Governor Kirkwood's Message

The message Of Gov. Kirkwood +,
which we lay before our readers this
week, will amply repay careful pc
rusal. 1t represents our State as in
good, healthy condition notwithstand-
ing the intestine war in which our ma
ton is engaged. Many valuable rec
concentrations are made to the Gener-
al Assembly, in reference to important
points where Legislation is needed.
The message as published by us is
not complete, as We were obliged to
abridge it somewhat. The portions
omitted refer chiefly to the Penitentia.
ry, Charitable Institutions and the Des
Moines River Grant.
