Debate Over Boston and Albany Stock Increase in General Court
In the General Court a vigorous debate accompanied the bill to raise Boston and Albany stock from 20 to 80 million dollars with 6 million for bonds and 4 million for road improvements. Supporters, led by Mr. Allen, argued for the public benefit and historic state backing, while opponents warned of stock watering and taxpayer risk. The measure passed to a third reading amid lively exchanges and procedural motions.

Newspaper libel suits spark call for stronger protections
The Republican cites three libel cases over 12 to 14 years with damages of 100 31 and 1500 arguing newspapers face undue risk and should have parity with others. He says current law treats papers as criminals from the start and seeks protection from extortion without shielding sensational outlets. Several others share the view.
