1t has already been stated that the
electric motor has displaced about
$4,000 horses in n year in the
street railway service. In cities
where the electric railway Is In gen.
eral use livery stables are going out
of the business and private families
are giving up the Use of carriages,
partially because of the facilities for
rapid transit and particularly for the
reason that it is not pleasant to be
passed by the swiftly moving cars,
especially when the risk OF a runaway
must be also considered. II there lisa

now appears probable, there will be a

den. The lard now devoted to his
support may be utilized for other pur,
poses. The competition of the cleo

significant.

THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE.
STATE FINANCES.

Wednesday, January 6, 1892,
Governor jackson sent his mes
sage to the General Assembly. 1t
is quite lengthy and makes pam
plet of 40 pages. 1t opens with a
statement of the financial condition
of our State. The total amount
available in the Treasury for the
fiscal year 1891, was 50, 494, 414.23.
The total disbursements during the
same period were, 1858, 1893,
leaving balance in the Treasury.
September 80, 1891, of s541 $3.50. 30.
There has been a net reduction of
the debt of the State since Sept.
80, 1890, of s724,17O.77. The
interest required to be paid by the
State has been reduced during
Governor Jackson's administration
from s521, S36.3s to s330,276 80
making an annual saving of s221,-
5000. The Governor says the
Treasury in is such condition as
to warrant n considerable reduction
in the tax rate. OF the l13 cents
State tax 10t cents are for the sup
port of public schools. Leaving
the school tax unchanged the Gov
ernor thinks there could be q net
reduction of four cents in the tax
rate, making 133 instead of the
present rate. The Governor ex-
plains the reduction in the debt as
follows:
This reduction has been made
almost entirely by the purchase,
redemption and exchange of the
matured obligations of the State.
Since the last session of the Gener-
al Assembly, six several and dis
tinct loans owned by the State have
matured, aggregating the sum of
s970, $685.. The condition of the
treasury was such that the treasury
officers were enabled to call in these
debts for exchange and redemption,
and they have the greater portion
of the certificates that represent
these debts now in the sinking
funds. BY these transactions the.
have taken from the debt statement

In the issue of the BEACON, of
the 9TH instant, we reported the

the Maryland Legislature saying
that the officers then agreed upon
would be punctually elected. 1t

of Montgomery was chosen temper
airy president, the Senators were
sworn in and the permanent organ
ization was affected By electing the
officers agreed upon by the Demo-
cratic caucus. Senator Hayes
nominated Edward Lloyd, of Talbot

twenty-one votes were cast, Mr..
Posey receiving two. Among the
nominees of the Republican caucus
for officers of the Senate were !;
Daniel Z. Graves, of Leonardtown
for reading clerk, and James K.

for doorkeeper. Like Mr.. Posey
they were mot in it,

all of the six per cent. interest bear
ing indebtness and only s2O6, $780,

bearing debt now remains out
standing"
The Governor pays his respects
to the Baltimore & Ohio railroad
in very vigorous language and wants
some way devised to make it pay
taxes on the recent large increase in
its stock.
THE ARCHER DEFALCATfoN.
The Governor transmits the Leg
islative committees report on the
Archer defalcation and says, "the
committee advert with what / feel
to be undue severity upon my fail
ure to discover Mr.. Archer's defal-
cations. / do not find however,
that / omitted any official act which
my predecessors had performed.
. Possibly if ! had acted
under the impression that Mr..
Archer was dishonest, his frauds
might have been detected few
months earlier than they were, but
trusted him implicitly-relied on
him thoroughly; and it is my great
misfortune that | was deceived pre-
cisely as many Of our most vigilant
and experienced bank officers and
business men were."
TOBACCO INSPECTIONS.
The Governor is gratified at the
success Of his plans in regard to the
Tobacco warehouses. In pursuance
to his recommendations the Legis-
lature of two years ago passed an
act reducing the number of ware
houses with the result that the sys-
tenn is no longer burden upon the
State but has paid all its expenses
and then tnrned into the State
Treasury $40, S36.3s. "This," says
the Governor, demonstrates fur
ther fact which should interest those
engaged in the cultivation of tObac-
CO. As the State ought not to ask
any revenue from inspection further
than to make the system self-sus-
tanning, with the return of large
crops like those which were former
ly grown in the tobacco growing
counties of our State, the charges
for inspection can be reduced with
safety without effecting the eflicien-
cy of the system.
OYSTERS.
The Governor complains that the
Gull law which he recommended two
years ago was so amended by the
Legislature. as to greatly impair its
efficiency. This law, he thinks,
properly amended will greatly in
crease the supply. He thinks the
time for taking oysters with scoops
should be limited to November / i,
and that all licences should expire
