46 Document No. i. [Session
ted States, to enter upon any lands within tlie boundaries of
the State for the purpose of making the required surveys. I
am glad to make this recommendation. Similar acts have
been passed in many of the States of the Union in aid of the

in the discharge of our duty to the young criminals, who by
your action may be saved and made us'eful men.
