The last General Assembly enacted a
law for the purpose of preventing the in
PRODUCTION and spread of cholera and o.h-
er contagious and infectious diseases with
in the State, and placing at my disposal a
fund-commonly known as the epidemic
fund'-not exceeding $4,000 in any one
year. This was prompted by the dread of
"A possible invasion OF cholera. Fortunate
~. we were spared this evil.
But on Aug. ~. 1885. smallpox appeared
in the city of Muncie, and soon assumed
the form of a violent epidemic. This not
only occasioned great distress to the c.ti-
zens of Muncie. but created widespread
fear throughout the surrounding country
and adjacent cities. A heavy expense was
entailed upon the city of Muncie to quar-
antine infected districts within its limits,
but II soon became evident that the pub

these, in many respects the most brilliant

several States. No prouder record has been
or could be made than by Indiana's soldiers
on these fields.
Recognizing the importance of such a
commission in preserving the history of our
troops, I appointed commissioners to rep
resent Indiana. The commission organized
by electing Gen. Morton g. Hunter chair

The report OF the Institute for the Deaf
and Dumb shows that there was an actual
attendance of 2S6 pupils Nov. /, 1894. The
health of the pupils had been good until
the past few weeks, measles appearing in
epidemic form. Fortunately, it has not been
of a violent type and there have been no
fatal results.
There has been a large falling off in the
numbe of pupils enrolled. The superin-
tendent expresses the opinion tina it is to
be largely attributed to the foolish whims
of the child or to the neglect or cupidity
of the parent" This leads him to the rec

Insurance. on Public Buildings-Fees
and SaIaries-Fish Culture.
l am constrained to commend to you the
policy of insurance upon the buildings of
our public institutions. Considering the in
surance that Purdue University had upon
her splendid hall, destroyed by fire, the de-
struction of the laundry at the Central
Hospital for the Insane, and the serious
loss by fire occurring a short time ago in
the Woman's Prison and Girls Reforma-
tory, upon all of which there was insur-
ance, limited, it is true. yet affording means
Immediately to begin the repairs of damage
sustained, seems to me to commend the
policy.
The insurance should be held by the
trustees of these institutions, to one-half
their value, so that a fund could be had
to begin work, without being compelled to
await the assembling of the Legislature to
appropriate the money required. Some few
of the institutions carry a small insurance,
others none at all, because no provision
has been made by law for this purpose.
In response to a needed and demanded
reform, the General Assembly of 1891 en-
acted a law regulating the fees and sal
aries of State and county officers. Through
a clerical blunder. whether Intentional or
otherwise, the purposes of this law are IL
able TO be defeated. The recent decision OF
the Supreme Court of the State relative to
this law places it in the condition which
calls for your earnest consideration. That
the public demand this law 70 be perfected
SO that it may stand the test of the courts,
there can be no doubt. 1t, therefore, be-
comes your duty to remedy the Weaknesses
or INEQUALITIES of this law at the earliest
mcrenI.
While ii is right and proper that no
greater amount should be taken from the
people in the way of fees and salaries
than is necessary, yet the public will be
found to be just and willing to allow COM
pensation, but no more. which will give
efficient and reliable service. This law
should be just to both the official and the
public. and should not be delayed in the
zine of its taking effect.

MONUMENT COMMISSIONERS MEET
VIII Appoint Democratic Employees
After Legislature AdjOurns.

The monument commissioners yesterday
completed a part of their work ana al
journed. The publication of the fact that
the Democratic members had agreed IN
caucus that the custodian must, as a first
qualification, be a Democrat, caused them
to take fright lest in their haste, and dur
ing the session OF a Republican Legisla-
ture, some action might be taken looking
to a reorganization of the commission.
Hence when President Langsdale brought
up the subject of the appointment of a
custodian and al engineer, two offices
which are in urgent need of competent in
eumbents. Mr.. English. who dictates af-
fairs, said that he had no motion to make,
and the other two members present said
they had none These appointments VIII

FOR THE SOLDIERS.
Suggestions as to the Proposes Home
and ChickaHNauga Battlefield.

1t is well understood that a measure will
be presented to you for the establishment
of a Soldiers Home near the city OF La
fayette, the public-spirited citizens of that
enterprising city having secured and do
mated a tract of land for that. purpose. L
have not been fully informed as To the pro-
visions contained in the bill to be presented
to you. and it may not as yet have been
perfected.
The motive inspiring it is most laudable,
if it is to provide homes in their old age for
the wives of old soldiers, as well as the
veterans. They are deserving of a kind
lier consideration than has usually been
allotted to them by the general public.
While the husband in his march to the
front may have incurred the imminent dam
ger CT losing his life. yet with him was
the excitement to march, camp and battle
to sustain, while to the wife. just as true
to her country in a loyal devotion, there
was the constant daily sacrifice. the pa
tient suffering, and the agonizing suspense
in the quiet of home. The husbands and
the sons patriotism. devotion and sacrifice
we're not greater than that of the wife and
the mother. and equally deserves a ma
tons gratitude.
In the p~oorhouses of the State there are
now $50 men who were old enough 10 have
ttCI cOAOtCAS Ia liS q i l. NOuld DG sale
to estimate that probably $50 of these were
soldiers. How many of these may have
wives i am unable to form an estimate.
Should you decide to appropriate a sum
for this purpose, you should know within a
reasonable certainty the number to provide
for. In using the peoples money you may
afford to be generous, yet never reckless,
wa steful nor extravaganza. To enter upon
this work. or any other similar work, 9TH
erwise than in a systematic business way,
with a thorough knowledge of the needs
required. would be unjust to the people,
and especially so to those who are sought
TO be benefited.
To arouse the belief that the public
money had been squandered without care
or consideration would be to ciothe the
undertaking in disfavor and prejudice.
However faudable or ~praiseworthy the
measure In itself may be. YOU should pro-
coed with caution The people are easily
satisfied II they believe they have value
received for their money expended.
