THS INAUGURATION.
Robert F. Pattis n was inausru atrd
Governor of Ponnsylvahit, Toes.lay
the lGt instant. It was the fi st inau;*
uration of a Democratic G lvuruor in
this sta'e since Jan 1 <th U S, when
Win F. Packer was sworn iat a orlice.
Pattison's inauguratfon was a severely
1 lain, practical anil common-ser.se af
fair. The new Governor gave even
some offense in certain quarters l>y his
decided refusal to be escorted and pa
raded around by brass bands, political
or military organizations of any name
or kind. The youthful Governor walk
ed from the depot to his lodgings and
from there to the capitol. The people
of all parties will give him much credit
for setting a precedent showing how
plainly and with what litt'e expense a
Governor or a great state can be in
stalled into i flice, ard care far more
that the new Governor should p *rform
his duties faithfully, than to have a
brilliant but expensive and utterly use
less demonstration made over his in
auguration.
The Governor's address gives every
reason to expect an honest, able and e
conomical administration. We regret
very much that we can not publish it
entire, but will give its more prominent
features.
Judge Turnkey admioiistered the
oath of cfiice to Governor Pattison,
who kissed the book. The Governor
then read bis inaugural address which
occupied him the ietter part of thirty
minutes. His voii o was clear and dis
tinst, but the crowd was much more
curious to see than to hear, and the
cU, raw air of the winter day was
such that very few beyond those near
the speaker could hear. The thickly
picked mass ot people on the steps and
below kept its plac<\ how v r, thr u:h
out the delivery. There was no dem
onstration till the ch-se, when the Gov
ernor returned to the Executive ofike,
amidst the cheers of the crowd and the
renewed booming of the cannon.
THE INAUGURAL ADDRESS.
GENTLEMEN OF THE SENATE AND
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES AND
FELLOW-CITIZENS : Called by the peo
ple to per form, for a time, the func
tions of Chief Executive of the State,
I follow an old and respected custom
i i briefly stat ing soma of the principles
th it will guide me in the administra
tion of the office.
I wauld first call attention to the
bountiful manner in which a kind
pi evidence has blessed our State and
endowed its people with benefits. We
should never cease to make grateful
acknowledgment of His overs adow
ing care. At periods like this there is
a peculiar fitness in a public recogni
tion of the goodness of tiiat Supreme
Being who has been our sa f egua <?
from calamity and whose benefactions
have attended i s with unceasing con
*rnncy, In the execution of the trust
confi ied to me by the people it shall be
my constant endeavor to ascertain
their will with accuracy and carry it
out with fidelity. For this purpose I
s -licit the freest communication be
tween the psopld and the Executive,
and will diligently avail myself of ev
ery facility winch will tend to inform
me of their wishes. It will be my sol
icitudo to strengthen and confirm the
publ c faith in democratic institutions
by demonstrating, in tlis sphere to
which I have been appointed, their ap
titude for recording and effecting the
wishes of the people. Our government
was constituted to give direct and
prompt recognition to expression of the
popular will.

1 shall urge upon the General Assembly t.hp
pa-save of iegl-tatlon necessary for o i'T>ing in
t effeet the proMsauis >f the Cons'lt-ntt'ii of
t' e state. The Kujetits >t some of the most sa

mea-ures needed to gsve it full effect. Fllrtl

stt ument itself enjoins the I egts)utu\> so to do.
and their opaeial <<;;t! s pledge th in '<> its sap

adopted tl* Constitution they sun tinned its
w'l-dom. It tlms bee.iiiu* Ctc -uprema law of

