Connecticut and Biennial Scs-
Aliens.

The Connecticut House of Representa-.
tives, by vote of 215 yeas to nay, has
passed resolution favoring a consti IL
tonal amendment providing for biennial
sessions OF the General Assembly. In
the course of debate 1t was shown that
nearly two-tbiids of all the States hold
only biennial legislative sessions, and
that in Connecticut the saving in every
"of" year would amount, combining
the expenses of the General Assembly
and of elections (drect and indirectly to
nea' ly S560.00O, while the State would
be freed from the annoyance of an annu-
al struggle for Office.
