"A great amount Of the time of the
Legislature has been heretofore appro-
priated to private legislation, and I
presume it will be Of this session. 1t
has been the custom to introduce an or
der to fix a time limit for the introduce
ton of petitions and bills relating to
private legislation, and these orders
have. heretofore, been introduced
somewha. late, so that it has been
possible to introduce private legisla-
ton at almost any time during the ses-
sion. Ne are all here to attend to the
wants Of people interested in private
matters, but we desire that they shall
present their claims early, so that We
may do the business before the Legisla-
ture as expeditiOusly as possible; and
at tits time I desire to introduce an
order fixing a time limit with view
to living parties interested in private
legislation all the time necessary.
tn ,refore introduce the following order.
