OPPOSED TO BUREAU
JUDGE WILKINSON TALKS or IMsfI-
 GRAFTON HILL.
Chief Citfk to Commission Of Asrfcul. ture Says Proposed Measure En- cr0aches On Duties of That
 Department.

Opposition to the passage of the pro- posed bill for the establishment of a State Bureau of Immigration, on the ground that 1t would result in the needless expenditure of money, and that it provides for a department the duties of which are at the present time a part of the duties of the State De- partment of Agriculture and Indus tries, was expressed yesterday by Judge w IF. Wilkinson, chief clerk in the agricultural department.
 Judge wilkinson is brother of J. "A. Wilkinson, Commissioner-el of the Department of Agriculture and In- dustries, and will probably remain in the office he occupies at present under the new administration.
 Stating his views on the proposed measure, Judge Wilkinson said:
 sThe bill, as published in the papers few days ago to create State Irn- migration Bureau, if enacted into law, will cause an unnecessary expenditure of money. It ehcroaches upon the du- ties of the Commissioner of Agriculture and Industries, and creates another de- partment with very near the same du. ties as arc now imposed by law on the Commissioner of Agriculture and In- dustries. For instance, Sub division g.. of Section 37s of the Code. says: That At is tue uuty ol tHo ABFicuAtutAi Sun- missioner to collect and publish statis. tics and other information in regard to the industries of the State
 Sub division g, of the same section. provides that he shall collect agricul- tural statistics of each county, etc. Sub division 13, same section. provides that he shall prepare a handbook with maps with all necessary information as to the mines, minerals, forests, soils band other products climate. swater pow CTS, etc, and all such statistics as are best adapted to give proper informa- tion of the attractions and advantages
