The speed attained by some Of the
committees during the past week In
the work in the committee rooms again
brought to the front the question OF
time of adjournment-and as usual it
ranges from the last Of March to the
middle OF April. March will expire on
Saturday, allowing three weeks for
the completion Of business. But few
legislators are found who are willing
to say more than lit might possibly be
DONE"
For strenuousness the week just
passed has a page of it's own in the
history written or unwritten-of the
18th Maine Legislature. 1t did not be-
gin it's work until Tuesday afternoon,
owing to the many townmeetings Of
Monday throughout the State, but it
jumped into the work with a vigor and
vim that made some of the timers
take notice. Hearings lasting through
an entire afternoon was the rule and
some Of em Tapped over pretty heav-
lily into the evenings. However, they
were accomplishing something and are
forgiven.
Lobster Hearings
The coming week sees the advertised
list Of hearings very materially cut
down from last week, but enough re-
mains to keep all hands busy. HOLSTERS
will again show their colors-both green
and led-before the committee on sea
and shore fisheries on Tuesday, when
the two acts providing for the abol-
ishment of the office Of sea and shore
fisheries commissioner and the act IA
Vored by the New England commits
sioners for a uniform 101a-inch lobster
low will be heard.
Wednesday will sec another Water
Power Commission discussion, when
the Baxter bill will be explained, advo-
Gated and opposed before the commit
tee on judiciary. The Baxter bill pro-
vides for a commission to investigate
the States rights in the water powers
within it's confines and the hearing will
doubtless bring out many things not
touched on in the Dutton bill hearing.
Interest in these matters are so great
that big crowd is expected.
The act extending the time in which
the consolidation and reorganization of
the railroads making up the Boston &
Maine system may be effected will be
the subject Of a very important hear
ing. Tuesday afternoon before the COM
mittee on railroads, telegraphs and ex-
