Is q recognized fact that not in a
dozen years has there been a session
where there has been so much ap-
parent harmony between the mem
bers of both house and senate and
the executive head of the state as ex-
lists at the present time.
The legislature has several big jobs
cut out for the next few weeks and
1t is safe to assume that there will be
something out of the ordinary to re,
lieve the calm which has thus far
characterized the session.
Governor Ferris Is radical upon some
of his favorite policies, but on the
whole his views are given wholesome
respect and there is feeling that
the governor has the best interests
Of the state in mind.
Governor is Worried.
Notwithstanding these pleasant re-
lations there is likely to be a severe
strain before the appropriations asked
for are disposed OF.
The needs of the state already
brought to the notice of the legisla-
ture, becomes more and more of an
issue as time passes. To what extent
the appropriations requested will be
allowed must be determined soon.
In the meantime the governor is in
a perplexing situation. He desires that
all real needs shall be met but the
tremendous amount represented in
the calls already made, and those yet
to come, is cause for worry on the part
of the chief executive Already he
has labored with several asking for
appropriations and has succeeded III
modifying fey demands, but even
with this to his credit he is faced by
situation that is certain to place
this session in the banner column in
the matter of financial legislation.
Direct Election of Senator's.
The house presented a harmonious
luton came up providing for direct
election OF United States senators by
the people There was absolutely no
opposition and Tie resolution passed
unanimouely. This is so much differ
ent than the consideration of a stint
lar resolution at former sessions that
the alacrity with vhich toe legislature
concurrod excited much favorable
comment.

A Change Of Firm.

After some four years Of service
here, Mr.. and Mrs. F. r. Patterson
have sold their millinery business to
Miss MARGARET Mcdonald of Alpena,
who took possession the last of the
week. Miss Mcdonald has left Miss
O'Brien in charge and she has returned
to Alpena to get ready to move to How

in person. Mr.. and Mrs. Patterson will
doubtless return to Owosso for time
until they locate in some other business.

Avalanche of Bills.

The early part of the session was
characterized by grist of bills that
was amazing but it was not circum.
stance to what has followed since.
Thirty measures were introduced in
one day, many of great Importance.
The first bill for redistricting the
state to provide an additional con-
gressional district was introduced b.
Representative Catlin. This starts
the ball rolling, but is only one OF
many. This proposition, as has been
said before, bids fair to lengthen the
sessions beyond the limits hoped Al
first.
