NO GOOD REAsON FOR GOVERNOR nILLs RECUM-

NO GOOD REASON FOR GOVERNOR HILLS RECON-
MENDATiON.
ALBANY, Jan. 5 Especial. The chief point
made by Governor Hill In his Message regarding the
abolition Of the Board OF Regents to be that
would be saved. That regarded strange complaint
TO make against the Board the regents not paid
any salaries and In fact do their work grauousy The
Board moreover, is O non-partisan one. Some
one would have to do their work.
that OF supervising the Incorporation OF
colleges and academies caring for the State Library and
the State Museum OF Natural History, regulating the
examinations in the public schools of the State inspect
ing the state schools and dividing the school The
board has always managed its affairs economically With
small force OF who. although paid small
salaries worked faithfully. They men like Wool
worth and Pratt. never stinted themselves in
their work. The only effect Of abolishng the board
would be to transfer the work to for the work
OF the board would have to be done That would
cost money. 1t would lead TO an increase Of
the number OF clerks in the department and
It would also become political department. In no way
would the change be Improvement in the public SER
vice. The people are sagisied with the work Of The
Regents. there has been complaint aud there is no
reason why thero should be change which would in
y0lve the State IN more expense.
