Since short sessions of the general assembly long ago went out of fash ion, there is no reason why a reform should be expected in 1911. The com ing session is booked for an extraordi- nary amount of business under cir cumstances not at all favorable to the curtailment of the session. There is no doubt Governor Baldwin would like to see less log-rOlling and more des- patch, as most Of his predecessors would, but he has no more power than had they to make the legislature ac- conpHsh things.

mr.. Ford Wants State Law
Compiled With.
PREPARING AN ORDINANCE
Since Death OF the Late J. J. o'oon'
nell, There Has Been No lnspee-
tien Of Plumbing and Poor Work
10 Said to Have Resulted.

Councilman L. l.. Ford has request
cd City Attorney j. A. Massie TO draw
an ordinance creating a city plumb
ing board as provided for by the
State law. MIR. Ford probably will
present the measure at the next meet
ing OF the common council In April.
The plumbing board is to be COM
posed OF three expert plumbers ap-
pointed by the council and 1t shall
be their duty 10 inspect all plumbing
done in the city, the members receiv-
ing certain fees for such inspection.
Il aslo shall be the duty OF the board
to conduct examination for plumbers
who desire to engage in business
in this city and any of such plum
beers who fail to pass the required eS
animation will not be allowed to do
business here.
While he held the Office OF superin-
tendent of sewers, the late j. j..
ODonnel, who was plumber by
trade, inspected the plumbing. After
his death, J. ii. Perry was elected TO
succeed him. Mr.. Perry was not
practical plumber and was unable to
perform the duties of the plumbing
inspector and it is claimed by some
that several instances the plumbing
put in since that time has not been
up to the standard.
The State law requiring cities to
have plumbing boards has long been
On the statute books, but the city
council has never complied with 1t.
Health experts regard sanitary plumb
ing as an absolute necessity for the
guarding of the city's health and, as
the State law requires that a plumb
ing board must be appointed, Mr..
Ford's measure no doubt will be
adopted by the council.

PORTSMOUTH QUINTET
MEETS DEFEAT HERE
Y.M.C.A. Team Gets Revenge
for WaIIoping of Last
Saturday.

IN its last game of the season last
night, the basketball quintet OF the
Young Mems Christian Association
turned the tables on the five OF the
Portsmouth association. winning by a
, score of 3S to 2S after fast and ex.
citing battle. The home players feel
that they are amply revenged for the
defea; they sustained at the hands OF
the visitors in Portsmouth last Sat
urday night.
Il was a peculiar coincidence that
the score of both halves of the game
was identical, the figures at the end
OF the first round being 10 TO II and
those in the second half being 10 TO
IA.
The home boys played a steady,
consistent game from the start. Mon
roe and Vann starring Malone play
ed a strong game at center, while
Cottrell, who takes Tom Meaniey's
, place on the five, put up his best
game OF the season. Captain Hamil-
ton also covered well throughout.
The crowd which saw the game
was comparatively small. but the en-
thusiasm was unbounded and at
times the cheering was almost deaf
ening.
