Hill put forth the idea that where the state edllut:u“ldmol teacherg and spends great sums of mon- ey for schools, the teachers should, in his opinion, give some service free to the state in recogmition of Wwhat the state has done for them. He said that teachers go where they get the best re- turn and the state gets nothin gfor fit- ting them. He thought each should give Senator H. S.

In a short speech the semator said M he believed the senators were desirous of having a civil service law in force and not have the session close without such a law. Senator Hall of Willington questioned the standing of a petition if it did not apply to pending legislation. It devel- oped that attached to tais petition wa: the draft of a civil service bill, and it was on this point that Senator Hall was inclined to base his objection. Senator Seymour, in his speech, claimed that the legislature had been placed in a wrong light, for the inference was that it was| against the merit system. He attributed this_impression to the personal attitude of J. Henry Roraback and Representa- tive John Buckley toward civil service. The lieutenant governor admitted the petition and bill, but Senator W. H. Hall had actlon.of reference t6 the judiclary committes delayed whila he examined the bill.
