JSstin'S. Morrill,. the father Of the

The advocate., 1891-03-25

There Is no evidence 20 show that they
employed any clerk other than one OF thelr
number, Senator n. p. HArkness. Not a
single measure reported by this iscOmmlttee
ever became o law, except one which was
20 badly mutilOted that It's authors could
not recOgnlZeit.
AS comparison OF economy between
th3 two houses, we submit the fact that
the Senate, with forty members, had iIs
employees on It's payroll while the House,
with membership OF 1876, had only eighty
two; making q difference Of 8l29 per dSy
In the cost OF running the two houses.
In closing, we can safely say In refuta-
tlon OF the charges made by our political
enemies and given such Wide circulation,
that we did not consider or pass q single
bill that could In any way directly on iDdi-
reCtly disturb the relation OF debtor and
creditor, or jeopardise the collection OF
debts, or to repudiate any honest ObiiRA-
tiOn, and With this brief and careful sum
mary OF only few OF the important
measures considered and passed by the
Peoples House Of Representatives, during
the thirtleth session OF the Kansas LeQls-
lature, with the action taken thereon by
the Republican Senate, we know that we
can safely say 10 every business interest In
che state OF Kansas, that we have tried 10
carefully guard and protect the same IN
the interests Of the people OfOnrstRto, and
that they will not fail to see how unfortu-
nate 10 was, and Ia future will be, 20 have

object was TO Obstruct honest LEGISLATION
in the interest Of the people Of this state
