Important Suggestion.
RICHMOND, January %.

RICHMOND, January 70.
To the Editor Of the State Journal:
Knowing the valuable aid your paper
is rendering the state in everything
and anything that looks to development
and improvement, we want through you
to call the attention of the legislature to the
creation of a little Office OF great impor-
lance, now too long neglected. We mean
the appointment of state assayer Of ores
and metals.
The statute of 1S45 of Massachusetts
provides that "the governor, with the advice
and consent of the council, may appoint one
or more suitable persons to be assayers of
ores and metals, who shall be sworn to the
faithful discharge of their duties, and it
shall become the duty of such assayers to
assay such ores or metals as may be offered
to him for assay, and to give certificate
thereof; for which service he shall be paid a
reasonable compensation by the person pro-
curing such assay to be made"
S. Dana Hays is now filling that position
in Massachusetts,, and informed the writer
of this that of late years other duties have
been assigned to the office, and the position
has become an honorary one. As state
assayer and chemist, the position, well
conducted, becomes one of considerable inn
portance. There should be but one assayer
appointed, and he should reside in Rich
mond. There is at least one gentleman in
the city well qualified to fill this position.
The great interest the state has in this SUBJ
ject is because of our great mineral inter-
ests, in the sale and development of which
owners and agents would be vastly aided
by the certificate of the purity of the
ores, strengthened by the official charac-
ter Of the chemist.
At this moment the iron interests Of
Pittsburg and the northwest is looking to
Virginia for ores, and assays have to be
procured in some other state.
Whether the state should incur the ex'
pense of procuring apparatus or not, is a
matter for the legislature to decide. Let
the office be created and the governor EN-
powered to make the appointment, subjec
to the approval Of the Senate. The rate o
charges can be made to correspond witt
those of Maryland, Pennsylvania and Mas
sachusetts. We can think of no objection
to the creation of this office, but urgen
reasons for it. e.
