| MESSAGE FROM THE GOVERNOR.
The following message was received and
accepted:
SrArR OF LOUISIANA, =
| Executive Department.. !
New Orleans, February IL, 1878.
To the Honorable Speaker and Members Of the
| House Of Representatives;
An act originating in the House OF Rep
! resen tatives, entitled an act to incorporate
the Friendly Bro TIERS Benevolent Associa-
| ton of the town of Delta, State of Louis
| lana, has this day become law without my
| approval. The bill in question presents no
| Objectionable features calling for executive
| veto. and at the same time contains no pro-
visions of a legislative character which are
either necessary or beneficial TO the State
! at large. 1t is simply what it purports to
be, an act of incorporation of benevolent
association. AS this is the first measure Of
the kind that has been presented to me
| during this the first session of the present
| General Assembly, l deem it proper
| to call your attention to the fact
that during the last session of your
| predecessors, more than one-tifth Of the
| acts passed, and now appearing on the
statute books OF the State, were acts in
| cooperating benevolent and other similar
societies, which could just as we'll have
been passed before notary public. The
injustice Of thus making the State pay for
the PRONUNCIATION OF the charters of private
associations is apparent, and the attendant
expense forms q very large item IN the
appropriation for printing purposes. /
commend this subject to your cOnsidera-
ton, and suggest that should the general
incorporation law of the State be found
inadequate to provide for the Incorporation
Of private benevolent associations, the law
should be amended so as to prevent the
statute books from being numbered with
private legislation. and the State from
being saddled with the costs thereby en-
tailed.
WILLIAM Z. KELLOGG,
Governor.
