all of Its penal and charitable ipsti-
tutions. Additional buildings Will
be required on the insane asylum
and reform school farms, and the
peniientiary and blind school build
ings must be enlarged. The direct
ors OF the deaf mute school propose
to turn Its property and manage
ment over to the control of the state,
which is proper, as all institutions
supported by the state should be
controlled by the state. One OF the
most important questions before the
assembly will be in regard to the fu-
ture employment of convict labor.
The contract heretofore existing for
the employment of convicts has now
expired. Hereafter the state should
work its own convicts, so as to inter-
fere In the least with free labor, and
- that end there is probably no bet
ter way than to follow the example
of California and Washington in the
erection of a jute' mandatory. AS
the establishment of such a manu-
factory would occupy nearly two
years, 1t will be necessary to furnish
employ ment IN the meantime to the
convicts.
THE PORT AGE ROAD.
The last legislature authorized the
, construction of state portage rail-
road at the Cascades Of the Co
lumbia, appropriated sixty thous
and dollars therefor, and empowered
the governor, secretary of state, ant
state treasurer, as board, to built
and operate such road. The roat
was constructed within the appro
priation, and, although operated un
der some disadvantages, its opera
I ton has resulted in an excess Q

pose of the board to adjust the rate

cost, will be paid by the business

on Friday morning On Thursday she was found
I'm an unconscious condition. on the same morn
ing a package containing checks Of Wayne Parker,
a Newark lawyer who had charge Of her affairs,
was found a mile from her house, leading 10 the
presumption Of robbery. On Saturday night County
Physician Elliott. of Newark. received note from
Wavne Parker requesting that an investigation
he made in the case. that the coroncrs inquest
mich, be held before burpl. To-day the county
rbvsician went to Irvington and saw Or Ward
who had attended the woman. Dr. Ward said that
the woman had been found by ncighbors lying In
cbeesebox She recovered sufficiently to say that
she had been assaulted and robbed but as she was
delirous no account taken Of her words, DR.
Ward gave a certificate of death from apoplcxy.
The county physician made an autops! ana found
that the womans wrist was broken ana that there
were contusions the right leg and marks on
the body The injuries not sufficient to cause
death which probably resulted from shock The
body was permitted to be buried, ana the county
musician laid the facts before Prosecutor Crane
and requested Mr.. Parker to submit the facts in
his possession.
