OFFICIAL PROMPTNESS.

During 1 the early part of the regular session of the legislature the Governor sent a communication to the lower house in reply to a resolution, from which communication the following is "an extract: "In regard to the second request of the resolution, I will furnish the House with copies of official correspondence between the government and its special Agent, Mr. Alfred S. Hartwell, during the transition period, as soon as they are prepared." Inasmuch as the House had never -received the soon-as-they-are-prepared copies of the official correspondence referred to, notwithstanding- the 97 days in which the Legislature had been in session since the receipt of said communication, it can be easily imagined that the "official correspondence between the government and its special agent" was not a light one, and the filing of copies of which alone will justify the calling of another extra session, to say nothing of the necessary measures for government relief.
