MUST PUSH THEIR WORK.

With only six days of the regular legislative
session left the general assembly has much i'm
portant work to do. There is some talk of ex-
tending the session for ten days from next Satur-
day by vote Of the members. without pay, but
this will hardly be done What is to be ac-
complshed, in our opinion, must be gotten
through with this week.
In addition to the three important moral
measures-the antvice bill, the anti-gambling
act and the anti-shipping bl--which should be
passed, the appropriation bill has to be finally
disposed OF, the tax commission has to be pro
yided for, the primary bill remains unfinished,
the redistricting bill has hardly been considered
and many other measures. in which the pub
lie has manifested deep interest, have not been
acted upon.
All of the really necessary legislation can be
easily gotten through with If the members will
give up much speechmakng and come down
to real work, 1t is now too late to give up
much time to debate. Action is the thing
There will not be much difficulty We suppose,

neither numerous nor great The house will
