Concerning this bill the Governor saws:
Il am advised by every mem Der of the Har-
hor Commission that the work contem-
plated by this act is entirely inexpedient
and unnecessary at this time; tha: there is at
present at The disposal OF the Harbor Com
mssi0ner5 sufficient space for all the wharf
age and dockage that will likely be required
for several years to come. and that the i'm
proyements contemplated and necessary in
other directions will require all the funds
at the disposal Of the commission. The law
by which the HarDor Commissioners are
now governed clothes them with the power
to perform this work, if necessary, and
specific direction by legislative bodies, which
in many instances is desired for the accom-
plishment of personal ends is a dangerous
precedent to establish"
No. 193-An act 10 enfranchlse the women
citizens OF this State, prescribing their quailfica-
tons as electors.
Concerning this bill the Governor saws:
This bill is so unfortunately drawn as not
to effect the object sought to be attained.
that OF allowing women to vote.at elec-
lions held solely for the election of school
tmcers. Under its terms, even if it could
oe held TO be effective for any purpose.
"hlch IS doubtful, there would be'no way
OF aHorhlng women an opportunity to vote
lor school Officers without giving them the
rlRDt and opportunity to vote for all other
ofncers to be voted for at the same election
as under the Australian ballot system, they
must be furnished with ticket, which in
every instance would be for all officers to
De elected; and they would be permitted to
use The booths, wherein they would be un-
