office told him Of mis- intention to appoint him.
The Governor told him that he must conduct
the Department Of Public Works on practical
lines not having any trouble that could be
avoided but nevertheless. making the interests
of the State the leading factor in all decisions.
The work Of the Department must be executed
with economy. No man should be appointed to
an Office and no man should be retained In
Office unless there was need OF his services.
The Governor thus practically gave directions
10 Colonel Partridge TO cut down remorselessly
the inflated payrolls Of the Department OF Pub
lie Works. Colonel Partridge will have hard
task but coming from Brooklyn as ne does. he
probably has not many friends along the line OF

Partridge thus can save a large sum OF money
