During the year 1916, there were

fl An Army of Notaries—The com
j missions of approximately 4,500
notaries public will be issued or re
newed during the forthcoming ses
sion of the state senate. Not much
time will be taken in acting upon
these commissions, it is true, but
they must be acted upon. There
may have been a time when notaries
public were few and far between,
and considered very Important ad
juncts to the state, and the practice
of having the senate pass upon them
probably dates from that time.
There are approximately 1,700 in
terim appointments of notaries to be
approved These are commissions
j issued since the rising of the last
I senate. In addition there will be
2,700 or 2,800 renewals or new com
missions, depending upon the length
of the session. The interim appoint
ments must be confirmed by the
senate and the commissions are then
renewed.
State Piipers—lf some legis
lator lias the nerve to Introduce a |
bill providing for an appropriation i
covering the cost, it may yet be pos- I
sible for the people of Pennsylvania 1
to know what the governors of this
state since the days of William A.
Sone have said in their official state
papers. Hut the beautifully bound
volumes titled "Papers of the Gov
ernor" cease with the administra
tion of Gov. Stone, consequently the
official pronunciumentas of Gover
nors Pennypacker, Stuart, Toner and
Brumbuugli remain hidden from the I
world in their original and unbeau
tiful form. For example, the bi
ennial report of the secretary of the
commonwealth, dated Dec. 1, 1918, J
credits Gov. Urumbuugh with 42 i
proclamation in 1918, up to Dec. 1]
] and 30 in 1917. During the preced- !
ing two years he issued thirteen,
making a total received by the seere- j
tary of the commonwealth of 85.;
But there were a number which did
not reach the secretary at all, so 1
that the present governor's total is
in the neighborhood of 110. These j
will all be available for studlouH
Pennsylvantans if some legislator I
will introduce and secure the pas- )
sage of a bill appropriating money i
for bringing "Papers of the Gover- .
uors" down to date. Usually 2,000 j
copies are issued, under the dlrcc- (
tion of the state librarian. "Papers •
of Governor" include all of the,
executives' messages and proclama-1
Hons. Governor Brumbaugh wrote
each proclamation himself in long
hand, usually in the library of the ;
executive mansion. With a long j
black cigar which he smoked fur-J
lously and constantly, Gov. Brum
baugh, attaches say, was lost to his
surroundings whilo he composed his
proclamations.
Supervisors to Report.—ln every
county in Pennsylvania except
Philadelphia, township supervisors
within a few days will begin the fil
ing of statements with the county
commissioners showing in detail I
their activities for the year which
ended December 31. These state-:
meats will show the amount of
money collected by the township
supervisors and the nmnner in which
it was expended. They deal almost

Illuminating commentary on the way
