TArIyE NJ. HApv0oD Or PERU Plan
or ADJOURNED SESSION SUGGESTED.
The matter of adopting some meas
ure that will curiail our legislation and
better insure only sound, practical
laws, simple, plain, aud universal IN
application. has not only become a
pressing need, but has reached the
stage " general interest 10 the press
and people Of the state.
IT, need is beyond question; seem.
ingly the only question: for considera-
ton il the method 90 be used. OF the
three plans already proposed, that OF
district representation, selecting only
the bes, fitted for representatives. and
returning TO annual sessions, il is use
less. Just now. 10 discuss the merits Of
either, since no one OF them could be
applicable 10 the operations Of the
present Legislature, whose members
are already elected for single regular
session only,
However, another plan has been pro-
posed which could apply 10 present
use, and one so simple and, apparently,
effective, mourning little or no extra
expense, beyond what has often oc-
Cured, that il seems worthy OF discus
sion, at least, if not OF adoption.
1t is the plan Of deferring the final
passage Of bills, that have passed the
three readings in regular procedure,
TO an adjourned session, held at such
time a. may be determined upon-the
members, Of course, 10 draw no pay
for the intervening time, and the ad-
journed session 10 be devoted entirely
TO matters already passed upon.
PLAN or ADJOURNED SESSION.
The plan is so simple that il requires
no further illumination for its full un-
derstanding. II would need for adop-
ton only a joint rule Of the two honses.
Its peculiar advantages are these;
The entire elimination of :" rush"
Legislation during the last week. Upon
this point no argument is needed.
Due opportunity for the people and
the press 10 discuss, inspect, ventilate.
and advise, in regard 10 proposed laws,
before their final adoption, making the
measure virtual referendum.
The probable rejection, on account
Of deliberation, Of "A large number Of
bills that would otherwise pass.
The probable curtailment IN the
number of bills introduced, since mem

having their names connected with
doubtful measures, that must stand
this pressure.
With the undisputed fact before us
that large per cent. of the 100 laws
passed at the last session, would fail
TO stand against deliberation of this
kind with the admission that scores of
useless laws are today upon our statute
books as the result of last sessions
lack Of due care and consideration-laws
not only harmful of themselves, but
which poison those which would,
otherwise, be more effective how can
we fail TO be wide-a-wake TO the neces-
sity Of prompt, effective measures of
relief of some sorti As any such
measures would require adoption at
the beginning Of the session, there is
urgent need for their immediate con
sideration and discussion.
