Sunday, that is work all day in IN
extra effort to adjourn Monday. To
day the auditors Office was crOvdCI

drawn. Your correspondent said 10

tunatc things haze happened 20 create
no little -~iaicule. The republicans H.

and max 10 bones Of saying so in The
plainest English.
The plan 10 have a state building Tor
records, library, etc, found very iitt!a
favor with this Legislature, as was in
deed expected, and the advocates Of
that measure saw very early in the
fight that nothing was to be done.
The plan for a reformatOry on any
extended scale was also found before |
less. TWO years hence there will be a
recoil and these things will be very
probably brought about, and then the !
.tonewall Jackson Training school
be enlarged, fully aided and made
a state institution in every way.
