INDIANA.

[Continued from fiirst page.]

has served without any compensation. Department of Geology. The report of the state geologist has attracted much attention among scientists on account of its bringing to light new organic remains found among the rocks of the state, and on account of surface discoveries of a novel and important character. His tests of Indiana building stone, showing the superior quality thereof with respect to the important features of endurance and elasticity, have opened new markets for the stone and much increased the sale thereof. Beds of gravel have also been found by him, at places where the existence of such deposits had not before been suspected, which are furnishing material for improved roads. The state "geological cabinet has been increased during tho past year by an addition, with trifling expense, of more than forty thousand interesting and valuable specimens New coal deposits have also been discovered and public attention directed to them.

State Board of Health.

This board was established by an act of the last general assembly.. Twentysix states had previously established like boards. The work of the board has been prosecuted with zeal. Its report, and the report of its executive officer, give a full statement of the work done since it entered upon the discharge of its duties.

Attorney General's Report. The large collections made by the attorney general of moneys received by various officers, which were payable to the state, but had been withheld, and the result of important suits in which the state has been interested, as well as the condition of pending suits, are shown by his report. The litigation involving the title to the valuable tract of land near Indianapolis, purchased many years since as a site for the house of refuge, but not used as such, consisting of an hundred acres, has been decided in favor of the state, and the state has quiet possession of the land.

Public Printing.

By reference to the report of secretary of state, it will be seen that a deficiency has existed for several years in the appropriations for public printing. The work is done for a fair price, but the cost of what necessarily must be done exceeds somewhat the sums appropriated.

The State Militia.

Attention is called with pleasure to the energetic and success! ul efforts of the adjutant general to increase the numbers and improve the discipline of our active militia. The encampment held at Indianapolis last summer, at which some of the most prominent militia companies of the country engaged in a competition for prizes with our own companies, and witl^one another, drew to it a vast number of interested spectators, gave a renewed impulse to the martial spirit, and has been productive of excellent results. I take this occasion to render acknowledgements to the gentlemen composing my staff for their arduous and disinterested services on that occasion. Since the encampment broke up, many new companies have been formed, and a disposition to elevate the standard of attainment in all military exercises has been manifest. The recommendations contained in the adjutant general's report, are commended to your careful consideration. I particularly urge upon you the importance of passing a law, in conformity to his recommendation, to provide for copying into record books, to be procured for that purpose, the muster-in and muster-out rolls of the Indiana soldiers. These contain an account of each soldier. "When this record shall have been made, a frequent handling of original papers will be unnecessary, and the papers will thus be presurved from injury. It will be a reproach to the state if performance of this duty shall be longer neglected.

There is a necessity, also, that you shall provide, without delay, a fireproof vault for the purpose of securing these papers against the hazards of fire. Their destruction would do incalculable injustice to persons having the strongest claims to grateful recognition by the state.

Revised Statutes.

In conformity to a requirement contained in the act of 1881, concerning the publication of the new revised statutes, I appointed the gentlemen composing the board of revision, commissioners to prepare these statutes for publication, and to superintend the publication thereof. The last delivery of the copies required by law to be filed in the clerks offices of the several counties was made in July, 1882.

Tin cost of the printing, binding and delivery was $22,233.76, being $2,700.24 less than the appropriation for the purpose.

The commissioners, in their contract, took the precaution to provide, that as soon as the number of volumes prescribed by law had been printed, the stereotype plates employed in printing it, should without additional charge, be turned over to the state.

For the laborious work performed by the commissioners after the end of their term of office, I have no doubt it will be the pleasure of the General As sembly to provide a proper compensation.

The New State House.

The progress of the work upon the ru-w state house since the general as sembly last met has, on the whole, been satisfactory. While in 1881 the work did not proceed quite as actively as had been anticipated, it has during the year just closed been prosecuted as diligently as the most sanguine could well have hoped. Under the careful and vigilant supervision of the commissioners, it is believed that it has been thoroughly well executed, and will bear the sternest tests. It is a subject ot great regret that the execution of the remainder of the work is liable to bo retarded by a dissatisfaction on the part of the contractors, arising from losses said by them to have been necessarily incurred while they have gbeen engaged in a diligent and faithful performance" of tlieir contract. The cost of materials and tho price of labor have risen, as they claim, altogether above what they expected, when they entered upon their undertaking. If" they should decline to proceed further under existing circumstances, a grave duty will be devolved upon you in determining what course will be the wisest to secure an eNrly and satisfactory execution of the unfinished part of the work.

