“The department has accomplished
a great work In seeing that the laws

“When I took charge of the office

was a dead letter, and had been for

What It may have t<> say to the leg
islature next summer will be merely
advisory. and in no way mandatory.
The road will not be disposed of as
to Its future by the present legislature

that the way may be cleared up com
pletely. however, for the I*og1s ature that

day many times what It cost, und will
continue to enhance In value an the

likely upon terms fur more advanta

next week and the following week

Hackett probably will remain in At

It is understood that the change
from road show's to stock companies
will he made In several of the Jake
