To the House Of Representatives:
GENTLEMEN | return without my signature
I'll. B. No. 59l. an Act To be entitled an Act
70 repeal an Act entitled an Act 10 prevent
the sale of vinous and spiritnous liquors in
the town of McNutt, Leflore county, in
this State. within two miles OF the cor
porare limits of said town approved April
g. 1873.
| cannot conscientiously approve this bill
which has for It's object the removal Of re-
straints on the sale of intoxicating liquors.
The policy of the State mas beer and is t.
impose al possible restraints thereon. This
| deem Il wise and benefcient course. In
fact, this Legislature has already passed
number of bills imposing upon other towns
the same restriction which, having previous
ly been made, they now seek to remove. |
know no reason why the town of McNutt, of
L+hore county, should be made au exception
to the general rule,
return without my signature II. B. No.
59S, an Act TO incorporate the Trustees of
the Hiilsboro Institute, in the condty OF
Scott.
The bill constitutes John Parks, f. NJ
Manning and X. D. Chandler, and their sue
cesSors a body corporate and polite bv The
name and style of the Trustees of the Hills
bOro Institute, with the usual powers, TO
receive by gilt, donation, bequest or pur-
chase any real or personal property without
limit. ana to hold, posse s. and enjoy the
same, and may sell and dispose of the same,
may make bv-laws 70" the govern
ment and control ct said institution. but
totally fails to define the nature or the Oh
ject of the Institution, nor does il define the
business to be transacted hy the Trustees
or the purposes of the corporation. The
word institution has very broad and COM
prehensive meaning in its application To
the various institutions of the country. The
Vagueness and uncertainty OF the bill in
duces me to withhold my approval.