Provision was made in the contract that changes directed by the commissioners, with the consent of the contractors, during the progress of the work, should not operate to discharge the liabilities of the sureties upon the contractors' bond, and in everv instance where changes have been made with the consent of the contractors and in conformity to an opinion of the

attorney general that the change would not release the sureties. lie Kankakee Marsli.

At the iast session of the general assembly an act was passed empowering the governor to appoint a civil engineer to make a survey of the wet swamp lands of the Kankakee region in this state, and to take levels, and make careful estimates, with a view of ascertaining the cheapest and most practicable outlets and routes,by which to effect successfully a drainage of that vast body of fertile lands. An appropriation of S3,000 was made to enable the engineer to prosecute the work, and the governor was empowerod at his discretion, to direct surveys to be made of other wet lands for alike purpose.

On the fifth day of May, 1881, I appointed as the civil engineer for the purposes contemplated in the act, Proi. John L. Campbell, of Wabash college, who had been successfully conducting the United States goedetic survey in this state. He accepted the appointment, and, having organized a corps of assistants, entered promptly upon his important work. I can not too highly commend the manner in which he and his able corps of assistants have discharged their duties. His clear and exhaustive report should receive your most attentive consideration.

Fees and Salaries.

For many years complaints have been made in the more populous counties that the" fees and salaries of officers were too large for the services performed. It has also been asserted that the means to which there are often strong temptations to resort, for obtaining nominations for offices so lucrative, and for securing success at the polls, have a corrupting effect upon elections. Before the adoption of the constitutional amendments of 1881, the legislature was deprived of the power of curing this supposed evil. In that year an amendment was passed which has removed the difficulty. This amendment was submitted to the electors of the state, and prevailed by a majority of more than 90,000 votes. A session of the legislature has intervened since this amendment was adopted, but no act has been passed regulating the compensation of officers in the manner contemplated. Every officer should be adequately paid for his services, but it is due to the people that no greater sum shall be taken from them, in the way of fees and salaries, than is necessary to pay to the officer a fair compensation. Officers frequently, however, relinquish regular occupation to obtain these places, under an expectation that the rate of «fces prevailing when they were elected will be substantially maintained. It might be just, therefore, to postpone the operation of the regulating act for a reasonable time after its passage. A bill properly regnlating fees and salaries will require much thoughtful consideration, and should engage your attention at a very early period of the session.

Constitutional Amendments. The first section of the sixteenth article of the state constitution is in the following language: "Any amendment or amendments to this constitution may be proposed in either branch of the general assembly and if the same shall be agreed to by a majority of the members elected to each of the two houses, such proposed amendments shall, with the yeas and nays thereon, be entered on their journals and referred to the general assembly, to be chosen at the next general election and if, in the general assembly so next chosen, such proposed amendment or amendments shall be agreed to by a majority of all the members elected to each house, then it shall be the duty of the general assembly to submit such amendment or amendments to the electors of the state and if a majority of said electors shall ratify the same, such amendment or amendments shall become a part of this constitution."

At the special session of the general assembly in 1881, several joint resolutions were introduced, which were passed by a vote of a majority of the members eleeted to each of tho two houses, proposing certain amendments to the constitution. The titles of the several resolutions, and their numbe: j, were entered on the journals of the two houses, together with the yeas and nays on the passage. An enrolled copy of each resolution containing the amendment set out at full length, was signed by the president of the senate and the speaker of the house of representatives, transmitted to the governor, and tiled by him, in conformity to law, in the office of the secretary of state. In the canvass for the election of senators and representatives to the present general assembly, the point, it is believed, was not raised that proper steps had not been taken in the last general assembly to enable tho present one to consider the amendments. Since the election, however, the point has been raised through the public press that the proposed amendments are not in a condition to be considered by the present general assembly, because, it is said, they were not entered at length in the journals of the two houses of the last general assembly. Neither of the points raised has been settled in this state by any judicial decision. An executive Construction was given, however, to one of them in a message of Governor Baker, in the casc^ of what is known as the Wabash & Erie canal amendment. The amendment was not entered at length upon the journal of either of the two houses. The resolution by which the a§iendment was proposed was referred to in the journal of each house, by its title merely, and the'enrolled copy thereof was signed by the presiding officer of each house, and was duly filed in the office of the secretary ol state.

Governor Baker maintained that this was a sufficient compliance with the terms of the constitution.

The constitution requires, in case of bills, that upon the passage thereof the vote shall be taken by yeas and nays and entered upon the journals of the two houses. In' a case where the point was urged that an act was not in force because no entry of the yeas and nays on its passage appeared in the journals, the supreme court held that the signatures of the presiding officers were conclusive evidence of the passage.

