Tho financial recommendations of tho messugo aro of an extremely cau tious and non-committal kind. Last year in order to meet extraordinary demands upon tho TrcuMire for expen ditures to which tho Stuto had been committed by previous action of the Legislature a heavy dralt was mado upon the sinking fund revenue. Two- thirds ot tlio corporation tax was swept into tho general fund to bo paid out for current expenses. . At the samo time it waa provided that for tho year 1877 only one third ot this tax should be so appropriated. Tbo withdrawal of this aourco of increased revenue is likely to create a famine in the Treasury for the current year. The Governor, however, whilo warning tho Legislature that he will veto appropriations in excess ot probable revenue, does not venture to advise either new taxation or a further ruid upon tho sinking fund. Herein he shows n timidity that is riot likely lo be shared by the majority in tin present Lcgislutnro unless there has been a marked change in tho charac ter ol Iladical representatives. His hesitancy may cost tho State dear in tho end. Tho failuro to mark out a eleur path toward a desirod financial policy generally results in costly legis lative c.Hriincnls. The Pennsylvania system bl collect ing revenue is to abstain from direct dealing with taxpayers and employ an agency to gather in the tnxos. The Slate taxes its agents, which aro the corporations, and tho corporations tax the people, lly the operation of the Constitution Iho corporations aro in some particulars protected Irom un equal taxation, but tho tux upon divi deiids, with A resort to an appraise ment of stock where no dividends are .lcciarcu or earned, ts lound to worn a COuntry, and lor that mutter through practical exemption from taxation in oia tuo dviliwd world. Ho lives in sonic cases. 1 ho Governor proposes to remedy this by a partial reinstate ment, of the old system of taking gross receipts, If bo bad recommended a eompleto return to this standard of taxation for corporations ho would have exhibited wisdom. Il is the cqoituhlo method. Tho only reason that it is not enforced is that tho cor porations have a remedy forinequalitv . They mako Iho people with whom they deal repay them lo tbo uttermost penny. A tax upon gross receipts would, in the first instance, be much more fairly distributed. That part of the messago relating to bank and saving funds as well as the more ordinary and usual topics of communication to th Legislature will In tho main commend itsell to at tention and approval. Perhaps the most objectionable fea ture of the message is, not tin abso lute recommendation in regard to tbe appropriations for and management of the public schools, but tbo insidious ap proval of tho proposition that it is the business of tbe Stuto to assumo the function of public education lo tho ex clusion of private undertakings. Thu Governor apparently would bavo the State make education compultory and in tho furtherance of this idea step bu. Iwecn the parent and child, demand ing thai whether or no tho latter be trained according to a prescribed sys tern. This is flat heresy. Education as a free offering on tho part of the Stulp is a beneficence. But a State in telligence, or a Htato religion, or Slate politics aro not things comprehended within the scope ot liepublican govern ment. Education needs nothing more lo commend it than the advantage it bestows upon its possessor. Tho suc cess ol our common school system is ono of tho best proofs of this axiom. Whenever the Slule ventures beyond tlio lino of a voluntary system It tivads upon dangerous ground. The result of such a policy would bo in the end cumbrous und costly experlmont which could not endure tinder our present political system. The superlative stylo in which tho messago treat of some of tho general topic considered i a new feature in thu message of the present executive and nf doubtful tasto. But tha end ol the first century of national existence and the triumphs of il international celebration afford somo scopo for meta phor which will not pffond tbe pa triotic reader.
