Two years ago an act, introduced
by me, passed the legislature, for a

to be established at or near the
scenes of their operations and chief
activities. The Governor through
some underhanded influences, gave
it a pocket veto. Now the matter
means business, and instead of the
$500 called for by that act, no less
than $4,000 should be given by the
state, even though the next legisla-
ture is compelled to retract the vari-
GUS increase Of salaries, and addit-
ional state officers, to do it. And, by
the way what fitting thing it would
be to have the Salary Grabs" re-
turned to the state and used for this
purpose!
