Did the legislature pass the Spanish
war veterans preference act, with the
expectation that Gov. Wolcott would
veto it? 1t is not an unheard of bust
ness for a legislature to throw re-
sponsibility of this kind upon a gov
ernor who is not coming up for re-elec-
ton. 1t is a pleasant and convenient
reflection to the Legislators that he can
not suffer politically by exercising his
veto power, while they might perhaps
incur unpopularity by rejecting the
bill. Gov. Greenhalge's example is a
good one to follow.
