Too much or our Ictrlslntlnn Is liullt nnmi
the Klvc-und-tiiku nlan n system "of you

every legislative hull unit till the way up to
tne national nulls or congress. Tlio lobby
exerts untitle Influence. As n result of these
things wo havu it mnss of Ill-considered
laws, the meaning of which Is obscure,
many contradictory, and when submitted
to tho test of constitutional Interpreta
tion, utterly fall nnd become null and void.
Wo need fewer rather than mnrn laws.
Tho legislators who will repeal n large num
ber oi laws now upon our law hooks, which
are, und have been for years, dead letters.
and will strip others of uselesH verbiage
wnicn tentis to onscuro their meaning and
clothe them In lungtingn so plain that the
"wayfaring man, though ti simpleton, need

the few needed laws frumo them so nlaln
und direct that there can bo no room for
any tmlbbllmr ns to their meaning, would
earn for themselves memorial tablets from

Many laws passed by tho Iculslnturc
would fall of enactment If tho voters and

Tho stntc treasurer reports a balance on
hand at close of business November 30.
, of JG15.018.3I. Tho bundled indebtedness
of the stnto has been entirely paid and a
uaianco in mo sinKing rutin or kv,iuj.-i.
This you should transfer to tho ucnerul
fund ami authorize tho treasurer to credit
any further moneys coming Into that fund
to tho general fund. No further levy for
tho sinking fund has been made, but somo
back taxes upon that fund will bo collected
rrom year lo year, uur llontluc indebted
tiess represented by state' warrants Is
fl.T27.50U.7'J Tho school fund has Invested In
$l,lCj.;a.'.l2 or this, amount, which Jias
practically put tho state upon a cash., basis
so far as tho purchase of supplies nnd tho
malntennnco of our state Institutions are
concerned. The Interest arising from .theso
warrants goes into tho temporary school
fund nnd is distributed again to tho tax
payers through tho school fund apportion
ment. Tho treasurer very Justly remarks
that n thorough ruvlslon of tho revenue
laws should be made, or nn amendment
authorizing a levy of 7 mills for tho general
fund Instead of 0, since tho present levy
does not keep up with tho appropriations,
thereby Increnslng, rather than reducing,
our lloatlng Indebtedness. To my mind a
Just assessment Is much more preferable
than an Increased levy. Our present levy
of 5 mills would bo all sufficient If our
assessment wus whnt It should be. Tho
state's educational funds nro Invested in tho
securities designated by tho constitution to
the amount or st.suo.ini.ra. i-;ach year nils
It moro difficult to secure investment for
theso funds In thn securities required by the
constitution. The constitution should bo
amended, allowing a larger scope for in
vestment of tho state's educational funds.
1 concur In tho recommendation of tho
treasurer, reducing tho Interest upon statu
wurranls to U per cent. This will enable
tho treasurer to scctiro practically all of
theso warrants for tho school fund Invest
mcnt. Tho present condition of tho state's
tlnnnccs, as compared with even so recent
a dato ns four years, ago. must bo a Bource
of congratulation to the citizens of Ne

Hleetloit of United Stntcs Senators
Ono of tho most Important duties which
you have to perform Is tho election of two
senators to represent Nebraska In tho
senate or the United States. Tho ex
perlenco of our own stnte, us well as that
or other states, in times past, recalls to us
me diiiicuity uiteniliug this duty. Bee
tlonalism, Individual preferences, business
interests and many other fnctors enter Into
this problem. Tho selection of senators
would bo much stmplllled, and thoso chosen
to that high office more representative, If
tho peoplo themselves chose them by direct
vote. Thu ttmo of the legislature, which
is really too snort for tho careful con
sldcrutlan of legislation, is taken up and
the minds of tho members distracted with
tho too often long drawn-out struggles In
tho election of United Stntes senators.
Grave suspicions are aroused in tho inluds
of tho peoplo that money oxorclses undue
inllueneo In these elections. Illy-considered
legislation Is placed upon the statute books.
All theso grave nvlls would bo eliminated
by direct election by popular vote.
1 would recommend that you memorialize
congress to submit n constitutional amend
ment providing for tho election of senators
by direct vote of tho people.
Tho state officers nnd the heads of tho
various nubile Institutions h.iv nresented

Theso reports show tho great care and busi

As a matter of fact, under thesn conditions

Slntc .ornuil School.
The lamely Increased atendance nt tho
Stuto Normal school makes It Imperative
that somo increase in tho facilities should
be nrovlded bv you. The assembly room
thero has n canncltv for seating C00. Tho
attendance during the term Inst past wns

probability or yet further Increase during

stantly recurring beforo each, legislature for

creation of an additional school or schools
would create additional expense Tor the
lnanaccmeiit or tho same. Kuch school
would requlro officers nnd conveniences for
vno coiiuuci or mn business or tne school
Theso nro nractlcally tho samo for either u

would require a ilutillcntion of theso neces
sltlcs and it corresponding Increase In out
lay. An increase in library rachitics.

