rnoM A STAFF CORRESPONDENCE. /,

HARRISBURG, May 8. Special calendars
of Senate bills will take up great deal of
the time of the House this week, and the
discussions on second reading, which have
SO delayed business, will likely break out
afresh. Usually the House has been cred
tied with putting through the crude and i'll
considered measures Of the session, and the
Senate has been depended on to lick them
into shape or defeat them. But now 1t is
claimed that the rule has been reversed, and
that the Senate has dumped a lot of useless.
if not mischevious legislation into the
House, believing that the most of it will get
its quietus there.
tits fact that Senatorial courtesy" has
been pushed to its furthest limit this win
ter, and that many bills which should have
been promptly defeated, haye slipped
through, to clog the calendar and delay
business in the House. There is consider
able complaint about it, and the knife is
said to be out for number of measures. All
of this will delay necessary business.
Plenty of Talk Ahead.
There will be oceans of talk, amendments
galore, .refusals by the Senate to concur,
conference COmulGtceS, anu CONSEQUENT TOLL
calls, all of which will consume valuable
time. 1t is possibly too much to hope tnat
Legislature will some day be chosen which
will deal with measures solely upon their
merits and the need for them, but it would
be an auspicious day for the Commonwealth
when such plan was inaugurated.
There are a number of important meas
ures on the calendars of both branches. The
conference committees reports on the Pitts.
burg street bills, the appointment of a con-
ference committee on the road bill, the AL
leghenY Judgeship bill, and the bill to in
crease Judges salaries. are all measures
which will have to be acted upon this week.
1t is promised that the Taggart tax bill
and the Baker ballot bill will both be re-
ported to the Senate by Tuesday or Wednes-
day, and their Importance will, or at least
should, insure their speedy consideration.
The bill creating q banking department
comes over to the House, but is to be
amended in committee, in accordance with
the changes mentioned in The DISPATCH
last week. As it passed the Senate it was
a rather dangerous measure. The Brooks
wholesale license bill has a hearing ON
Tuesday.

The Candidates Are Thick.
