full attention their forthcoming report, and urge
your action on their request for financial sup

the Importance of the undertaking ana the great
public interest therein In anticipation of their
report i am able to state that the $4,000 ap-
propriated last year for the purpose OF defray-
ing the expenses of the Commissioners and per-
fectinS surveys and maps has been used en-
tirely as the nucleus Of a fund for acquiring
and closing down the most destructive of the
quarries- Blasting at these quarries stopped

scriptiOns amounting TO upward OF Sl20,O0o 20

NATIONAL GUARD AND NAVAL MILITIA

I am pleased TO report that the National
Guard is in a condition entirely satisfactory. and
under tne existing regulatlons governing II mas
reached such degree of efficiency that it may
be safely relied upon to perform every duty
that may fall TO it. Every man owes his cOun-
try a duty and IL ought to be both from a pa
triotic and physical standpoint the aim OF every
citizen to serve his State for the term which is
usually given by those who enter the National
Guard. The National Guard was not intended
a military reserve of the General Govern
ment. and IL cannot in any way be so regarded
of men who through social or business relations
are usually known 20 another. They are
willing TO give their services to the state IL
such a call IS made upon them The Guard
should never be expected TO do anything else
than originally intended. that is, To sup
press local troubles and repel foreign INVASION
and strengthen the Federal arm only until n
sufficient force can be recruited and be put into
the field To replace them. but the Guard should
never be broken UP. This was the theory under
which il called into service during the War
Of the Rebellion. and it should still be our aim
so TO regard it. The instruction which they are
now receiving at the state Camp. giving as il
does TO every man a practical insight into the
charge. teaching him the necessity Of looking
after himself. are calculated TO raise the stan
dard of efficiency The display of this force at
times. even though no actual outbreak occurs
has a tendency TO curb lawleSSneSs and bring
respect for the law This was notably the case
in the CrOtOn Dam strikes last year, where the
mere assembling Of the troops was sufficient To
prevent what might have been serious out
break. / trust that the time may be far dis
tant when tine services Of the National Guard
may be necessary in our State Mediation and
arbitration il seems to me. should be aim
rather than the exhibition of armed fOrcs. Vet
we must always recollect that there may be
occasions when every other remedy may fail,
and a last resort we may be compelled To
rely upon the National Guard for the preserva-
tiOn Of life and property. The force now con-
sists of. about fourteen thousand
a faithful adjunct and auxiliary OF the Ma
tiOnol Guard is the Naval Militia The Naval
Militia is as important in its way as are the
infantry and other arms OF the state Thelr
services may at any time become necessary.
and they form the nucleus for building up such
naval force as may be needed for the pro-
lection OF our harbOrs. The total amount ap-
propriated for the National Guard and Naval
Militia last y.ar was S5J3, go a. This is eX-
elusive of appropriations made for buildings

the State government, TO recommend economy

AGRICULTURAL.

The appropriation by the State last year OF n
sufficient to discharge the obligations OF
the State Fair. bringing it under the control Or
a commission appointed by the State, has
proved wise, and the encouragement thus given
has resulted in the most successful fair that
has been known in recent years Sufficient ap-
preparation should be made TO continue this
work a State institution during the coming
year. The various laws passed empowering the
Con missioner of Agriculture to protect con-
sumers from adulterated food products have
been thoroughly enforced. and the results in
the main have been satisfactory. You are
ferred TO the report of the Commissioner OF
Agriculture for detailed statement Of the work
of this Department.
The sugar beet industry Of the State should
still be encouraged and the bounty continued.
IL is anticipated that this year about 5000. .OOD
pounds OF beet sugar will ne produced in
State.
Farmers Institutes have been conducted sue
cessfully and of great benefit TO the farming
localities. The work of the stamping out Of
tuberculosis and glanders among the cattle
should, In my OpiniOn. be transferred to this
department. because it comes properly within
the scope OF its duties and because il bs
done with less expense

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH.

I also desire to call your attention to the State
Board of Health, which consists of three Come
missioners appointed by the Governor and GER
tain OfficiO members. The duties such
that one competent man giving him time thereto
might easily perform them, provided that the
supervision OF tuberculosis and glanders in cat
tie were transferred to the Department of Agri-
culture, where it properly belongs. and the
necessity for a large Office force at expense
according TO the appropriation Of last year. of
$4,000 could be largely reduced. This is also
suggested, with recommendation for affirm
atiye action by the Legislature.

PRISONS COMMISSION.

Article VIII of the Constitution provides for a
Commission of Prisons and Chapter 1,020 of the
Laws of 1899 provided that the Governor should
appoint eight commissioners. who receive $40 a
day and expenses while in the performance of
their duties. This Commission also maintains
office and Office force, and received appro-
priation last year therefor amounting TO $4,000
While it is true that this Board has effected
great saving TO the State, and better sanitary
condition in the various subdivisions, yet its
work has reached such a satisfactory state that
I'm my judgment the duties of this Commission
should be conferred upon single commissioner
10 be selected by the Governor. by and with the
consent of the Senate, who, together with such
State officers might be designated could con-
tinue the work of the present Board of Prison
Commissioners. The expenses which would he
saved by this consolidation. without lessening
the efficiency Of the Commission, would he at
least $4,000 a wear