Is better business Judgment to afford ample
racllltles thero than to attempt to iituid
up schools In other localities. Ono great
normal school, like one great university. Is
better for the educational' Interests or tho
state than two ;ir more smaller Institutions.
An nunrnnrlatlon for tho bulltllnc or n new

As Indicated In whnt has gone bo fere In
this message, thero are, in my opinion, a
number of amendments needed to our statn

to mn you should make provisions for the
calling of a constitutional convention to

The legislature at Its last session made
appropriation ror tho purchaso or an ex
ecutive mansion, and tho Hoard or Public
Lands and lluildlngs, lu accord vlth that
provision, secured u very desirable prop
erty tor that purpose. No provision wns
made, howover, for tho renewal or rurnlsh
lnir and the enro and maintenance or such
residence. Tho enre or n public rcsldenco
entails a heavy expense upon tho governor.
It seems to mo no good reason can bo given
ror requiring the governor to maintain
a mansion, which Is very largely ror public
benefit, nt his own expense. Tho stnto
should lake earn of thn states property
For this reoson I would recommend that
you miiKe adequate provision ror tho care

.ii;rororo recommend, witn n view to tcm
porary relief, that an uct bo passed em

I nlso recommend the submission to tho
voters of tho slate or n nronosltlon to so
amend tho constitution ns to empower the
legislature, under proper restrictions, to
provide for such nn Increase In the number
oi judges or me supreme court ns snail in

The laws or isenrasKH-necd amendment in

necessary, and to nlso prepare a rovcntiu
measure providing for an equitable taxa
tion of till property throughout the state.
Section ill of urtlcle v of thn constitution
should be so amended that tho legislature
shall have authority to create u state board
or control for the management or our state

tho submission of an amendment of that

exposition which Is to be held at

approval.
Nebraska should be properly represented
at the exposition to be held In St. Louis in

made for that purpose.
(i renter Penalty for jCldiiuper.
Your nttentlon Is hereby directed to tho
Inadequacy of the law applying to tho
crlmo of kidnaping and child stealing. I
would recommend that tho law uo so
amended us to make kidnaping or child
stealing a felony, ptinlshabla by Imprison
ment in the penitentiary for a period of not
less than live nor moro than thirty ycr.rs;
that the age limit be remove4 and tha. the
unlawful or forcible holding r captivity of
nny person lit a place other than tho
natural or lawrul domicile or nooao or sain

or repressing' this sort or crime.

which have proven 'lo bo nnnoylng und
disastrous to others who have held the

wus his predecessor, lo purcnnsn u surety

Tho senate met in the afternoon nt 2 p.
m. and uftcr roll call tho members formed
tn lino and proceeded to tho house, whero
tha Inaugural exercises were conducted.
Lieutenant Governor Tnkes Hold.
After tho exercises tho senate reconvened
and proceeded to business. Olcson of Cum
ing was recognized, It being his dcslro to
resign from the commltteo on privileges
and elections, owing to tho fact that tho
contest proceedings lu his own case had not
been dropped, us ho had supposed. The
resignation was accepted and Martin of
Richardson was named In Olcson's place.
Webber of Antelope moved that a com
mltteo ot thrco bo named to escort Lieu
tenant Governor Savngo to the senate
chamber, tho chnlr naming Webber, Harlan
and Lyman, who soon returned accom
panied by the new presiding officer amid
applause from tho floor and galleries.
In retiring from his position ns the pre
siding officer of tho sonato Lieutenant Gov
ernor Gilbert did so In a few woll-ctioscn
words. Uo snld his relations with tho
present body had been of tho most pleasant
nature, aud bo desired to thank tho senate
for Its attention during the short time he
had been In the chair. Ho then Introduced
Lieutenant Qovornor Savage, who addressed
tho senate briefly.
I am not unmindful of tho honorable nnd
responsible, position to which I have been
elected, that of iiresldlncr over your hon-
orauio oouy. wiuie i um wen aware oi
my Inability to do as 1 would
wish, nnd In my frailties I crave
your kind Indulgence, I will ut u'l
times strlvo lo bo fair and honest. I will
undoubtedly miiko mistakes, bui I ossuw
you Hint they will bo cheerfully corrected
as soon ns brought tn my notice. Iir my
rulings and decisions I will know no sena
tor's politics or religion and I assure you
that each will bo granted us much courtesy
us Is granted me.
Promptness, dispatch and economy nre
requisite in all successful prlvnto business
nnd I know no reason why they cannot be
ns properly npplled to pub lo nrfulrs. Vo
aro tho servants of the public; let us strlvo
to economlzo in nil iuiiiks io as grein u uu
urea as is consistent with good work.
Much stroes waB laid upon the Importance
of doing away with unnecessary adjourn
mcnts by the lleutenaut governor. He
thought tho session should be mado as
short as possible. It wns only Justice to
tho members who lived In tho moro re
moto parts of the state and could not take
ndvantago of tho adjournments to go homo
and look after private Interests, as tho
members who lived nenrer could do.
Mr, Savago Impressed upon tho members
that his hearing was somowhat Impaired
nnd ho desired them to speak clearly whou
addressing tho chair. Thero was nothing
which would como up In tho sonato which
any momher should bo deprived of hearing
and by Bpeaklng clearly and distinctly tho
senators would only Improve tho work of
tho senate.
Tho lieutenant governor closed his rj
marks by saying that ho was' extremely
Jealous of this body of legislators and h&
hoped their work would bo a credit to tho
stato aa well us themselves.
Heforo thn senate adjourned Young of
Stanton mado a motion which ompoweied
tho committee on privileges and elections
to employ all clerks and stenographers
deemed necessary, tho motion bclnp;
adopted. Upon motion of Owens of Dawson
the senate ndjourned until 2 o'clock Mon
day afternoon.
