THE NINTH WEEK
Opens with a Busy Session
Monday Afternoon,
Senate Recedes on Judges Salary
Anti-usury Bill Tabled.
Important Bill Revising and cadliyias I'M
Inland Fish and Game Laws.

The sessions ninth week opened with
a busy session an hour long. Monday
afternoon. The attendance was small,
not over half the members being pres
ent in either branch. The work was
mainly of routine nature. and few
besides the presiding officers had any
thing to say. Witham Of Cumberland.
presided with his customary grace over
the session Of the Senate. A long list
Of bills were passed to be enacted. and
there were many more resolves finally
passed than on any other previous day.
In the Senate the Morey anti-usury
bill which passed the House, Friday.
without division, was tabled by Blanch-
ard of Franklin The opponents of this
bill are active and they have evidently
selected the Senate for their fight. AS
was expected the Senate receded and
concurred with the House in indefinitely
postponing the bill increasing the
Judges salaries. Judge Stearns made
the necessary motion, after explaining
that the committee and Senate had
tried to do what was right in this mat
ter but realized the hopelessness of
passing the bill in the House. The
most important new bill of the day was
that revising and codifying the inland
fish and game laws of which a sum-
mary is given below This bill takes
~ printed pages and several important
changes are made in the present law.
With it was presented petition signed
by all the leading lumbermen of Maine
asking for legislation against persons
building fires on wild lands. Blanch-
ard of Franklin. presented bill re-
pealing the present bounty of 81 on
wild cats, which the last Legislature
created. He stated that 749 such
bounties were paid in 1898.
In the House. Hopkins of Deering,
put in a bill affecting the enforce
ment of the prohibitory law in Cum
berlAnd county. Its main provision is
that the liquor deputies shall receive a
salary of $500 per year and fees only
in case of conviction. Now they have a
per diem compensation and fees in
every prosecution whether conviction
results or not. Merrill of New Glouces-
ter, introduced bill allowing towns to
pay their selectmen a fixed yearly
salary in place Of the present per diem
compensation of $3.50. if they so pre-
fer. Hutchings of Brewer. introduced
bill extending from May 1 to Sep
