As Mr.. HallOwell was not Of the class
who suffer very much by reason OF de-
vOtIon 10 principles, In 1875 he succeeded
as a republican candidate for the leglsla-
ture.
In the Legislative session Of 1879
Speaker d. o. Haskell placed Mr.
Hallowell on the judiciary committee,
and he introduced house bills No. 90 and
81. These bills may be referred 10 In
the following manner: In the committee
OF the whole house II was recommended
that No, 90, IAN act 10 provide for the
protection Of birds and game, and re-
pealing former acts" be stricken from
the calendar.
No. 81, "An act providing for the as
sessment and taxation Of dogs, and the
protection Of sheep and goats" became a
law, but the Legislature Of 1877 repealed
1.-THE senate by vote Of 25 to 8; the
house Ofrepresentatives by vote Of rs
to8
II the proof Of the pudding be in the
eating Of 1t, so by parity Of reasoning
may the value Of a legislator be estimat
cd, considerably, by the character Of the
bills that he introduces for enactment.
