THE STATE LEGISLATURE.

WITHIN a few days the legislatures OF AZ states will be in session.
Political leeers are swarming around the statehouses, business men are
demandin; legislation needed for the development Of state resources, Of
flee seekers are camorous, and persons with notions and panaceas are
presenting their usual visionary propositions. II is a real mans job TO
be a member of a state legislature.
AS a whole the people of the several states do OF seem very well
satisfied with these bodies. Perhaps the worst trouble is that the most
capable II e are s. reluctant to take time off their business to serve the
state. There are always plenty of good and competent lei in every legis

A leg slator is very much on his honor when he gets TO the state

enjoys the session S a rest cure and sporting loaf.
