IMMIGRATION.
The people of this State-though conscious
Of its great natural advantages over other
ness and abundance of its mines and mineral
products, its fertile prairie lands, interspersed
with timber of an excellent quality, its tim
Der, suitable not only for building but for
manufacturing purposes, and its rivers and
ly to make known these great advantages to
the people OF our sister States, or to the peo-
pie OF foreign lands. The last Legislature
provided for the establishment of a Board of
Immigration, but the amount of money placed
at Its disposal was so inadequate to the cx-
pectations formed that the people themselves
were forced to take hold of the onestion with
vlgor, and they stepped to the front to supply
the means necessary to accomplish the OBJ
lectS desired. But in the meanwhile the state
Board OF immigration had prepared and pub
hsned a small pamphlet, giving description
OF the state by counties, and an excellent
the state Board of immigration induced in
CURRY by the people of other States and of for
eign lands, intending TO seek a new home,
concerning the advantages which this State
possessed. In another portion of this paper
have shown that since September, 1876, TO
June 1850, calling the period or time four years,
the population of this State naturally IN
creased, and the increase by immigration was
about 60O10 persons per ear The efforts of
the Board of immigration were ably supple
mented by the voluntary association formed
by the people of this State. Enterprising and
wealthy gentlemen of st. Louis furnished tue
money required tor the grand work. a Con-
vcntIon of the able and energetic men of the
State was held in st. Louis i'll April, 1880. The
action OF this Convention did not aid to in
crease tue population of this state embraced
In the Federal census. but its influence is now
felt, and has been felt since last autumn, and
will continue to be felt for long time. That
assoc atiu n has published q map and a hand

description OF the advan' ages each county in
the State possesses, and with the additional

WITH AUDITOR AND TREASURER.
A.committee was appointed by me. in 1873.
in the manner required by law, to make set
element with the Auditor and Treasurer, and
report the result of their examinations TO the
Legislature for action. The committee per-
formed its duty. Their report was made 70
the Legislature, but the Legislature failed to
approve il, either in whole or in part, and ut
torly failed to take definite action upon IL.
Therefore no settlement has been made with
the Auditor and Treasurer for the two years
ending on the 31st of December, 1878. The
committee appointed by pe I'm December last
to make settlement with the Auditor and
Treasurer can have NO authority from me to
make settlement for the years lsT-7s. The
