WITH very little display, but with any
amount of enthusiasm, Hon. Edward G..
stokes was, on Tuesday, inaugurated
Governor of New Jersey. Other Gov
ernors have been indicted into office, but
the state has never had a chief executive
with such an advance knowledge of its
need and the courage to see that those
needs are given the consideration that will
lnure to the benefit of the commonwealth.
The inaugural address of Governor Stokes
was an exhaustive paper, treating in a
comprehensive and thorough manner
every topic of interest to the people of
the state The questions of revenue and
taxation were dealt with at great length.
New Jersey is free from debt and has no
state tax. While part of the money used
for state expenses is derived from incor-
poration fees, the Governor wants it dis.
tinctly understood that New Jersey is not
IN race for revenue with states where
laxity of law is the inducement to cor
porations to locate. "Unsound legislation,
for revenue only" he said, SHOULD never
be encouraged, but honest legislation
which safeguards the rights of the public
and thereby attracts capital and enterprise
and produces increased income, is New
Jerseys aim" He recommended the ap-
pointment of a commission to review the
Incorporation acts.
The demand that there be a change in
the plan of assessing railroad property
was given much attention, and the Gov
ernor made several suggestions for meet
ing this question.
On municipal taxation Governor Stokes
said the steadily growing increase in
municipal expenditures has prompted
many citizens to conceal their taxable
property or put it into non taxable forms.
He suggested that this evil could be
avoided by taxing all property at its real
value. thus reducing the rate, and to give
protective guarantee by having State
law nix the maximum rate at, say, $1.70
on the hundred, or lower, if possible.
New Jerseys forestry resources received
mare than passing mention. As the Gov
ernor said. there are thousands of acres of
land in New Jersey. part of it mere
brushland, part of it abandoned and
waste, all of it unsightly, and all capable
of growing trees that would beautify the
landscape, afford attractive driveways,
furnish places of recreation for the well
and health resorts for the sick, and be a
SOurca of inooma RI o,r commonwealth
Much of this land can be purchased for
81 an acre, and in some cases can be
obtained for taxes"

If confidence will bring victory TO
Murphy then the contest is as good as
decided, The aspirant for champion
shin honors from Harlem thinks he
will win to q certainty. He conoenes
the fact that Attell is q scientific
boxer, bu' so much reliance does he
place On his ability to out punch the
Californian that he figures on getting
in the winning blow early in the fioht.
Murphy is in the best possible CON
ditlon, and il he fails 10 make coed is
