uted most generously 10 relieve the
suffering. which has been done tenn
porarily. The disaster was of such
magnltude that | issued special
proclamation calling upon the differ
ent municipalities and charitable or
CARNATIONS for contributions to relieve
the distress. and now submit to you
the propriety of making a special con-
tribution of money for the relief of the
poor people during the winter.
This was done at the time of the
White Ash Coal Mine disaster in 1895,
and | believe no better use could be
made OF a portion of the surplus in the
treasury than by approprlating rea-
sonable amount to be expended under
the direction OF the board of county
commissioners of Grant county to help
these poor people through the winter.
They are nearly all native people,
farmers, ard wholly dependent upon
their little farms and orchards for
support, unfamiliar with any other
means of making a living, and utterly
helpless until they can raise another
crop and I commend this suggestion
to your most serious consideration.
Game Laws.
The present game laws Of the terri.
tory should be amended In many par
ticulars. A fine OF $4,000. or three
months Imprisonment, or both, should
be imposed on any person or persons

in this territory, for period of ten
years from and after the passage OF
the act Also al, that part o. section
OF chapter XLvI, laws Of 1901. which
reads Except upon private ground

Your attention Is called tc the re-

seen that the duties and responsible
ties OF thLt Office, are already large

OF the militia bill now pending In con

be coming to the territory for the sup
port OF its organized militia, as well as
largely increasing the duties OF the
adjutant generals ONCE. The adult
ant general Is the head OF the organic
ed militia In the territory and his sal.
arg in my judgment should be increas-
ed so as TO be commensurate with his
duties and responsibilities. And also
the appropriation for armory rent and

be increased and made for both pur
poses instead Of being divided as now

the fact that the successful prosecu-

states has been impeded by Individ.

that an act be passed by your body

property for that purpose. but without
any unnecessary interference of pri
