INTRODUCTORY.
T O the Executive Department of the State is committed the active administration of public affairs. Called into existence by the legislative department, it is subject to the limitations fixed by law, and to the interpretations of the law by the judiciary of the state.
Beginning with the appointment of Governor Arthur St. Clair, by the Congress in October, 1787, this department (of that territory which is now the state of Ohio) has been graced and dignified by the services of some of the most honored names in the history of the American Republic.

THE GOVERNOR.
SKETCH OF THE GOVERNOR.
G EORGE K. NASH, the present Governor of Ohio, (see part I facing page 7) was born in Medina County, August 14, 1842. His early life was spent on the farm where his parents settled after emigrating from Massachusetts. His early education was obtained at the district schools of his township, where he prepared for college, entering Oberlin at the age of twenty. During his sophomore year at this institution the great struggle between the North and South had reached a crisis, and like many of the patriotic youth of his time, he felt it his duty to respond to the call to arms. Accordingly he enlisted as a private in the 150th O. N. G., serving with his characteristic integrity and thoroughness until discharged. Immediately after the close of the war, he began the study of law, and in 1867 was admitted to the Bar.
Since that time his career as a lawyer has been one of steady advance- ment and increasing renown. In 1870 he was elected Prosecuting Attor- ney of Franklin County and at the end of the term was chosen to suc- ceed himself. In 1877 he was the Republican candidate for Attorney General, and though defeated with his party, he made a gallant fight. In 1879 he again ran for the same office and was elected. Four years later he was re-elected, thus holding the important and honorable position of Attorney General for a period of four years. Further and higher honors awaited him. In 1883, Governor Foster, who while Chief Executive during Attorney General Nash's two terms had been his warm friend and supporter, appointed him a member of the Supreme Court Commis- sion, which body was created to aid the Supreme Court in completing unfinished work. This commission sat for two years and when its work was finished, Judge Nash, as he then became known, returned to the prac- tice of the law.
Although taking a great interest in politics and doing much work for his party in various capacities, the duties of his profession consumed by far the greater portion of his time. In the campaign of 1899 he became a candidate for nomination for Governor, and at the convention held in Columbus in the following June was successful, being nominated on the second ballot by 461 votes out of a total of 820 cast. The following November, after a spirited and interesting campaign, he was elected Governor by a plurality of 49,000 votes.
THE OFFICE OF GOVERNOR.
The Constitution of Ohio provides that "The supreme executive power of the state shall be vested in the Governor."
(324)
.
325
THE OHIO HUNDRED YEAR BOOK.
The Governor.
He is elected by the people for a term of two years. He must be an elector and not hold any other office under the authority of the State or the United States. In case of death, removal or other disability, the Lieutenant Governor shall execute the office of Governor. The Gov- ernor must see that the laws are faithfully executed and may request of the executive officials reports of their respective departments. He may convene the General Assembly upon extraordinary occasions.
At every session of the General Assembly he must report the con- dition of the state by message, recommending therein such legislation- as may to him seem proper. He may convene the General Assembly upon extraordinary occasions. He may adjourn it in case of disagreement upon this subject between the two branches thereof.
The Governor is Commander-in-Chief of the army and navy and custodian of the Great Seal of the State.
He may grant reprieves, commutations and pardons.
Such briefly, are the constitutional provisions relating to the Chief Executive. It will be observed that the customary veto power is with- held.
In addition to the powers conferred and duties imposed upon the Gov- ernor by the Constitution, are those which the General Assembly has seen fit to provide by statute, and it is through these that the greater portion of the actual duties of this office arise, and most of the appointive powers of the Governor. As Commander-in-Chief of the army and navy, it seems appropriate that he should appoint the Adjutant General, and the sixteen other members of his military staff.
There are certain state officers not created by the Constitution whose chief incumbents are named by the Governor and by and with the advice and consent of the Senate appointed. Such are the Commissioner of Insurance, Commissioner of Railroads and Telegraphs, Commissioner of Labor Statistics, Inspector of Workshops and Factories, Chief Mine In- spector, State Fire Marshal, Chief Examiner of Stationary Engineers, State Pension Claim Agent, and Chief Engineer of Public Works.
There are numerous commissions, such as the Canal Commission, Shiloh Battlefield Commission, and Fish and Game Commission, contain- ing from two to seven members each, with terms varying from one to five years, have been created by law. Here vacancies are constantly occurring to be filled by the Governor, who is frequently called upon when the General Assembly provides for some new commission, to appoint an entire board.
The Governor is ex-officio the President of the State Board of Chari- ties, composed of six members, who are appointed for a term of three years. This Board exercises a general supervision of the State institu- tions, and is of valuable aid to the Governor in overseeing the numerous large state properties. There are thirteen benevolent, two penal and

