The pattangaIl Order.

At first glance the order presented
til Tuesday, THAT no bill or resolve
carrying an appropriation of money
shall be finally passed prior to the first
day of March, 1911" appears desirable.
But looking at ii from another angle
we would offer suggestion for the
consideration of the legislators.
Recognizing and admitting the hu-
man tendency of lawmakers to secure
all they can, each for his own district
or constituency even to the promotion
of undesirable legislation in exchange,
we question the wisdom of holding up
all the measures until a certain period.
Would it not promote just what it was
intended to avoid? Would it not give
those working for particular meas
ure ample opportunity to perfect
trades with others and thus buck the
line of treasury defense in a sort of
living wedge?
The assembling of appropriations
and resolves in order to prune pro-
portionate part from each between Feb.
10 and March l, has an alluring SOUND
TO the legislator unfamiliar with lobby
ing and swapping votes. 1t seems to
him to be an eminently sensible plan to
assemble all these so that every mem
Der may know the total before any is
passed. But how many of these new
law makers could forego the tempta-
ton to sacrifice the States interests
to the extent of helping put through
some other fellows "unimportant' bill
for the sake of securing the passage Of
his own important" one?
More or less trading is bound to be
done, even where bills are passed one
by one as they come up. but with
twenty days in which to log-roll on the
grist suggests the probability that all
will be ground out together-except in
the case of certain urgent" ones care
fully provided for.
If the order is passed the inexperi-
enced legislators will do well to watch
for the first infraction of the rule. We
predict that the fathers of the order
will be the first to break it; the first to
discover emergency matters and the
necessity for suspension of the rule.
If this order was conceived with the
portunity to obtain public credit for
exercising the veto power, the point
was we'll taken.
Daily Kennebec journal., 1911-01-16
Excellent Facilities Here.
lEau River Evening Herald)

The announcement that the Fabre
steamship line, now running out of
New York to the Azores and to French
and Italian ports, is seeking a New
England location for its terminal i'll
this country ought to interest the
business associations of this city. 1t
is stated that the officials have been
carefully examining Narragansett bay,
and looking into facilities offered LOT
the handling of freight. Bristol har-
Dor has been called TO their attention,
but the steamships draw too much
water to float to the docks there, and
passengers ana freight would need to
be lightered. Fall River offers the
best facilities for q steamship line OF
this calibre in Narragansett bay and
as good as can be offered on this part
of the coast. Its water front is Skirted
by the railroad. so that arrangements
could be provided easily for transfer
ring passengers and freight dlrect
from the vessels to the railroad cars.
Ample wharfage could be provided
and every facility for eXpediting the
steamship company's business could
be afforded Besides that. there Is a
big annual business between this city
and the ports of the Azores. The
number Of Portuguese residents is
steadily increasing and they travel
freely between this country and the
home ports. besides doing considerable
freighting. Ii the Fabre line is really
looking for a convenient terminal IN
the United States. it could not do bet
ter than to consider the advantages
offered by Fall River. If the pro-
posed canal to Boston bay is con-
structed. as proposed, it would IN
crease the availability of the harbor
for trans Atlantic lines. furnishing
choice of routes. by railroad and by
canal. for forwarding freight AL
together. Fall River offers unexcelied
advantages to any line of steamships
that may be contemplating securing
a terminal in this vicinity. and steps
should be taken to bring that fact
to the attention of the officials.
