INCOME TAX IS ADVOCATED Temperance Matter of Personal Dis cipline, bat Saloons Should Be Limited Plethora or CommJs stoxia Causes Sarcasm. LANSING. Mich.. Jan. 8. Governor Chase 8. Oeborn, of Michigan, submitted his first message to the Legislature to day. More than 40 recommendations are made, covering a wide range, among which the most Important are: Placing express companies under con trol "of ths Stats Railroad Commission. Fare of IS cents for passeiVers north of the Straits of Mackinac. Mining royalty and Income tax, also income tax for corporations The initiative and referendum and re call. On the liquor Question the Governor says: Temperance Is a matter of personal discipline and Is more of a moral and nrl.l nmhlom than OolltlCal Question. "Government by saloon and ewe must go. In communities wnere saioons exist there should not be more than one to 1000 population and breweries should be divorced from their ownership. -Michigan seems to have a weakness for state boards;" continues the Governor. "It Is true the state has yet no trustees of wash basins or tooth brushes, but If we keep on as we are going, there will be nothing from fish-eyes to fox-tails that will not be supervised by a board." OREGOX PLAN KECOM JIEXDED Governor Foss Recommends Pro gressive" Measures In Message. BOSTOJf. Jan. S. Direct nominations and direct legislation were strongly urged in the first message delivered by Governor Foss after his Inauguration to day. He said: "We have reached a crisis in the af fairs of this commonwealth. It is a crisis which our lorm of government Is facing today not only In Massa chusetts but in every state of tho Union. Thia crisis is all the more marked In our state because Massa chusetts Is the birthplace of popular government. The people In all sections of the country have lost confidence In many of their public servants. The dictatorship by political bosses and by representatives of special Interests is hotly resented, for these men desire to control public servants and to direct legislation to their own ends. "This usurpation of power can only be ended by the people taking into their own hands the direction and control of their government. The first step is to abolish the boss and all hs agencies, the caucus, the nominating convention and all political machinery which in tervenes between the people and the government. All candidates for public office, without exception, must be chos en by the people through the direct primary. To that direct primary must be Joined tha power of recall, so that any public servant who proves recre ant to his trust may be immediately dismissed Governor Foss then said labor should be exempt from unfair injunction re strictions, that compensation of labor should be above a bare living and that the hours of labor should be rigidly defined and limited. Home rule for cities was advocated and the recommendation was made that an municipalities within a radius of ten miles be connected Into a great er Boston, organized on the borough plan. "The use of money In our elections has become a great evil." said the Gov ernor, "for it amonnts to a substantial denial of the privileges of a man of moderate means to aspire to any pub llo office In ths commonwealth: or else it overwhelmingly tempts him to make his secret peace with those private In terests which will finance his cam paign if he will serve them in office. To correct this evil it la necessary to prohibit those methods of campaigning which cost so much money." The Governor recommended legisla tion calling for the popular nomination of United States Senators. COTERXOR BASS IS RADICAL "Progressive" Xevr Hampshire Ex ecutive Is Inaugurated. CONCORD, N.

E. In his mes sage to the Indiana Legislature today. Governor Thomas R. Marshall told the members "to be careful of the man who wanted to show them a good time the day after he had been Introduced," and also beware of the "high flyer."
