No Holiday at Salem.

Washinoton's birthday. February 90,
is a legal holiday. but it is not legis.
lative holiday unless the legislature by
specific act chooses TO make IL 30.
Inasmuch as Washington's birthday
happens this year to fall on the 40th
day of the session (the usual day oil
sine die adjournment) 1t is probable
that business will be proceeded with
much as usual. The constitution oi
the state does not limit the sessions 10
40 days, but does limit the total com.
pensation OF each member to $l20 at
$3 per day; therefore. few Legislators
