These gentlemen are well posted in the

good deal OF money in circulation. This
speaks well for Grayson county after an
extremely short cotton crop, and shows
the saving grace Of small grain, corn and
hogs in an agricultural country.

LEGISLATURE.

The proposition to hold biennial
sessions of the legislature was car
ried by a large majority, but after
the trial thus far made the wisdom
of the change is seriously ques-
toned. The constitutional limit of
sixty days was retained, and when
the time taken in organizing and
getting to work, internissiOns, holt
days and Sundays are taken from
the two months, not over thirty or
forty days for actual work are left,
the equivalent of fifteen or twenty
days year. This is not sufficient
time in which to do all that Is de-
manded, and do it we'll. One half
the time is lost in amending and re-
pealing ill-advised and hastily drawn
laws, which would net have passed,
at least in the shape they did, had
more time been allotted for maturer
consideration. ..#
A state which is developing as
rapidly as Minnesota requires more
legislative work to properly meet
new conditions and emergencies
than a commonwealth which is com.
pleted. Our entire code of laws
needs revising and expanding. The
state constitution itself could be i'm
proved by careful amendmet. .,a.
There is needed a convention COM
posed of the a5lest and clearest-
headed men in the state to revise it
throughout and submit a new one to
the people. ... ... .,.rr -.5.,,.

Quate, but in certain features unjust
and pernicious; the railroad aud
warehouse statute needs very mater.

law is demanded and a score of
other matters scarcely less import.
antiwill demand attention. Besides,
there is a United States senator to
elect and such elections frequently
consume great deal of time. The
next Legislature will need be very
industrious to complete its business
within the allotted time. In fact. it
can not do justice to all business of
Importance in the brief space of
