VI II Ion Introduced Into Senate and As sembly Oldertlug to the Manner In Whlrh tlis Leglslntlnn Is I'roMswU anil Urinsnillng a Public Hrarluf llefore the Caiml Coiiiinlltre, ALBANY, April 1). A protest against the proposed expenditure of 'J(i.(HKI,('ii for en mi I improvement work was siibiuit tcd lust night to the senate nnd assembly. It wus signed by Elliot II. Noma, mus ter of the New York Slate tirting)', Put rous of lliiKbiirdry; James Ward, pres ident of the New York State Farmers' congress, and John I. I'lntt, secretary of the New York State Tax and Trans portation Iteform association. The protest is as follows "The undersigned, representing import ant orgnuitiiti mi of the farmers and tax payers of tile stnte, respectfully remon strate agniust the passage of the pro posed bill for the expenditure of I'.'li. Ism.iMIO in the enlargement of the canals, H it limit first affording an adequate and proper hearing to those who ladieve that sm li action will be unwise mid detrluien tkl to the inlcnsts of the state olid es pecially to its iigiiciiltural interests. "We respect fully represent that dur ing the Inst three .veins the ailvisntcs of canal enlargement have practically used the olllelnl power of the slate to create public sentiment in favor of the expendi ture. The commission appointed by tiov- ernnr Roosevelt, after expending several thousand dollars, taken from the treas ury, brought in a report consisting ex clusively of arguments upon that slile, which we regret to be compelled to my were based upim statements and figures which a direful examination shows to be absolutely false. The tables curtained in that report are so erroneous that they are entirely unre liable, and the conclusion based upon them la misleading and mil rue. The last legislature appropriated $'J"M00 for a continuance of the same process. The advocates of en mil enlargement have had the cur of the state government, and their expenses have been paid out of the state treasury. On the other hand there is a very large and respectable body of citizens who believe that further money spent upon the canals will be utterly wasted, and who have had no hearing at all. We claim that these parties, which wc in part reprcscut, are entitled to be heard. "We further call your attention to the unjust, and, .is we believe, illegal manner In which this hill has been brought liefure your honorable body. The act of lust year authorizing further surveys di rected th? state engineer to report the result of his action to the governor Itcfore Jan. 1. The governor was directed to transmit the same to the legislature on or before Jan. IS. The purpose of these conditions was evidently to afford all parties full knowhslge of the conclusions reached ami opportunity for full and lair discussion of the propositions based upon them. Instead of obeying this mandate the Hunt rep.trt of the fciate engineer was nut iiindc until Feb. '! nisi wns tint transmitted till March IS. The bill itself was iutroiliicoil on Thursday last. It Is printed and on tile for the first time to day. Method uf Introtlnrllnn mn Outrage. "We respectfully submit that this Is ni.prcccdciitcd in the history uf legisla tion: that a subject more important and carrying a larger sum of money than any other that has ever been submitted to the legislature should he thus introduced III the last days of the session is In it flit an outrage, and to force it to a vote now without fuir nnd ample discussion will be an net of such injustice that we here by enter our most earnest and emphatic protest against It. "Wc, therefore, respectfully ask the honorable, the m mite, to make such or der as shall refer this hill to a committee with directions to grant a sutllcient hear ing to all parties Interested in and af fected by it. And we respectfully ask the honorable, the assembly, to take such notice of the conditions hereinbefore named as will assure to us an ample and unrestricted hearing before the commit tee to which it has already been re ferred." The petition was presented to the sen ate by Senator Ambler. Senator Pavls objected to the reading, but upon advice of Lender Ellsworth withdrew his ob jection.
