TRENTON, Jan. Ex-Governor Forts
inaugural message, presented to the
Legislature today, is as follows:
Gentlemen of the Senate and General AS
sembly:
Called by the people OF my native
State to assume the high office OF
chief executive, I have, in your pres
ence, taken the oath of office, and now
enter upon the performance Of the
duties with a profound sense of their
responsibility.
I'm a republic, no greater confidence
can be bestowed by ones fellow cit
liens, than to be chosen by them to
represent their interests, under the
form of government which they have
established, in the making and execu-
ton of their laws. My duties are en-
tered upon with a steadfast belief In
the God of our fathers. and that He
rules over the destinies of men and
governments.
my predecessor. with an ability and
skill peculiarly his own, has presented
to you, in his message, submitted the
past week. a full review of u State
finances, and has epitomized existing
conditions in the departments and in
stitutions of the State.
II shall, therefore, only discuss, in as
brief and business like a way as I
can, a few of the questions, which, to
my mind, were settled by the people
in the last election, and bring to you
some suggestions that commend them
selves to me as worthy Of legislative
action.

10 MUNICIPALITIES RESPOND
TO JOINT TRUNK SEWER CALL

p~oIluting the river. These a~ppropria-
tions. aggregate $4,000. It is the inten-
ton of the commission to proceed as
rapidly as possible with the task OF
mapping the district and preparing
estimates of cost of the necessary work.
Within ninety days after the reports
of the engineers ire in the hands of
the commission, and the preparation OF
estimates, the municipalities must de-
eide what they are going to do about
pollution. If at the end of that time
at least two agree t the trunk sewer
to intercept the drainage into the river
and carry it out to sea, the commission
in it's report says that work will start
within another ninety days. Those
that do o. enter into the trunk sewer
agreement must provide some other
means of preventing pollution before
the date fixed as the limit by law.

county committee, the Frank o. Briggs

The men carried ane and were re-

Among those who j%ourneyed to see
their favorite made ruler of the State
were some of the old war horses" who
have c%ampaigned actively before the
Governor took more than a birdseye
view of politics.
1t was the original intention to meet
in Republican headquarters in Wash
ington street and leave on the special
train at $3.50 a. M, but, Chairman Dali
rymple found that he could not mar
shall his forces in time, and forty min
utes grace was granted the tardy ones.
The Oranges were well represented in
the gathering, and Newark sem all the
heads of her financial departments, Tax
Receiver Robert l.. Ross, City Treas
urer Albert S. Gunther, Comptroller ].
Harry Bachelor and City Auditor

Because the SNOWY customs of former
years have been changed and the pa
rading and redfire eliminated, the usual
bands did not accompany the delega-
tons. There was one exception, how
yer. The Frank o. Briggs Club men,
bers marched down from headquarters
to the depot to martial music.
Among those at the station were
former Mayor Henry M. Doremus, Wal

MOTOR VEHICLES.

."At the present time the motor vehicle
laws are administered in connection with
the office u the Secretary of State. +
1.-THE use of these machines Is becoming
80 general, the number of them is so great
(the licenses exceeding 25,0O0, and the
revenue under a changed license system
would be so large that this should be a
department by itself.
THE enforcement of the automobile laws
is demanded by the travelling public. A
very large percentage of the automobile
drivers are careful, but there are some
who are not.
IF the present automobile law is too
stringent it should be amended. A speed
of twenty miles an hour in many places
is not excessive; in fact, 1t may be said
to be quite moderate, without misstating
the truth; while, in other places a speed
of twelve miles an hour is more. rapid
than these machines hould be permitted
to go. But. whatever the law may be, 1t
should be enforced.
There should be sufficient officials in the
department of motor vehicles to see that
1t is enforced, and the penalty for the vio-
lation of the law should be more severe.
THE returns from this department, on
the basis Of an increased license fee,
would give it as lacge a revenue as is de-
rived from any other department of the
state, anu ] snoulu not DC suEpi'seo sse
revenue, within a year. on a reasonable
horsepower license fee, would exceed three
hundred thousand dollars. The pen OF
conducting this department probably would
not reach 5 per cent. OF the entire revenue
received. and its efficiency, under a. COM
missioner. could be made very much greater
than at present.
New Jersey has the finest roads Of
State in the Union, and, in proportion to
her territory, more than any other state.
We must do everything TO increase the
number OF miles of these admirable public
highways. and to maintain them after
they are constructed, and this department,
| properly managed. will be a most eff
aid In securing the revenue by which the
State, road commissioner can maintain
these roads in good. repair.
