opmentrof our state, In every direction. !,
Thf reports Of tho various state seduca
fionai institutions are especially gratifying

NO scandal or rcproach has attached to any
\ one of these various institutions during the
administration of their present management
and from the reports submitted 1t will be
seen, that most excellent showing In
made by each, considering the very limited
means which the last assembly was able
to place at their disposal
l shall content myself with few brief
suggestions upon these institutions as their
progress, their needs and their requirements
/ fillly set forth In the accompanying reports,
