 Sore About That Mileage Ruling.
 At the rate of 25 cents a mile for one round trip, legislators from towns in this part of Windham county. most of the state capitol, will get a mileage all lowance of $2S.50. As the cost of round trip between Putnam and Hart easily be figured how long that S28.5O is going to last. During the session of 1911 legislatore attended more than 100 session days at the capitol, and while the deliberations of the general as- sembly will not be anywhere near as long drawn out this year, It is a cinch of a bet that $28.50 will be used up by an attending member, as a general rule, before the first day of March. And then-who pays the bill? Not me-" says more than one of the representa- tives. We are entftlded to as much as others have had"
