been completed and In operation for
sbout ten months. The hospital for
insane was relieved q trifle by the
opening Of this institution, but Is now

I'D there.
The management Of our institutions,
he governor believes, should be
placed in the hands Of single board
II control.
Both political parties of this state
n their platforms have declared for a
primary election law, permitting the
electors to vote directly for the can
didates to be placed upon the ballot.
such laws have been adopted in other
states. They have been advocated
ind worked out by earnest men. Where
force they have proven satisfactory,
and the tendency is entirely toward
their extension. The governor be-
ieves that no act that this assembly
:ould pass would rebound more to its
credit and would be more heartily ap'
proved by the people of the state than
an act for comprehensive and com.
plete primary election law.
The governor believes that the irri
cation movement will be one of inesti.
mends that steps be taken to make a
thorough survey of the state.
