This la not a rare occasion. Ninety times since independence waa proclaimed bat this oath been taken before bled electors of New Jersey. I baa followed blessing In the years gone by. A bountiful prosperity is ours today, and tbe future la rich with promise. Prom a feeble colony we have become a po' ful common wealth and a potent Influence la tbe destiny of tbe nation. Serious, then, tbe task and solemn the duties he assumes who accepts this office at tbe hands of tbe people and asks tbe guidance of Almighty God In tbs work before him. Happily .he way is not unknown. Tbe constitution of our stats wisely divides tbe powers of government Into three distinct depanraenta—legislative, executive and Judicial. It provides that no person belonging to one of these departments shall exercise powers that encroach upon another. The executive and legislative functions are clearly defined- 1 believe the Interest of good government demands that they should be kept dearly distinct. It la tbe duty of the Igglslsture to enact legislation. The executive should not presume upon the legislature In Its functions, nor should the legislature avoid Its duty or shift Its responsibility by assumed •ubm.ajuon to executive will. As governor of tuts stats I shall not assume the responsibility of enacting legislation. Per that, gentlemen of the legislature, you must bold yourselves accountable to tbe people wbe elect you. Tills does not mean that we shall not co-operate and set In harmony. The constitution provides that ' of this state may reconii legislative body such meas- ■ as 'Will. In his opinion, conduce to the public welfare 1 shall from time to Urns, as necessity arises, freely exercise that executive privilege. 1 shall at all times freely consult with the members of your body as to the needs of the people of the state and aa to the character of the lagfUUog Which Will.bed promote the prosperity and program ok our beloved oommenwealth. In this exercise of our mutual duties differences of opinion will undoubtedly arise. It Is well that they should Discussion la a good thing and leads to wisdom and truth. In cases at this kind I shall endeavor to persuade you to aee the light aa 1 aee It. but

la tbe work before us let us remember that ours Is a government by tbs people aad far tbs people Tbs people have exercised their powers la aelectlng ua as their agents; It now N Justify their trust by affairs ot the state for the peopte aad for them only. Tbs

year the balance la the treasury sd to SLMO.na.M. Tbs ordinary raaelpts for tbe same year amounted to M.WMTM1. of which nearly 7R per cent, or IS.tel.mffi. came from railroads corn pan lee domiciled la entire income of the | penny was contributed directly by the

benefit and In tbelr

the Insane, supporting our prisons and refermmtoriee. educating tbe young generaUuna, developing a magnificent road system. maintaining the state government aad courts of Justice, all of which would be a burden upon the taxpayers except for our prsdeai fiscal policy. Last year out of every *100 expended by the state |2Z was given to the taxpayers, 9>-M for ed II IS Iter. |ffi for ebarteiee and oorredUpn», w fof mllltte, « tbr public roadp. KAO for Us courts. tUO for the veterans and H ID for agriculture. To this extent did (ha people OU* Benefit* from tbe state treasury without eoatributlng thereto. To ha\V raised teat Vdar : by direct

have Imposed upon property a lax rate of more man four-tenths, or nearly one-half, of 1 per cent. To hays raised the amount that comas from railroads and corporagons alone would have Imposed upon property a tax rate of more than three-tenths of 1 'per cent. •hall the Present Pelley Contipue? For years Ue policy of New Jersey la this respect has met with tbe approve! ot the people and has received the Indorsement of both great political partlea. Shall we. then, continue our present fiscal system or shall ws tax the people for the support of our state government, our courts of Justice, our educational and humanitarian Institutions, our prisons and good roads? There la little doubt that the public prefers the present method rather than a system that would compel them to pay the present stale Income from their own pockets. Why this query? If this policy Is to be continued we must preserve tbe present sources of revenue as well as add new ones. We cannot maintain our revenues by destroying their source. We tax the business companies that Incorporate In our state A policy of taxation la not consistent with s policy of destruction. Tou cannot tax what you have destroyed or what you have driven from you. Tbe Incorporations In one stele for ten months of last year show an active cat* I tel of mias.soo. in another of PSl.m. no. In another t2K.162.700. in New Jersey HU.IO.C ' Our state Is. therefore, by no means attracting all of the great moneyed Interests seeking art teles of incorporation in addition to this, the recommsndatkma of tbe department of commerce and labor are the preliminary steps toward national Incorporation, when capital win seek the protection of federal law rather than deal with forty-five different states All these Influences threat en the revenue of New Jersey. As her representatives we should take cognisance sf these tendencies end devise such leg Islatlon aa will protect the Interests of our taxpayers. Unsound legislation, for revenue only, should never be SBCoara. but honest legislation which safeguards the lights of the public and thereby attracts capital and enterprise and produces increased Income Is New Jersey's aim. New Jersey dose not compete lx any race for revenue between states where the Inducement to Incorporation Is laxity of law. Tbe conservative character of her Institutions, tbe honesty of her legislators. tbe unimpeachable Integrity of her courts and the high standing of her bar. the fact that property and vested Interests be safely Intrusted to her hands, are inducements that have brought capita! to this state One of the business companies that filed Its articles of Incorporation here paid the state treasury for that service alone 0.000 and has since been paying us annually *7,000 This same company could have gone to another state, secured a more liberal charter under tax taws for lees expense and have less In New Jersey by paying sum of OO. Nor is It revenue oor state derives from these
