Third State of the Union Address

Benjamin Harrison's Third State of the Union Address is a speech by the American lawyer and politician who served as the 23rd president of the United States from 1889 to 1893. Excerpt: "The reports of the heads of the several Executive Departments required by law to be submitted to me, which are herewith transmitted, and the reports of the Secretary of the Treasury and the Attorney-General, made directly to Congress, furnish a comprehensive view of the administrative work of the last fiscal year relating to the internal affair. It would be of great advantage if these reports could have an alternative perusal by every member of Congress and by all who take an interest in public affairs."
