The Legislature.

The legislative session of 1909 is a part
of the history of the state. Perhaps the
best that can be said of it is that it was
productive of little If any vicious legisIa-
ton and perhaps that fact, is important
enough to overbalance in a measure the
failure of the legislature to: do some things
that it was expected to do, and which. it
certainly ought to have accomplished. IT
has disappointed the people of the state
in falling to create a tax commission, in
failing to pass an inheritance tax law. in
refusing to take the purely educational In
stitutions out Of the hands Of the board Of
CONTROL in omitting5 to:create state high,
way commission. in failing to require GER
tain corporations to come under the juris-
diction Of the state courts, In not slib
mitting a proposition for a majority vote.
on constitutional amendments. But most
of all. it has failed to meet it's RESPONSE
bilities in not providing for the submission
! OF a tax amendment to the constitution.
On the other hand, the legislature has
submitted a simple gross earnings propo-
sition; it has provided for the taxing OF
the fast freight lines; separate ballots for
constitutional amendments; new codi-
fication of the game laws; has strength
ened the pure food laws; increased state
aid to the public schools, and passed a.
bill regulating the use of trading stamps
These are among the most important re-,
suits of the session.: r. :.
While considerable radical and some
vicious legislation has made its appear
ance. nothing OF that. kind 50 far as we
can recall, shas-been enacted into law. The
house, made Up very largely Of new and
Inexperienced men. has responded more
closely to the wishes Of the people than
the senate. The latter body, spoken oY as
ltra-conservative. contains strong ele-
ment dominated by special interests, to
which must be credited the responsibility
for failure to submit a constitutional tax
amendment. w. e.
On the. whole, -. the session has been
rather of negative cl1ara cter,, and on the
theory that no Legislation is better than
vicious legislation, the session may be re-
viewed by the public with more COM
placency than ii it had been productive Of
greater results. not always characterized
by prudence and wisdom. .: :~54" e..
