The ses- sion of 1915, which adjourned May 18, was the next shortest and the session of 1837, the first heid after the adop- tion of the amendment to the con- stitution providing for biennial session, was the third shortest. The record for longevity was made at the session of 1911, when the lesis lators sweltered through the hot sum- mer months and continued to the dis- may of the farmers through harvcst time and untll it was about time to think of new cider.

Sonator Hinckley of the “shoestring aistrict in New Lendon county, has dubbed the legislature of 1917 as the twenty-million-dollar session. One of the @ifculties which the committee on appropriations had to eontend with was caused by the demand for increase in salaries. Senator Boyvd, chairman of the committee, sald the other day that the request, if granted, would have called for a total increase of $160,000, and that the increase ailow- ed amoimted to about $40,000. One of the bills which the committee turncd down was that to increase the salar- ies of the judges of the supreme and superior courts. Definite_action was taken to estad lish a reformatory for women on a farm of several hundred acres. The bill, formidable in bulk and wide in scope, which was tne product of tne legislative wisdom of Fairfield county guided by John T. King and which was known as ‘the “omnibus bill" was re- ierred to a committee on general wel- Taylor's souvenir bill which calls for an appropriation of $4.000 pass:d both houses, but it Is a question.
