The committee on appropriations re-
ported unfavorably on the resolution
making an appropriation of $4,000 for
the purchase of land in New Haven for
the Connecticut agricultural expert
ment station.
When the report was read, Mr.. Fris-
bic of Pennington said the specific ap-
preparation law is now in effect, it hav-
ing been signed by the governor. This
law puts the burden of making appro-
priations on the committee. If the
committee granted all the appropri-
ations asked for they would amount to
81 ,000 900 more than the revenues of the
state. The expenses of the state are
large. If they could make the revenues
meet the expenses they would receive
the applause of their constituents. The
committee has adopted the rule that
they will be guided by the considera-
ton if the appropriation is of such
character that the interests of the state
demand it, or if the honor and obliga-
tions of the state require it. If it is,
the appropriation must be passed. The
state will pay every debt of honor and
every obligation. Other bills must be
passed by. The bill asking for the pur-
chase for $4,000 of a piece of land in
New Haven for the Connecticut agri-
cultural experiment station has been
before the committee. He had no doubt
that it would be a good thing for the
state to own the land. But if the COM
mittee decided in favor of this bill they
would have to decide in favor of others
which came within their rule of obiec-
ton. The committee will report no bill
that can wait. This bill can wait
The resolution was rejected and the
report accepted.
