legislative Notes

A bill to increase the salaries of the sew
eral County Clerks appeared in the House
Tuesday. An increase is asked for La
noble County, raising the salary from
$1,000 to $1,000, which Clerk Waite thinks
he should have, considering the vast amt
of work he has to do.
The vote of the House last Friday, by a
large majority, to expend $150000 on the
back roads" will meet with general
favor. The committee had reported
100000 as the amount, but an amend
ment that it be made $150000 went
through with a rush. This surely will
please the fatmers, who have always said
that the back roads had been neglected.
1t is now up to the Senate to ratify this.
The House did another good thing last
week in passing lump salary" bill
which makes the pay of members $500
whether the session be long or short. Be
sides this, 20 cents a mile each way is
voted. This is a wise settlement of the
matter of pay and we shall be mistaken if
the session is not considerably shortened
up, as the members will not care to pro-
long their stay, knowing just how much
they are to receive,

1908 Reunion

The Legislature of 1908 held its sixth
reunion Friday evening. At 7:30 T. c.
Cheney, the 1908 Speaker, called the
members to order and the Senate was ush-
cred in. A call of the roll by Chas. Plum
ley, 1908 Clerk, showed 60 House members
present and that 6S had died The Sen
ate roll call showed II present and that II
had died, besides the Lieut.. -Governor and
the chaplain, Prayer was offered by Mr..
Miller of Bethel and felicitous remarks
made by those called upon. The body
then repaired to the Montpeli-r House,
where "a sat down to sumptuous banquet
nicely prepared-a we'll served. After
cigars and cigarettes had been passed, T.
G. Cheney as POSTMASTER called upon sew
eral, who spoke feelingly regarding the
membership Of 1908, told of the excellent
makeup Of that body, the excellent work
it had done interspersing their remarks
now and then bya pat story and sharp
drive at each other. All we're heartily ap-
plauded and it was certainly several hours
of,merriment and good cheer. A standing
toast was drank to the memory of the de-
parted members. The occasion was
memorable one and already plans are I'm
der way for the best eve" reunion in
1923. Great credit is due John Untiedt
of Randolph, who has always been at the
head of the committee of arrangements
and who makes each successive reunion
better than its former one. 1t is worthy
of note that 1908 is the only body that
has had its biennial reunio IN without a
break since its date.
