son two. Bennington two, Caledonia
two, Chittenden four, Essex one,
Franklin two, Grand Isle one, Lamoille
one, Orange one Orleans two, Rutland
four, Washington three, Windham two.
Windsor three. The only change was
the taking of one senator from Orange
county and adding it to Chittenden
county's portion.
Now that Chittenden county has four
senators the question as to how they
shall he distributed in the county has
come up for discussion. Hitherto It
has been customary to allow Burling-
