my hearty approval In advsncc
have the honor, therefore, gentlemen, 20
present briefly for your consideration . few
suggestions Of b appeared 70 me TO be es-
sential 70 the welfare and eontentment Of
the people OF this State.
EC0SONY N PUBLIC AFFAIRS.
Tn public business should DO conducted
on the same business principles thar char.
acterixe the prudent man in the management
Of his own private afiairA Unnecessary ex.
pense should not de indulged. The public
service should not be q nest for useless ap-
pOintees. As disbursers Of the public funds
your duty and your Official trust should be
considered too sacred 70 be thus prostituted
and abused. No Official. high or low, shoul
bo generous at the expense Of the people.
The administration Of every State institu-
tion should DO conducted with strict fidelity
20 its object and purpose, and O. . basis
OF exact economy. and In every instance,
II such should be found. all supernumeraries
hould be promptly dismissed. In the man
agement Of that branch of the public affairs
oon1ded to my charge. all those clothed With
power by me shall be held 70 the line Of i'm.
partial duty, their ntness be made para.
and full and complete service be ex.
acted and required. AZ trustees Of an Il.
pressed trust let Us get together on all mat.
tiers OF state, to the end that our people may
be made prosperous and the COmMOnW ealth
exalted 70 . proud position In the history Of
the land. From the length and breadth of
the State comes the cry Of oppressive Z
ton. Living 10 high and the markets arc
low. while back in the stricken sections We
hear the plant Of suffering and distress. IL
r. our duty to lessen these hardships and
soften these pains. Every dollar paid out to
. useless employe Is . theft from the pockets
Of the poor.
AVIS
Two and three per cent per m0nsA. Q too
often exacted In this State from the lOWIy
and the poor. Our present interest Law flxes
Z per cent. per annuma % the legal rate, but
permits 10 per cent. per annum by special
contract. II moro than the latter amount 10
reserved or contracted for the penalty II .
forfeiture Of all Interest. and tho lender can
only recOver the amount actually loaned
! suggest the enactment Of . law with severe
penalties, ample to reach and destroy that
class of extOrtiOn and punish those who
practice Il.
PUBLIC sCHOOLs.
Our State Is to be congratulated On the e.
0ciency OF its public teachers and the high
educational standard to which our youth
has attained. In public education, as In
every line Of progress the State has made =
proud record. In the past twenty years our
school districts have increased from -: to
6.2S3. State interference or State supervision
over private. parOchial or UNCONVENTIONAL
schools ought not TO be encouraged.
Any action taken by you for the advance
ment OF public education and the dissemina-
ton Of knowledge will receive my most cor.
dial Endorsement. Much complaint has
been heard regarding the excessive prices
In our public schools. We need such
legislation rs will furnish books 10 our
schools. II not free. Mt least at the publish.
er's Wholesale price.
sUAPTUARY LAWS
Tho people Of this State have recently do.
themselves ON that class OF leglsla.
zion known ~ sumptuary laws. The Qucs-
ti0n Of the manufacture and sale OF liquor, |
after full investigation, broad discussion
and o contemplation was duly presented
10 the people at largo. Thu result IL known. !
What Was then . matter Of vital import to |
States onward march to prosperity and
renown would seem to be wrapped In that
sleep Of death which hath neither resurrec- |
ton o remOrse. So pronounced o speech
BY the people shoul not by you be ignored.
line Of duty would seem to b to accept |
the peoples declaration and lay all thoughts
Of such enactments aside.

In this Legislature all favor revision
