nothing of bringing results; and sec ond, because in my opinion, this is one office which should not be elective. duties of mIne inspector are large ly of technical nature and few men are qualified to perform them. The man who does so satisfactorily must be thoroughly equipped by education ard experience, and 1 believe that per sonal selection, following a rigid eX- aminatiCn-eXam.na nation of a cnarac- ter that is out of the public's reach Is tl.9 only way to reach the desired end.
 l recommend constitutional amendment in accordance with the belief l have expressed, making the mine inspector appointive, and sur roLnd-ng his appointment with such requirements as will insure the end being striven for-the health and safe ty of mine employees.

sUPPl fer the issuance of corporation char terS from the auditors office to that of the corporation commission, and supervision of foreign insurance con- panies from the office of the secretary Of state, fixing the fees to be charged, the life and extension of corporations, and carrying out and defining the other provisions of article XIV. In addition to this, the supervision of surety and fidelity ompanies, now lodged with the governor, should be likewise transferred, defined and regu- lated.
 "WiId-cattine."
 l am convinced that advanced steps should be taken to stop wild-catting, and l recommend that the corporation commission be clothed with further powers to that end. Since my. incum- bency of the office of governor, large numbers of inquiries have come to nand of such a nature as to indicate to my mind that great volumes of worth less stock, issued by companies hold ing Arizona charters, are being dis posed of throughout the country, thus not only drawing from the buyers of

I sug- gest that the Bureau of Legislative Research, should you see fit to adopt my suggestions with regard thereto, be directed to secure and compile such data as will be useful in determining the practicability of the establish ment of the old-age pension, deter mine the number of pioneers who might come within it's provisions, their ages, and the terms of their residence ill Arizona; to compile the old-age pen sion laws of other states and foreign countries, and the per capita cost of their carrying out, and to report to the second state legislature.

TO MoHAvE COUNTY MIN him, and most of them with Pharisai- cal horror shun him; these consti- ute the capital with which almost every convict re-enters the race of life. How vastly better would it be to fur nlsh some useful employment where by the faculties might be kept active and alert, hope sustained, the spirit quickened, and a little money accumu- lated against the day when self-depen- dence is resumed? Arizona affords ample opportunity for such employ ment-and the most healthful employ ment-in her plans for an elaborate road system, and I urgently recom- mend that the law specifically au- thorize the employment of prisoners on the public roads of the state, and that the state or tLe counties of the state in which such labor may be performed, be directed to deposit to the credit of the man so employed at least twenty-five cents per day for their services. The cost will be small as compared to the actual benefits to be derived from the construction of splendid highways, while the benefits accruing to society will, I am con-

 Legislative Help.
 In the interest of economy, I rec ommend, and in the light of intimate personal knowledge urge, that you make provision for the alteration of the plan by which legislative empIoyes aIe now selected. l am confident that thousands ot dollars may be saved bi- ennlally, and muCl higher standard of efficiency established, if you will make it the duty of the officer who provides other supplies, whether for the legislature or tor the departments and institutions, to employ, under merit system, all legislative attaches, while the abolishment of a spells sys- tenn, which has not infrequently dis graced our legislative bodies, will re- dound to your everlasting credit and stand as monument to your courage.
 Bureau of Legislative Research.

 If not full one, this is clear state ment of the financial status of the state, as it relates to the current and necessary general requirements, and discloses a condition which calls for your most careful attention, and for wise and prompt action.
 Limitation of Debt.
 A conflict of construction exists in the case of Section 5, Article TX, of the constitution, limiting the states indebtedness to three hundred and fifty thousand dollars. While in my opinion this was meant to refer only to unsecured indebtedness caused by insuftlciency of revenue to maintain the running expenses of the govern ment, and was not intended to include or limit the states bohded indebted ness, it will be prudent to submit a

By this time .Taylor's smile
had wholly wilted, and the COM
mission was regarding him
thoughtfully. One member of the
Commission picked up notes TAX
ing Taylor's testimony.
''We conduct a rigid investiga-
ton of every prospective en-
ploye," he read. 1--WE go back
ten years in every mans record,
because we hope every employe is
ambitious for advancement and
that in time he will be called upon

IN TESTIFYING

Washington, Feb. George
c. Taylor, of the American Ex-
press Company, took the stand
before the Interstate Commerce
Commission today. ,....,.::... -
The Commission desired to ask
Taylor about express rates., and
the highness thereof; but, like
Andy Carnegie, Taylor had his
own ideas as to what he should
testify to.
After a few uni1nportant re-
marks as to the lowness of rates,
Taylor branched off into a dis
cussion of the American Express
Company as an employer of la
Dor. ~. ..s
He became quite enthusiastic
on this subject, and told the Com
mission how his company took an
almost parental interest in its EN-
ployes. ..- ..t5: a@s
The Commission almost was at
the point of patting Taylor on the
back, telling him what a good
man he was, and sending him
home, when Examiner Ryan, for
the Commission, entered the
room, bearing documents.
Il want to tell the commission
about the way employees of ex-
press companies are treated"
