the most positive evidence of their
violation of the state law against
bucleetshops, and prosecution by the
board of trade will follow.
The decision has been practically
reached among the OucketShop men
themselves that opposition to the new
law will be useless, and they have

business and abandon the field.

greatly assisted by the agreement
made with the Western Union and
Postal Telegraph companies. These
companies agree to send out board OF

The Adjournment Of The Legislature.

The 10Th Legislature has completed
ing to their homes at TIE close of the
busiest session in the history of our
State. 1t has dealt with many impor-
tant questions. and its deliberations
were characterized by an obvious &c
sire to serve the best interests of the
State. 1t passed many important pub
lie measures, and in the strength of its
membership. will rank as one of the
ablest Legislative bodies that ever as
sembled in Augusta. The more the re
suits of it's labors are seen the better
they will be appreciated by the gen
eral public.
The volume of the business trans
acted was largely in excess of two
years ago. and the manner in which it
was handled reflects great credit upon
the various committees having it in
charge. Much credit is due President
Hamlin of the Senate and Speaker
Marley of the House. for the ability
and success with which they have per
formed the arduous and eXacting du
ties of their positions. Both have made
ideal presiding officers. and both richly
merited the good words said of them
in the closing hours of the session.
No small amount of credit is also due
Secretary Dunbar and Clerk Cotton for
the efficient manner in which they and
their able assistants have facilitated
the work of the session.
Both branches of the Legislature
have been fortunate the present win
ter in the exceptionally capable corps
of officials who have served them.
After all. the most valuable thing
man gets out of a legislative expert
cnce in our State, is the pleasant ac-
quaintances he makes with men from
other sections. Here friendships are
formed that will last through life and
any man who has added the pleasant
memories of these associations to his
book of life has acquired something of
great value that can never be meas
ured by material standards. The pay Of
our legislators is unreasonably low.
and were it not for these associations
there would be little to attract the best
men of our State to the expenditure Of
time and strength exacted by the work
of a session.
The people of Augusta will part with
the members of the 10Th Legislature
with regret, for its members have
made warm friends of our citizens.
whose cordial good wishes will attend
them in their future walks of life.