way known to democratic governments. It
docs not become the rpn s-n'atives ot_ the
peopie t<. qji. mor ovule such a taw . '! L* ir
smg'c tiut\ ;s t,> otvy it.
HOW (OK! ORATIONS HAVE ESP A TED.
H ur.e of tlie sections of the Constitution from
which most good wasexmvtcd and most could
tie semi fed have as \t yieh!el t.o m'*a v ure of
benefit or left any vj -it>(• effect. This is parti
ouhitty true of article 17 of that instrument, re
yarning railroad uid canal compautcs By '.n it
const*ut a construction of that aittcl** has been
acqtiicse Ml,in by whi li the great corporate !> >-
dies o| tfie State iiaxe esi'.tped its lim.ta'pitis
and IHT a exempted fri>ni its provisions, t hey
have violat at it constantlv. defiantly and t'.ag
rantiy. The people are entitled to have at least
a fair trial made of their ability to bring the
vast corporations they have create I and fost
ered untie their just regulation and control.
More th ii this is not contended for in article
trof th* Constitution. It rontutamis notliinx
but what is e'.eariy wrong. It simply requires
corporations to act ju-t!v and treat .It the
; eople a ike, with nnt? rmity, fairness and im
arti iiits. it proiiit'iis unfair dis• riminatioii
against |>er-oneor places, forbids extortion and
seeks to prevent monopolies and eo upel the
cre**nres of the law, who owe ti.e.r breatli t i
the people, to I g law otiedient and not use tlp'ir
•. ran ed power- to harass at d oppress. The
same article specifieady commands the Legis
lature to enforce i:s provisions by "appropriate
legislation."' surely an honest effoit should t> ->
made to give adequate eff**ct to so w i-e and ju-t
a section of the fuiidannuital law.
THE POWER Or COEI'OHATIOfC*.
This loads me to say that, in my judgement,
there is much to tv done in the way of legisla
tion to prevent the power of corporation* from
becoming too vnst and Irresponsible They air
a new element in our modern civilization.
They have outgrown the most sanguine expect
ation in He ir develop.mcnt ai d have Intro
(Sliced new cvjs as well as new benefits into
our system. Their influence h is extended tisslf
into almost every d p irtnent of business and
of life. 1 heir motions not only affect the gir d
centres of money and of trade, but the minut
est affairs of individuals are affected by their
cap!ice. Thousands of laborer- look to them
for employment and depend alone upon th ir
ciete mination for the measure of hire. The
prices of the necessaries of life, too, ..re often
reguluted by their will. All this is an exldbi
ticn of |>ow J* r not contemplated in their crea
tion. which, had in view solely the pu 'iic inter
est and general goal. The existence of such
power in any combination of men is to be de
plored snd. if possible, prevented, or at least
regulated and controlled it is idle to lament
this condition of a (lairs unless something is
done to correct it. Corporate lawlessness must
be made as amenable to punishment us person
al law lessness.
For the government to shut its yes and elo-e
its ear> to the complaints and petitions of any
body of its citizen* is folly. Such a coin s * cor
rects nothing and settles nothing. Particularly
should heed bo jven to the appeals <♦ so large
and import ir.t a pari of thee immunity as those
depending for subsistence upon the wages of
toil, LaUir is the nn in pillar ot the *tuto As
an honored statesman of our own country has
>a:d : "Labor is tbe superior of c s;<ft.i and de
S'.'rves much the highest consideration." Hut
t he consideration given to su- h matter- should
le deliberate and searching and the relief tho
rough and systematic, it it i- to be lasting and
effectual. 1 cannot but indulge the bel.of that
on.r political system 1* capable f providing some
other remedy than the bayonet for the settle
ment opsu' h disputes. Our form of government
1 have no doubt, is competent to deal with th*s
matter fairly ami effectively, without injustice
to the rights or interests of either party to the
controversy. Upon the wisdom of the Legisla
tive Department rests, in the first instance, the
responsimlity for a proper solution of this ques
tion.
The Assembly has also failed to enforce bv
appropriate legislation a number of other pro
visions of the Constitution and pa-s laws the
enactment of which is enjoined by that instru
ment.
The salaries of certain Judges of the Com
