s CONNECTICUT A CORRUPTION
 RIDDEN STATE?
CNew York Evenine Postl

CNew York Evening Post)
 The people of Connecticut evidently think that New York state has got a good thing in it's public utilities com mission law. Yesterday, in the lower house of the Connecticut legislature, there was a battle royal between the Chandler bill, modelled after the New York statute, and the Barnum meas ure, contrived in. the intrests of the railroads and the trolley lines. Con necticut has long had a railroad com mission of the weak type,'' with pow CT only to scold. Places upon it have been political plumS, whose net effect has been to draw salaries from the state treasury and to furnish passes Tor the commissioners and their fam ines. The Barnum measure proposes to except from the Jurisdiction of the new commission steam and electric roads. It is charged that the attorney Of the New Haven road is its author. The Chandler bill would do away with the present railroad commission, and give the new commission power over all public service corporations. The presence and activity of lobbyists and corporation managers on the floor of the house became so Scandalous yes terday that the speaker amidst an up- roar, finally ordered their election. After it seemed violently probable that the Chandler substitute for the major ity's recommendation of the Barnum measure would have slender major 1ty, three votes changed with suspi- cious rapidity, and the substitute for the majority report was negatived, 105 to 103. The legislative session has already been unprecedentedly pro- tracted by the lively fight over this: matter so that even in the corruption ridden state of Connecticut the notion Of adequate corporate regulation seems to have found wide popular support.

A constitutional amendment limiting reasonably the length of the General AssembIy's sessions, would undoubted- Iy be adopted by the people. They are both angered and disgusted by the length of the present session. Seven months. and the eighth commenced. in much too protracted a period. The en- 4jre business could have been trans uefed in three months. but for pro- crastination by committees, and pro- 1fxffy in debate. Many of the so-called speeches could be best described by the familiar old phrase "Diarrhea of Worda and constipation of ideas" Nor would 1t be necessary to have annual eeesfone. in the event of a three-month 7lmft being adopted. Especially would |<hlE bo true. if properly endowed Ep1zb1ic utilities commission should be ksated. for it would relieve the Gen
