At Urt TortU i th Mtuaut f tk rrttor ( the lgittatiirt, Bismarck (Dak.) special: Gov, Church's auunal message was presented to the joint seesiou of the legislature to day. The governor called attention to the reckless extravagance with which the appropriations for public institutions are expended, and was severe in his criti cism of the management of territorial institutions. The total bonded indebtedness ex pended in building mid furnishing the public institutions of the territory is 81,0i8,800. Regarding (lie financial condition of the territory, ho said the total receipts for the year ending November 30, ist, were 'i,kS,:wk.; and the disburse ments for the same H.'riod $!,7!,4!m.32. lho total value of proticitv 111 the terri tory, as bliowu bv tlio assessment rolls for im, is 81il,40,!l74.30. As 4,:SO0 miles of railroad and other projierty be longing to the railroads, with a valua tion of over M,OOn,00". is not assessed and forum 110 part of the above valua tion, tho railroads being taxed upon thoir gross earnings, and a? prorty is nsually assessed at from one-half to bvo thirds of its actual value, it is a moder ate and safe estimati- to place tlio actual property value or in altli of the territory at ?:!OU,000,OOJ. lhe governor trcilict.s thai when Da kota becomes a state her 3 per cent bonds will noil more r.'adilv than her4V ier cent territorial bonds did mid bo calls especial attention to the fact that tins is the first lime iu the hisU,rv of tuitod States when a territo rial bond sold at less than 5 UECOirilKKKM NO Al'I'BorUMTIONS. The recommendation is made that, nn appropriations be passed for building or improving tike territorial institutions, the information being volunteered that so far as buildings ami like conveniences are concerned, the territory is in good shape, and will need iioHiino- nu.ro. in that line for several vears. lho trouble with the Yanktan trustees w ulhuleil to at ImitrUi. Alld tllA action of the executive in removing the old board and aniKiintin? a haw mm in explained. The report of the public examiner into the affairs of the institu tion is also submitted. It is shown that the trustees of the Jamestown Hnvlnm exceeded their appropriation for the two years ending March 80, 187, by &M.377, and for 1888 by tho amount of 88,923. This he says, is chargeable to 'laxity of management that' to a disregard of care in the manage ment of funds appropriated forib) maintenance." The manner of niana?incr mil die inM. tutions is characterized as extravagant, and recommendation is made for a law tliat will enable the povernor. auditor or some other official, to restrain extrav agance and curtail the expenses of the various boards. The cost to the territory during the past two years of the board of trustees of the various institutions is shown to have lieen $2,777.82, certainly a very exorbitant amonnt, considering tho na ture of tho duties iierfonned.
