millage tax levy of LOS mills.
He said he still doubted the adj
visibility of placing the five high
er Institutions under one board of
regents.
Asks investigation.
The governor urged that a spe-
cial committee investigate the in
dustrial insurance department, in
which request he said the indus
trial insurance commission joined
him.
The capitol situation was as
serted to be one of the serious
problems before the legislature,
as the present building is so over
crowded that serious loss of rec
ords, etc., might res ult.
Not even completion Of the
present building, at a cost of
$450,OO0 to $3.50, 00A, would re-
lieve the congestion.
Smaller National Guard.
"If any new work should be
undertaken" said the governor,
1.-The next great need of the state
would be the construction of q
capitol building" He estimated
the cost of providing for all the
states needs in this direction for
years to come at $4,000,000.
The governor opposed the maxi
mum levy of one mill for mill
tary purposes, recommended in
the new military code prepared by
the national guard, and also the
$40 OF a mill recommended by
the adjutant general
ut seems to me-" he said, "the
best plan is to go over The recon-
mendations made by the adiutant
general and reduce them wherever
possible, with view to maintain
ing a smaller and more efficient
National Guard. If this
plan is followed, the state will
probably be able to build up its
National Guard to the point re-
quired by the. federal government
during the next two-year period,
and by the time another session
of the legislature is held, the
military policy will be SO fixed
that we can then act with a full
understanding of what is requir-
ed"
Asks Bureau BE Abolished.
He also urged that the legisla-
ture ask congress to reimburse
the state for many expenses in
connection with the mobilization
of the troops which should prop
erly have been paid by the federal
government.
With sharp criticism of
the work of the bureau Of in
spection and supervision of
public offices, which he said
had rendered many grossly
incorrect and practically val
uless reports during the last
four years, the governor
recommended the abolition
of the bureau and that the

NEW YORK, Jan. 10--Found-
Utopia. The dreamland where
all is bliss is not a myth after 'all.
Utopia is Pitcairn Island, in the
South Seas.
Ninety-nine persons out of 100
never headl of Pitcairn Island, for
isolation has kept the doings OF
the little realm out of the public
prints.
But when Emily Mccoy, one of
the Inhabitants, had come to the
United States, received a diploma
as a nurse at Bridgeport, Conn,
and prepared to start back home,
Pitcairn's secret was barred in an
interview.
No Sin on Island.
There is no sin on the island"
said Miss Mccoy, "for the reason
that the only book the inhabitants
study is the Bible. No elopements
are of record and no violations of
the marriage vow have been
known in the history of the ISL
and. None of the inhabitants ever
has tasted intoxicants or used to-
bacco. There is little or no ill
ness.
Three days of each week ev-
cry one who is able-bodied works
at building roads and improving
the island. The next three days
are devoted to their homes. Sun
day, after attending church for
three hours, the people make calls
or rest.
1.-THE only animals on the island
are several hundred goats, from
which milk is obtained. Every
thing is socialistic, all sharing
alike in the products that are
raised. The people have no money,
