be UP for reelection The candidacy
of Mr.. Warren T. Sammis, of Edge

legal and business attanments, is con
coded to be highly desirable, is of
especial Importance at a time when
many thousands of dollars are to be

CATION of state departments which was
begun recently by Governor Harmon was
aided by the appropriation of $4,000. In
addition the Senate adopted the Beatty
resolution providing for a legislative in
quiry by a commission of four into all de-
partments. If this resolution passes the
House there will be two investigations in
progress The governor will devote his
time largely to probing what he holds to
be evidence of illegal collection of interest
on state funds by state treasurers and of
graft in state purchases. while the legis-
lators may confine their efforts largely
to examining into the grabbing of state
lands by corporations and the alleged ac-
ton of state officers in giving only part
of their time to state duties.
Governor Harmon in his message took
stand for a state taxation commission and
for taxation REFORM more advanced than
the attitude of any recent executive. Pos
sibly his most advanced demand was for
the extension of the theory of taxing all
public service corporations on the basis
of market value of stocks.
