to Hear the Stamp Advocates on
Thursday Next.

Dover, March 4.-The House transacted
no buseiness of importance and the same
lethergy charactorizes the Legislature as
from the first day IL assembled in extra
session at Dover in January. II pays the
members of the Legislature and that Is
enough for the people to know about the
dolngs of tho solousat Dover.
Tho legal commission is hard at work
earning their five thousand dollar fees
each and for such a sum q show Of long
and tedious work has to be shown or tho
people might raise a howl of protest when
they present their bills for services ren,ler-
ed. 1t Is expected that some OF tie bills
will be ready for the Legislature to act
upon the coming week.
Tho bill increasing the representation in
Kent and Sussex counties has arrived. 1t
is probable the bill will be killed in tho
House.
Representative Hazell offered bill to
extend The time for recording private acts
passed ut the last session one year. An
other by Mr.. Smith, was to take the ap-
preparation for teachers Institutes out Of
the general fund instead of the school
fund

to pay tho balance due for the repairs and
alterations to the State House. Tho

priation for the work was 5000 which has
been paid, making the total cost ST., 467. IL.
The State House is now iu better cundi-
tion than 1t has been for several years and
except some new furniture 1t Is thought it
will last until the next flood.
The Seventh day Adventists in the low.
er part of the State want the Legislature
to provide some other day than Saturday
for registration day. because Saturday Is
their Sabbath. The elections should never
have been held on Saturdays and it is time
that the Legislature fixed some other day
for 10.
Representative Donaldson introduced
bill which is expected to provoke consider
able discussion among sturgeon fisher
men.
The bill provides that any one may fish
for surgeons in Delaware wators upon the
payment of u license. Some of the fish.
ermen are In favor of the bill, whilo others
want fishermen from other states kept out
of Delaware waters. Several delegations
are expected here in reference to the bill
before it is finally considered. If the fish
ermen are rs pointed In their remarks us
usual 1t Is likely that the discussion will
be decidedly animated.
WANTS TO REDUCE INTEREST.

troduced his bill to reduce the legal rate
CT interest in this state from . to s per cen
tum alter July next. If this bill should
