The Governor suggests a thorough scientific investl-
cation the character of the disease; thinks that the
transit of cattle through the several towns may require
additional regulation; and leaves to the wisdom OF
the Legislature the subject of enlargng the number
of the Board of Commissioners and OF increasing their
authority. -
He thinks that general regulations Of the character
suggested by him will prove beneficial, II they 90 not
entirely suppress the of the dstemper; THINKS
that provision requiring the towns TO bear portion
of the expense will restrain them from unnecessary
expenditires and in conclusion states that he shsli
concur in all proper for the relief and pro-
lection of the public interests.
