Gentlemen of the Sen ile untl House of llep
resent stives ami Fellmo Citizens :
Called ly tlio people to perform, for
a time, ll.c functions of chief execu
tive of the State. 1 follow nn oil and
respected custom in briefly slating
some of the principles that will (guide
me in the administration of the office.
I would first rail attention to ilu
bountiful manner in which a kind
Providence has blessed our State and
and endowed its people with benefits.
We should never cease to make ureal
ful acknowledgment of Mis overshad
owing care. At periods like this there
is a peculiar fitness in a public recog
liition of the gisidness o. that Supreme
Being who has been ntir salcgunr.l
from calamity, and whose benefactions
have attended us with unceasing eon
stancy.
In the execution of tlie trust confi
ded to me by the people, it shall I c
my constant endeavor to ascertain
their will with accuracy, and carry it
out with fidelity. I\ r this purpose
I solicit the freest cominunica'ion be
tween the people and the executive,
and will diligently avail myself of
every facility which will tend to in
form mp of their wishes. It will lie
my solicitude to strengthen and con
form the public faith in Democratic in
stitutions by demonstrating, in the
sphere to which I have been appoin
ted, their aptitude for recording and
effecting the wishes of the people, t )ur
government was constituted to give di
rect and prompt recognition to expres
sions of the popular will.
I adopt, as of direct application to
the present lime,a sentence from I're-i
--deut .faeksoo's first inaugural, in which
be says: "The recent d moustration
of public sentiment ins rihes on the
list of executive duties, in characters
too lugihle to be overlooked the ta-k
of reform."
This tn.sk, clearly set before bim, the
present executive will zealously strive
to fulfil. Happily for him, there can
lie no doulit of the particular subjects
HS to which the public anxiety t• • r no
provement bits mamf-ted its<||.
These are well d< fined. The nietb -I
of neeompiisbment i a question for tie
legislative wisdom nlim itelv to delt r
mine. S i fur as the limits of an ad
dress like this will p. runt, lit m
briefly state a few of the subjects <0
needed reform.
I'lie |ieo|de demand the abolition of
tie b*s oHi- e-; the fixing of idfit-iiil
coiupen-ation at sums e immeiisoraie
with the service rend. re I by salaries
tlefioitely ascertained ; rigi>l aeeouuta
hi lity in the exjien lit ores ot
public moiievs ; a public perfor
mance of official trusts; nod the
raising of the efficiency of the civil ,r
vice by making fitness and iiitcgriti '
alone the tests for appointment.
The people demaoil strict economy
in tbeex|ieiiditure of moneys, a-implc
and business like conductt the nffuir
of government; and a repeal of all
lawn creating avenues for the ueedles
spetiding of public fumis at the .list-re
lion of officials.
The (ample demand that the bur
dens, as well u the lienefiis, of govern
merit shall lie distributed with fairness,
justness and impartiality 'I hey <l
mand uniformity ami simplicity in
taxation, and i s distribution in stub
a manner as that, while all bear their
just share nf the common burdens,
those shall contribute must who re
ceive most, ami those suffer bast who
can liear least. There is no more dif
fieult problem in govcrment than that
relating to taxation. Revenue must ;
be raised by the State for the efficient
conduct of its affairs. Care should be
taken, however, in the imposition of
taxes, that we do not loe sight of those
upon whom the imposition finally
rests. The hnnd that pays the tax
into the treasury is not always the j
hand that earned the contribution, j
That svstem is most equitable which,
recognizing this truth, so distributes
the taxing weight that none shall es
cape, and none liear more than their
just proportion. Our present system,
in its Htale, county and town-hip
ramifications, is intricate, unequal and
ill-digested. It is to la- hoped the pres
ent Legislature will devise some meth
od for a simpler and juster allotment
of thesa burdens.
I shall urge the general assembly
the passage of legislation necessary for
carrying into effect the provisions ol
the constitution of the State. The
benefits of some of the most salutary
sections of that instrument have not
been secured by the people,la-cause of.
the failure of the Legislature to jutes
the laws needed for its complete en
forcement. The care la-stowed hr
the convention in framing the consti
tution, and the large majority of votes
cast for il when tielbre the people lor
its adoption, rh old have inspired
their representatives in the assembly
to prompt act inn in passing the mens
urea need to give it full effect. I'itr
ticnlarly sle-uld this have been done
since the instrument itself enjoins thc
•Legislmure so to do. and their official
oat lis pledges diem to its support, obe*
dience and defense. When the ja-ople
adopter! the constitution they suctioned
its wisdom. It then la-came tho SU
prem law of the State, and ih • high
ml exposition of the will of the people,
I tissfrtiiincd in the must sticretl way
1 ! known to Democrat it: gnvei iiineiils.
I It. does not hei-outc the r-'priseniitiivns
I til lll>- p ople, to question or crude
| licit it law. Ilu ll' single duly is to
obey it.
So ne of the sections of the const it u
I lion from whieli most g< o I "n- i .xpee
ted, ami moot could hi- sculled, have
a-* yet yeilded no incisure ol henelii.or
left any visible ellbcl. This is paiticii
larly title ol article XVII ol' that in
struoient, regit lat iog rat I road and
I ritual companies, liy tut it consent, a
, construction of that article has la-en
acquiesced in by which the great cur
poiate bodies ol the State have cscap
cd its limitations, and been exctupied
I'ruin its provisions. Tht-y have viola
ted it constantly, defiantly and flag
in in ly. The people lire entitled io
have at least u lair trial made ot their
ability to bring the vast corporali-uis
tltey have treated and fostered under
| their just regulation and coniiol.
More than this is not contetidid lor in
article XVII ol the constitution. It
| commands nothing but what is r'-glil,
: lint forbids nothing lint w lint is cleat I v
j wrong. It simply requires corpora-|
: ions to act ju*tly, ami treat all the
( people alike, with unilbrmitv, tairm-s
i ind impartiality It prohibits unlair
' lisi riiiiinalion against |H-rsoiis or
! places, forbids extortion, ami seeks to
I prevent monopolies and compel the
I creatures of the law, who owe their
j breath to the people, to be law obedi- ;
j cut, and not use their granted powers I
ito harass ami oppress. The same ur
tiele specifically commands the le-gis
latil re to enforce its provisions by "'ap
propriate legislation." Surely an hon
est effort should he made to give
| adequate effect to so wi-e and just a
I section of the fundamental law.
j litis leads me to snv that, in my
i judgment, there i. much to liedoiie, in
j the way of legislation, to prevent the
(lower of corporations t'roui hecmniiig
' too vast ami irresponsible. Tin v are
