LETTER FROM MONTPELIER
SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.
October 10, 100:

October 10, 1902.
Last Thursday and Friday were com
paratively uneventful days in both
Houses. The funeral of Gen. Grout and
sporting events at Barre diverted the at
tention of members and not much was
attempted in the line of legislation ex-
cept the presentation of few bills.
Lieut.-Gov Stanton, as the represent
tative of the Governor also five senators
and five representatives attended the
funeral of Gen. Grout.
Monday afternoon session was well
attended and the machinery of legisla-
tion is now in good working order. No
bills of exceptional Importance have yet
passed either house. Yesterday an
unusual number of petitions for the re-
tention of the prohibitory law were pre-
scented.
The reelection of Senator w. P. Dill
bingham was marked by the unusual
number of brief speeches and passed off
without special incident, the senator and
his democratic competitor each receiving
the strict party vote.
The Senator from Essex presented a
bill reducing the legal rate of interest to
five per cent and about the same time
similar measure was introduced in the
House.
In the afternoon the Senator from
Essex introduced bill comforting quail
fed suffrage on women who are tax
payers in their respective towns and
cities. Last Tuesday evening at half
past seven the first meeting of the joint
committee on Temperance was held and
quite full and general expression of
views was elected from the members of
this important committee.
The many friends of Col. E. c, Ben
ton were pleased to greet him last
evening at the Pavilion. ~

Even New Hampshire Democrats are
hopeful enough to become candidates
for office. This is because of the sue
cess of the anti-prohibition campaign in
this state. Perhaps the Republicans
will be wise enough in the Granite state
to submit the question of regulation Of
the liquor traffic to the people as we
have promised to do.

Thrusting into Legislation subjects
concerning which the settled opinion of
the state is not doubtful ought to be dis
