SECRET SESSIONS
Want Fence Around Capitol 10
 Keep Out Iniruders.

The presence of few more men like Senator Farrel of Ansonia in
 the senate would be apt to result
 in the passage of an order for a
 stout picket fence around the Capi- tol building at Hartford so that no- body outside the law makers might
 be in a position to see or hear the why and wherefore of what takes place there. Yesterday the senator found fault with thes crowd and suc- ceeded in having sent to the commit tee on rules a resolution to the effect
 that the doorkeeper prohibit anyone from entering after the seats on the side of the room are occupied. When the question was put 1t re- suited in tie, eleven favoring 1t and eleven opposing. but Lieutenant-Gov-
 ernor Lake, the chairman, agreed
 with Senator Farrel and it went on
 to the committee. This is in line with the spirit of the times both in public and private matters Every body who owns anything wants it fenced in. Until the law came to the rescue many manufacturers had glass windows that admitted light, but nobody could distinguish any, thing else through them. Most municipal boards are opposed to yis- itors and as consequence the great CT portion of their business is trans acted behind closed doors, so that in aiming to convert sessions of the gen. eral assembly into star chamber af- fairs Senator Farrel is simply mak- ing an effort to carry out in the<gen- eral assembly what appears to be going on almost every place where few men meet to do business of any character. private or public. Senator Farrel uttered truism when he said 1t was very inconven- tent to have the people around when you don't want them. Of course this is especially true when public men know they are acting contrary to the interests of the onlookers.
