hey could DO which would In any way meet
he expectations they had aroused.
We came iA.sst promising the millennium;
rot saying We cosld remove all the issQpali-
les which have existed on this earth since
bur skin-ciau ancestors came out of thsir
.aves. but bent upon doing what il - lsy
10 tighten TO Goms extent the burden Of IN
Justice; to make esaditiens q nttie fsirsr,
little mere eeuAl. In conssQusnce. We new
have put upon the statute books for tie
irst time In New York's history laws which
make the heritage Of the rich man pay a
toll to the state before passing
10 HE heir; laws which make corporations
pay to the state fer the pSiyilegss they have
ana hnally, . law which insurss
that the frapshiss holders who have re.
ceived their franchises from the pubic shall
pay the fun ana just amount which the
privilege We have riveA them entities us to
receive from them.
Injustice Rsmedisd.
The iiheritancs tax. the corporation tax,
the franchise tax. are enc and all our handl-
work; the hanoiwork of eur Sarty; Of our
party ~ II 10 now, A. I appeal to you for Il
now; and they represent the Arst great at.
tempt that has been made in New York
state to meet the new conditions caHsed BY
the upgrowing Of great oorporstipns the e.
ploitatioo Of municipal franchises. In each
instance. and especially In passing the fran
chiss tax, In which had the honor as gov.
ernor to play a certain part, We had to face
the opposition Of the great and wealthy cor
porations; Of those very corporatiens which
our opponents delight to describe a. the
money power. We disrsgardsd their opposi-
ties because W. thought them wrong, Just
as fearIessy a. we would have champloned
them II we had thought them right. We
did no injustice. We simply remsdied in
Justice.
What We premise Is what We have act
ually done in New York. not only as re-
CARDS corporations, but as regards labor
legislation. Our sppoeents II New York
promised very much, but Al that they prom
lsed It was Impossible to do, and - they
did nothing.
It has been the Republican constitutional
convention. the Republican legislatures and
the Republican executives to whom nine
tenths Of the best labor laws put upon the
statute books Of New York state have been
due. We abolished the contract labor sys-
TEN; We established inspection Of factories
and the bureau Of labor statistics; the eight
nour iaWs ths law pFoViuD8 Ior th0 aUSatuou
Of sweat shops; in short, every labor meas.
ure has been initiated and put through by
US. At best, our opponents have followed
In our footsteps, and often. as was the case
last year. when both branches of the lesis.
lature and the executive were In OUT hands.
the whole work has been done by U.S. The
