largest share of furs. A total of over $300,000 was realized. Prices were lower than st a similar sale ‘a year ago, but were considered satisfactory. Borne mink skins of which 5,000 were sold, brought as high as $10.25 and averaged about

the Legislature to pay their board during their-attendance at the an- nual sessions. This patriotic prin- ciple has been worthiiy continued by the City Council until today. it was in like manner followed by

successive Legislatures for 147 years.

in 1920 it was departed from in an evil hour by our present gov- ernment and Legislature. The mod- est $200 per session was increased to $500 per session, and the $800 for the legislative term ‘became $2000, which the people are now called to pay. Thps the traditions of past legislatures and the wor- thy example of our City" Council, were set at nought. Was ll because our legislators of today are alblcr men, more efficient. more atten- tive to their public duties than tllosc of the past that this was done? Wes it because they were more economical, more careful not to waste the people's money, or increase the people's burdens that this was done? We cannot think so.
