 AN UNWARRANTED CRITICISM
 Some careless newspaper writer
 who are unmindful of the feelings 0 ' the democratic administration have ac i cused the first state legislature 0 y having filled the capitol building iron q cellar to dome with commissions 0 e one sort or another, creating as muc e pie as possible for the hungry. Thi n is an unfair criticism. An inspectio r of the capitol building yesterday, dis = closed the fact that while the regula q office rooms are all densely populate . and the committee rooms of the legis n lature are all preempted, only DOT n ton of the legislative chambers them Il selves have been appropriated for of T flee purposes and there is still oppor z tunity for enclosing the front portic IS at slight expense. One elevator sha1 y is used for storage but the other T not in use at all and is big enoug $ to house a tWo-man commission an a stenographer There should be a
 extra session of the legislature by a
 means.
