dition Of his affairs" He adds:
! have, therefore determined to place at once

iSfy the so-called deficit, and then at leisure go
over my accounts for explanation OF the
condition which led to this report. 1t may be
asked, why do l not examine my accounts be-
fore complying with this report; my answer
is that public confidence in official must not
be shaken nor kept in suspense. l must comply
with this report in the first instance however

plain and point out the of this examina-

Mr.. Randolph charges that any shortage in

increased business Of this county has long since
outgrown' Mr.. Randolph is a Democrat and
owns large grocery business here.

FOR IOWA e-CENT FARE.
Governor Cummins Also Recon-
mends Franchise Tap Lac.

Des Moines. Iowa. Jan. 14.-Governor Cum
minis In his message TO the Legislature to-day
urged thoroughgoing reform in the methods
OF nominating candidates for Office. The plan
OF unregulated caucuses at conventions. he
said, had been long tried, and the defects dis
covered were manifest that there was uni
versal demand for something better. He rec
ommends the passage OF a primary law covering
all elective Offices, state, county, municipal or
district, and included Senators of the United
States.
He urged that the railroads be required to
carry passengers for two cents a mile, and
that the railroad law be amended TO con-
fer upon the state commission as complete
power to establish a schedule OF joint freight
rates, embracing all railroads and all triffic, as
rates over single lines. AS to demurrage, he
suggested legislation that will create sufff-
Client motive in both carriers and shippers TO do
their full duty.
A law should be passed, he says, prohibiting
corporations from making contributions for po-
litical purposes, and he declared that the time
has come for an annual franchise corporation
tax.
The Governor attacks professional lobbyists
saying that a lobbyist is a man who wishes TO
secure the passage OF a measure which he him
self knows is not for the general welfare OF
the state and subverts all other thoughts TO his
desire to wilma man who makes arrangements
for the trading OF votes among legislators. He
says something should be done TO root out this
class of people.
