Trivial Bills Have Occupied Jtearly the Bntlre Time of tlie General Assembly , - Amending Ohlos Constitution The . Slate's Finances Salary Uuestloii In. ; pottnnt Flail Bills Introduced Legis lative Note a. ' Colchbus, O., Feb. 20. . Tho present gi neral assembly is being criticised the state over for the light weight legislation that has been proposed, and the country member has come in for rather more tlinn his just share of the blame for this state of affairs. While it is true the country member has proposed his usual amount of trivial bills, yet the city member is just as guilty. Tlie pop gun and chicken bill came from a mem ber living in one of the large interior - towns, while the ferret bill came from one of the city senators. And while there may be and is a plethora of unim ' portant bills on both calendars and in the bands of all the committees, yet it is a fact that the city members are just as guilty of errors of omission in not pro- ' posing weightier subjects for legislation as are the country members. . It was thought that there would be no constitutional amendments proposed by the Seventy-first general assembly be cause of the utter impossibility of Aiuiiflini; Ohio's Constitution, jbut Dr. Deaton has proposed an amend jment that provides for local option in -taxation and abolishes the prohibition against the poll tax. Under this order of things the state would assess each county for its proportionate share of the state expenses and leave the method of raising the taxes to the county itself. This would give the men with various notions on taxation a chance to try their whims ;in different parts of the state, and per ihaps the single tax people might be able to get a county or two to try their mode ;of levying taxes. In the meantime the jpropoeition must receive a three-fifths , vote in each house of the general assem bly and a majority of all the votes at the election in the fall of 1895, at the - .time when the next governor and general 'assembly are elected. It is pretty hard - Ifor an amendment resolution to get nf lone of these three votes and a practical impossibility to get all three, so that it 'looks as if the single taxers and all the other people with visions will have to "vwait a while for opportunities to make trials in Ohio. , i - - Ohio's Finances , have been in worse shape than they are now in, but that is no sign that they could not be improved in condition. The appropriation bills for the next two years must tall $200,00(1 per year within the resources in order to give the improve ment that is necessary for present preser vation. Since the state received its wind fall from the government on the single tax return a few years ago there has not , been any advance drafts before the 15th jof November of any year. When the .state has to borrow from the future be fore the end of a fiscal year then trouble is apt to come. Before the windfall be fore mentioned the advance drafts at times amounted to several hundred thou 'sand dollars. At the rate of expendi- v -tares the necessities for advance druits of ithis vicious type will soon be at hand. The great cause for the trouble lies in i the fact that the state insists on putting up new institutions out of its general (revenues, while all of the old institutions show increased populations and corre- ispondmgly increased expenses eacti year. iThns the current expenses increase, ; money is being poured into the new structures and the revenues remain labont stationary. The present general 'assembly is expectad to devise some plan that will raise more revenue without in 'creasing the levy, and indeed it is thought . tthat the plan ought to go far enough to 1 auow tlie state levy to be reduced or ab- - Isolutely abolished. If this conld be 'done the Seventy-first general assembly ;would not have lived in vain, but the " idea of only having one session and the idelay that has characterized the session thus far does not portend the greatest success. Much, it is true, depends upon Ithe constitutionality of the Nichols law ipassed last winter, but the result of that suit will not be determined for one to three years yet. t If That Law I Upheld by tho United States supreme court a wide avenue will be opened up for future " legislatures to use their tax powers, and there is likely to be much of the Ques tionable sort of work done in that event 'unless the people are extraordinarily careful in the selection of their repre sentatives. In the meantime the state is bound to run along withy about half ' : enough revenues, with three unfinished . . institutions on its hands and with the ex penses of all the old ones on the increase '. because of the increased demands. In addition to all of this there are many hundreds of insane old soldiers, blind. deaf and dnmb and epileptics in the poor houses of the state. Is it any wonder mat tne average legislator, after, investi- gating this subject from all sides, stands aghast at the job consigned to him' bv . the people, and for which' he hustled to -ue auuunuuju anu elected r u Tho Salary Question ' seems to be agitating many good people com msiae ana ouwiue tne legislature. , and an accurate- statement of the law and situation may not be entirely out of place." - It is said that if the members of ", .the present legislature attend but one j session they ought to have but one year's pay, and many are throwing ont the to hinuationa that any member who will ' take his second year's nav withont anv . session being held would in the minds of ; the people be salary grabbers. In the ' ,.' first place it must be noted that the peo- - pie ana newspapers wtio ore most strenn i ' ons in making these insinuations and , statements are the very same people and ' newspapers who have been fighting bien nial sessions. The constitution provides that the term of a legislator shall be two . years. There are many offices that ' member of the legislature may not hold ; under the constitution until a year after - the end of his term, so that ha has some ' ,. disadvantages that do not fall to the lot qf ' the ordinary citizen. The constitution also provides that the salary of amarnherof tba irjriiuatnrp anai; not oe cilaayciTuarlng his term of office. This can mean nothing f xeept that the aa'.ary must not be rawed or lowerea. 