and the reduction of the value of premiums offered for pen drawing. They 
would further advise that suitable premiums be offered for first-class wa¬ 
ter-color drawings; also medals and favorable notice, etc., for designs of 
buildings, and the industrial arts; one class for artists, and one class for 
students and amateurs; also premiums offered for models in clay or plas¬ 
ter, by art workmen, of industrial art objects, etc. 
Your committee believe that by following out, and completing this line 
of hasty suggestions, much may be done to advance the interests of the 
Industrial and fine arts in the state, and to stimulate to honest and pains¬ 
taking efforts the artists, art-workmen and students in art industries— 
in whose interest particularly these suggestions are made—and tend to 
make this department in future more worthy of its name and its important 
position in your exhibitions. 
In closing this report we would thank the gentlemen to whose labors in 
this department the success of the art department is largely due; also the 
public spirited citizens who have loaned valuable art works for exhibition. 
We feel assured that all will be rewarded in the very decided success of 
this exhibition, and be incited to future exertion and aid in the interest of 
this department. Mrs. A. MITCHELL,
