JUNKETlNG AND BANOUETING
The Legislature has done fairly
good work SO far, considering the
TACT that SO much junketing and ban
quoting has been done. There seems
to be a disposition on the part of
both Houses to investigate everything
that will give an opportunity for as
many of the members as choose to
take railroad trip to Lexington,
Richmond, Louisville, Eddyville and
other places. One honest man in the
Senate has uttered his protest a
gainst such waste of time and waste
OF money, and The Citizen is free
to join him in saying that II institu-

better be done by a small committee
from either or both Houses. Not only
could the work be done better but
