The tumult and shouting dies, the
mad rush for meeting to conference,
and back to meeting again, has given
oven to the blessed hush and peace
cf a perfect Sabbath, and as 1 sit by
the lake there is nothing to disturb
the serene calm but the lapping of
the waves on the shore, and the liquid
birdnotes of the birds in the branches
overhead.
Having asked several of the natives
(he meaning of the word Chautauqua
and receiving no more satisfactory re
ply thail that “it is an Indian name”
I was unexpectedly answered as 1
stood by the shore of the sapphire
lake. The waves themselves say
J Chau-tau-qua', Chau-tau-qua, as they

| no feat of the imagination to as
i sume that the lake named itself whern

greatly diversified for the production
of food stuffs. We believe with the
$20,000 incurred soon after the insti
tution was taken from the manage
ment of the prison board.
The Roster Commission, as has al
ready been made public, is declared
to be dilatory in finishing its work,
and to have spent some $56,000 in a
period of eighteen years without com
pleting a definite task that should
have been completed long ago.
The state library and the libary
commission are given only praise,
while the Board of Public Welfare is
said to be carrying on its work so
successfully that the state will find it
impossible in the next few years to
avoid the expenditure of large sums
which are now being paid out or
which would have to be paid out if
county, municipal and private insti
tutions were not assisted te operate
more efficiently than in the past.
The Academy for the Blind, accord
ing to the experts, is operating econ
omically, but the management might
be more aggressive.
The Department of Public Printing
is sai ( i to have saved thousands of dol
tars, but eight distinct ways in which
-u riiier sayings, amounting to $20,-
000 to $25,000 a year may be made,
are pointed out.
One of the reports deals with office
-pace in the capitol building, and tlie
experts assert that the construction
of ,an annex is wholly unnecessary;
that if the available space is properly
allocated and used there will be plen
„y of room for all the agencies now
housed in the Capitol and also for the
State Board of Health and military
department, which are now quartered
in outside buildings. Specific recom
mendations as to just what use should
be made of each room in the Capitol
building are included in the report.
Gov. Hardwick said, at the time the
foregoing information was given out
that, while he does not agree with all
of the conclusions and recommenda
iiins of the experts, he is convinced
there are apportunities for large sav
ings without curtailing any necessary
activity now carried on by the state.
These savings, he declared, may
amount to as much as 10 or 15 per
cent, of the total cost of operating the
state government.
The study made by the experts has
only a few of the agencies
and he intimated that, in his message
to the Legislature, he will ask that
provision be made for a thorough
study of every department, board com
inssion, office and institution of the
state government in order that all
the leaks may be found and steps tak
en to stop them. The Governor stated
that the work already done in his of
fice to prevent the waste of the state’s
money has convinced him a well equip
ped auditing office is necessary to do
(he work properly, and said he will
urge the General Assembly to estab
lish an auditing and accounting of
fice to take over and extend the audi
ting work his office is now doing.
