on international matters, and
in a vivid and rational manner,
after reviewing the wonderful
development OF our country and
the growth Of the Anglo Saxon

Of our own country and the great

and the possibilities that now
lie at our door in a commercial
way in the countries of the Pa

panied by a corresponding
growth IN intellectual and moral

Gov. Pingree, CT Michigan, in his
message urges that railroads and other
corporations be brought under the gen
ersl tax laws instead Of being assessed
upon their gross earnings "a at present.
He recommends the rePealiug of the
special charters of the Michigan Central
and Detroit. Grand Haven and M.lSau-
kee Railroads.. 90 as TO bring them under
the general tax laws.
He fAvors amoderste income tax mp
on all incomes above e1 coo.
The progress made by trusts in recent
years alarms the Governor. He urges
that Congress take this matter in hand
stats Legislatures. he says. are poN 'less,
because corporations would simply be
be driven irom.one State to another by
State legislation.
Gov. Pingres finds fault with the Nc
kinley administration, saying the war
was precipitAied by the clamor OF an
unscroupllocs press, with the co-opera-
alton OF equally unseroupulous politician,
who hoped the excite ment ard hysteris
OF war would distract the popular mind
from the abuses OF their misgoyera-
ment."
