LABOR INTERESTS.

The repeated demands made by those inter-
ested in labor for a uniform law in relation to
the employer and the employe is again pre-
sented to you with recommendation for favor
able action. While it is true that the courts
have decreed and laid down rules which cover
almost every possible contingency in negligence
cases, vet it would be more satisfactory If these
findings and such other provisions might be
considered desirable for the protection of the
interests of both the employer and the employe
were enacted into law al the present session of
the legislature. bill covering some of these
points was passed at the last session, which
contained provision to the limit of time in
which an action for damages could be brought
which seemed to render ii undesirable and it
failed for want of Executive approval
The consolidation of the various labor bureaus
has been in the main satisfactory. 1t could not
be expected that such radical change would
produce in short time the results aimed at.
l am convinced, however that the department
is in fair working order, and that every right
legally and morally can be accorded to the
toier far ii is within the powers OF the
present laws to do. A consideration of the dis
agreements which arise between the employers
and employees should receive attention. 1t has
been suggested that if labor organizations were
Incorporated they would be in position to en-
force agreements with employers and them
selves be amenable to the mandates of the
courts.
However, whether this suggestion would be
satisfactory or not II is impossible to tell. If a
court of arbitration were created, consisting OF
one by the employer, the two thus selected to
choose n third, giving to such board of arbitra-
ton the power to cause the attendance of wit
neSSeS. determine the questions at issue, and,
when approved by a justice of. the Supreme
Court, by judicial mandate compel compliance
with its findings such law might solve the
question. This is proposed 10 you with the hope
that your Investigations may lead to such action
will be satisfactory TO all interests concerned

THE SUNDAY OPENING QUESTION.
Governor Odelrs declaration against the Sun
oay sale Of liquor in saloons. and also that under
no circumstances should a referendum this
matter be permitted to cities until sanctioned
oy all the voters of the State met with the
nearly approval OF the Republican members OF
the Senate and the Assembly. Commenting
upon the Governors statement that all the peo-
pie Of the State should pass upon the PROPOSE
ton TO open the saloons on Sunday Senator
Trainer Dem) said:
OF course the Republican party as usual takes
tne position that the people of the State should
dictate what the cities should do.
Most of the members of the legislature think
there VIII be legislation this year in regard to
the Sunday sale of liquor and that the policy
has been adopted by the Republican leaders OF
having the laws in regard to the sale of liquor
strictly enforced by the heads of the police de-
partments of cities. most of whom are now Re
publican. Governor Oden. it was pointed out
tonight says in his message:
1t would seem that the laws which we have
leges accorded TO the hotels. with resultant i'm
morality, If such laws rigidly enforced by
police honestly and efficiently administered.
1t is believed that there may be a struggle in
the legislature over the abolition of the boards
of managers of the State hospitals for the in
sane and of those of State charitable institu-
tions, but that in the end this recommends ton
of the Governor will be adopted.

LOAN ASSOCIATIONS.

The legislative enactment of last year which
provided for the creation Of a surplus by build
ing and loan associations has been carried out.
with the result that the total surplus now re-
ported to the Superintendent of Banks is
$2,911 .SlS.
The same recommendation for their conduct is
made for the banks; that is. that the Super
intendent shall have power at all times To in
vestigate their condition and take possession Of
such concerns when in his judgment, they may
be dangerous the interests of stockholders
also, that they shall not be permitted to organ
ize hereafter without filing with the State
Superintendent OF Banks request for such

LEGAL HOLIDAYS.

by recent decision Of the Appellate Division
OF the Supreme Court it has been decided that
tHe deferment Of payments falling due upon
mondays applies only to such negotiable pa pers
as checks notes and drafts. and does not extend
70 many contracts. This law should therefore
ne amended so as to provide that in any other
FORM or contract where payments may fall due
on regal or designated holiday the same may
be deferred until the business cay following
New-York tribune., 1902-01-02
TRAVELLING EXPENSES.

A gross abuse which has arisen in all depart
rnents is the constant tendency toward allowing
travelling expenses TO those in the service Of
the State. This item amounted to S136,13S OF
during the last year and has grown TO that
amount from practically nothing in the year
1891. II seems to me to be excessive, and
direct your attention TO II.

DIVORCE LAW

In my last annual messag 1 recommended
a more uniform system in divorce proceedings.
The State Bar Association and the Bar Associa-
tion OF the City of New-York have taken this
matter up and recommend action upon the part
of the legislature which will provide that a
decree nisi be entered which shall not become
absolute for a period of at least six months
thereafter, with the belief that many of the
scandals which have arisen in the administra-
tion of divorce laws will be thus avoided.
l recommend to your favorable consideration
the enactment of such n law.

tion on the part Of the railroads at present ex-
istng against the port of New-York may be
ooVlated by State legislation, and that the port
OF Buffalo instead of being the point where
traf1c is diverted to Boston, Philadelphia and
other ports, may be made point from which II
can be directed 10 New-York. The suggestion is
made that the Board of Railroad Commission
ers be given power to hear complaints and to
reduce or fix rates after public hearings and
enforce their mandates, what atever they may be.
This subject is an important one, and 1 recon-
mend IL to your consideration.

CONCLUSION.

have aimed TO present to you carefully and
concisely statement of the affairs of the State.
There is no pride of opinion in the suggestions
offered but there is the hope that the results
of our labor may be the enactment of laws that
are for the good of the commonwealth, the up
building of our commerce and the transaction OF
the business of the State with fidelity and econ
omy to the end that may merit the con-
tinued approval ot the constituency we have the
honor to represent BENZ. B. ODELL JR.
New-York tribune., 1902-01-02

.he affairs Of seventy corporations during the
last ten years have been 81 666 223 S4
therefore recommend the amendment Of the
banking and insurance laws so to provide
that all proceedings affecting insurance and
banking corporations under the control Of the
state Banking and Insurance departments shall
NOT only be instituted by such departments re-
spectively, but that they shall be placed abso-
itely under their control during the liQuida ton
This would do away with the fees which are
now excessive, and would require the payment
only by the corporation involved OF the neces-
sary expenses in the closing up Of such organi-
zafiOns.
New-York tribune., 1902-01-02

to the laws which seek to impose a very small
tax upon the surplus OF these banks. If those
officials who claim that the reduction is made
necessary by reason of this action were entirely
fair, they would reduce the rate only by the
amount made necessary by the State tax of
SI00OOO which on the total deposits upon which
4 per cent is paid would leave the rate at 399

First, its feeding value in the form

much larger than any other tame
