THE“ RIGHT OF PETITION.
Ionator Luther Supports it Very Vla-
croaaly.
HARTFORD, April 29.-—Rigllt of pc-
tition was defended by Senator Luther
today, he claiming that this In full-
damental right or whi h the legisla-
ture cannot deprive a itizen Henry
E. Simmons, convicted of crime ill
VWindhanl county in 1905, petitioned
the legislature for the right to have a
new trial. The senate admitted the
petition, the house rejected it as new
business. it canto back to the senate
inldisa'greeih'g action. Senator Searls
said he knew all about the case. for as
state's attorney he brought about the
conviction of the man. He said that
the state‘s constitution gives a citizen
the right of petition at the propel time.
In the proper way, and for a proper
purpose. The petitioner when he should
plit in the petition and knew that a
limit was put on the introduction of
new business. The general assembly
has a right to put a limit of the time
for the reception of legal business. To
admit the petition was to open the
door for the reception of petitions of
all l..inda Senator Penn read for the
bill of rights that held that the con-
venionces of the legislature is subor-
dinated to the right of petition. Sena.
tor Luther said he. was not convinced
that the legislature had a constitution-
al right to set up a limit against the
admission of petitions. Senator Searis
said he had no personal interest in the
matter. and so withdrew his motion
to concur with the house. Senator
Luther thanked Mr. Searls. and mor-
ed the appointment of a committee
of conference. Senator Luther was
so named.

the misfortune of John Hyde, the, popli-

he tried to make the crosswalk that
leads into the rehr of a store ill Wall

PUBLIC UTILITIES BILLS
Discussed Again This Morning by
various Legislators in Hartford.
HARTFORD. April 29.—~Thc Public
Utilities bill, which was left ill the air
yesterday by iuljolulllumlt and which
at that time had shown strength
enough so that those opposed to it
feared that its friends would be able to
put it vote tilitlllgll to overtuln the
committee's It polt against it. was tak-
en up again this luorulng in the House
and was discussed by the different
legislators. The strength of the
friends of the bill seemed to have
been augmented over night. and there
were lnuny speakers In favor of it.
Representative Bush. of Orange. was
the first speaker lll opposition. He said
that he did not believe there was any
necessity in the state for such a bill.
He said that the corporations served
the. public fairy-l well. He did not be-
lieve that new enterprlsm ought to be
hampered. lie thought that franchises
had been given to people who had
been begged to accept them ill some
cases to further the enterprises which
the public desired. lie thought that
most peeplc do not favor the present
bill.
Representative Pnyuc, of Griswold.
took the ground that tile legislators
are not sufficiently conversant. with
matters pertaining to public service
corporations to mpc with the sltlla-
tlon and thought that the corporations
needed watching. Ilt‘ told of a bank
official not far from Hartford who had
not been sufficiently watched and had
tier-amped with tile funds of a large
denomination. lie said that. the peo-
ple wanted Iil(‘ll u commission and
that the state is not beyond the need
of one.
Representative Leetc. of Ellflcld.
said he was glad that there was at
least one conscientious man in tile
House. He alluded to Mr. Payne. He
said further that “W bill is not fath-
ered either by Republicans or Dt‘illilv
crate. and that the bill today has no
father as far as he could see. lic
warned the legislators that they should
not vote away the rights which have
been given them by their fathers and
which should be handed down to the
children.

GUILT AND SHAME.
("Vicar of Vi‘akeileld.")
"(lullt and Shame. says the allegory.
ware at first companions, and in the
beginning of their journeys. insep-
arably kept together. But their union
was soon found to be disagreeable
and inconvenient to both. Guilt gave
Shame frequent uneasiness and Shame
often betrayed the secret conspiracies
of Guilt. After long disapeemeni.
therefore they at length consented to
rt forever. Guilt boldly walked
orward alone to overtake Fate, that
went before in the shape of all are
ecutioner; but. Shame. being naturally
timoroua, returned back to keep com-
‘pany with Virtue; which in the begin-
ning of their journey they had left
behind. Thus. my children, after men
have traveled through a few stages in
ttvice, Shame forsaken them. and re-
turns llack to wait upon the few vir-
tues they have still refllallling."
