A TRUE STORY.

Mary had a little lamb,
It's fleece was white as snow,
But when she got a Lady "lmperial'
She told the lamb to go.
1t followed her to school one day,
With Mary on her bike
1t Was a ladies' Imperial you know,
The wheel all women like.
1t made the children stop and gaze, I
To see her lovely steed,
And forthwith they all envied her,
For she was in the lead.
So they all to their "Papas' went
And said, "We want an~'lmperial'.''
We must have one, we will have one,
For us You'll surely work.

Legislative Notes.

Mr.. Adams, of Parke, has introduced a
deficiency bill for the payment Of salaries
of Supreme Court Clerk and deputies.
The State University's claim for a sixth
of a mill tax is before the House. None Of
the money can be used for building pur-
poses.
The Eastern Hospital for the Insane
wants a 100000 appropriation for new din
ing rooms and cottages. A bill containing
the request is in the House.
Mr.. Howe, of Morgan, asks that tracts
of five acres or more, used for agricultural
purposes, in towns of ten thousand or less
be assessed as other township property.
There was a rush of Representatives to
the warrant clerk at noon yesterday and
a number of board bills were settled in the
afternoon. Many members will spend Sat
urday and Sunday at home.
Mr.. Petit has a small liquor bill that
only provides for a fine of from $40 to $50
and Imprisonment in the county jail from
ten to sixty days for selling liquor during
prohibited hours or on holidays.
Mr.. Van Arsdeps coronial bill prevents
coroners from sitting on bodies where
there is no evidence of death from vio-
lence. He also has a bill to compel scien-
tiffc temperance instruction in the Indiana
schools.
Mr.. Lambert's bill allows common coun-
ellis to make only one redistricting of a
city or town into wards in two years. The
apportionment made by County Commis-
sioners shall be followed out as closely as
possible.
Mr.. Kamp, of Evansville, thinks Commits
sioners in counties having over fifty thou
sand inhabitants should only receive 81, 200
a year each. He would punish by imprison-
ment for any allowances made by COM
missioners to themselves.
The fee and salary legislation proposed
by Mr.. Allison, of Brown, viii probably not
be seriously considered. His bill puts clerks
recorders and sheriffs on fees, gives audi

BASIS of ApPoRT1oNMENT.
MisapprehensfOn as to Law OIL the
Subject Explained.

Many persons, not fully understanding the
law on legislative apportionment, have
found cause to complain that Senator Wish
ards bill does an injustice in some cases.
The people of Madison county complain
that they are given two Senators Jointly
with two other counties, when the county
contains more voters than the senatorial
unit. Senator Wishard. in speaking of this
last night, said:
THE people have an erroneous impression
made on a basis of the vote cast at any
ton of votes made in 1889. A number of
counties have so per cent. more votes now
than they had at that time, but the law
provides that the enumerations. made every
six years, shall be the basis of all appor-
tionments. All counties fare alike in the
matter, except that in some the in
crease in the number of votes has been
greater than in others. Taking, for in
stance, the vote Of 1894 as a basis, the unit
would be 5,626 voters for a Representative
and II, $50 voters for q Senator, or, in fact,
nearly 10 per cent. more, for the entire vote
was not cast"
The enumeration upon which the appor-
