Il am urged to recommend the ad-
VisEhi}itS ct some active effort to ad-
vertise our mineral opportunities, but
the enormous output of our mines and
the splendid profit which they are an
nually yielding speak louder than
words to the intelligent investor.
The situation at present demands,
and I recommend the enactment of a
law providing for the regulation of
ventilation and sanitation of mines
under the authority of the state mine
Inspector. This matter, which is nee
essary to preserve the health and lives
OF the miners, is treated exhaustively
in the report of the mine inspector.
Express companies, sleeping car
companies, telegraph companies, inter
urban telephone companies should be
treated like the railroads and put un-
der the control of the railroad COM
mission, and the law should vest in
the commission the authority TO ex-
ercise any control necessary for the
most ample protection of the public.
Il renew the recommendation made
to the Ninth legislative assembly for
the creation Of railroad commission,
with full power to regulate rates in
the state. s.-
Il am Of the opinion that the
chances for fraud and imposition
would he greatly lessened if the
claims against the bounty fund were
made non-assignable, and I recon-
mend that the present law be amend
ed accordingly.
There is at least $lO,C0J in the
fish and game fund in excess Of the
needs OF that fund, which | recon-
mend BE- transferred to the general
fund ana out of which the necessary
appropriations be made for the State

Our state educational institu ions
are in flourishing condition, but the
unsatisfactory manner of their main
tenance by haphazard appropriations

lay out any general plan of necessary
