0o-as- foU-fLEAsE. -0ae-third Of
the ninety days session of iae present
legislature has expired, and less than
half dozen bills have been passed out
of something over one hundred neces.
sary to be passed at the present session.
1t is the old story. Representatives,
seeing a long session ahead of them,
think there is time enough vet" and
finally, latein the session, are confront.
ed BY the disagreeable fact that most
of the work cut out for them to do re.
mains unfinished. Then comes the
driving process. Bills are hurried
through without due examination, in
Guiding many which have been pur.
posely delayed in their introduction,
In order to rush them through without
such examination, the session closes
with important work unfinished, and
the cool, dispassionate investigation of
the courts, detects constitutional de-
feets in laws enacted.
We hope we may be mistaken, but
as the regular sessions of the legisla-
tnre are now two years apart, We fear
an extra session will become necessary
to complete the legislation required by
our new constitution, and which could
and should have been completed at the
present session. The peoples repre-
sentatiyes should remember that they
were not elected to organize go-as-
you-please assembly.

Masonic SwINDLER.--A day or two
ago the secretary of Lake Charles lodge,
No. l65, f. and A. NJ, received letter
from the secretary of Petaluma lodge
No. N, California, inquiring into the
standing of w. Willie, claiming to be
member of Linwood lodge, No. 1911,
Lake Charles, La. Linn Wood lodge,
No. l67, is in New Orleans.
This w. Willie, alias Prof. Willie,
with probably hundred other aliases,
is one of the most notorious masonic
imposters and swindlers in America.
He was here about a year age. Since
then he has obtained money from va
rious masons abroad, giving them or
ders on masons here, which, of course,
were worthless. Willie is tall, has a
trick Of opening one eye (his weather
eye, presumably much wider than the
other, has dark complexion and black
hair, is very familiar with every one, is
quick spoken, and is very fond of wbis-
key, Billiards, and games of chance
His photograph ought to be in the pos
session. of every American lodge.
