The Governor received a fine ovation as ex-Governor Guild led cheers for Draper. He praised a bill uniting the State Board of Education with the Board of Industrial Education as one of the best passed, lauded the General Court, and noted vetoing seven bills while declining to sign many more. He called the eight hour bill an impure political measure and unconstitutional, and said the original eight hour law remains on the books.
