Excerpt from Second Annual Report of the Bureau of Agriculture, Labor and Industry of Montana: For the Year Ended November 30, 1894 As "the proper study of Mankind is Man, so is the struct lire, development and relation of their constituent elements, and all conditions affecting the people of communities and commonwealths the proper study of all, especially of those who make, expound and administer the laws. This study is known as Social Science. Although comparatively new in its practical evolution and just coming into public appreciation, it is rapidly developing into and being recognized by the better intelligence of the world as one of the most important sciences auxiliary to good government and intelligent legislation. When a skillful physician is called to treat a patient, his first effort is to ascertain as precisely as possible what ailment exists and the conditions of the person to be treated. He then administers treatment accordingly. If instead of thus first carefully ascertaining the nature of the disorder from the patient, or those cognizant of I tie facts, he makes no inquiry relating thereto, nor has intelligent regard for the const it nation, characteristics or condition of the patient, but proceeds in a haphazard way be deluge his victim with the most convenient nostrums, the patient, if he survives to need subsequent treatment, is likely to seek it from other hands, and the off-hand practitioner will soon find public confidence materially abating. Legislative bodies are the physicians who minister to the ailments of the body politic. They should know its conditions and derangements as the medical practitioner should know those of the body corporeal. The ascertainment and presentation in intelligible and available form of the social and economic conditions of a state requires much time, patient and persistent investigation, and careful, methodic preparation. For special inquiries these duties are sometimes delegated by legislative bodies to committees of their own number, but for general investigations requiring much time, labor and statistical presentation of results experience has demonstrated committees are inadequate, and the result has been the institution of other agencies for that purpose. Chief of these are Labor Statistic Bureas, and a very large proportion of such duties have been devolved upon them. These Bureaus are of recent origin. It takes time as well as effort to establish and develop them in the several states, but their systems are being improved and perfected as rapidly as experience lights the way. and as the states have become familiarized with their objects and work, and the people with their methods, their usefulness has greatly increased. In some states their duties are limited to Labor and Industrial Statistics. In others additional duties have been devolved upon them. In few, if any, other states have these been so multifarious as in Montana. The scope and character of the duties of the Montana Bureau as defined, sometimes obscurely, by the Act creating it, and exemplified by the course pursued by other Bureaus in those particulars where the laws creating them were approximately similar, were set forth as the Commissioner understood them in the First Report of the Bureau. In laying out the work for the year 1894 he was still confronted with the fact that while this was established as The Immigration Bureau of the State, there had been no appropriation made to enable general and effective work in that direction, and it has been limited to disseminating such printed matter as was available, corresponding with those who applied to the Bureau, or whose letters to other persons were referred to it, and contributions to publications. Doubtless much benefit would result to the State by encouraging desirable immigration to Montana.
