Governor Pleased.


In the following statement Gov
Major comments upon the work ac-
complished by the forty-eighth gen.
eral assembly He has passed upon
all Of the 14S bills enacted by the ses-
sion,, except the appropriation meas
ures and few others,
His estimate Of the work is that the
session enacted more large and pro
gressive measures than the average
Legislature
His statement in part is as follows:
81 have approved or vetoed all the
measures passed by the Legislature,
with the exception of some five or six
bills, and am now in position to speak
as to its labors. I can say, without
any hesitancy, that the present assem-
bly, enacted more constructive and
progressive, demidial and corrective
legislation than did any mid-term ses-
sion in more than decade, and will
outrank in this respect any other mid
term session in my recollection. In the
matter Of progressive and constructive
legislation it cannot be compared with
the session Of 1918, for that was rec
cTu-breaking one, conceded so to be by
the public generally and by all polit-
ical parties. That session carried out
my four-year program"

eral other oils which cottonseed oil
is finally turned into, transformation
which increases its value twofold.
The crushing of cottonseed and ex-
tracing oil from the pulp is an infant

growing future ahead of it. 1t required

grown during the years 1894, to pro
