ANNUAL MESSAGE
OF THE
GOVERNOR OF PENNSYLVANIA.
Gentlemen Of the Senate and House
of hepreseatatipes:

Gentlemen Of The Senate and House
of Representatives:
As the 6rst Legislature holding
biennial session, you will have many
difficult and delicate matters to adjust.
As oil the existing legislation has
been passed in view of annual ses.
sions, ii will be necessary to make q
careful examipstior Of the various
laws regulating the Departments,
and particularly thoss concerning the
management of financial affairs.
Without attempting specification OF
all the changes rendered necessary BY
the new system. it will be sufficient,
as 40 indication of the importance Of
the work, to point out, that upiess an
amendmeat Of the law requiring the
votes Tor State Treasurer 10 be count
ed as the votes for Governor are nov
counted. Is passed, an extra session
Of the Legislature must be called in
1880 for that purpose alone, ct q yesy
considerable expense Many reports
that are uOw annually required can
probably be dispensed With, and
many changes made which will less
en- the expense aud simplify the oper-
arious Of the Departments. The new
Constitution has hitherto, 10 iss tran
sition state, added largely to the ex.
pensss of government, bu. the period
has nov arrived when the people
should begin to profit by the reduced
cost OF lis regular operation. l do

done with conscientious fidelity, aud
your constituents realize, for The next

During the year, the peace Of the

ing the line between business enter
prises and 6ducisry relations. Last
year, in connection herewith, / took
occasion to recommend the creation
OF bank department, and the ap-
pointment Of bank examiner A
bill to that effect was introduced at
the last session, and passed the Sen-
ate, but failed in the House. | am
still convinced Of the advisability of
such department. The total num-
Der Of banks reporting to the Auditor
General, in 1878, was one hundred
and seventeen, with $23. 400, ,000, 600
on deposit OF these, seventy-seven
are represented as savings banks and
trust companies, with sl6.T90.00o of
deposits. Since that year, the Off
cial records show the failure or sus-
pension of thirty-o -one institutions.
whose deposits aggregated $500,
600. Eighteen OF these suspended
banks were so-called savings banks,
with deposits amounting to $3.50
000 II is significant fact, that
about 6S per centrm. or s4,500.0 900
of tie deposits Of the eighteen broken
savings banks, was invested in dis
counts upon ordinary business paper.
These figures will convince you, |
think, of the importance Of drawing
the line between the two classes of
institutions, and creating an officer to
enforce the law, and close up all fail
ing institutions, before the ruinous
consequences of eoncealment Of insol-
vency and desperate efforts to re-
,rieve losses have involved depositors
10 an almost total extinction of secur-
ities.