The constitution is silent respecting the manner in which a proposed amendment shall be, referred from the firet to the second general assembly. The main object, no doubt, is to get it before the second assembly. If the genuine resoltision passed comes before the second assembly, and is acted upon, the object of a refcrancc would seem to have been attained, and the purpose ot the framers of that instrument to have been carried out. There was, I believe, no formal reference of the amendments adopted- in 1SS1 by the first to the second general assem bly.

In the canvass last autumn it is said that some of the senators and representatives who were chosen at the No veuiber election publicly pledged themselves that, if they were chosen,

anew turn last night. A package of affidavits was received from Colorado refuting the recent attacks on Senator

they would vote at the present session to submit the amendments to the electors at a special election. Without saying anything respecting the merits of the several amendments, I can frankly express a belief that pledges upon which electors were induced to vote for gentlemen holding seats in either of the two houses of tnis assembly, will not be disregarded except for overwhelming reasons.

Conclusion.

The importance of the subjects which will engage your attention during the session, and the limited time allowed to you by the constitution for their consideration, will require you to enter early and vigorously upon your work. It will give me pleasure to supply you with such facilities for the performance of your duties as can be furnished by the executive department. And I trust that, under the guidance of Divine Providence, error may be avoided and the best interests of the people subserved.

How About tlie Doses.

Many people before purchasing a medicine naturally inquire the size of the dose and the strength of it. In using Burdock Blood Bitters a teaspoonfull for the little ones and two teaspoons for grown folks are all that is necessary at onetime. This magnificent medicine is not only economics but very pleasant to the taste.

In the stock market the day has shown decided improvement over any day this week, not only in prices, but in the general tone of the market. Whatever may be the experience to-morrow, rr next wtek, it i» quite certain, sayathePost, that a great many persons—including several well known bankers—who have^Heretofore refrained from expressing any opinion at all, now express more confidence in the upward movement of prices. There Is reason to believe some expedients being resorted to by some parties to produce the desired effect and that in many respects a situation, for as ease In money, both here and iy Europe, and also the condition of railroad earnings are concerned, is favorable. In the last hour of business the market fell off percent, from the highest prices of the day, but the closing prices were generally higher than at the close yesterday. The volume^of business too, has teen from 20 to 25 pea cent, larger than yesterday. The most active stoeks in the last hour were Denver, Lackwanna & Western, Erie, St. Paul, Northern Pacific, and Texas St Pacific.

Mr. Gould denies that he has any intention of making the Mobile & Ohio any part of the Wabash system. In connection with the decline of 3 per qent. in Metropolitan Elevated railroad bonds this morning, there is authority for the statement that there was a movement yesterday in the directory of the Manhattui Company to restore the Metropolitan line to the stockholders of that company, and demand a settlement of accounts. It is claimed by the Manhattan directors that the Metropolitan earnings have been overestimated, and that i.t would be a benefit to the Manhattan lo restore the property to its own stockholders. It was rumored yesterday that the Lake Shore directors were considering a proposition to issue six million dollars in bonds to pay for the "Nickel-Plate" road. This was at first denied, but was repeated again today. 1—3

Letter From a Traveler.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Sept. 20, 1SSJ.

I think It a duty I owe to humanity lo say what your remedy has dofie for me. One year ago I contracted a bad case of blood disease, and not knowing the result of such troubles, I allowed it-to run on for some time, but finally applied to the best physicians in this city, who treatocl me for six months. In that time 1 took over 600 pills of protoiodide of mercury, \i grain each, and had run down in weight from 210 to 157 pounds, and was confined to my bed with Mercurial Rheumatism, scarcely able to turn myself in bed. Being a traveling man. some of the fraternity found me in this deplorable condition, and recommended, me to try vour cases cific, nMMKSBjrW:1'"' had they aWbcen curof se by its use. I commenced the use of It with very little faith, and in less than three weeks was able to take my place on tho road. The sores and copper-colored spots gradually disappeared, and to-day I have not. a sore or spot on my person, and iny weisihL is 217 pounds, being moro than it ever was. Ido not wish you to publish my name, but you may show this letter to any who doubt the merit of S. S. S., for I know It is a sure cure.

Yours truly, J. 11. B.

Some thirty years ago there lived in Montgomery, Ala., a young man who was terribly atllicted. After being treated for a long time by the medical profession of this town with no benefit, he common"** taking S. H.S. After persistently tak: it two months, he was cured. Being 'inainted with him for twenty years thai after, I can testify that the disease ne" made its return.

Ask any Druggist as to our standing. *1,000 BEWARB will be paid to any Chemist who will find on analysis of 1U0 bottles of S.
