The seieiun of the Legislature is now drawing to a close, mid ihe places that now know our Legie'a tor will oon know them no more forerer.

If no mom is done, in the closing days of the st.i.ion thut hoe yet been done, thou the people will be bitterly disappointed, ami the "last state" of our legislators will be much worse than the.ii first. Many tl them were elected with tin- fotnih expectation of their afi'i-rding some relief to the peoiilc, iiud muling ihe 'hard times" easier. They pimni-ed during the rnmpuign all soits ol things in order w calcli I'mes but they hate uot redeemed their pioiu ikes, and have digged iheir pniiucit! graves, from which many of tin m will never resurrect !

The greatest danger of a nut i- u advancing i.ip dly in wealth and luxury is u pioiieth -s to display, to unreality, to sham in all the all'uirs of life.