1 his is all that the consti tution has on the question of salaries: tin amount of compensation is left to be aim bv the le.riali.tnre itself. The pres ent law on the subject of salaries is very plain and specific. It provides that the alary shall be 100 for oa-h year of the term ol nmee. ine remainine portions of the aalury section simply provide the maim, r in which the salary shall be drawn, so that it will be seen that the term of office is two years, that the salary is fixed for each year of the term and that the salary cau not be changed.. The question of the second year s salary did not arise nntil the anti-biennial session ists saw that they were likely to be beat en, in the house at least, when they be gan to throw out the arguments alone this line. Musgrove Mmllral Bill. The senate unanimously passed the Musgrove niedic bill the other day, and that, too, without anv discussion. It is safe to say that the house will not be as kind to this production as was the npper house. The lower body has long been noted for its deep-rooted antipathy to medical bills. At the present time there are many doctors in the state that are electioneering against the present meas ure. . They claim that there is not a thing of value in the Musgrove bill: the only thing it does is to create new places tnat alter tne nrst year will nave to be supported by the state. The bill does not prevent quackery nor traveling from town to town. The members of the board will draw a day each while on duty and the secretary $1,500 a year. After the 8,000 doctors who now practice medicine get their certificates at 15 a head, which .will bring in 840.000. there will not be much more than enough reve nue to pay the secretary's salary. There are about 250 students placed in the medical profession of the state each year, and they are to pay $15 for their certifi cates. After the house has amended this bill 25 or 3d tiincr m nav be willing to pass it, but it is a to" say that the few doctors who now tnink they want it will join their brethren in protesting against the enactment of the bill into a law. But if the Musgrove bill fails of passage there is the McBride bill in the bouse and the Avery bill in the senate that may be pushed forward. The doc tors are evidently with us to camp out for the whole campaign. On I hat Oiitn. The farmers and the lawyers of the house are now on the outs. The lawyers had a bill a few duj-s ago to prolong the time of a law student serving in a law yer's office from two to three years and also providwiff that the student must re main in the office for all of that time. The mere registering of a student's name with a lawyer and then going about one's business studying at odd times would not do under the proposed bill. The farmers almost to a man jumped on the proposi tion, and much bitter feeling was stirred up between the two professions. The farmers argued that it was only a scheme to get boys for lawyers' offices free of cost, ' thus shutting out the poor boys from the chance of becoming lawyers. The lawyers argued thut it was but a plan to raise the standard of education, which was going on in every other walk of life. The bill lacked but seven votes of passage. A reconsideration was ob tained, and a very funny incident oc curred at the time the reconsideration was carried. Mr. Griffin was one of the chief opponents of the bill during the dis cussion on the floor. When it came time to move the reconsideration a page boy went to Mr. Griffin's desk and told him that a man wanted to see him in the smoking room. Mr. Griffin went ont, and a gentleman talked to him very pleasantly for perhaps a half an hour. While this conference was going on the motion to reconsider was made and car ried. Mr. Griffin was not a little sur prised when he returned and learned what had been done, but it was then too. late to do anything. Contested Election Cases. The contested election cases are about over. The senate disposed of its only one by keeping a member in his seat. This contest was one of the most peculiar that has ever arisen. The election officers of a precinct neglected to return any votes from their precinct for senator. The head of the ticket showed that the man who lost his seat would in all prob ability have been elected if the returns had been correctly made. Under the election law the ballots are destroyed im mediately upon the conclusion of the count. Thus there was no way of going behind the returns. If the contestant had been seated it would have been on a phantom majority, for there was abso lutely no way of telling exactly what it would have been. In the house there were two cases. One was disposed of at the, first sitting of the committee. The contestant failed to show that he was an elector of his county and he failed to file the notice of his contest within the pre scribed time. This was ascertained at the first sitting of the committee, and a long-drawn-out contest was avoided. The other election case has been heard, and the committee is now formulating its re port. It will probably be filed with the house in a few days. What has been de termined upon has not yet been made public. If the committee decides in favor of the contestant and the house stands by the report, as it no doubt will, there will be 88 on the majority side in stead of 85, as at present. Fresh Flsht Several important fiish bills have al ready been introduced and are now in the hands of the committee on fish cul ture and game. While the main pur pose of some of these bills is to separate the commercial and sporting fishing of the state, yet the question of gill net and rand net fishing is looked after. There a move on foot to compel the pound net fishers to use a larger mesh on the "leads," which lead the fish along to the trap end of the rigging. The idea is to make the mesh large enough, so that the small fish can go through and not be caught. Many tons of these fish are taken from the waters of the lake every year and used for fertilizing, thus cut ting down the supply for food purposes. Then it is proposed that one side of the "heart," which, is the trap into- which the fish are conducted by the' "leads," shall have a larger size mesh, and that when the "heart" is pulled np to be emptied it shall be raised against this particular side, so that the small fish may slide through and escape until they are large enough to be caught for food. This question is always one that brings down the breezy fishers along Lake Brie, and - a windy storm is the result in fact that is about all that does result. The pound net men claim that the gill net fishers are at the bottom of the agita tion on tiie size of the mesh. There is a deep-seated war between these two factions. The gill netters use a fine thread mesh and sink their nets at the bottom of the lake in 25 or more feet of water. The meshes of these nets are so wide that the small fish are not caught. Thus while the factions war with one another the legislature finds it impossible to do anything whether right or wrong. , 1 , . ; A MMIBEK OF THtt HOUSE. , Bucklen'sArnloa Salvo.
