|27| new Inns ENACTED.

/ lSldIlVe DlllS except during Line last
week Of the session, indeed, the leg
islature gave him little opportunity to,
but the last week both houses worked
night and lay and turned out laws in
record time.
We said last week that the Governor
had vetoed the game bill that required
every hunter to have license, and
fixed the fee at $1.00 but we took too
much for granted, because the same
day he signed it, as result, when
the farmer wants to kill rabbit on
his own farm, he must first come to
Ed. Sturgess, County Clerk, and put
down a dollar. Another year of such
law making and Jerseymen will have
to get license to draw a long breath.

ator Browns bill, No. 80, which ex-
