them with renewed energy and the ilia debate of the measures before the hauae was as at once reh resumed umed 1 quite a number of visitors listened to the proceedings in n both houses today the last day lias tea armed arrived and I 1 the business bo sines la Is becoming ills excellency the governor continues to display bis his veto power today the following veto was sent to the council with the returned 0 r F 25 the bill billon on which mr richards had I 1 I 1 1 14 1 4 U I 1 ebent considerable time to perfect hon S F 1 Kichar lic hards df preset of the cincil SIK sr I 1 return be herewith reIth C F I 1 no 0 o 25 entitled 11 an act authorize autho the esl atols of decedents dece dents minors inane insane h or incompetent persons to be a mort graced or leaned in certain caws I 1 confess that I 1 have not been able to fee cay my way clear in in regard to this art se sea on the one bide side it is arced urged that there way maybe be el special recial cases in in which the auth authority crity to mortgage and lease ilia estades of decedents dece dents minors and insane versions pei could be beneficially used on the other bide side it Is tinged u gad tit that at the administration of estate estates under the direction of the probate court is at be beet st een expensive sive that tho the court is in a authorized athor iz and invariably does make a monthly provision for the family of the debes d wife and minor children the payment of which takes precedence of the claims of creditors this title provision is measured by the needs of the family rather than by t the lie quan quantum turn of the estate that the act before me may tend to prolong the ret Pet lement of estate ii and if the tile p nod rind of administration is is lone long small estate estates not angina ly in insolvent so avent will become BO so almost inverso invariably aad and both befit heirs and credi creditors bo be deprived of what bat the law intended them to take by the very machinery for effectuating their th air rights that the tile administrator or executor had already the th po power to lease the real estate of the tit decedent d e ce dent BO so long as the administration continues where the rents of of such real estate are needed for the tire payment of debts or expenses contemplated tem plated by the new act that the tile 11 same Ill ile power er of leasing leang exists in lie tile guardian of a minor L i a leases which will determine on the minor arriving at majority if it the ilia act contemplates the making of lea es which will w ill bind the estate a after ter the administration is closed or alter after the ilia minor attains his majority and is entitled to the mata management gement of ins his own property as it seems to do I 1 am decidedly deci eally of the opinion that it is against thi th i well settled settle ct policy of the law if it it simply contemplates lie tile leasing during the administration or guardianship I 1 am afraid it is an e expensive x method of doing what list can bo be cheaply done dune und T existing laws it if it is is not too late and it is deemed to be necessary to take some action I 1 suggest it if a mortgage mort naRo is 13 an all theorized zed it should be lim limited I 1 led to the purpose of paying do debts abts the payment rl t of winch which may be enforced enor ced before is and that a provision ba inserted that a mortgage should not riot delay cl oring the tire administration and that llie the distribution of the estate auld be nude made subject i t to the tile mortgage with respect M to the h a pow er to lease authority cou could id be given to made a good lease for ole 01 e year without the expense of the pr proceedings 0 ce contemplated bontemp abed by this act I 1 am very respectfully respectful lyp ARTHUR L THOMAS governor some of the suggestions made by the governor relative to the free school bill have been embodied in the bill and it has been sent bak back to
