Lobby Objections Highlight Ex Governors as Legislative Speakers
The Joint Committee on Rules held a hearing in Senate President Sprague’s room on Governor address provisions about the lobby. F B Sanborn criticized the lobby’s practice of employing ex Governors as counsel and proposed a five year ban after leaving office. He urged appointing experienced counsel, not ex-office holders, and warned the Attorney General’s office has become a roosting place for young lawyers. The session called for fuller hearings and separation of legislative and committee work to curb abuses.

Others, including Rev Solomon Schindler, asserted examination standards and institutional ties matter less than experience and reputation. A Boston contingent also opposed the petition. A separate hearing addressed brewer bottling practices, pitting bottlers against brewers over duties and competition in malt liquor sales.