The Governor.
two corrective institutions in this state. Each of these is managed by a board of trustees, composed of six members appointed by the Governor by and with the advice and consent of the senate for a term of five years.
Recurring to the duties of this office, we find the Governor, of neces- sity, a busy man. The actual duties of the office occupy much of his time, while the constant and pressing demands made by the general public leave him few spare moments. He must examine, pass upon and issue requisition papers, investigate applications for pardons, commutations and reprieves, certify under the Great Seal of the State as to the official character of numerous state and county officials; upon application com- mission notaries public and commissioners of deeds, and, with few ex- ceptions, commission all elective officers, both civil and military. He must attend board meetings, counsel heads of departments, maintain a general supervision of all the great state institutions, examine, approve and sign numerous state papers, preside at public meetings, answer requests for all and any information, hear and dispose of complaints against individuals and institutions, and keep a constant watch over the affairs of state. All of this entails the keeping of numerous records, the assorting and filing of many papers and constant attention to a large correspondence. To aid him in his work the Governor has a Private Sec- retary, three clerks and a messenger.

THE LIEUTENANT -GOVERNOR.
OHN A. CALDWELL was born in Fair Haven, Preble county, Ohio, April 1, 1852. He received a common school education in his native village, supplemented by a course in mathematics and Latin. He graduated from the Cincinnati Law School in 1876, and taught school during the fall and winter of 1877, and in the spring of 1878 entered upon the practice of law in Cincinnati. Mr. Caldwell was elected prose- cuting attorney in 1881 and again re-elected in 1883. In 1885, Judge Fitzgerald, a man of great popularity, defeated Mr. Caldwell for police judge of Cincinnati, but in 1887 he, in turn, defeated Judge Fitzgerald for the same office. Before he completed his term as police judge, he was elected to represent the Second Ohio district in Congress. He was re- elected in 1890 and 1892.
As congressman from the Second district, he was conspicuous as an advocate of all measures to protect the workingmen, and afford justice and relief to the soldiers. He strongly advocated the eight-hour bill, under the provision of which government contractors are prevented from forcing their men to work more than eight hours. He is the author of the bill to prevent the desecration of the American flag, and also of the Anti- Lottery bill. He made the favorable report that secured the enactment of the Car Coupler law, requiring all railroad companies to adopt safety couplers on all trains engaged in interstate commerce. He successfully
(329 )

The Lieutenant-Governor.
advocated the reclassification of the various postal employes, under which all railway postal clerks and letter-carriers are now working. He took a firm stand against the employment of convict labor on government contracts, and was the author of a bill to require all prison-made goods, of whatever character, to be stamped, so as to show where and in what prison they were manufactured. While Judge Caldwell was serving his third term in Congress he was unanimously elected Chairman of the Congressional Campaign Committee.
When it became necessary to Republican success in Cincinnati that the party select as its candidate for mayor the strongest possible man before the people, Judge Caldwell was nominated to head the municipal ticket, and he patriotically put aside his congressional career, and was elected mayor of Cincinnati.
The Washington correspondent of the Ohio State Journal, writing of the Lieutenant-Governor, says, "He should have remained in Congress where he was establishing a career of usefulness and ability."
The office of Lieutenant-Governor was created by the second Con- stitution of Ohio (1851) by which he is made the President of the Senate, (at the nominal salary of $800 per annum) with power to vote in that body only in the event of a tie. In case of the death, resignation, or disability of the Governor, he becomes. his successor for the remainder- of their mutual term, or until his successor is elected and qualified.

THE PRIVATE SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNOR.
F REDERICK N. SINKS, Private Secretary to Governor Nash, was born in Columbus, August 24th, 1872. His early education was obtained at the public schools of that city. Later he attended pre- paratory schools, where he fitted himself for college, entering Yale Uni- versity in the year 1890, and being graduated there from in 1894.
Soon after he entered the Law School of the Ohio State University, completing his course in June, '98, when he was admitted to the bar.
While pursuing his legal studies, and subsequent thereto, he was under the tuition of Governor Nash, being associated with him in his law office.
During this time a warm personal friendship grew up between them, which resulted in the appointment of Mr. Sinks as Secretary. In June, 1899, Mr. Sinks married Miss Katharine Thurman, of Columbus.

PRIVATE SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNOR.
The duties of the private secretary to the Governor are, as the name implies, of a personal rather than a public character. The official com- pensation of $800.00 per annum is but a partial compensation for the importance of the position. The following list of private secretaries is apparently incomplete, as no sufficient record exists prior to 1867 of the gentlemen who acted in this capacity.

THE ADJUTANT - GENERAL.
T HE department of the Adjutant-General is, as its name implies, the headquarters of the National Guard of Ohio, of which the Governor is ex-officio Commander-in-Chief. Under the law, the Adjutant-General is appointed by the Governor for a term of two years, ranks as Brigadier-General, and is, by virtue of his office, the Inspector- General and Chief of Staff. He is Superintendent of the State Capitol building and grounds, under a comparatively recent law by which the office of Superintendent was abolished and merged into the office of the Adjutant-General. In time of peace, the Adjutant-General also performs the duties of the Quartermaster-General, unless otherwise ordered by the Commander-in-Chief.
