With cordial greeting I welcome you, on your coming to gether at the State Capital.

And it gives me pleasure to say that the people of Oregon have not been unmindful of these blessings. Everywhere within our borders the hand Of industry has wrought dili gently, and a rapid development of all the material resources of our State has been the result. And as the servants of the people, and for the time being the custodians of their inter ests, it becomes our duty to exercise the powers thus conferred upon us in such manner as shall do the. Greatest good to the people whom we represent.