monwealth have not been fixed by tin* Legis.a
ture, am! they have lieen receiving coniiHnsa
tion a most without authority of law and by the
[ sufferance of the accounting "officers.
THE APPi IXTMEST QUBSHON.
The Assembly ai its ia-t session, though pro
-1 longed beyond precedent, and at great expense
to the Common"eaith, failed to apporfio . the
State into I cgislutive and Congressional dis
tricts, thou, h the Constitution comm-iml* that
such apportionment shall IK* made "immediate
1. after each Unfted stat"s decennial census."
There was not even an attempt made to obey
this injunction. Such default is inexcusable.
It is the duty of tie* present Legislature to
promptly pe. form this neglected duty.. The
Assembly will not b* called to act upon a mere
important measure dining it- session than that
of the apportionment, ft touches govern incut
in its most vital parts. Fair ar.d jast represent
ation to;. 11 sections of lb** State underlies the
whole fabric of our pol;l al system. It is tim
corner-stone <d our government. Considera
tions of party, of .actions, of locality or of >ndi-
YiduaN have nothing to do with the subject of
apportionment. This duty .should lie JM-J form
ed by the Legislature upon uniform and just
principles.
A POOR OFTI.OOK FOP. CRIMINALS.
The exercise of the paidotting power by the
Executive has b *en th*' su' jc t of mucii public
criticism. Nor is this recent only. So great had
lavonie ti;e popular c anplain' that the cttnven
tion which framed the CoiiKlitution attempted
to covrtct what was admitted b> bean ahu-c by
creating a board for hearing of appllci'lons for
pardon, whose judgement should be submitted
to the Executive for his n;-istaiice in determin
ing the merits of such nap Rations Such a
plan ought to result in fuller and more careful
consldeiations and decisions mare in accord
ance with the di dates of justice and humanity
I do not believe, however, that the I anion
Board was intended t< he a court of last resort
for reviewing the 1< cality of the jadgements of
the caurfs b *!ow and their decisions up -n pojn's
of law and the weight of evidence. Our system
of iudicalu'.e, with it a Ju-t:ces, juries. Judges
and Supreme Court., provides the proper tribu
nals for the trial f causes, and lias the confi
dence of tre community. Their judgdoumntK
should not be lightly treated or disturbed with
out overwhelming reason. The Pardon Board
is not a court for the trial of questions tf law or
of fact ft lias become a truism, that it is not
the severi'v, so much astir* certainty.of punish
ment which prevents wrong-doing. This cert
ainty cannot be secured if it is understood by
criminals that after their eases hate been fairly
beard and pas ed upon by every court known
to the law they must still experiment with the
sympathy and various judgements of a mixed
board of lawyers and aymen. I shall grant no
pardon except for cause appearing since the
trial and in c .ses of manifest injustice.
A HHJOHT FCTt'KE.
T look forward with bright anticipation to the
future o. our Commonwealth. Her nossibt ities
are great beyond t hose of almost any of her
sister States." Let it always be remembered by
aft citizens that inlellig nice and virtue are the
safeguards of libera! institutions. The law must
b-.* preserved in its integrity .and supremacy;
ci'iz *i ship should not. b * treated as a light pri
vilege. but its duties shouM be made a serious
in liter of conscientious performance; the putfty
of our elect ons must be sacredly preserved,
and all mike should feel a personal interest in
discharging their obligations to the Stale and
sustaining the ofii-ers of the la w Jn the faithful
ami just performance of their funcions. It will
alwavs be mv pleasing duty to a > operate with
the representatives of the people in giving val
idity to enactments whose object is the dissem
ination of information, the promotion of the
general well/a:v. the placiug of additional saG-
SnArd'? arennl npright or th pimishmtAt
or restraint of the lawless and vicious. In short
whatever will tend to develop the resources, in- |
ciease the comforts ov enlarge the happtnens |
and prosperity of the citizens of tho Stale,
which has been alike loitunale in Its location
una the wise policy of its foundei, should re

port of every one who is called upon to make,
expound, execute or ohcy laws.
