TO PREVENT
LAXITY
In
the Conduct of State
Institutions
PURPORT. OF BILL IN HOUSE
Bill to Do Away With Present Cattle
Commission and Appoint New One
of One Member Appoint
ments by the "Governor,
Montpelier, Xov, 1. -So much hubbub
and distraction was present today that
the Vermont legislature could do little
actual work. There were something like
1,00ft visitors, who came from all parts
of the state to see the solons at work.
They crowded, and blocked al! avenues
and rooms of the Slate House; and their
corning and goings diverted the atten
tion of this, legislators. Then there were
two joint assemble, the first to listen
to T. S. Palmer of the department of
agriculture at Washington, 1). C and
the other to welcome General L. A.
Grant of .Minneapolis, who commanded
a Vermont regiment in the Civil war.
The Norwich university Vadets also oc
cupied a part of the day with their
drill on the grounds. Taken altogether,
there is little wonder that the Vermont
legislature is not waking better prog
ress. To prevent laxity in the conduct of
state institutions is the intent of a bill,
presented in the Senate today by Sen
ator Stafford of Lamoille county, As
Senator Stafford was a member of the
state commission who recently invest!
gated the state institutions, be is in
a position to understand the rpiire
meats. His bill provides that the direc
tors of state Institutions mi'st vit
tfieir institution at least one a month
and together every other month; the
regular meetings must be held at t!;o
institutions; failure to attend tw suc
cessive meetings without just cause is
to be considered sufficient reason for
dismissal, fine meinlter of the Wml is
to l designated a purchasing agent
of hi institution. The pay of the di
rector shall 1 ft per day and
penses. '".. , .,
Among the bills introduced in the
House today are the following: By
Mr. Cady of Middlobnry to provide for
extermination of the San JoscmIc and
gypsy and brown tail moth (it empow-
ers the governor to take steps neces- )
si.ry); by Mr. Cutting of I'tainfield to
enable the Restoration society of Plain
field to dispose of its proerty.
A bill introduced in the1 Senate today
by Senator Davis does away with the
present hoard of cattle commissioners
and provides for one commissioner to
Is- appointed for a term of two years.
Ho shall up . appointed by the (Invernor
and shall have supervision (!f the im
portation of all cut tic and shall cause
to lie killed all animals having eoii
tiigioiis diseases. All antmal killed shall
Ik- appraised and the owner paid CO per
cent fif their values by the state (pres
ent, law is Ml per pent). The hide- goes
to owner and the carcass h to lie de
stroyed so that it cannot, be. used for
food.
Senate Kills Plurality Bill.
The Senate yesterday afternoon killed
the lloiwe bill to make plurality elect
on the fourth ballot in the case of rep
resentatives. Senator Stafford of
luoille contended that, the old-fashionel
rule of majority ought to lie retained
rather than make it. possible for a mi
nority to prevail, Senators Somers ami
How laud, favored the proposed bill, for'
the reason that every town should In
represented, and no town should be com
pelled to vote for two or three days
to elect a man. Senator ( ha-e of
Windham saw no jiisth-e in the proposed
change. Senator Taylor favored. By
a vote of H to Ifi the bill was killed.

Jackson Is-iug chairmen respec
tively, on khtee railroad bills, the most
important of which is that to abolish
grade crossings. Jttdae II. 11. Powers,
attorney for the Rutland railroad, pi'"- j
scuted a plea auain-t the grade crossimi
bill and asked for a conference Itelween
a sub committee of the legislative com
mittee and the representatives of the
railroads, at hich an eipiitible measure
miht be drafted. Judge Powers said
that while the ncivssity of putting in
three or four overhead or under passes
each year would not "bust" hi com
pany,' it would wiiouslv incommode it.
But several of the smaller roads of the
state would have to go into the hands
of receivers if they were compelled to
uliolish four grade crossings each year,

Aftcr- '-tttlWn fight W. R. Daley
last nisiht won an important point in
bis fitrht for the Beiininton county
stale's attornevship agaiu-t W. J.
Meagher,, who was .declared elected by
a majority of sixteen - vote. Meaither
was the fusion candidate and Daley the
Republican, ami the latter was serving
as state's attorney at the time of the
l ici t ion. The point raised by Daley
yesterday was that, there had been a
mistake in count in ome of the towns,
and he therefore asked that the votes
lie brought to Montpelier t be counted.
This was opposed by Meagher through
his attorneys, W, A. Ird of Montpelier j lieen condemned .as 'infected W illi tuber
and .1. W. Cordon of Barre, who claimed j culosi. knowing that they' were to be
that the canvassing committee, liefore iiseil for food pin -poses." The transactions
whom the hearing was held, had no right jalleued cover a period extenditiir bet ween
to o back of the certificates of dec- January 1. l!Mi.". and June Hint;, and jn-
t ion. Attorney Weston and Judgei II.
11, Powers thought the committee did
have a risht 'to count (he votes, and
the committee by n vote of '24 to 13
decided that it was their privilege. They
therefore authorized a sub-committee to
bring the ballots to Montpelier to enable
a recount. The fight fs one of the hard
est ever fought in the legislature and
it was followed yesterday with more
interest than the legislature itelf. It
is hinted that if all the votes were re
count ed. it might, show the elcctbiij of
a fusion senator. The contest is likely
to ding through the entire session. Itcn
ningtoii county is intensely interested
in the result.
