.
After the purchase of the ground
1858, 1864, % remained for the building.
Estimates were made for a building
to cost that amount, but the actual
expenditure was double the estimate
and the next, Legislature had tt
make an additional appropriation OF
SIS, 296,2S. Then $50, 900 was appro
priated for furniture. In 1872 $4,000
more was appropriated to pay fol-
furniture; in 1874 S2,517 more, and as
late as 1876 $4,000 more was appro
priated for furniture. The Commits
sion, charged with the erection of the
Governors house, without any au
thority whatsoever, and in thu
absence of any appropriation, built
stable and carriage house also. II
f giving the order for the building
they limited its cost to $1,000. pht
actual cost was S13,937 a. or n !t%; q
estimate of 500, 900, the brick man
sion of the Governor, grounds anC
carriage house has been made to cos
S205, S13.2S. This however, is bu
little more than double, while in thC
case of the State House repairs The
cost so far, without considering wha
remains to be done, is more thar
thrice the sum appropriated to cover
the cost.
