Legislature committees named and public works plan voiced
The Legislature announced committees led by Speaker Noyes and President Boardman. Debates focus on railroad representation, with four Republicans and two Democrats on the panel, while bids for chairs face opposition. Public works for Boston and a death notice for Representative Bartlett are noted. The board urges monthly water quality checks and a $30,000 budget for continued testing, to probe pollutants and health risks in drinking water.
